Celebrities in Universal

[BarbaraMB]

You hear about celebrity sightings in WDW. Has anyone encountered any famous people in the parks or at the hotels?

I don't know exactly who they are, but my parents were familiar with them. They were little guys...but well known for being in real estate commercials or something like that?? They were on those expensive scooter type things, and were staying at the Royal Pacific. We rode on the same both as them to and from universal.

We rode the Mummy with Brendan Fraser and Arnold Vosloo. That was neat. I'm trying to get the ride photo from this video

but can't seem to capture it.

How Cool I'd love to ride anywhere with Brenden Frasier

Anyway - my best friend was staying at the Royal Pacific July's ago, and the (at the time) popular group Nsync was staying at that very hotel. They received inside scoop on what time to be at the pool area so they could get a close up look, but unfortunately, the rain ruined that opportunity. Oh well.

Sorry about the mess up - my previous post should read "2 July's ago". My bad.

Numerous times. Usually it's just sightings, but I have loaded several celebs...

Last year we stayed at the RPR and saw Ted Nugent on his cell phone as we were walking outside to the pool area. We went into the gift shop by the pool and he walked by and I looked right at him and said...

HI!

waving like a lunatic, too.

Hey, at least he waved and said 'hi' back!

After the first Survivor, I saw Jenna and Gervase there. They were sitting on the street talking to people and waiting to film something.

Not too exciting,, but we were there for the first Macy's Christmas parade there in December, and the weatherman from Good Morning American was the Grand Marshall ,, I have totally blanked out his name,, but he's the guy that wishes "happy birthday" to those who are 100 years old etc,,,lol. I guess if I squinted really hard, and tilted my head a bit,, I could have mistaken him for Brenden Frasier,

2 weekends ago when we went, Dick Cheney was staying at the Portofino. They had police mounted on horseback all around the resort. They had police going down the hall with german shephards. It was crazy.

Last time we were at Universal, Rosie O'Donnell was having a private party for her entourage. Limo after limo poured into the park. They closed the park early, and we all had to leave - what a ripoff!
