Celebrities you've seen and/or met

[Chibi_Venus]

Before we start, I'm going to start by saying that I searched and didn't find such a topic.

This is merely to state famous guys and gals you've seen with your own two eyes instead of the television, magazines, and any other media device. Please don't go bragging to someone and such. First of all, it's not nice! ^^;;

I've never actually met any celebrities, like, I've never shook hands, had a picture taken... but I've seen them in public places.

Spoiler:

Raven Symone
She was promoting a new perfume or something at a local Wal-Mart.

Davy Jones
He was performing at Epcot in Disney World; my mom actually received a kiss from him.

Cicely Tyson
She was actually a special guest narrator at Epcot's 2005 Candlelight Processional. I was there with my school choir, performing.

Lou Diamond Phillips
Same as above.

John Stamos
Same as above, though I wasn't performing the day he narrated the show.

Mario Lopez
He was a guest narrator at the 2006 Candlelight Processional; I was performing with my school choir. (Let me tell you: He is not as great as you expect him to be. <<;

Brian Dennehy, Neil Patrick Harris, Edward James Olmos, and Marlee Matlin
Same as above.

Dylan & Cole Sprouse
Okay, these two I'm not entirely positive about. I was at Epcot (yet again) watching a spring show (Davy Jones was performing). My mom, brother, and I were towards the back casually watching the show... Suddenly, I see this young, blonde boy in a dirty baseball uniform. We made eye contact, I casually smiled. I thought to myself, "Hm. He looks exactly like one of the Sprouse twins. (Cole to be exact, he looked thin.) If only there were a boy identical to him, only chubbier." And who sits down next to this blondie? A boy looking EXACTLY the same as the first boy I saw (and Dylan Sprouse), slightly chubbier than the first boy. I was like, "WHOA!" I didn't go up to them or anything, but I asked my mom about it. Whenever we see the show The Suite Life of Zack and Cody on TV we say, "That was definetly them." Of course, my brother has to prove me wrong by saying, "No it wasn't! What would they be doing at Epcot watching Davy Jones?" Good question, little bro. What would Ayu be doing in Texas? You just never know.

I hope I didn't waste my time by making a post that's already been a thread.

I met Jojo at The 99' (a restaurant) in my town. I talked with her for like two minutes and gave her a hug. She was really sweet.

I don't really know if you could consider him famous but when I was little I met Bill Nye the Science Guy at the airport. I don't really remember much but I remember going up to ask him for an autograph and he was mean to me. I also saw Kathy Griffin perform in my college town a couple months ago and caught her as she was going out the back after her show. She is so hilarious!

I've seen Jill Hennesy on the set for Crossing Jordan when I was in Universal Studios. Also the band Blessid Union of Souls. And that's it for me!

My mother, on the other hand, has had the pleasure of running over Ricardo Montebon. Poor guy. He never had the chance to ward her off with his walker.

I met The Prime Minister of Japan, Koizumi in Nara in 2005 :p I was walking out of a metro station when I saw a huge crowd of people giving a standing ovation and then about six bodyguards and Koizumi's grey mop of hair He was waving and people were smiling, in my country we only throw eggs at politicians so that was kinda cultural shock for me :p Maybe you wouldn't call him a celebrity but I like that guy and it was a huge coincidence that I had such unexpectable possibility to see him live

I haven't really met any celebs... I was on a promo event of Tomb Raider Legend and saw Karima Adebibe and had a group photo taken with her... that's all...

As far as I remember I'm also in that group photo Not to mention some Eidos crew that were constantly borrowing tissues from me the day before.
