Famous People you've met - no lying

[OR Freebird]

I used to work for Paramount Pictures and took care of the computer networks for several television shows -- some big ones. So I won't count all the people I met while I was there. And besides, I met the ones I was most awed by totally on my own.

I did some work for the guy who used to run the Universal Ampitheater. As a favor he got me some backstage passes and house seating for a Grateful Dead show there (it may have been just Jerry and Bob, I was so high). Anyway, after the show I tried to get backstage but my name wasn't on the list.

After about 10 minutes of arguing, I was about to give up when someone discovered I was on the "special access" backstage list and they let me in. I met Bob Weir and Bill Graham and shook their hands. Missed Jerry by TWO MINUTES -- damn.

I chatted with Jay Leno at the Rock Store in CA, but so did everyone, so no big deal there. I also met Robert Thompson, the guy who designed the Steal Your Face emblem, while I was working the Renaisance Faire out in San Bernadino.

[Stedric]

Wayne Gretzky once...that was...boring. :o :rolleyes:

[naluman]

shot on there lot loads.used the ocean back drop and shot a beer commerical in the brooklyn lot.

No comment bout meeting peeps there...they worked just like we did...sorry to say but your stage managers sucked cruzin around in the golf carts...lol..

nice studio tho.....has the classic feel...i think when we wrap out we headed up in one of the fake building and sparked a J......lol...

roll camera and action!

[NoosaHeads]

Steve Irwin's (the crockadile man) wild life park is 1/2 hour drive from My house I have been there a few times and met him in person once.and he's just as crazy in real life..

If smoked/drank with a few pro surfers also but not manny people here would know who they were...thats about it..:(

[OR Freebird]

In the middle of the Paramount lot they have a fake city set up to represent various decades in the life of NYC. I too used to break and smoke a J in the privacy of the unused set lots.

Life on the lots was good. I ran all over cause I did five shows. Used to have to push thru throngs of star trek characters to get into my one show, it was across from one of the main star trek sets.

Which reminds me -- one day my good friend came down with me to the lot one Sunday to help me work out a problem. After it was better, we took a walk around the near deserted lot. Oddly enough, the door to one of the Star Trek movie set was was left open. We walked in and were on a recreation of the original enterprise set, captains chair, bridge, hallways and all. Well, you can guess what happened next -- yes, sitting right there in the captains chair. And we got away un-noticed.

Another time, Tina Turner was belting out some tunes for a Hane's commercial -- I stopped and watched that for a while. Shit, I should never have left -- it was a fun time of my life. And yeah, I had access to a golf cart myself -- though I never took it. There was a lot more to be seen walking.

[Sentinel]

The queen when she visited my city (Regina) well I didnt actually meet her just was within 10 feet of her and she looked at me. I also have wayne gretzkys autograph.

[makor01]

i met kelly slater at a surf contest at sebastian inlet, Fl once. I think i was 14 or 15 at the time.

[daZenfmeister]

gary snyder. lol he did a booksigning in my dad's store. also met russel banks, john nichols (er whatever his name is he wrote milagro bean field war, nirvana blues, and magic journey) met alot of famous authors.....I also met john malchovich he came into the store one time.

[rhino44]

Vince Herman of Leftover Salmon outside of Star Hill brewery. they had finished their first set and i was walking out to smoke a bowl and ran in to him right as he was about to get on his bus. I just shook his hand and told him what a good time i was havin and kept it movin.

[OR Freebird]

Who's Gary Snyder?

Book signings are a good place to brush up against celebrity -- at least for 3 seconds. Longest I waited in line for an autograph - like 14 hours -- at a Howard Stern book signing.

It's cool your dad ran the store ... that gave you extra access -- koo

[Hydrizzle]

I have met the joint-rolling kitten.....

[OR Freebird]

Forgot to mention - I met the dog from "Frazier". Many times. Used to play ball with him on his breaks. Unless you've met Flipper it may be tough to top this one.

[Hektik]

I've never met like famous famous people. But i know a shitload of underground horrorcore artists. When i lived in MI i got introduced to hella people through my homies Bedlam. I've smoked out with twiztid, icp, blaze and crew at the gatherings everyyear. But so does everyone else at the gatherings who got some killer budz :D

[ZigZagZeppelin]

Sold Ivan Putski (wrestler from WWF in the 80's) a half Z @ a Wrestling match in the parking lot after a show in Hudson, NY.

[NowhereMan]

peace

[IrieAllie]

Wow....well, back in MY day (LOL) I was fortunate enough to get backstage and meet Journey. This was in the early-mid 80's, so it was a pretty big deal for us 14 year olds..all in our matching outfits and such...braces on our teeth. Yeah, we were some hot groupies. An experience, anyhow. Other than that, just some of the Pittsburgh Steelers after a game once. And Mario Lemeux....I have a game-used autographed hockey stick from him from 1986...that's my prized possession :)

[wutang123456]

rhino, you live in c'ville also?
assuming there are no other star hill breweries in the world

[Bloke]

Gene Hackman, Marilyn Manson, and Conan O'Brien. Oh, and Ramirez from the Red Sox frequently came into the record store I used to work at to buy X-Box games, but I'm not really a sports fan and didn't know who the guy was until someone told me. Also, I thought I was meeting Jon Bon Jovi once, but it turned out to be Kevin Bacon wearing goofy rockstar sunglasses. All of the above were friendly; Marilyn the most of all. I think he was on coke at the time.

[maryjanemama]

Bret Michaels (Don't laugh and don't ask, cuz I'll never tell. ;) )

Motley Crue (Don't laugh)

The Fixx (Don't laugh)

Richard Simmons (OK, I just saw him in a hotel once)

Once dated and lived with the guitar player from a reggae band that is famous in Jamaica but vurtually unknown in the US. Big whoop I know, but, I added him anyway.

[rhino44]

rhino, you live in c'ville also?

i used to live in afton but would go to cville almost everyday

[Bloke]

ooh, maryjanemama; your sig reminded me that I nearly met Steve Wilson of PT when they were up here last month, but he seemed in a hurry to get on his bus, so I didn't want to bother him. My girlfriend, however, lacks the scruples and tact that I have, and got his autograph. I sort of regret not doing it, because he's awesome.

[Lulu]

Gabriel Byrne â?? at a friends house
Damon Hill â?? at the grand prix silverstone â??94, after race Jordan party â?? on guitar

Jay London from last comic standing :)

[Jake0steve]

This doesn't really count, but as me and my friends were getting in our car from the mall, these two guys in nice suits came up and kept bugging us to buy their cd and that is was for a good cause. They used very good grammer and were polite...

We put in their cd called epidemic later and it was them screaming alot similar to System of a Down and they often talked about killing their families and harvasting souls for their dark lord. I was amazed.

I also met the guys from Guts and Nick Arcade when I was little, and the guy from nick Arcade told me if I sent him a letter I could be on the show, but I never was that bastard.

Someone once came up to me and my friends and claimed to be someone from some movie that we later saw didn't even exist. He was some fat guy that smelled funny.

[dokowitz4carbowski]

I've met Ewan McGregor, Jude Law, Sadie Frost and Johnny Lee Miller at the same time once at a film screening seminar thing. And Pharrell Williams and his two massive bodygaurds, they were outside a cinema i used to work in wantin a private screening of some film, but no staff wanted to stay open for them so said goodbye and went on my cheery way.
Also tons of UK tv presenters and boybands of the old days but thats not very interesting.

[Stedric]

I'd like to get Emerils' takes on cooking with Cannabis ... should I ever get to chat with him.

[mellow mood]

i never met really sum1 famous.

[Dick Justice]

I met Steve Young when he came to our school, and I was pretty "giddy" and he welcomed any question, he said so, so I asked what he would name a penguin if he had one, assuming he didn't, and he said "Scout" right away, which made me think he'd thought about it.

[TwinShadows]

Donald Rumsfield

Ok, so he is famous for being a dumbass but still.

[Fugitive]

I saw Stephen Hawkings once did'nt approach him .. in fact no one did everyone just stared at him.

[Zero Revolt]

Marc Summers, Barbra Steisand, Dolly Parton and Micheal Jackson.........Shudders.
Note: I saw micheal jackson back when he was still black and had a nose.

[muncheemama]

i met James Hetfield from Metallica. I asked him to sign my husbands 90 dollar concert ticket and he told me no! Douche bag..... :mad:

[Hydrizzle]

Who's to know who's lying and who's not!? A surprising amount of replies, I'd have to say that most are lying!

[mono repin]

i met James Hetfield from Metallica. I asked him to sign my husbands 90 dollar concert ticket and he told me no! Douche bag..... :mad:

I know a couple people who have met him and had similar experiences. The best being an old friend who was in line for auto graphs right after they cut their hair. He got the front of the line and said "Hey you look like Tom Waits." Hetfield took it as a cut and told him to "fuck off." HAHAHAHA I like there first couple of albums but they turned out to be real douche baggers (minus hammet, he doesn't seem to involved in any drama or bullshit, I respect that).

[Budking]

Just about all the country music stars. I used to work at the Grand Ole Opry

[onwardthroughthefog]

Long list......I used to work in the music industry, so I got to meet quite a few back in the day:

Stevie Ray Vaughn (got to hold his guitar even) and his brother Jimmy, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, the band Boston, Lionel Ritchie, Ted Nugent, Cheech and Chong, Mickey Gillie, Joe Cocker, sat next to Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top on a flight to the Caribbean once, Joe Walsh, most of the Doobie Brothers (without that lame Michael McDonald), Gary Rossington from Lynyrd Skynyrd, Artimus Pyle also from Skynyrd, and many more I can't think of in this condition.

I've also met hundreds of pro athletes and wrestlers over the years..too many to mention. I guess it's not that big of a deal to me, since it was the lifestyle I led at the time, and it was quite a few years ago. I imagine I had a lot of fun though.....just wish I could remember some of it....

[lilee]

Andy Ashby, Larry Holmes, Jerry Orbach and that's all that really sticks out in my head

ive met tons of other famous fucktards, but those are the only two that are worth mentioning.

[onwardthroughthefog]

..... LMFAO ur so full of shit!

Actually no, it's all true. Just a long time ago.

[Hydrizzle]

Apparently they do, Nick, because of all the people Mr. Frog over here has "seen"

[onwardthroughthefog]

Apparently they do, Nick, because of all the people Mr. Frog over here has "seen"

Sorry for driving you to doubting me. I only added an honest reply. No need for me to lie. Live long enough, and work in radio, in clubs that have live bands, or at concerts for a decade or two, and you'll have the chance to meet pretty much anyone you want in music. That's how I spent my youth.

I won't bug you with my replies anymore.

[Hydrizzle]

OK Mr. Righteous. I wont *laugh* be bothered by your posts anymore *giggle*

[givemesomeweed]

dude im fuckin stoned

[givemesomeweed]

Makes your brain hurt too....

[Hydrizzle]

What are you gonna be, the next "i hate america" michael moore type character?

[kiwi]

:confused: Most of the ppl mentioned I have no clue who they are, but thats what you get when we all live in different parts of the world. The only famous ppl I have met have been some of the cast of Lord Of The Rings, but only cos it was filmed by my house and my hubby was a extra. Not sure if any of you have heard of a band called Deep Obsession, but anyway the lead singer (Zara) is a good friend of mine. They are a New Zealand group but the have released albums worldwide. :D

[OR Freebird]

I believe mr Fog. Having worked in Hollywood, it's no news that "famous" people are just tripping over each other ther's so many of them. While I met a lot of famous people, I doubt most of them have even the faintest inkling I exist. And that's fine. Most of them can't relate to us average humans anymore.

funniest motherfucker ive ever met...aside from myself of course

[ermitonto]

What are you gonna be, the next "i hate america" michael moore type character?
Let me get this straight. Just because I am opposed to the actions of the United States government does not mean I have hatred for the 280 million people residing in America, or the land between Canada and Mexico, or whatever you're trying to accuse me of hating. Like most other sensible people, I don't believe that a person should be judged by their nationality and I certainly don't hate anybody or anything just for being American. And I never professed a fondness for Michael Moore. To be honest, I don't even know a whole lot about his works or ideas. My comment about being famous someday was supposed to be blatantly narcissistic sarcasm. I don't actually intend to become famous (I don't know what I could do to get there), but it would be nice.

But to get back to the original topic, I did shake the hand of the lead singer of 3 Doors Down while I was in the front row at a concert.

[mikeo14]

once i met the captain of a spaceship when I was on LSD he told me "to find the way I must first remove the yellow brick" .

[mlleyeuxbleus]

Ate two tables away from Henry Kissinger at Le Cirque in NYC, & flew on the same plane as Edward Walker from Trading Spaces. I didn't actually *meet* either of them, but there was eye contact, lol. It was sorta cool.

[anycraic]

[mynameismike0]

i used to be in a band with this guy who, after our band broke up, formed a band with another dude, who now is the bass tech for the band saliva.

Jane Fonda gave me a lap dance in 1989. She was pretty wrinkled even then, but she smelled great.

[Porkchop]

I used to work at this restauraunt on mackinac island Michigan, and Bud Bundy from Married With Children came in with some chic and was having a few drinks, I just shook his hand, I didn't really have time to do more.. Also on the same place I met Howard Stern, he is 1 ugly mother fucker, I don't see how he does what he does!!

[mlleyeuxbleus]

Ah yes, also forgot... Steve Poltz (of the Rugburns)... was on stage with the band for about 7 delirious minutes on New Year's Eve a few years ago in San Diego. Also T-Bone, who I believe played bass for the Rugburns (or was that night, anyway)... I actually peed in front of him backstage that night, lol. He wouldn't leave, & I hadda gooooo.... hahaha :) Fun night.

[OR Freebird]

I actually chatted for a bit with the guy who played Data on Star Trek. Unfortunately he was a bit if an asshole so I avoided him from then on.

[Teela39]

I met Mel Gibson at a cast party many years ago held in Toronto. I also did a couple of lines of coke with him it was a lot of fun and a great experience.

[richieguy69]

I met the entire 2004 Chicago Cubs when I was their "Celebrity Batboy." Steve and Chip even made fun of my because i have one of those little beards that Matt Clement has and those batkids usually look really young and they said i was the first one they'd seen with a beard.

I stayed in the same hotel as Bobby Knight I think two or three years ago and met him. He's actually a pretty cool guy when hes not throwing chairs. Also met Dee Brown and Luther Head and talked with them for maybe five minutes. Also really cool guys.

Does anybody remember Vitamin C? When I was young me and my little girlfriend got to meet her at a concert.

When my dad was at the Mayo Clinic getting a tumor removed, I got to shake Harrison Ford's hand. I was in like 6th Grade and i was reading Harry Potter and he came in the same waiting room as me and sat down just accross from me. I love Star Wars so of course me being an inconsiderate little asshole I went up and shook his hand and talked for like two minutes.

[richieguy69]

Oh shit forgot i HAVE to include this one. My dad was like 17 when he got a cancerous growth and had to go up to the Mayo Clinic to get it removed. As hes walking through the hallway reading something he bumped into none other than..........................SADDAM HUSSEIN. Can't remember what Saddam was having done there but that was back when the US didnt hate him. He didn't actually bump into saddam he bumped into a bodyguard.

On another interesting note, my ex girlfriend sat on the lap of one of the priests who got accused of child molestation(the Catholic Ones). Not too interesting but I still give her shit about it in school.

[Light Up]

Liam Neeson, Daniel Day Lewis, Robert De Niro, Uma Thurman, Brian Conely

[OR Freebird]

Forgot -- I actually met and talked to George Burns in a doctor's office elevator. He was really tiny, but had an enormous amount of charisma. He was charming and funny. Too bad he died.

[Funken Monken]

So many golfers I cannot remember, including that guy....what is it now....Lion Forrest? Puma Copse? Oh yeah, Tiger Woods. Nice guy, not a twat like Ian woosnam.

So far it looks like the Queen and the Prince have it. I guess our presidents don't get out much (amongst us anyway).

Well, it's not over yet. Anyone meet anyone from the Monty Python troupe? Or Benny Hill? Just curious.

when their first album Bleach came out, they had two guitarists. Then, Jason Everman left to become Soundgarden's bass player. I got Kurt's number from Jonathan Poneman, one of the founders of Subpop records. I waited until about three in the afternoon to call Kurt because I figured rock stars slept in late. Well, I still woke him up. This was way before they were famous. I apologized for waking him but I told him that I knew they were minus a guitar player and I thought they were god... I asked him to call me if they auditioned for another guitar. He was very polite and said that they had decided to go as a trio but he took my number anyways and said he would let me know if they changed their minds. A few years later, Nevermind hit, they were a household name, and a few years after that, Kurt was dead. He was such a genius. And I think you are right. Courtney might have killed him. There was no reason for him to kill himself. He was looking forward to a new project with Michael Stipe (REM). Word is he was drawing too much attention to his heroin dealer with his OD a few weeks prior in Italy. Courtney just wanted his money and his unpublished songs some of which she tried to use with her band Hole until she got busted by the bass player Krist Novoselic.

I banged Jenna Jameson so i guess i met her. I know a guy who didn't have sex with her, but, he hung out with her after he met her in a strip club. He says that if he had made some moves he thinks he would've been able to get her in the sack, but, he was too nervous and has no skills. (It's soooo true, he's cute, but, completely clueless). Anyway, he has some crazy pics of the 2 of them together....she seems pretty easy.

what was tokyo rose doing giving lap dances? :cool:
The publisher of the local newspaper in Massachusetts where she shot a film with Deniro threw her a party on his back lawn before the crew pulled out. Our publisher had written pro-forgiveness editorials about her after the local vets groups protested and threatened to drive Hanoi Jane out of Holyoke.

I was a staff photographer at the paper and had to shoot the party. After being told to act like she wasn't famous, all our dipshit reporters started asking to have their photos taken with her.

Fonda got pretty drunk on wine and whiskey sours and came over later that evening and sat on my lap and told me I was terminally cute. I don't know why I got a boner, since I'm not into MILFs at all. But I remember deciding to just sit there and keep poking at her and see if she cares. And the band was playing some Frank Sinatra crap, so it was all a little Twilight Zoneish.
