    I saw John Leguizamo doing an interview in the lobby during a Latino film festival at a theater I used to work at in San Diego.

    It was every bit as thrilling as it sounds.

    Well I am envious! They are one of the most amazing bands ever, especially live. My husbands anniversary gift was to see them live a few years ago :)

    I've met quite the number of hockey players from the NHL.
    Kris Roe from the ataris, we browsed records together. Hunter and Jade from AFI. The band Finch and Thursday....
    Oh I am related somehow to Michael Fishman... DJ from Roseann but I have only met him once and it was at a funeral when I was like 5 lol.

    Oh boy...


    5: Harry Connick Jr. - Again, security. He was pretty cool and more energy then a 9 year old boy.



    Jealous! I love him! Saw him in concert from a great distance!

    My two significants are;

    Alan Rickman, yup, handsome Severus Snape, but a long time before Potter days, and before days of camera phones.

    David Tennant, gorgeous ex Time Lord! (In hs time lord costume with a big puffa jacket over it!)

    Alice Cooper - his bus broke down just outside of the town I grew up in. I was 16, I went to the gas station at lunch to get a drink and some chips and got in line behind his roadies, and they were taking FOREVER. I was quietly standing there being polite and he came in and was like "Let the kid get in front of you guys" I turned around and went "OMG... you... you are Alice Cooper!!" and then he said "yes I am and you are" and I told him my name and he gave me a signed photo... it was pretty nifty.

    Storm Large - she is an absolute sweet heart.

    Danny Lohner – He was really awesome and at the time I had no idea who he was until he said "Oh **** I need to go get on stage"... I was like 17 and at an outdoor concert.

    mcchris - if you don't know who his song "Hoodie Ninja" was on a car commercial. He is MC Pee Pants on Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and Hesh Hepplewhite on Sealab 2021. he worked on The Brak Show, and was a writer for Space Ghost: Coast to Coast. He is really an amazing person who donates a lot of money to Cystic Fibrosis.

    Bob McGrath from Sesame street - he comes in yearly to do a televised marathon up here for charity. I got a hug and got to tell him that he was my most favorite human on Sesame street.

    Beverley Mahood - she comes in for the same televised marathon for charity, I personally didn't really like her.

    Brad Johner - met him at the same televised marathon for charity as Beverley Mahood and Bob McGrath - he is a pretty decent guy.

    Rafi - I was a little kid so I really do not remember him, but I still have the autographed record.

    And some of the CFL players - not really a big deal unless you are from Canada I guess lol


    ETA: Oh and Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed... Shannon Tweed is actually really good friends with a friend of mines mom... he calls them Aunt Shannon and Uncle Gene... I only got to meet them because I didn't believe him lol

    I sat next to Tim Allen while eating lunch at Daphne's Greek Cafe in North Hollywood. My friend was like "man, that guy looks a lot like Tim Allen." I shrugged and said, "yeah sort of."

    At the end of our meal, a boy several tables away wandered over to tell Tim Allen he was a huge fan and blablabla. Me and my friend looked at each other like "Oh....cool."
