What celebs have you guys seen at WDW?

The only one I have encountered is Sinbad (he is huge!)

Oh yeah you can also count the Tampa Bay Bucs

My DH saw and got a photograph with Drew Carey in January 1997. He was just strolling through MK.

I met Stewart Scott (ESPN Anchor) on the Disney Magic about 5 years ago. Actually, I sang Karaoke with him. It was wild!

He also signed a detailed autograph to my 6th grade class which hangs here in the classroom. He was a class-act..

The only time I have seen celebs was when I was a CP. I saw Jason Giambi in Mouse About Town at MGM, and music star Pharell on Main Street. My roommate helped Tim McGraw and Faith Hill with their kids onto Dumbo, and saw Justin Timberlake and Camron Diaz also in Fantasyland.

I rode in a monorail car with Kelly Rippa and her husband Mark and their kids and her parents. What beautiful kids they have. I had to smile though because her dad took a couple of pictures with a disposable camera. I think Kelly has enough jobs to spring for a good camera for dad . I didn't say anything to them as they looked like they were having a nice family vacation.

In May 2005 I stood in line behind Samantha Brown (the lady from the Great Hotels show on the Travel Channel), her mom and their VIP guide at the Haunted Mansion. She seemed very nice and didn't seem to mind that lots of people came up to her to tell her how much they love the show.

I ran into then Twins’ 3rd basemen, Kory Koskie at MNSSHP on Halloween 2003. Our sons were both dressed as Buzz Lightyear!

One time in about 1996 I saw Will Friedle who played Eric in Boy meets World.

In 1999 I rode on Maelstrom with Tia Carrere (Wayne's World, True Lies). We didn't say anything to her because whe was with a guide but she got in one of the seats behind us.

OT: When Stewart worked here in Raleigh he interviewed me about a newstory. He was easy going and I enjoyed the interview.

DD and I chased John Stamos halfway around WS once trying to get a glimpse! We saw Marion Jones (at that time the world's fastest woman) in the Xmas store in DTD. That's it for me.

My roommate helped Tim McGraw and Faith Hill with their kids onto Dumbo

I sat in front of kelly Ripa and her husband in Fantasmic.

I met Hulk Hogan and his wife about 6 years ago in front of Small World.

8 years ago I met Dick VanPatton (from Eight is Enough) at EPCOT.

Last year there was one of the guys from the O.C. talking to my friend. (Sorry...dont watch the show so dont know)

I got my pic with Justin Guarini (American Idol) in front of the castle.

I met Stephanie off of Full House at MGM about 15 years ago. She was there for a taping of the Mickey Mouse Club.

Chris Brown (singer) was on Thunder Mountain a few seats in front of me.

Here's a question - where do the celebs stay at WDW? I'd guess that they are somewhere on the monorail, perhaps Poly or GF. Then again, perhaps they're set up somewhere out of the public eye. Still, you have to wonder where the BIG celebs stay and how they manage to enjoy themselves in relative peace...

We saw Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz. We were eating at that restaurant by the Haunted Mansion (Columbia Harbour House???) and they had a room upstairs closed off, security, etc. and they brought them up a set of back stairs.

 

[twinz]

We seen Wayne Bradey (from Whose Line is It Anyway) doing a show for in December 2001 for the Holiday Parade. We watched for a bit but it was packed so we left. That's it for us. I am pretty oblivious when I am in WDW.

 

[cdrn1]

That's it for us. I am pretty oblivious when I am in WDW.

I have to wonder how many are there that we don't notice? One of my DD's lives in Santa Monica and sees celebs fairly frequently but tells me that some of them are barely recognizable in their "normal people" state, i.e. without all the makeup and glamour.

The Undertaker from wrestling was at MK on Saturday.
