Celebrity Encounters
One of mine is with Jay Leno.
I was standing on the balcony outside my catering office on a smoke break and there was a model T Ford parked in the parking lot. Everyone that walked by stopped to look in and check out the car.
I look across the parking lot and see Jay Leno walking out of the grocery store. He looks up at me and says Hello. I didn't know what the heck to say to Jay Leno so I just said...."Your car gets a lot of stares"
He says..."Thanks, I am sure you get a lot of stares too"
Anyone else have a Celebrity hit on them? :laugh:

My first celebrity sighting was Erik Estrada back in 1993 at FAO Schwartz! I was a nanny. I was like blink.gif "It's Ponch!!!!!"
Since then I've seen a few soap stars, followed Harry Connick Jr. around a mall, got hit on by Jeff Anderson at a "movie screening" in Greenwich that Pete was covering as the editor of the weekly paper "The Greenwich Post". Met Larry King and SAW Sydney Poitier at a benefit dinner thing in LA that Pete and I went to with Pete's dad. Also met Michael Milken (the crook) that day too.
And I had a conversation with Stephanie Seymour (the supermodel), in Greenwich at the Greenwich Academy when I was a nanny.
Umm, I also saw Diana Ross three times in Greenwich. Once a the grocery store.
And I saw Brendan Fraser at the Greenwich Diner.
Hmm, thinking if there are more.0 -

When Sissy Spacek and Kevin Kline were filming the movie Violets are Blue (I know, I wouldn't have heard of it either unless the following happened), my dad was asked to use his commercial fishing boat in the background just leaving the harbor. One of the perks was the family got to meet them. Nothing much other than that happened in my small little town while I was there as far as celebrities go, although Richard Gere and Julia Roberts did also shoot a movie there years later, but I had left by then.0

Eddy Money signed autographs on the hood of my car! I sat in my car with my foot on the brake...didn't even get out or put it in park...just sat and watched...besides, his wife was with him!0

Cool thread!
Back when I was about 24, my girlfriend and I went out to eat in a nice little restaurant in Toronto.
We were having a good time, sipping on our Mango Daiquiris when Mario Van Peebles walks over to our table.
He introduces himself and asks if he could get us anything.
My first reaction was like "wow, times must be tuff for him". :laugh: But then our waiter came and he told our waiter that he was just making sure that we were happy.
Rumor was going around that he had been to that restaurant several times that week with a different woman on his arms each time.
Stay tuned because someday I'll have a celebrity encounter with Donnie Wahlberg.

I used to live in the same apartment complex with Tim Reid - my brother and his son were buddies. Also, Elvis ate at my grandparents' home back in the 50's (before he was "Elvis!")0

Long story, but I was on The Queen Latifah Show when she had her talk show so ...I met her. After we filmed our segment we talked to her a little while on stage and she told me I reminded her of someone but she couldn't remember who!! lol On that same show she had Brian McKnight on and I met him backstage while we were both waiting to get our makeup done. He was super nice!! (didn't hit on me though!! lol I was 16 at the time!!) I met Mary Tyler Moore at a Juvenile Diabetes Convention in Washington DC, she was super nice also! The current Miss USA was there too and I met her but I don't even remember her name! It was about 6 years ago! I am trying to think of anyone else. Does one of the Blue Man Group guys count?? :huh: Anyway one of them walked up to me but they dont talk!! lol0

I took a flight with John Bolton and walked around with John Ashcroft and Tommy Franks for a while.
I met Roger Staubach in the hall of my office the other day.0 -

Ooo, if you do, can I meet Marky Mark?0 -
Haha Max...
I stayed at a hotel in Santa Monica one time while Tom Berenger was living there. My mom and I didn't recognize him, but he was looking at us like we should. We were talking to the conceirge and he came by to pick up his mail wearing sweats and sunglasses (inside, of course).
Said hello to Dave Thomas at a restaurant in Boca Raton FL one time. He seemed so dang sweet.
Before Gavin Degraw made it big, he was opening for a band in North Myrtle Beach at the House of Blues, and his bass player was all about me and my friend. He kept trying to talk us into "paryting" with them after the show.0 -
Sure, but it will probably have to wait until Donnie and I are married. :ohwell:0

I got nothing! My husband (Marc) however, grew up with Chad Kroger from Nickelback.
They used to play a game called cat and mouse. Marc is a few years younger than Chad (he is the same age as my sister in law) so Marc and his friends used to throw potatoes (?) at Chads car when he drove by (they were so bad). Chad and his friends would jump out of his car and chase them and then steal their smokes. Kind of a cool story!
We lived in Hanna (where they are from) when we were first dating and we lived in one of Chads old houses. I was cleaning one day and found a picture of him drinking and smoking in my very kitchen. How cool is that?
But no, I have never met anyone famous. Missed being in the music video 'photographs' by one day! All my friends are however (dancing on the car in the field by the old train station).0 -
That Jay Leno story is so cute!0
-
Oh and I saw that comedian SINBAD, remember him?? LOL!
Saw him at JFK airport.
And I saw "chicken little" (the kid from American Idol who got that nickname) on a flight to LA and on a flight back from LA last Summer, I saw Malin Ackerman (from Heartbreak Kid, 27 dresses, etc)0 -

Yes. And he had to stand outside at the outdoor baggage claim in Burbank like everyone else...in 100 degrees...while they took forever to get our bags!

I also met smokin hot George Clooney out to dinner in the city!! he is soo pretty in real life :laugh: I think that is all!!0 -
Over Christmas I was on a flight from Minneapolis to Dallas with Raven Symone. She was in some huge baggy sweats and no make up and can I just say, her skin was flawless! I stood right next to her at baggage claim and no one met her at the airport, I thought that was strange. Of course no one met me either
but she's Olivia from the Cosby Show and she's That's So Raven! Someone pick that poor girl up from the airport! Sheesh! 0 -
okay so I know my Mom will not tell this story... so I gotta spill it for her:
she was in Hollywood, and a friend was a makeup artist, so she got to visit the set of... whatever.
And she sees Andy Garcia walking towards her. She smiles, and he smiles back, and she waits till he passes by and she reaches down and grabs her crotch and makes a "oh baby" face, just as he looked back to take a last glance.
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
He totally caught her!
I was called on the phone by the NKOTB. They were at the Grammys, my aunt and uncle were in the recording industry so they had tickets, and my aunt had a big old clunky brick of a cell phone, so she waited until she could meet them and had them call me on the phone.
I got the autograph of Tone Loc, also because of Uncle's recording industry connections...
There's more, but those are the most exciting ones-0 -
OK - this is going back a while, but my friends and I went to see Night Ranger when we were 15 or 16. On the way back from the concert, we saw their tourbus turning into a local hotel. The cool mom of one of my friends was driving us and followed the bus. We got out and got their autographs. They actually asked us to go to their room and party. We didn't go because the freind's mom was waiting. Cool at the time - really gross to think about it now.0

And my friend is good friends with Justin Gaston (Miley Cyrus's boyfriend) So I met him outside of a pool hall one night. *drool*
He's so pretty.
And I also partied with the cast of CSI-NY a few times. Gary Sinese (Lt. Dan from Forrest Gump) lent me his umbrella and his entourage on a rainy day.0 -

Oh and Cameron Diaz is not as tall as she looks on screen (and she has acne scars).
She is still a hottie but it made me feel a litlte better about my flaws.
She is super sweet as well which makes her even more attractive.
Also, she has her own personal "lighting" person that goes on set with her because one eye gets droopy when she is tired.
Kate Winslet...is absoultey a natural beauty. She is gorgeous in person.0
