Name some famous people you've seen in real life

Richard Nixon and Pat Nixon, at a rally in '68.

Joan Rivers, when I guested on her TV program in '93.

Howard Stern, entering the Trump Plaza Hotel in '93.

Rachel McAdams at a spa I used to work at in Toronto. She is so tiny in real life

Dinner next to John Kerry and Teresa Heinz, Pamela Anderson at a bar comes to mind. I travel Go to Los Angeles often, so "famous" people are everywhere, so I can't remember every instant. I also live in an area with many pro basketball players and at least two NFL'ers as neighbors. *flicks collar*
Guess it just depends on where you live and/or hang out as to the amount of famous sightings

Jordan Zimmermann -I pitcher for the Nationals- cook him lunch about 5 times a year.

I've met the queen (not the band, the real Mcoy!) twice!! Once about 7yrs ago when she opened up a special needs classroom at a school I used to work at for special needs children. The second time was in June 2014 when my husband and I were invited to a garden party she has every year at Buckingham Palace. He was given the invitation by the senior executive manager at his work. I've met some famous actors and a few famous singers, but the queen is by far the most prestigious person I've met.

Kiera Knightley and Cheryl Cole in LAX Air New Zealand/Virign lounge, Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds on a Virgin flight from LAX to Heathrow.

wow...crap.. I got nothing.. some of you have been in the right place at the right time...a lot of times.. sounds very exciting to have seen all those people :drinker:

Vince Vaughn - filmed movie in my town last month
Some of the cast of the Walking Dead -(filmed in my town)
Linkin Park - entire band
Slipknot - Entire band
Daivd Draiman - from the band Disturbed
Jacoby Shaddox - lead singer of Papa Roach
Justin Bieber - eww I did it for my daughter lol
Ed Sheeran - also for my daughter won a private concert for about 40 people from radio station
Katy Perry
Anthony Hopkins - one of my favorites so far - also filmed movie near me
Kane Hodder - played Jason Vorhees (major *kitten* by the way)
Greg Nicotero - at Walker Stalker con

I haven't met very many up here in ol' Canada. Though there are lots around in September with TIFF here in Toronto every year. I've working in the restaurant industry for years, so we've had a few in. Eugene Levy, Mary Louise Parker. I served Rachel McAdams in 2006. She came in to the restaurant where I was working because she went to York's theatre program with our GM and was coming by to say Hey! She came in alone and ordered a platter of nachos to herself! Go Rachel!

My fella on the other hand, has a horseshoe up his *kitten*. Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, Steven Tyler, Will Arnette, Ron Jeremy, Edward Furlong. There are more. More impressively, he met Beck in a vintage shop in Kennsington Market, started chatting with him and then spent the afternoon hanging out with him. My favourite? Hanging out with Kurt Cobain backstage at a smaller Toronto bar. Pre-Dave Grohl, pre-Nevermind. 15 people in the audience! Lucky brat. But that's why it happens to him, he's pretty cool about the "famous/celebrity" thing and doesn't give it much ceremony/pomp.

I met Dwayne Johnson when I was younger. He was filming a movie in my town and I got him to sign my shirt...that I have lost. Now I wish I had been older at the time

Billy Zane....he was a d*ck.

We had just saw him perform in the play Chicago on Broadway (i.e. BRIGHT FRIGGEN STAGE LIGHTS). I asked if I could take his picture and he said "no the flash hurts my irises".

<_<

Willie Nelson - His granddaughter and I went to the same small school and we were in many of the same classes. He also filmed a music video and TV movie at my school. I was in both.

Kris Kristofferson - was in the movie Willie Nelson filmed.

George Michael - He and his band came into a restaurant I was at.

Jesse James - He owns a shop here in Austin. I got to meet him there. My mother inlaw went to his shop to buy my husband a T-shirt for his birthday and Jesse offered to show her around and she turned him down . He had no idea who he was so it makes me laugh a bit because I keep thinking most people wouldn't turn him down.

Sandra Bullock - ( before she was married to Jesse James ) she lives / lived in Austin and I saw her at the Salt Lick BBQ.

Unless you are into opera these names will mean nothing lol but they are super famous in the opera world: Jonas Kauffman, Placido Domingo, Rene Pape, Kiri Te Kanawa. Domingo is an idol and I seriously lost my ****.

Whoopi Goldberg
Chris Brown
Travis Trit
Reba Mcentire
Clint Black
Randy Travis

worked at a Casino where they performed/appeared, got to eat with some of them, was only introduced to others

Harrison Ford: Just a random passing on the street. He is not as dashing in real life as on the screen.

Mike Farrell (B.J. Hunnicutt from M*A*S*H) I cooked his Quarter Pounder with Cheese, NO ONIONS, when I worked at McD's during High School. His kids were with him. I think it was during his divorce. He was an unhappy man. Very, Very tall! He signed his grill ticket for me. Later on, some Grape flavored Hubba Bubba Bubble Gum melted on that grill ticket. I was always sad about that.

Pearl Bailey: I met her during my Freshman year of college (1980) at a hotel in Washington DC. We were staying at the same hotel. I met her twice there. The first time was out front of the hotel. She was eating pistachios. Cracking the shells with her teeth! Ouch! The second time I rode the elevator with her. She had just received a dz long stemmed red roses. She asked me if I liked them and if I would like to smell them. I obliged. The didn't smell all that great but they were very pretty and I said so. Nice lady.

Gerald Ford. (U.S. President) This was during Jr. High. I saw him at a speaking engagement. Not very close, but I saw him. I think I was in 7th grade at the time. I was not all the thrilled, either. I would have been more impressed with meeting his son. He was cute!
