Who is the most famous person you have ever met??

I met Chris Daughtry when I was 7 months pregnant with my daughter. He is :love: dreamy :love: and I want to meet him again and again and again LOL LOL. Here is a pic from the meeting:

    I used to work at a BBQ/deli place and got to meet/wait on Hank Williams JR several times (He has a lake house near the area) Also he brought Kid Rock in with him a couple times and I got to make him a BBQ sandwich! LOL I thought that it was the coolest thing E-V-E-R! :wink:

    I know Hobo Jim, the hillbilly singer - not sure if anyone outside of Alaska and Arizona knows him.

    Stephan Jenkins and the rest of the Third Eye Blind crew... or 98 degrees. I'm going with Stephan Jenkins simply because I'm pretty sure I'm in love with him. :)

    8 or 9 years ago I saw Ethan Hawk in a bar here in Austin. We didn't actually "meet" but I was only like 8 feet away and there was eye-contact (mostly because I was starring) so I'd say that counts.

    My wife and I invited to Flo-Rida's July 4th party a couple of years back at his house. That man was serving some good food! lol. Also, he truly was one of the nicest guys I've ever met. He'd never met us before but welcomed us to his house made sure we had a good time, took pictures, the whole deal. He was a very gracious host.

    Michael Jordan back when I was still still living in Chicago. Some buds and I were at our favorite watering hole and he walked in(Cigar in mouth) with Ron Harper and Toni Kukoč. Seemed a little inebriated, but he was cool as hell. Posed for a few pics and gave my buddy *kitten* about having a Duke t-shirt on. Good times!

    FAVORITE was Mick Jagger when the Rolling Stones were going to perform at the casino I worked at, he was in the back of the house just tra-la-la-ing along. Mike Myers (no mask), the ever sexy Chris Cornell (Soundgarden) came into the store I was working at with his baby daughter (years ago), apparently I assisted Ciara in buying really tacky clothes at the store I worked at (also in that casino.) I'm a rock fan so I needed one of my coworkers to tell me who she was... and so many other chance sightings.

    Had a buddy meet Chris Cornell backstage when he played a show with Vedder(Temple of the Dog). Said he was cool as *kitten*.

    I have had the chance to meet quite a few. Recently screen legend Angie Di*kinson (had to do that, MFP will censor it) Paul Giamatti, Adrien Brody, Director/Producer Robert Rodriguez, director Nimrod Patel (movie Predator) Casey Studdard(NFL lineman/Houston Texans). Jason Richardson and Lamar Woodley(both came into a bar I worked in Saginaw, MI, that is where they are from) there are others, but those are the major ones I can remember.

    Kevin Costner, his band played where I used to live (didn't go see it lol) but he was grocery shopping at the publix I worked at. It took me a minute to figure out who he was, I was like man he looks familiar lol.

    I've met a few people. I used to work at an ice arena and met Nicklas Lidstrom, Chris Chelios, Cujo, Gordie Howe, and Bobby Hull. Chelios used to come in often cause his kids played there. I've also met the guys from the band MxPx, Good Charlotte, the Get Up Kids, Suicide Machines, and Long Beach Dub All Stars. My sister in law is friends with Joseph Nunez and Horatio Sanz so we hung out with them when I was visting my brother in LA.

    To actually sit, chat and talk - Red Skelton, many years ago. A really nice guy. When working in Deadwood for the Chamber, got to meet several, just briefly - e.g. Oak Ridge Boys, Little Feat - etc.

    You are HILARIOUS and I just love you to pieces!

    Mine is Whitney Houston...and even though "crack is whack", I still love her. :) We were at ESPN Zone in Atlanta. It was when you could still smoke in the bars down there. My mom and I were sitting at the bar when this slim little dark skinned arm reached in front of me for matches and an ash tray. I grabbed it to give to her and about dropped the darn thing when I saw who it was. Very brief words were exchanged, she was asked by a HUGE guy to step into the back room (I'm assuming VIP, and also that it was her bodyguard), and I just sat there stunned...thankfully there was no Bobby in tow with her that night. :)

    When I was 9 or 10 I met Jackie Zeman (Bobbie from General Hospital). Her maid gave me a pair of shoes. lol My Dad owns his own constructions biz - or did, back then - and was working on Jackie's garage. She still sends my Dad Xmas cards every year.
    I also saw Busta Rhymes in a deli in Hollywood. I have a pic of his back - tried to get another pic but his bodyguard told us no. :huh:
    Oh on that same Hollywood trip, we saw Gwen Stefani perform for a late night talkshow, she was doing Hollaback Girl on the street.
    And last but not least :laugh: I met Michael Gross (Dad from Family Ties) at a train station.

    I know, glamorous I know, don't be jealous. :wink:

    I would LOVE to meet Chris Daughtry! That's so cool! My alltime, though, I want to meet the entire cast of Supernatural. I love those people so much. I would love to meet the crew too. My fav show of all time. But, not gonna have a chance I am sure. :grumble:

    My favourite was when I went to Tom Morello's solo gig when I was living in Japan. My friend and I were literally the only two people in the crowd who he could communicate with (it was a tiny club venue in Osaka), so we ended up being the target for his conversations and as he went offstage, he invited us backstage where we hung out with him, shared a few drinks and laughed about language barriers. Great night!
