Famous People You have met While at WDW

[Laura_Lewis]

wellllllll I never have acutally MET anyone Famous but I was there in 1995 to see Bobby Brown get arrested at PI . I think he started trouble in either Planet hollywood or some placce in PI and was in the Patrol car screaming and cursing . Oh and Later on I had heard he had relived himself in the Patrol car. What a guy!!! Such a role model huh?

Too funny - you saw Bobby Brown being arrested for hitting a co-worker of mine at PI! Didn't feel too sorry for this person though, he was a bit of a tyrant and known to be a nasty person particularly when he was drinking. I wasn't there, but rumor also has it that this person may have started the argument with Bobby Brown. it IS a small world after all...

We saw John Stamos, Regis and Kelly, stars from "Faith and Hope" and "Rodney" all during the taping of the Christmas parade on Dec. 4, 2004!
Man, John Stamos is definately not hard on the eyes I felt like a teenager when I saw him!!!

I've never understood the fascination with celebrity.

Why people get all hot and bothered over meeting someone famous is completely beyond my comprehension.

Why did you come on this thread then?
People are enjoying reading and sharing stories and you "pop" in just to what????....make others feel bad because they do enjoy celebrities. Too many negative comments are being posted on DIS threads for no apparent reason....just mean spirited.

On our JUne 05' trip we saw Warwick Davis ( had to look up the name) He was the little person ( I hope that is PC) in Willow, and Proffessor Flitwick in all the Harry Potter movies and Star Wars movies etc. They were staying at the Beach Club where we were. He was with his wife and child. We didn't bother them but they seemmed very personable.

I like Warwick Davis. Just out of curiousity, is his wife and child small too?

In 2002 we saw Micheal Jackson in the World of Disney store at Down town disney. He was in our particular room we were shopping in. His presence spread like wild fire and before we knew it that secton was packed. We left that part of the store without meeting him and continued our shopping with no crowds which is a treat in that store in mid July!! He was really only signing childrens authograph books only...

Last month (May '05) we saw Vincent D'Onofrio from Law and Order Criminal Intent walking on the Pangani Forest Exploration Trail. He was carrying his young son and had his teenage daughter with him. They did have a cm guide that ended up taking them through a backdoor entrance to the safari. We were the only ones near them but I refused to take a picture despite my husbands pleading. They deserve a vacation too. I did finally snap a pick of the back of his head behind a tree branch as they were being led away. Hey, I know who I saw .

The funny thing was, the entire trip my husband kept telling me that I wasnt speaking loud enough for him to hear. So we are walking right behind Vincent eating our ice creams and my husband tries to whisper who is in front of us. So I very sarcastically and very loudly exclain "what are you whispering? I cant hear you!" At that, Vincent D'Onofrio with his sleeping child on his shoulder turned right around and stared at me. I quickly got what DH was trying to say, smiled, and shoved that ice cream cookie sandwich back into my mouth.

wow i saw a couple of threads with Micheal Jackson in disney... lol (i don't mean anything by this if you take this the wrong way )

I assume we saw a celebrity and his wife earlier this year, because they were being escorted by a uniformed CM and the "celebrity" looked annoyed when I looked at him, but he and his wife didn't look the least bit familiar. I go often enough that you would think I'd see somebody famous....on the other hand, I don't watch TV (too hooked on books, Ebay and the DISboards!), so I may see a lot of celebrities who I don't recognize!

Believe it or not I would pass up seeing Johnny Depp to see Orlando Bloom....sigh!!!!!!

We saw Jump 5 from a distance at Animal Kingdom. I didn't know who they were buy my child did.

We are usually so wrapped up in our vacation that we have probably missed tons of famous people....LOL!

This wasn't at Disney, but my family and I were at Universal in Cali. and we were walking through City Walk about 8 years ago when we saw Harry Anderson of Night Court walking into the Star War's shop. My aunt went and said hi to him and wanted him to turn around and wave to our video camera but he wouldn't and told her he was here on vacation with his family. He wasn't very nice about it though... I got a bad impression from him. He was always so nice on the show!!

We saw Lance Bass from N'Sync walking near the Dole Whip stand in MK a few weeks ago. There was a tour guide leading him and about 5 friends around.

last month we were at the AKL - our first nite we were having a bit to eat in the concierge lounge and i turn to my wife and say -- "look at that guy- he looks just like charlie from Lost" -- about 15 minutes later my wife goes to get more food and comes back and says "that IS the guy from Lost!" so i go up to talk to him (dominic monahgan) and with him was Evangeline Lily - also of Lost! i was shocked to see her with him- not to mention she is gorgeous! the next AM we do the Sunrise Safari and later that morning we see the two of them on the regular kilimanjaro safari! wonder why they didn't do SS! i saw her a few times and she couldn't have been nicer- very down to earth. him, i'm not so sure-- maybe shy
also saw Kelly Ripa later that day coming out of the Asanti Suite ($2400/ nite)!
