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.

I was so drunk I was like "OMG, Ben Stiller, i LOVED something about mary!" (this was a few years after that came out--2000ish. He was kind of annoyed...
He's a jerk, by so many accounts. I haven't met him but I went to a film panel thing he was on. He looked like a caveman in person- gigantic head, hunched over...
I have met Sonia Sotomayor, Sandra Boynton, Joshua Bell, Conan O'Brien, Andy Richter, Carson Daly, Scott Thompson (Kids in the Hall), Topher Grace, Bill Paxton (R.I.P.), various Whose Line is it Anyway people, Mike Myers, Kate Flannery from The Office (which I never watched, I met her before that) and lots of bands/ musicians. I worked in the music industry for a looong time. I was probably the most nervous meeting Scott Thompson, because I had been a fan for so long (and by that time I had generally gotten over my fear/ awe of famous people, since I worked for them, but for some reason, I was very anxious). He was so sweet.
I avoided bumping into Blythe Danner (literally) at the NY Film Festival last year. She's so tall, she would have knocked me right over.
I'm PP. I forgot Richard Kiley! I worked in a cafe one summer and brought him a lemon poppy muffin and coffee every morning.
Alan Arkin, forgot him too. Not adding any more.
PP here. Adding more! I forgot Jon Stewart- he's a short man who clearly wears massive shoe lifts/ has a complex. He was shorter than me when I met him (I'm 5'2", had 1" heel on) but I ran into a celebrity in fall 2016 that he had recently been photographed with. The celebrity is taller than I, but in photos from this past year, Jon Stewart is an inch taller than the celebrity. Tiny man, trying to be big.
Addressing the bolded. I've met Jon Stewart as well - several times. He wasn't shorter than you. I'm 4'11", my sister is 5'4", and he's taller than her. There are no lifts that are going to give him that much of a boost. He'd have to be in stilettos. It sounds like you don't like him for whatever reason, and that's fine, but there's no need to blatantly lie. You're not getting points for it. Tiny PP, trying to be big.
He absolutely was shorter than I was. I have no beef with him, or I would not have been backstage at his show. It's okay if you don't agree. People saw it, and said to me when he ran by "Boy, he's so short!" Because he is.
If what you're saying is that he's 5'3 or under, you are incorrect. Add to that, your diagnosis of his supposed complex you wouldn't know about from passing him once, and we're left with the impression that you don't really like the guy.

Haha, I was on an airplane with him once. I noticed him when he was putting something in the overhead bin. All I could think was his arms are like twice the size of my thighs.

Oh apparently I met and chatted with Reese Witherspoon for a while at a frat party in college, but I was drunk and have no recollection of this.

I'm clearly not hte winner here, but:
- Bill and Hillary Clinton (while they were POTUS and FLOTUS)
- Janet Reno (when she was AG)
- Barack Obama (when he was POTUS)
- several members of Congress while working on the Hill and also on flights to/from DC
- I grew up 2 doors down from the owner of my hometown's basketball team, and they won the NBA championship a couple years when I was a kid. One of the more famous players once came to our house by mistake. My mom answered the door and didn't recognize him (and apparently didn't register that the near 7' tall person standing in her foyer might play on the sports team her DS was at that time obsessed with). She was having a conversation giving directions to a very confused athlete when I walked into the foyer in time to see him leaving. We still tease her about this.

Did you tell Guy that you ran into his wife and daughter 2 yrs prior?

No. It was a long time ago. We lived there for twelve glorious years! He is a super nice person. Very friendly and outgoing. He makes you kinda forget he is famous.
