    I couldn't figure out how to embed a picture so I changed my profile pic. My favorite celeb is Hugh Jackman. This is us backstage at The View where he kissed me on national TV on Nov. 22. That was a dream come true!

    I met Ron White. He was in town doing his comedy thing and I bought VIP passes to meet him and got pictures with him, an autograph and kept the box his scotch bottle was in. :)

    A few wrestlers, Chris Jericho ( we are from the same place), John Cena. Lots of country music artists, probably too many for me to even remember, paul brandt, road hammers, doc walker ( then one of them ended up marring my husbands sister so now he's family), aaron pritchett, and a bunch more. Hinder, NIckelback.

    I was at a hockey game once and we were in a private box, photographers started coming into our box to try and take pics of the people in the next one. I looked over and there was Jordana Brewster who I ran into later in the hall, she is really tiny. There was also one of the baldwins and another girl I think she was in some kung fu movie or something.

    Totally forgot Sean William Scott, Jay Baruchel, and Liev Schreiber I was an extra in the movie Goon that's coming out soon

    I'm from Massachusetts and I've seen Chuck Connors (the Rifleman) before his death at a Legal Seafood restaurant. I've seen Genevieve Gorder and Doug Wilson from TLC's Trading Spaces at our local Home Depot. I've also seen Nia Long (actress) on a plane heading to Savanna, GA. I didn't speak to these celebrities; I just waved and they waved back.

    I've met director Jason Reitman. I've met Florence Griffith-Joyner (track athlete) and her husband, Al Joyner (trainer), before Flo Jo's death and I've met Kofi Kingston (wrestler) and got both their autographs. I've also met and spoke to Tom Welling (Smallville actor.) I ran into Tom on Martha's Vineyard and tried to give him my tour bus ticket because I thought he was the driver. He just chuckled and said, "I don't work here."

    I met Steve from Blue's Clues. :smile:

    OMG! I'm such a dork, but I would love to meet Steve! LOL!

    I had an uncle that was good friends with Mel Gibson (and his parents) back when he was still married to first wife and hadn't gone bat-*kitten* crazy. Anyway, he made an appearance at my uncle's church for Mass and I got to meet him and one of his older daughters. Who by the way was kind of a *****, but I think she was just being guarded. I assume that's something you have to do when you're the offspring of someone that famous.

    I grew up in a really small town in TX so not really a lot of chances to meet famous people.

    I met Steve in Denton, Texas. It was after he left the show and he was touring to promote his album. It was a really tiny bar and he was just standing there so I walked up to him and started talking to him. He is very short, very handsome and was very nice. And contrary to what you may hear about why he wore long sleeves, he was NOT covered in tattoos.

    Orlando Bloom. He was in KY for the premier of Elizabethtown. I have his autograph. It's on a purse. On my counter. Though I don't even like him. I think it's about time I get on eBay. Though I don't think as many girls are falling over him as much as they did a few years ago.
