Wow, I am so jealous. Love the SP. What was Billy like?


He seemed to genuinely appreciate the compliment. It was like an 8 second conversation.

Met them at an album signing in 2000. They were all pretty friendly, but I guess it's their job at events like that.

One of the highlights of my youth was seeing SP at a small club in 1999. It was really hot, and as Billy was drinking water between songs I asked for some. He chucked his bottle at me, I caught it, and kept it for many years. I finally realized, 'What the hell am I going to do with this?'

I know a musician who shares some mutual acquaintances with Billy. Apparently he's not the nicest person...

Hung out with the guys from Incubus. All were really kind and sweet. Super gorgeous too.

I met Candace Cameron in 1995 when I was in 8th grade. She was incredibly gracious and signed autographs for about 50 Full House obsessed 13 year olds.

Morgan Spurlock once got the attention of a waiter for me who was clearly ignoring everyone but him.

Wow. What did Brad and Angie look like in person? Was it like staring into the face of the sun?


Brad Pitt looked the same in person - that is, the most gorgeous man ever. Angelina was beautiful, but tiny, tiny, tiny! And shorter than I would have thought.


Wow, this is good to know! Glad to hear he's not just super photogenic as some celebs are. He really is so beautiful.

Is Angelina kind of skeletal looking now? I see pics and try to imagine the camera adding ten pounds and just imagine that in person she looks incredibly emaciated.


Yeah, he is legit gorgeous. She was very skinny when I saw her, but this was 2009/ 2010.

I've always suspected Ashley Benson would be a bit of a bitch and now I feel so vindicated. Can you give any more details?


It was during the cocktail hour sort of meet and greet. And we went up and said hi and she stuck out her hand to shake our hands but didn't even look us in the eye. And then we took a picture but she was rolling her eyes and sighing the whole time. I was really disappointed!

She was crowd surfing at a Hole concert in middle school? or were you?

Either way, thats kind of really badass for a middle schooler.


She was. She was in 8th grade. I was in 7th.

I'm happy to hear this. He seems like a very nice guy who is somewhat surprised by his success and keeps himself somewhat grounded. I'd be crushed to hear he's a douchebag.


I could actually see them being friends. She is really funny and outgoing (actually has her own radio show). She usually charms everyone she meets though she has had a few run ins with viciously rude celebs. So when I heard about Jimmy I was just delighted. Told her she should have told him about her radio show and asked for an internship at his show (she is in her early 20s) though I'm sure nothing would have come of it, but it never hurts to ask!
