[Joann]

Not at Disney but I have met tons of bands... my son and daughter go to school with Mike vanderjets little boy he plays for some Nfl team ( hubby knows hehe) but lives by my daughters school and Elvis Stoko eats at my friends diner all the time where I met him one day as he was getting his take out

Oakville's Mike Vanderjagt, is the kicker for the Indianapolis Colts.
I have never seen any famous people at Disney, but I am usually not paying close attention, so I wouldn't notice anyway. My cousin was the Captain of the Calgary Flames, and played for Vancouver Canucks, St Louis Blues, Florida Panthers, and the San Jose Sharks as well, so I have met several NHLers. We live in Cottage country, so a few vacation around here.

As we were leaving the TTC during our Christmas trip of 2004, we saw Lawrence Taylor with his girlfriend. I'm sure he met her at church.

I saw Jason Alexander a few weeks ago at the GF.

I saw Jason Alexander a few weeks ago at the GF.

He and his wife are really good friends with my brother & sister-in-law (SIL & his wife have been friends for a long time). We've never met him, but my nephew's barmitzvah is this spring, so maybe...

I have seen:
Steve Young backstage on Main Street
Manny Rameriez in the SADCT parade
Wayne Brady for the Happiest Celebration opening
I just saw Joey Fatone on my last trip on January 3rd. It was at the SADCT parade and I got to sit next to him! I sat on the same curb as him!

it was probably kelly rippa you saw at the animal kingdom on the 28th because we saw her there that day. we actually rode triceratop spin with her family. we didn't notice them until we were getting off and i passed a little girl that didn't want to get off. someone called the little girl, named lola, and i recognized the voice.....i looked over and it was kelly rippa!!!she is a skinny little thing!! she had on big glasses and a hat. i just smiled at one of the ladies she was with and she smiled back at me, you hate to bother people when they are trying to enjoy family time. she had 2 disney people (i think they were wearing blue blazers and maybe red pants?? can't remember, but they had disney name tags) sure wish i could get some disney helpers to help cart around my 3 kids !!!

The only famous person that we saw/met was Micheal Aisner while in America in EPCOT. Other than that just the usual group of famous characters - Mickey, Minnie and such

I think I heard Kelly Ripa say on the show one day last week that she had just been to DW over the weekend. I think she said her parents were with her and the kids. I heard it in passing as I was busy doing something and didn't pay too much attention.

Not at WDW but DCL on the Magic I saw Kevin Nash the wrestler. He was huge!

 

[Glendamax]

On my way to WDW, I saw Blair Underwood in the airport. He is even more gorgeous in person. On the way home, I saw Al Roker in one of the airport's elevators.

We saw Celine Dion at the Magic Kingdom this past Thursday (2/2). I was waiting for my husband to get off Splash Mountain and there she was. It was weird. She stopped right in front of me and it took me a minute to realize it was her. She looked just like any other mom enjoying a day with her family (and bodygaurds).

We flew into the Stansted airport in London so we could go to The Lion King and we walked all the way to the exit with David Beckham. I know it is not DW but still I was going to see the Lion King!!

Kelly Ripa grew up in a town close to mine. My Family (Aunt&Uncle/cousins) are close to her family. I think her Dad is a politician/freeholder (??) with my cousin. It's funny cause Im always thinking of asking them to introduce me to Kelly, not for Kelly but to maybe get hooked up with some Disney "perks" cause we all know she's always there. Im sure she's a fan like the rest of us, but she probably gets comp'd from ABC a lot. Boy that would be nice. and I dont even need an escort!~

 

[orljustin]

I did a GMR show for Sally Struthers on Thanksgiving Day in '93. Saw Bruce and Demi walking down Hollywood Blvd. once. I hung out with Martha Quinn in her trailer while working on Star Search. Also met Ed briefly... Mohammed Ali was at the other private table in the Wine Room at the CA grill.

 

[Caylin]

Kelly Ripa, Regis, and Kathy Lee and Minnie Driver at the Jungle Cruise.
Scotty Pippin at the Mansion.
I thought they would all be taller. Except Scotty Pippin. He towered over me.

 

[islandbeachnut]

I met John Stamos at the Contemporary where he was staying. My girlfriend and I have a picture with him.

 

[diznyfanatic]

This past Christmas trip, we saw Danny Bonaduce walking around at MK with his kids. Not the same thing, but we got to see John Stamos at the Candlelight Proccessional at Epcot this year too.
