    During the last season of LOST he visited with his niece!
    I threatened to kick people out if they asked him 1 question about the show!

    He was my favorite on Lost. When I went to visit my sister in Hawaii, we stumbled on the set of Lost while trying to find a more private beach. It was before the first season was released so of course I had to go home and watch. lol

    R u a film maker?

    No, I have a little sidejob/hobby reviewing movies and interviewing adult stars for a pop-culture website.

    I want that kind of side job. Let me know if you need an assistant. ;)


    Not from CA but go there often. Think I have seen some out of the corner of my eye,but no one that made me get too excited.
    Have met a few musicians back in my younger days, but more excitingly I met Alex Trebek at a geography conference. I'm hoping like hell to meet LeVar Burton at another one in Austin, but that's not looking as likely.

    The best I can muster is Vanilla Ice during the Ice, Ice Baby days. He was a late night patron at the restaurant where I waited tables. He tried to hit on me. Um, No thanks.

    Burt Bacharach when i was seven yrs old. i used to go riding horseback with Vincent Sardi (of Sardi's in NYC) in the 1960s, flirted with Robert Plant at a Chicago hotel brunch in 1985, Steve Martin in 1976 and many times again between 1985-1990 when he would come to a little health food store for shakes in Santa Barbara where he lived (i did too). I met tommy lee jones at a dance at the Polo hall of fame and museum in 2002 in FLA. He had a VERY red nose and was drinking heavily! Cathy Moriarity (from 'Analyze That') at a wedding. they are just folks, but it is still pretty fun to meet them.

    Many years ago I did a lot of business travel and met a lot of celebrities at airports. A few that I can remember ... Arnold Schwarzenneger, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Scotty Pippin, Goldie Hawn, Hulk Hogan, William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, Paul Hornung, Brooke Shields, Marty Allen, Jerry Clower and the entire band, Journey. When you travel 150,000 - 200,000 miles per year by air you meet a lot of people.

    I met Johnny Unitas when I was about 10 years old and used to see Pee Wee Reese a lot when I was a kid in Louisville, KY.
  • I met John Travolta on the street locally(southport nc) while he was making Domestic Disturbance, I was talking crap about how he was probably a jerk, he walk up behind me and over heard. He was pretty cool about it made some jokes.

    LOL!! I work in film. So, yes. Quite a few. Actors and directors. Though my confidentiality agreements still bind me from mentioning who, I will mention a young, blonde male actor, most known work would be in The Notebook. ;D

    I live in michigan, years ago city high came and performed and at the time my best friend, her dad got us in because he worked at the venue and with the radio station people that were there and got us in, and we got to go back stage and they gave us both a poster and a tshirt and stuff and signed it and let us get pictures taken with them. It was pretty cool at the time. But that is all.. haha
    oh and once when I was 12 I was flying to my dads house in FL for the summer and seen lil john walking (The guy taking me from flight to flight, was like whoa that is lil john!)... haha... weirddd!
    That being said also I've seen jeff daniels. He came to a few of my (school) volleyball games... ONLY because we were playing his daughters team though. lol
