I met him too. I was dating a midshipman at the time. We were at a small house party with about 5 couples. He walked in and hung out with us. He was a family friend of one of the other midshipmen.

Usher. I bumped into him (literally) at Ben's chili bowl at Obama's first inauguration.

Was she a bitch? She seems like one.


No, she was very nice. I like her a lot.

Debra Winger
Edge from U2
Lorenzo Lamas

All three came to view our house in Southern California when we put it up for sale. Someone unconnected with the entertainment industry bought the house. This was in the mid-nineties.

I met each of them briefly and they were all quite pleasant and friendly.

Also met Nicholas Cage and the late Lynn Redgrave when we lived there but this was unrelated to the sale of the house.

When we lived in Nashville, TN in the 80s I met:

Don Everly, George Jones and Tammy Wynette in the entertainment business. Met Bill Frist and knew Phil Bredesen, the former governor of TN quite well.

I've met:

1. Bill Clinton
2. Al Gore
3. Ted Kennedy

Who have you met? post of pic for extra points.

Sorry OP, meeting politicians doesn't really impress anyone. It's their job to meet as many people as possible and make them think they really got to know them. The ones you mentioned are especially good at that.

I've met a few famous people but honestly the most famous was Snoop Dogg. He was the first celebrity I met and I was about sixteen at the time. He was still a relatively new artist and one of his cousins was involved with a distant relative of mine at the time. His cousin lived out in the valley in LA and we hung out at his house. He stayed in the home studio with his crew and came out to chat with us.

Although they were obviously smoking weed in the home studio everyone was respectful of the fact that we were teen girls. We sat in another room watching movies. Snoop and crew were all super nice.

Were you at North when Matt LeBlanc was there (or are they younger)?

South, actually, and nope - LeBlanc is quite a bit older (I was class of 1997, he was class of 1985 I believe.)

Tim Gunn (very sweet, but our meeting was brief)
Lauren Graham (she's exactly like her Gilmore Girls character in real life and so down to Earth, big fan after meeting her)
Clinton Kelly (he was very snarky, but in a lovable way)
Keisha Knight Pulliam (not sure if that's spelled correctly, met her when she was teen & she was friends with my friend's sister)
Chris Martin (after meeting him, no clue how he stayed married to Gwyneth for as long as he did)
Rosie O'Donnell (liked her a lot before meeting her, not so much after... loud, loud, LOUD)


If she wasn't Rosie O'Donnell, and so annoying gin other ways, LOUD wouldn't bother me at all. New Yorkers are generally loud - but good people, as a whole. I don't hold the fact that they are who are against them.



NY and NJ loud don't bother me, it was that she was constantly talking over others and needlessly raising her voice. Struck me as someone who needs all eyes on them and craves attention.
