[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sat across the aisle from Bill Clinton on a plane.  He borrowed my Vanity Fair magazine (well one of his security guards borrowed it on his behalf)), he gave it back personally, thanked me and told me he knew Elizabeth Hurley and that she was going to be a great mother (she was on the cover of the magazine).  Sat in the same row as Gordon Ramsey on a place.  He offered to get my bag from overhead when we were getting off.  I told him I liked his shows and then we chatted for a few min about from where we were arriving (he was coming from London and me for India).  We were going to Vietnam and I think he was going  to check on a restaurant.  I know there is one more but I can't remember.   I also went to HS with a few actors.  This was in NYC.  [/quote]

I remember the 3rd.  Not as big a star in all circles but I met James Brown (aka. JB), the sportscaster.  We shared a redcap after a late Sunday night train from NYC to DC.  We chatted the whole ride to the taxi line.  He was so polite and really just a nice, old fashioned gentleman.

Other than the actors I went to HS with (so doesn't really count since they weren't famous then) it seems all my celebrity meetings are transportation related.[/quote]

Of course, "it counts" if you knew them in HS before they were famous....[/quote]

I've met JB and interacted with him for work.  Salt of the earth and very genuine, nice, and well-mannered.  Just a true gentleman. [/quote]
