    Muhammad Ali walked right by me in the airport. My aunt told me to go talk to him, but I didn't want to bother him.

    I met Ricky from the Trailor Park Boys on the street outside of a bar on my 21st birthday and got a picture with him. Got Sidney Crosby's autograph when he played in the QMJHL (he was obviously going to become a phenom in the NHL, so we jumped on the chance when we got it haha). Stood a few ppl over from Joel Plaskett at a Wilco concert. I am clearly Canadian! haha..Oh, I also saw Darrell from the Office at the casino, but we didn't talk to him since he really didn't look like he wanted to be disturbed.

    Molly Ringwald, Hugh Jackman, and Jewel. The first two after their performances on Broadway and Jewel after one of her concerts. They were all really nice and down to earth. Let me tell you, Hugh Jackman is even hotter in real life! Those eyes....sigh

    Geddy Lee
    Alex Lifeson

    So jealous! Would love to meet all three of the Holy Triumvirate, but I know Neil doesn't do a whole lot of "meet and greats".
    I'm also a fan of George R.R. Martin, so meeting him would be cool as well.

    hmmmm. almost got in a fight with the lead singer of Rancid, hung out with Chino from Deftones. called Ben Affleck a ***** at Sundance, Grinded with Cuba Gooding Jr. in Park City. Sacked Steve Young in a Frisbee football game. Ran into M&M before he was famous. went on a double with Bert McCrackin the singer from The Used. I ran into more than I can mention at The Sundance film festival and in park city.

    I've met or ran into a lot I guess, some I can't remember.

    My uncle is a yoga teacher in L.A

    He was having one of his yoga classes during the evening and Joy Fanning takes them.

    I got to go with him one of these evenings but just brought along my knitting while he taught. My cousin decided to stay home and go swimming with her friends which she regrets because this evening Dakota came with Joy.

    I sat by the sidewall with Dakota (who coincidentally also brought her knitting - she was making a scarf for Elle!) and knit with her the entire time. She's super funny and really giggly actually. We talked more after the class because we had to be quiet during the session but it was great to meet her!

    When I worked at a movie theater I served Atreyu popcorn. Then when I was in box office I carded Pharrell of NERD. No idea who any of them where until after the fact. Oops?

    LOL...I remember when I met Stevie Wonder. I was his green room server before he performed. When him and his family were leaving after his concert, he said to his kid, "Hey, can I drive home tonight?" and he busted out laughing...his kid just rolled his eyes, but I was cracking up...I thought it was hilarious!
