I bumped into leelee sobieski... if anybody even remembers her. Literally bumped into her... don't think I was paying attention when I was walking... she was attending Brown University at the time here in RI.
And also hung out with the Pixies... my uncle is good friends with the guitarist. So we got VIP at one of their reunion shows a couple years ago, and then hung out with them after.
Didn't really meet them... but saw a couple of the girls from Danity Kane at the mall one time.
And also met the Farrelly brothers... the guys who made dumb & dumber, something about mary, me myself and irene, etc... they're originally from RI, lived the next town over from where I am. Sometimes they do movie premieres at the local theatre, and film alot of scenes here too so it's cool that they bring it back home occasionally.

George Steinbrenner, just in passing (he was a few yards away with some people). I just shouted out something along the lines of thanks for all you do to keep us winning, and he actually smiled and said thank you.

well my father is a TV exec so ive met quite a few people thru the business.
im not gonna drop the list of names, but my personal favorite was ben affleck. Hes a great guy and will do anything to get into a great conversation. He will ask you to come have a seat with him and talk or to come out one day when hes in town for some cheeseburgers or some good hotdogs. He just likes to hang out like everyone else. Not to mention hes a really huge humanitarian. The guy spends a lot of his down time helping to take care of those who are unable to help themselves. Really a great guy.

I met Rainn Wilson (Dwight Schrute from The Office) last December in Miami. And on the same day, if you count slapping hands while he was rapping, Ludacris. That same trip, we saw Tito Ortiz and Jenna Jamieson in the lobby of the hotel we stayed at.
When I was 9, I did "The Twist" with Chubby Checker.
We wandered around the Minneapolis airport with The Big Show in the middle of the night, a few years ago. Didn't get enough courage to say "Hi" (well, my husband didn't and kept me from going up to him) though.
You seriously didn't ask that, did you? lol

i've chatted with billy idol in an elevator for about 2 minutes. he had the penthouse suite, of course. he's a really nice guy. there were groupies, clad in leather, in the lobby until the next morning waiting for him.
my best friend's sister is megeina tovah. she's the geeky blonde girl across the hall from peter parker, in the spiderman movies. she was also in the tv series 'joan of arcadia'. funny thing is... whenever we all went out... people would confuse her brother(my friend) for brendan fraser. we would play that up too... just to get attention, and sometimes free stuff.

I ran into Pauly Shore in an elevator in Vegas. The dude was plastered, but was hillarious. I've also spoken with George Carl (NBA coach), Bill Cartwright (NBA), Steve Young (NFL), and played basketball against Shawn Bradley (NBA). My little bro played ball against LeBron James in the ABCD camp when he was there. Oh yeah, I've sat next to John Stockton, he's a jerk, and Karl Malone at their kids basketball games.
My favorite of all time though was Jason Williams (White Chocolate). I was working valet at PF Changs and he was with Shane Battier waiting for their ride. I sat and talked to those guys for a good 20 mins.

I met Chuck Norris sitting two rows away from me at the first Dallas Stars hockey game they ever played. The dude was an _______ to everyone.
Ran into Bam Margera in Atlantic City a few months back and he was a real cool guy, we ended up chilling with him and a couple of his friends for a few hours in Ceasars.
Have worked out with Trotter, Runyan, and a few other members of the Philadelphia Eagles on more than one occassion and used to talk to Ryan Moates of the Eagles frequently as he lived down the road from my old store and would always come in to shop and hang out (we're both Dallas area boys living in the Philly area).
**** star Jasmine St. Claire is the biggest _____ in the world, and lets people know that she does indeed have more than one masters degree and speaks seven languages fluently and is not shy to let you know she is smarter than you.
The Blue Meanie is cool as hell, used to hang out with him a lot. Got to hang out with Bam Bam Bigelow, Kevin Sullivan, half of the old ECW locker room, Dusty Rhodes, Stan Hansen, Mick Foley, Ric Flair, CM Punk, etc.
I'm not going to count people I just ran into at an autograph signing or a meet and greet.
