-Have u Seen/Talked 2 any Celebrity Be4?-

[CompUser]

This is my favorite MJ joke that I have come up with

THE THRILLER

and...

This proves that MJ is an Alien

(and yes the umbrella is necessary because he will melt w/o it in the UV rays found on earth)

The only celebrity I can recall ever having had a conversation with is Stu "ooo, I could crush a grape" Francis. I know, I'm not very impressive.

Ooh, I don't know. I loved Stu Francis when I was little. For some reason.



As for me, I talked to Bob Mills once. But I didn't know who he was.

(kiddies, close your eyes)

A friend of mine and myself had sex with a now famous porn star in Chicago before she became large in the industry. This was several years ago. Sure, I'll admit it.

 

[w_parietti22]

Steve Balmer, sadly. I've seen Paul Allen. Jamie Moyer (Mariners) (kids go to my school, and I don't know if you have any clue who I'm talking about. )

[Cfg5]

I saw Kobe Bryant at Best Buy, that's about it.

 

[leekohler]

Bruce Willis, many conversations- very nice and friendly man.
Bille Jean King- also very sweet
Jerry Springer- believe it or not, I like him a lot.
Nate Berkus- A former customer of mine at a restaurant I used to manage. Funny thing is, I never knew he was on Oprah til the Tsunami and I saw him on the news. I love Nate. He's a sweetie.
Jimmy Page
Chris Farley
Bill Murray- just as funny in person! He made me laugh until I almost peed myself.
Julie Delpy
Robert Gant (from Queer as Folk)
Chris Connelly (from Revolting Cocks and Ministry)- very cool.
Mario and Melvin Van Peebles
George Will
Tom Peterrson (from Cheap Trick)
Cynthia Plaster Caster- a good friend of mine.
George Wendt (Norm from Cheers)- Got me stinking drunk at a club one night. He wouldn't stop buying me drinks! He was lots of fun.
There are more, but I can't think of them all.

 

[watcher2001]

Lets see. I have met and gotten grafs from the following Trek celebs

William Shatner
Leonard Nimoy
James Doohan
Marina Sirtis
Robert Picardo
Dwight Schultz
Ethan Phillips
Rene Auberjonois

I also got to go to dinner with Tom Hanks, Madonna, Geena Davis and Rosie O'Donnel. (There is another story there, but I will save that for later)

 

[AmericanIdiot12]

uhhhh...oh yah...Nick Green...hes a baseball player for the Devil Rays...he was on the Braves but they traded him for Jorge Sosa a.k.a. the next Pedro Martinez...he lives up the street from me next to jiv3turkey and i saw him pull up in his BMW (EDIT: earlier today) and all i could think is how much the devil rays suck

i also met Jorge Sosa (pic below) at a braves game and got him to sign a dollar bill but i lost it so that might suck when he wins the cy young 7 times in a row and carries the braves to 4 world series championships in a row

and i met Roy Barnes the former gov. of GA in 5th grade...dont like him...he gives too many several-hour-long standardized tests which the rednecks find difficult but everyone else finishes in 30 minutes

 

[mad jew]

I got drunk and married Britney Spears. The worst three hours of my life.

 

[jeffy.dee-lux]

Me and my buddy passed Angelina Jolie walking on a street downtown a couple summers ago when she was filming in Montreal. I didn't recognize her, but my friend was sure of it, so we turned around and caught up to get a second look. He was right, we all just said hi and walked off. I'm convinced the 3 people walking with her were all ninja body guards....

 

[devilot]

I'm convinced the 3 people walking with her were all ninja body guards....

I doubt that she would even need body guards! I think she can kick serious butt.

 

[iDM]

I am always tempted to write that i one time saw DMB and Ozzy Osbourne walk out of a hotel together, but that story is nothing compared to some of the people all of you guys have seen. I don't think I'm going to have the guts to post on this board till i sleep with jennifer gradner or until i marry Elizabeth Hurley.

P.S. In case either of you read this forum, I am 22 still young and fertile, i have zero problem being a trophy husband, I can't cook but i can learn, I will gladly clean any of our properties and i will provide you with as many children as you'd like. Plus I will treat you better then Huey Grant ever did because well lets face it you are my only fantasy.....

 

[Kobushi]

I've been held by Lorenzo Lamas when I was a kid (mom has a snapshot of it).

....I suppose that's better than Michael Jackson.


Let's see, I met Charlie Sheen at a Wendy's
Buzz Aldrin at a space conference (he walked on the moon with Armstrong)
John Lithgow lives near, and shops at the same grocery store as I did growing up. He's really nice/cool.
Cuba Gooding Junior (he's a cocky bugger). Actually, I was waiting in line for a movie and he pulls up in his SUV, starts blasting his music, get's out and leans up against his vehicle as if we're all supposed to run to him and start swooning. Nobody went near him.
Oh yeah, I got to hang with Weird Al and his bass player for a while.

 

[slimflem]

I saw Mark McGuire at The Cheetah in Atlanta several years ago before he retired. He was kicking it with several ladies in a private room. I also saw Michael Irving at The Gold Rush in Atlanta. He also had a swarm of ladies around him.

[puckhead193]

i sat a few lounge chairs away from Steve Spealberg in hawaii while he was filming the first Jurassic Park. I flew over the gates in the movie in a helicopter.

I've met wyane greatzky, adam graves, and many other hockey players. I met whats his name from 3 rock from the sun...the tall annoying voice, JOhn Lithco or something like that.

i was on yacht/catameran with i think magic johnson wife, dad, and i think grandparents on another trip to hawaii when i was like 10ish. His wife is extremely nice.1

 

[njmac]

If I could meet any celebrity I wanted to, I would like to meet one of these people:


Bruce Springsteen
Steve Jobs
Oprah
Tom Hanks
Prince William
Jon Stewart

 

[Deepdale]

I have seen Angie Harmon, Jesse Martin and the late Jerry Orbach as "Law and Order" filmed on location in lower Manhattan just a few blocks from my office.

 

[jcarm24]

Kobe Bryant went to the high school next to mine, so I got to see him play at a game in my HS. He dunked on a kid I used to play ball with. Even my HS cheered when he slammed it in my team's face.

 

[katie ta achoo]

I got drunk and married Britney Spears. The worst three hours of my life.

But it included the best three minutes, right?
I keed, I keed! I love ya, mad jew. If I don't find a prom date, I'll print out your avatar and take that. (ewww.. does that mean Windows XP is my date? Gross... I'm gonna be catchin' some OSTDs-- operating system transmitted disease)

well...
*One time I met the ugly one from 98 degrees in an airport. He thought my violin was a bomb. (I was 6 or 7. I WAS FLIPPING OUT! "zomg some guy from 98 degrees! I LOVE BOY BANDS!!1!)
uhmmm
*I MET ED SKELTON. OK, he's not famous, but he's sooooo coooooooool! He works at the Dallas Fed, teaches at SMU sometimes, and was hit on by Dave Matthews, after Mrs. Skelton said no to Dave. (CRAZY STORY FROM A CRAZY ECONOMIST!)
*Uhm.. My Uncle is Dr. Money! (Singapore. Shut up, I THINK IT'S COOL.)
Errmmm..
*WHEN I WENT TO APPLE HQ, I saw this dude with shoulder length grey curly hair and I'm pretty sure he's famous.. HE WAS OPENING THE DOOR AND GOING INSIDE! Wooo! I was like "WOA! that's a famous guy, I think AND HE'S STANDING RIGHT THERE!"
*And when I went to the bathroom at Apple (I just wanted to go inside) I was in the same building as Steve Jobs and Peter Oppenheimer.. Does that count?
*Oh! And one time, a famous futbolisto was at the Apple store. I dunno who it was, but when I asked someone, he was a player for the Mexican Futbol team. I think that's why I didn't know who it was.
*I go to the same high school as Matt Mullenweg (wordpress) and went to dinner with his mom in SF. (she said he can send me a shirt gratis)
*And erm.. I attended an Isaac Stern masterclass, have met Brian Lewis and Michael McLean several times (It's ok if you don't know who they are.. just some violinists) and I take lessons with Wayne Brooks (principal viola, HSO baby!) sometimes.. I haven't seen him since last March and I still have his Pablo Casals CD.. whoops!
*LOCAL TV NEWS PERSONALITY Dominique Sachse. I asked her if I could do the weather. She said no. I also met FRANK BILLINGSLEY! He's a local TV weather news personality.
*ooo.. the men of tartanic... (local-ish scottish band... ZOMG KILTS!)
*In Miss Congeniality, when she flashes back to the playground, that little kid who pushes her and then she whales on him, Eric Goldberg went to middle school with me. Wouldn't invite me to his mitzvah. Bla!
*I talk to PlaceofDis on adium sometimes. He's like a MR celebrity!
*Uh.. Man, I wanna meet alan greenspan or Timothy Geithner. Someone hook me up.

That's it?
