What famous people have you met? (Page 6)

Out of THAT list you asked what ed norton was like?

I like it. 

I thought I had posted this, but then I couldn't find it, so I guess I will now.

I cleaned Ed Bradley's Aspen home once (I worked as a house cleaner in college). He had a fabulous liquor and wine collection and I shined his Emmy. It was already shiny, but I just wanted to say I had done it. I also cleaned for the Estee Lauder family on a near daily basis. They're all neurotic and rude.

I had a picture taken with TORI WELLS while I live in Phoenix back in 1996.

Perhaps some of the men will understand that one.  

Members of the Tragically Hip, Junkhouse, the Waltons, TPOH (canadian alt. rock bands, in the early 90's, the Hip are now official canadian royalty)

When I was MUCH younger, I visited LA, and my dad somehow got me into the Dodger clubhouse...this was the Steve Garvey, Davey Lopes, Pedro Guerrerro dodgers...quite a thrill at the time

Played hockey with/agains Darren McCarty, Ty Domi, Bob Boughner, Ed Jovanoski, throughout my youth...Domi was a 'cementhead' already, at about 12....

Brian Keith, and the other guy from 'Hardcastle and McCormick'...same LA trip, in early 80's

Sat next to Donald Sutherland on an airplane after upgrading myself to first class (no, I did not upgrade after I saw him); he asked me if we wanted to switch seats - I was on the aisle.  After the flight, he bummed a cigarette off of me after he saw me in the smoking lounge of the airport.

Stood in line behind John Turturro at the UN.  I remember saying to my brother "that looks an awful lot like John Turturro" under my breath (hence the italics).  Shortly after I said that, John Turturro was pulled aside by UN security for having a gigantic pocket knife in his pocket.  The guards told him they'd have to confiscate it, but would give it back to him at the end of the tour if he would leave his name.  Thus, I had confirmation it was John Turturro.  

When I was an intern at a local record label a few years ago, myself and one of the engineers had the opportunity to be back stage in the green room of Snoop Dogg.  I actually got to (ahem) partake with Snoop.  Even got to learn how to play dominoes, too.  Woulda remembered, too, if I hadn't been so freakin' stoned.

Canadian crooner Michael Buble went into the audience at his Summer 2005 concert in Ft. Lauderdale, and I got a hug and kiss.  Met Katie Couric after Michael Buble's concert at Radio City in March.  Shook Matt Lauer's hand while at the Today Show in August 2005 (he's not as tall as he looks on tv).  Got another kiss and hug from Michael Buble at the same Today Show taping (he is as hot as he looks on tv).  Got a picture taken with Anne Curry at the Today Show some years ago.  Got an autograph from former LA Dodger Steve Harvey (long time ago).  Took an event portrait picture of Lily Estefan, talk show host on one of the spanish stations.  I also saw her at the Super Target at the outlet mall just last sunday.  Funny.  Can't think of anymore. 

I'm not a Trekkie, however, I met a woman at a hotel-bar in Savannah, Georgia and we talked and talked for the longest time.  Come to find out, she played the character Dax from one of those Star Trek shows, and she was at this hotel in Sav'h for a Trekkie convention.

Saw Julia Roberts at a gay bar in Savannah, Ga.  Man, lots of weird stuff goes on in Savannah....ok, speaking of which - I met Lady Chablis from the movie Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil.  I met Tommy Smothers (going waaay back to the Smother's Brothers days), at his winery in Sonoma Co.

My cousin dated Axl in the GNR heyday.

Ok, I will try to keep this short. I "may" have met someone famous, you be the judge. About 20 years ago, I was riding home from Chicago to Boston on Amtrack. My mom and sister sat together and I sat alone. A gentalman, intorducing himself as Tony Sailor sat down next to me. We exchanged plesantries and mentioned that he was a former balet dancer. Hours latter he mentioned that people may ask for his autogragh, since he looked alot like Vincent Price. When we got to Boston, People from PBS picked him up. At the time Vincent Price was hosting Master Piece Theater.

If it was Vincent, and even if it was not, he taught me how to play dominos, was a restless sleeper, and snored worse than I talk in my sleep 22 hours on a train, in coach, can be a long time
