GTKY: have you ever met anyone famous?

NKF312 · November 2013

I am completely unoriginal and again stole this from another board,but I'm curious j13 bumpies, have you met anyone famous?

NKF312 · November 2013

I've met, Dennis Rodman, R.Kelly (before his scandal), the crew from Jackass (3x! Wtf) and Martha Stewart.. I think that's all.

KMRR86 · November 2013

I met Drew Lachey from 98 Degrees once. He's so cute! lol

[Deleted User] · November 2013

I met Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith from Jay and Silent Bob and Clerks when I was working at the front desk of a hotel I worked at.

blairwitch · November 2013

Just getting to chat with the members of Trans Siberian Orchestra in the autograph line. But I was memorable as I have one as a facebook friend and I mentioned my picture he signed and replied he really liked it

amaburch · November 2013

Easton Corbin & G. Love. Both autograph lines if that counts!

emmanemm · November 2013

This is so embarrassing but I've met the Jonas brothers, took my little sister to a concert and we had backstage passes and a meet and greet.

ashie624 · November 2013

I baby sat two kids at one of their concerts. The screaming. Holy Crap the teenage girl screaming. I wanted to rip my ears off. Awful awful horrible idea.

ceechie · November 2013

Didn't get to actually met them, but watched Judd Apatow and Leslie Mann eat lunch. I'm sure I didn't make them uncomfortable completely turned around in my chair and staring.

blairwitch · November 2013

I went to school with Jordan Zimmermann ( Nationals pitcher ) and Mark Tauschers (Retired Green Bay Packer) brother

Does that count

karen0477 · November 2013

Colin Firth when I worked at a sporting goods store about a million years ago....he bought a basketball.

emmanemm · November 2013

Oh, I forgot to mention I've also met Harry connick jr. He graduated from the same art school I went too, he came and spoke to us my senior year.

littlelegslo · November 2013

Kathy griffin ( I stepped on her heel at Starbucks) and Usher.

UTQT09 · November 2013

I was really good friend with Brandi cyrus in high school and have obviously met Miley and Billy Ray. Ke$ha (I did not like her at all in high school) and Ryan Folse (Hot Chelle Rae) were also in my class. Living in Nashville and working in retail I have waited on several stars including faith hill, Reba, Kelly Clarkson, and Carrie underwood.

Edit: we have also seen a lot of stars while we are out but didn't talk to them- Nicole Kidman/ Keith Urban, Kix Brooks, Kings of Leon

DenverBride2005 · November 2013

Ben Folds, Adam Duritz, Robin ____ lead singer of Gin Blossoms(after concerts getting signatures)--man showing my age with all the 90s music

Shannon Sharpe at a DVD signing when the "complete history of the Denver Broncos" came out. DH has met a lot more than me--Coldplay, members of no Doubt, John Elway, lily Allen, Liz phair, John madden, Katie Couric.

gutsymama · November 2013

Albert Pujols went to my high school. I was quite a bit younger so I didn't really know him, but my older sister's boyfriend was on the baseball team with him (state champs, what what) and I watched them play.

@ashie624 I went to a Better Than Ezra concert in college, and when they pulled somebody from the pit up onto the stage to play the cowbell for them, it was our dean. Poor man had no rhythm, but he tried very hard

ashie624 · November 2013

@mimi4347 Haha thats awesome! They seemed very nice. The one picture I have, with one of the guys, forget his name, the poor guy had been sweating so bad, he has sweat stains in his armpits. And he was the one holding the camera to take the picture, so its clear view. Haha

ashie624 · November 2013

@mimi4347
I found the picture! haha

jmw222 · November 2013

I met Pedro Martinez of the Boston Red Sox while I was in Miami. Also met and had dinner with Vince Papale of the Philadelphia Eagles (the movie Invincible was based on his story) a few days ago. Both are from my DHs favorite sports teams and he wasn't with me for either!

Edit: mobile bumping fail

Stina2012 · November 2013

Sean Penn! I met him at a bar in Williamsburg. I was trashed and probably annoying as shit.

rooter84 · November 2013

When I was young I met Zachary Ty Bryan from Home Improvement and Brandon Call from Step by step at a car show my dad took me to.

I have been in the room/next to many Minnesota Twins players and Minnesota Wild players as I work in a children's hospital and they come visit the kids there.

fabk · November 2013

Many many NHL players current and old ( I met Johnny Bauer!!!) And some figure skaters all while working retail. Sue from Sex with Sue. A bunch of bands after concerts. Don Cherry. No body too exciting though.

lancomechica · November 2013

Kelsey Grammer, Luke Perry, President Reagan, Bush #1, Jamie Foxx, Kwame from the first season of the apprentice, tons of athletes. I also saw a lot of famous people living in NYC but didn't meet them.

I'm sorry, but Don Cherry counts as SUPER EXCITING in my book.

He is up here but half the time on these boards people don't know who he is or how awesome he is.
My old boss worked in the sports industry before retiring and ended up working retail to get out of the house daily. He knew every sports person who came into the store. Gretzky wouldn't faze him. But whenever Don Cherry came in this guy turned into a fangirl. Only he knew him personally so it was freaking hilarious.

missyjg · November 2013

I was a medic at the local sports arena. They also have concerts there. So through that job I met Dave Matthews, rascal flatts, Britney Spears (sweetest girl ever!) boys from Hanson (who were complete jerks to their fans), and Jeff foxworthy.
I also was eating dinner in Syracuse NY and Alec Baldwin and his mom sat in the booth next to us. Didn't really talk to him but I loved all the baldwins at that time, so I was in awe.

My DH bought me a Luke Perry poster for my 30th birthday!

And a friend of mine from college slept with Kwame when he gave a talk at our school.

minouvan · November 2013

Johnny Depp, in the 21 Jump Steet days... Dating myself there!

UTQT09 · November 2013

@dccornel yea she is a lot different from when I knew her. Back then it was walls full of horse show stuff, cheerleading, and church. Not so much of the naked, tongue hanging, on stage groping but to each his own. I have to admit I do like some of her new songs $:\$ ">

lancomechica · November 2013

I got to hug him! I didn't want to let go! My husband knows how much I LOVE Dylan Mckay...but never got me a poster

Bill and Hillary Clinton on a few occasions, Bob Dole, Joe Biden, Al Gore, John Kerry, Tom Daschle, Tammy Baldwin...probably forgetting a few. Used to party with Aaron Carter (BSB Nick Carter's little bro) because his family lived in the Keys when I was living there.

I Loved Luke Perry! What's crazy is my cousin's name for real is Dylan McKay so I always thought that was cool.

I can't think of anyone at the moment, but my roommate's friend brought Chad Michael Murray home and didn't realize who he was. Her roommate found him wandering their house in the morning. I always thought "wtf how drunk do you have to be to not realize you brought him home?!"

I went to his house in college on the one tree hill days.

yummy man! That was an interesting night.

Also Michael Jordan at a panthers game in VIP. And Ryan cabrerra(I was drunk and talked to him in a pizza place haha)

Sincera4 · November 2013

My mom's family grew up with a former Chicago Bear, Chris Zorich (he was best friends with my uncle). He came to my birthday party right after Notre Dame won their National Championship. We saw him several times after that as well.

DHs collar bone was broken by John Kuhn who plays for the GB Packers. They were friends in PA growing up.

rondosa · November 2013

Hmm...well I met Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell along with a younger Kate Hudson at a burger joint north of Toronto...they have a cottage up near here.

I've met a number of Formula 1 drivers...Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber a couple of times and David Coulthard too. I nearly had Vettel sign my baby bump LOL.

I also met and had dinner (in a group) with Jason Priestly and Matt Dusk over the F1 weekend in Montreal. Oh and I've met Bobby Orr a few times (we shot commercials with him when I worked for an ad agency). He's such a nice man.

jennipalmer · November 2013

Michael Jordan when I was young I tried to say something but I just kept staring cause he is so tall. Magic Johnson, Blue October, Hawthorne Heights (I played Wii with them), a finalist on American Idol (I forgot name).
I had dinner with Jason Giambi from Yankees and his drunk brother Jeremy. My ex husband was like a little girl then got pissed at me because I asked "If playing in NY made the whole steroid thing worse because NY fans are so hardcore"I went to high school with Kurt and Kyle Busch their mom was school cashier. I also meet Penn from Penn and Teller and Andre agassi when I worked fast food. Finally yesterday I met Sugar Ray Leonard on airplane he was super nice he called Liam a heavy weight. I didn't want to take picture with him because everyone was bugging him I felt bad...but I took creeper pic lol.
