Who is the Most Famous Person that you've ever met?

Spike Lee (we got into an argument about college basketball :roll
?uestlove
Dennis Hopper
Saw Sarah Jessica Parker shopping in the LA in the mid-90s, pre-SATC fame, but didn't talk to her (but knew her from some of her movies)
James Carville
The guys from the band Rooney slept in my living room in college after playing a gig in town (why they didn't have a hotel, I have no idea, guess they weren't that famous even then)
Ant from Atmosphere after they played a show at the 9:30 (bonus points if you know who that even is)
Lots of the top DoD brass, including recently ousted natsec advisor Mike Flynn -- but that's DC, as are the various senators I've met

Dr. Sanjay Gupta was my Resident Adviser in college and lived in the room next to me. Very nice dude!

Oh, I forgot! I met Jared and Brandi from the Storage Wars show a few years ago. We were on the same cruise together and they were with their kids. They're the perfect example of opposites attract. DH had several conversations with Jared and he's not the dumb pseudo-thug as he appears on the show.

And yes, I know Storage Wars is mostly fake. And yes, I do enjoy it. And yes, I'm highly educated.

I've met several Nobel Prize Laureate. And I have no idea what the type of sciences they are involve in, that they deserve such an award. To me, they are just normal people who seem to excel in a concentration in science.
Oh wait, I guess they aren't celebrities so not as famous as the ones listed.

Jim Neighbors. Near his home on Diamond head. I was running the hills while training for a marathon.

Sinbad! 4am at the Dallas airport. I was exhausted and traveling alone with my then 1 year old. My DH was deployed during Desert Storm. He bought me a muffin. So sweet!

Shep Smith. Many, many times. He has a condo in Oxford and goes to a lot of home games. I've been to several parties with him.

No one super big, but I'm easily impressed.


I love Tom Selleck and love watching Magnum! That was a fun show. Do you still have that house in Hawaii?


I slept with Tom Selleck in the 90's.


Are you male or female, PP who slept with Tom Selleck.


female........


Seriously? He married Jillian in the late 80's. How did you meet him?


I call BS. He has been married to |Jill Mack forever.

I think Julie Andrews is the one in coveting to meet! What was she like?

I met Dr. Ruth and had a nice and somewhat awkward chat, given her speciality and that I was sort of sheepish about that stuff in college. I'm short and I also rarely have a chance to meet people shorter than me!

Bill & Hillary also more than once. Both politician-y and forced. Bill was very red (this was in the late 90s).

Warren Christopher - had dinner with him once at an ex bf's house whose dad was a big shot at the State Dept. He asked me what my favorite movie was and I stumbled to say something smart (I was 17).

Jason Sehorn - through a work thing. Tall, hot, and very nice.

John Mayer - this was a random one. Right when he was becoming big (2001?) I was at a party at a college friend's apartment in NYC. Turns out her roommate went to high school with John Mayer, and he showed up. Everyone was trying to be cool. He was kind of a douchebag (lounging waiting for everyone to fawn over him) but not ridiculously so. Tall with a big head, just like he looks in pictures.

I've seen but not met Reese Witherspoon - like others she is TINY in person.

Late 90s Stanford alum?

I stood in line behind and talked to Eddie Vedder at the Pier 1 in Manhattan Beach when I lived there. It was about 2002 or so. It was kind of surreal that 1) Eddie Vedder shops at Pier 1 and 2) waits in line.

I know that. He talked about her. She and I actually look a little alike. He cheated on her. With me and probably others. It was a short fling....
