which celebs have you met and what were they like?

I met Goran Visjnic at my kids school (also his kids school). He was arrogant and loud and couldn't handle it unless all the attention was on him, 100%.

I met the lead singer of Elastica on vacation on the same remote island. She was fine. I didn't recognize her at first or have a clue who she was (her hair had grown long), so that was quite helpful.

Nicholas Brendan (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) is a sloppy, sloppy drunk. Hopefully he’s in recovery now. Painful to watch.

Oh that's so disappointing to hear but it helps explain why he never really had a career after BtVS. I had always figured that maybe he could only play one type of character but there are plenty of actors who make a living that way. He mostly just disappeared.

That being said, I met Charisma Carpenter at a fan meet and greet (meaning: she was paid to be there, plus made money from autographs and pictures) and she was unpleasant to be around. Showed up late, no apologies, and insisted on using "pretty" filters via instagram and snapchat when she took pictures with fans. Total letdown.

That's sad! Both Nicholas Brendan and Charisma Carpenter are letdowns. Not a good thread for Buffy alums!

Florence Henderson was very nice. She gasped when she saw my ds (humble brag) and told me he was a beautiful child.

I second this one.

We saw him when he was out to dinner with his wife. My son, who is a huge fan, didn't want to interrupt their dinner but he must have caught TJ's eye a few times too many because he came over and said hello to him as they were heading out. Made my son's life. He was very sweet to him and gave him an autograph.

That's adorable!

I met and chatted with Mike Fisher (NHL player and Carrie Underwood's husband) quite a few times. This was when he was in the NHL but before Carrie and then early days of Carrie. We had mutual friends.

He was really down to earth and just a really nice guy. He preferred to be out of the spotlight and not noticed and you could tell he found it hard to be recognized everywhere but he was always really nice to anyone who approached him.

I had a couple opportunities to hang out with them all when Carrie was with him but I was always busy. Heard good things about her back then too.

Tim McGraw caught me and some cousins trying to sneak into a Faith Hill concert when we were younger. We thought we were busted. He came back with VIP tickets and invited us to sit with him and his kids and he chatted with us the whole time. An incredibly normal and friendly guy.

Seconded! Met him at a private dinner and was really engaging and personable. No cameras around.

Met Bruce Jenner before the transition. Very nice and looked normal despite the plastic surgery, which, IMO, always made him look odd on TV.

Oh, bummer. I've always had a crush on him.

Floyd Mayweather and he seemed like an ass. He was berating and cursing at his entourage as they followed behind him.

Yes I was very disappointed. He is stupid and can barely speak English without a script, either.

Bryan Cranston. Super down to earth and friendly. One of my favorite actors!
