    Only famous person I ever met was BB King. We went to his concert at a casino and afterwards he strolled around talking to everyone on the casino floor. Very cool and laid back person!

    Santa Claus. He is the only famous person I ever met, but he was very nice. He even let me sit and his lap and tell him what I wanted for Christmas! :wink:

    When I used to work the pool/beach at the Sheraton Waikiki, I met Jessica Love Hewitt. Really friendly and down to earth. She told me to call her "lLove.".

    She's the only that I can remember.

    I have met The Rural Alberta Advantage on 3 different occasions and they are one of my all time favorite bands!
    Ohhh, I love them ... They seem like they would be nice people. I mean, they're from Alberta ...
    I have met the lead singer of the Nationals
    I met the band after a show they did with Clap Your Hands Say Yeah in Vancouver, BC. They were really nice guys, I got their autographs and talked to them about music and stuff. CYHSY invited me backstage and we hung out. They offered me a beer, but I don't drink it. I told them about Architecture in Helsinki (whom I had hung out with the week previous) and by the end of that month they were doing a secret show with them in New York. Pfft, no cred for the guy who told both bands about one another, haha.

    I've met lots of other musicians. I also saw Leslie Nielson outside an apartment complex on Robson St in Vancouver not long before he died. I didn't say anything, I didn't realize it was him ... I wish I would have and had at least said told him how much I loved Spy Hard!

    Ok..... don't be jealous but I got invited to hang out back stage with Carrot Top when I was about 18! hehehe.....he is actually really nice and surprisingly totally ripped....I've also met the heavy metal band Accept and rockabilly band Social Distortion.

    I also spent 4th of July in 2010 at ex-playboy playmate/cyber vixen Cindy Margolis' house.....and it was totally surreal. Not only was she there, but some guy that was in her reality show "seducing Cindy" was there too along with her boyfriend who was hot but brain dead. Either way, they where pretty much fighting for her attention......I was like 9 months pregnant and the last thing I wanted to do was hang with a playboy centerfold by the way. Funny...my hubby didn't seem to mind, lol!

    I met Roger Ebert at a book signing - he signed my VHS copy of Valley Girl. :)
