Famous People You have met While at WDW

[WendyMichaelJohn]

Just remember guys, they are human and like to have vacations too...truth be known, their lives are probably way more stressful than any of ours.

Uh-huh. A show of hands...how many here beg to differ?

Hulk Hogan in Pleasure Island @ Mannequins during the time when he was filiming "Thunder In Paradise". This was when he was recently off the juice so he was not at his biggest, but he is still huge. His wife was there with him also and he had his trademark bandanna on watching the Show on stage from the 2nd level. This was during Spring Break in 1992...

That man in the red who looks like Santa is there ALL the time!!!!!!! He is the reason I became friends with another DISer. She posted her vacation pictures on line and while I was looking at them I noticed in the background of her Spaceship Earth picture Santa was on his scooter..... So after PMing her to tell her about the man in the red suit we continued talking and became friends and met for the first time last December at MVMCP. WAY COOL
A couple years ago we were wandering through Osborn Lights and I saw him sitting along the curb with Mrs. Clause so after many minutes of decision making I finally snuck over to him and asked if he would be offended if I brought my DD then 7 over to him so she could meet the "real" Santa. He just looked at me really funny and says " We are the real Mr. and Mrs. Clause. hehe.... My daughter thought that was the coolest thing that Santa was taking a quick vacation before his trip around the world!

I was there in June at DTD and was walking and saw this same guy sitting on one of the benches. I said to myself, "If that's not santa, I don't know who is"

Like several other people on the board.. this post isn't about someone I saw at Disney..

I used to live in a town in KY- somewhat small... but it's where Rosemary Clooney lived and I guess George Clooney used to spend a lot of time with her.

Well, there was a tiny bakery downtown that my family really liked..and George Clooney brought Alicia Silverstone there one day after they were done filming that Batman movie..

The article in the paper said he'd been having their transparent pies sent to the set but she gained so much weight the director told George he had to stop- so he just took her to the bakery himself when they were done!

What are "transparent pies"?

Hey neighbor!

It's a kind of custard pie... sort of like a pecan pie without the pecans.

I'm about 95% sure that DW and I sat behind Terrence Howard (the actor from Hustle and Flow, Crash, and Ray) and his family in the Mickey section of Fantasmic! on Tuesday evening, August 23. I can't say for absolutely sure, since I was hesitant to ask him (very awkward), but I think I heard someone refer to him as "Terry". Anyway, if it wasn't him, it was his twin...

Oh my stars! That sounds AWESOME! Got any good recipes?

I've never made it, (it's usually a bakery item) but I'm sure if you do a google search you can find one!
Happy eating!

We were at the 25th anniversery of wdw and you couldn't go 2 feet without seeing someone like the kids from Home Improvement to Hillary Clinton. But the funniest thing is I just wanted to see Michael Eisner and Roy Disney in person. They were speaking at MK for the rededication but it was soo crowded that we could only see it on big screens through out the park. After the festivites we went over to Boadwalk because it was the grand opening and we just purchased some dvc points. We were standing in the lobby admiring the Carousel above the circular couch and someone said "It is the replica of MK carosel'. We turned around and there was Michael Eisner, Roy Disney and Mike(did not last too long) Ovtiz. They were so nice we had our pictures taken with each one , got there autographs and had a real nice conversation with them.

This past March we were waiting for the Limo of RnR when it comes around with 2 people already in the first row. Said to myself...hmm.. looks familiar...but didn't figure it out. We were in the 3 row. The second row was left empty which I also thought was strange. When we get off the ride we see the couple speaking to the CM and DS is looking at another CM's pins when it comes to me. It was Michele Kwan. They didn't have anyone sit in the seat behind them so that there wouldn't be anyone in the picture.

Saw Donny Osmond and his family there, and also saw Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen.
Just remembered another one, we saw Glenn Close at the Hoop dee Doo Revue about 9 years ago right after 101 Dalmations came out. To this day whenever we go to Pioneer Hall my dd, says "remember we saw Cruella De Vil there?"

I stayed across from Steven Tyler at the Boardwalk when RnRC opened. And I bumped into Debbie Gibson at the Mission:Space media event. I sang "Only in My Dreams" to everyone for the rest of the evening.

Debbie Gibson is my all time favorite biggest celebrity crush. I am jealous.
