    I have personally met and/or had sight of quite a few celebs (more local then international famous though)

    I met 2 while working at MC Yuk's as a teen. I served Jeannie Becker (Toronto-Fashion TV), and Ed Robertson walked over my freshly mopped floor lol (Barenaked Ladies weren't famous yet, at that point they'd made an appearance on Speaker's Corner...that's how I recognized him)

    I met Tricia Cast (Nina Webster on Y&R) at a mall visit, and won a backstage pass (pissed off ALOT of older gals - I was a youngin). She was sooooo nice!

    I got to get a sig and hand shake from the Monkee's Micky Dolenz.

    My sister and I saw a couple of The Kids In The Hall taped live, so we got to shake hands with Scott Thompson and Bruce McCullough outside while waiting. AWESOME TIME we had, great show!

    The lead singer of Aqua came over to the window at MuchMusic to play with my son (was 1.5yrs old)

    and....I almost got to meet Hugh Laurie at a BFTV performance. The lady in front of me got the last signature. I still had amazing seats though, and will hopefully get to meet him this Feb when he comes back with the band. I have front row tickets!! :happy:
    He's been a source of inspiration for me, so I am crossing my fingers for a sig (maybe even a pic! lol) :blushing:

    I have talked to and/or am being followed by quite a few celebs on Twitter.
    Jim Carrey
    Stephen Fry
    Scott Grimes
    Kelsey Grammar
    ...that's all I can think of off hand....although there is more.

    I flipped off William Shatner!

    I also rode in an elevator with Gabriel Byrne, sat next to Fabio at a dinner function (for like 10 mins.) and took paula Adbul's deposition.

    But I am really proud of the whole Shatner thing.

    Barry Manilow

    Several years ago I went to a book signing and shook his hand then I jokingly asked him to write "To my darling Betty . . ." and he laughed and said "Oh, you want a love letter, huh?" Then my son and I went to his concert in Seattle.

    This is definetely known only in the Balkans, but i have dated Marinko Prga for a while 5 years ago, a pretty famous actor down there.

    I sang for both the former and the current presidents of Croatia. And the Hungarian president too, and he also winked me during a concert. That was awesome! :-)
