Anthony Stewart Head. lol, NOTHING like Giles in real life. Very sexy, and super nice.

James Marsters, again, very sexy and super nice.

Not really a celebrity, but Doug Bradley (the actor who plays Pinhead in Hellraiser). lol, he was a tiny, super short old man wearing a fanny pack.

Ethan Hawke. lol, I pretty much *have* to say he looks great (he's a family friend)

Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick - both look pretty haggard IRL.

Glen Danzig - awful in person, and super short

Lars Frederickson - haggard...and a jerk. My friend dated him

I moved to LA six months ago. I see at least 5 actors on my daily hike/run path.

Sometimes less cause I don't recognize anyone. They look like "normal" people in sneakers, running pants, tshirt and no make up

Angela Bassett is gorgeous in person and her rock hard body looks even more toned in person.

I always knew Dolly Parton was small, but she really is tiny.

Robert Downey Jr. is quite handsome in person.

Philip Seymour Hoffman is very nice, a bit awkward, but nice. Looks the same in person as he does in the movies.

I agree, Rob Lowe is VERY hot in real life...and a really nice guy too.

Bobby Flay is shorter than you'd think, but very nice and gracious.

Lauren Bacall, insanely beautiful, love the deep voice.

Katie Couric looks better on tv and despite being so cutesy, was not very friendly IRL. It was a bit dissapointing.

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck look gorgeous IRL, but JG is painfully thin (to me). Adorable though.

Pamela Anderson looks like she's lived a rough life and had some ill-planned tattoos.

Lauren Conrad looks just like she does on tv and mags. Young, stylish, cute.

Oh, and my man, Rob Lowe. Looks older IRL, but, well, handsome and super friendly. Crush continues.

Been to the White House Correspondents dinner. Tons of celebs there and it was so much fun to see them.

Yes, me too. And it is well deserved. He is actually sexier IRL, even with the short stature.

I saw Oprah maybe 5 years ago and was surprised how old she looked...her bags under her eyes were really bad!!!!

Giada doesn't look bad, but she looks much much older in person.

Martin Sheen, very short, but very handsome, even after a flight from LA to DC, where I met him at baggage claim along with Toby and Josh from the West Wing.

My husband ran into Uma Thurman on the street (several years ago) and said she looks great in person. Our friends met Scarlett Johanssen in India and said she looked terrible.

Norah O'Donnell is stunningly and genuinely beautiful in person.

Jason Priestly is surprisingly short.

Jennifer Love-Hewitt is gorgeous but not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Perez Hilton is pudgy and kind of gross.

Hmmm.

Completely bored at work and thinking, which "celebrities" has one met (celebrity loosely defined to encompass famous for DC celebrities) that look great (maybe even better than pics) in person? The converse, of course, who looked trulyl dreadful in the flesh?!
