    A few over the years... Miley Cyrus, Zac Efron, Liam Hemsworth, Mel B (Scary Spice), Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, JK Rowling, Elizabeth Banks, Taylor Swift, Kelly Osbourne, Olly Murs, Katie Price... that's all I can remember off hand. I've also bumped into a few radio DJs from the UK like Chris Moyles etc around London.

    Most of the ones I've met were from when I won tickets to The Hunger Games premiere :)

    There are several current or former NFL players who are alumni of the high school where I've worked for 16 years, and most come back quite often to visit the school and see us faculty members and talk to students, but our most famous "favorite son" is Jamie Foxx (aka Eric Bishop). He sponsors our district's Special Olympics meet every year and also does quite a bit of work with our youth football association each year. He's a good actor, a great singer and piano player, and a pretty nice guy in person.

    My favorite "celebrity" I've met was former Texas governor Ann Richards...I interviewed her for my college TV station back in the day. She was an amazing lady and funny as hell.

    My husband and another couple were in New Orleans for the weekend. We noticed Jason Segal walk in. My husband offered to buy him a drink. He hung out with us for a couple of hours. Super nice guy.

    I play in a charity baseball game each year that Mark Harmon plays in with Rick Sutcliffe, Frank Marshall, and some other former athletes. I've met Little Richard, and I know several pro bowlers (does that really count?). I also have performed with country singer Kellie Coffey. But most importantly.......porn star Jesse Jane lives in my in-laws neighborhood. :bigsmile:

    I "briefly" (at least I considered it "dataing") dated Christopher Pyle- Artimus Pyle's son from Lynyrd Skynyrd.
    Oh, and so I met Artimus while seeing Christopher.
