I thought it would be interesting to hear what celebs you have seen while at Disney World..And not in parades.. Just walking around like normal folks (if that is possible!). Ha ha

I have only seen one and that was Nancy Kerrigan (sp?) soon after the Olympics. She was riding Jungle Cruise.
 
We saw Wayne Brady last December.... I guess he was there for the filming of the Christmas Parade. Regardless, we walked right by him!!!!!
 
Oprah was jogging by the Wilderness Lodge, Gail on a bike and of course a half dozen escorts................They waved to us :D
 
We saw Howie Mandell & Tom Cruise 10 or 12 years ago I think it was it was a long time back now at Pleasure Island.
It was soon after they had opened maybe the first couple of years.
We heard all this screaming and looked behind us and Howie & Tom were about 4 feet from us trying to get away from the crowd of screaming girls mostly..
I think we spent the rest of the night at the Adventure's Club. It was great back then...

Wayne Brady walked by us at MGM near Ariel show and the a couple of days later he was the narraitor at CP at Epcot.

The wiggles walked right by us at MK behind the Castle. We said we loved them and they waved and of course I took quick picture before they were gone.

Other then that I saw Regis' wife, Joy, getting out of the GF elevator and I saw Regis and Kelly at MK for the Xmas parade tapping.
 
My mom swears she saw Chelsea Clinton and her boyfriend walking down Main Street in the Magic Kingdom when we were there in May. I didn't see her though.
 
Two years ago Kobe Bryant and then pregnant wife walked right by DH and I. They said hi we said hi back and kept on walking!

A couple of day before that we saw Robert Horry his wife and children while we were standing at the well beside the Castle in the MK. They also said hi to us.

Later on in the week we ran into Brian Grant of the Miami Heat in the lobby of the Coronado Springs.

I guess NBA player have fun at DW too!!
 
Penn and Teller in 95 while they were taping some special. Didn't know who they were at the time.
 
We met Steven Tyler of Aerosmith on the Boardwalk. He was very nice. He took a photo with my niece and gave her an autograph. Pretty cool!!
 
Art Linkletter at the Disneyland Hotel Concierge Lounge in 2002. I know not WDW but at leat DL. He just came by and said hi to my 2yr DD. As my wife and I where getting treats for her. My DD must be one for the celebrities. In Feb. we took her to the Y for Swim classes and on the way out she had to get a drink. So she went running for the water cooler. We caught up to her there and Carrotop was helping her get a drink. He was in town for a show that night. Man is he short.
 
We saw Eddie Murphy and his family at MK last year in August. They were riding the Jungle Cruise. They were let on at the handicapped entrance and waved to everyone when they passed in their boat.
 
June 2002 Joey Fatone (insync) in line for POC singing a pirates life for me.
April 2003 Michael (the guy who fell in the fire on Survivor) Getting off Dinosaur. I think they held the ride up for him It took us about 35 min to get on when the wait line said 10Min. If this is the case boo on wanna be celebrities.
 
- The kid that played Doogie Hauser MD @ Pleasure Island Adventures Club

- Michael Jackson and one of his child "friends" riding Peter Pan @ MK. They closed the ride to the public for him to ride several times.

- Prince Ramaydan of Saudi Arabia @ Swan
 
Winona and Ashley Judd right beside us at Crystal Palace. Ashley was waiting in line for Piglet as anyone else would. We got them on video without realizing it as we were video taping our Birthday Celebration at our table.

Well, at least nobody can doubt it happened, can they? LOL. That's cool.
 
Saw the Wiggles at Mk one december. They passed right by and I said to DH, "I swear that was the Wiggles." He just looked at me like I was nuts, but then later we found out they were there for the taping of the Christmas parade.

Also, when I was little we went to DL a lot as we lived close by. One day we saw a guy who looked EXACTLY like Luke from General Hospital. He was wearing a T shirt that said, "NO, I am NOT Luke." My mother swears to this day that it was him and he just wore that shrit to throw people off!
