Has Anyone Ever Seen A Celebrity In Wdw

Our first trip we were at the Hoop Dee Doo with Princess Diana and her sons. William (10 at the time) actually participated in the show.

We saw Brittany Spears and Joey Mcintire (but that was a publicity thing)
our 2nd trip

A few years ago my kids with their significant others met Rob and Amber from Survivor and the Amazing Race (huge to me which is silly, but they were my favorite!) and we have a great picture of my daughter with the two of them.

Our last trip, my DD and I saw George Lucas at Beaches & Cream with his family and she talked to him briefly.

DD & I will be back in September, here's hoping?!...:yay:

awesome, we saw Deorge Lucas at Exposition hall at MK in FEb of
2006
 
We saw Michael Jordan at the MK with his wife and kids and 5000 CMs and Ludicris at the Grand Floridian. We also saw Benny Parsons at the airporton the way home
 
while on our honeymoon DW and I seen Tara Lipinski in June of 2000 coming out of the the Rock N Roller Coaster at the same time as us. me being the ever present sports geek said to my wife look there is tara lipinski, then a crowd of 6 or 7 12yr old boys started chasing after her(hormones in full effect). we did manage to get a hello, a smile and a wave.
 

Four years ago I saw Shaquille O'neal and his children. Mob was following him through Liberty Square area. Not a fan, but he's hard to miss!
 
Not a big celebrity, but a few years back, when my wife (fiancee then) were at MK, we saw Gheorghe Muresan (sp?). He's a former basketball player (from Romania) and was in the movie My Giant with Billy Crystal.

It was funny, because the guy is absolutely enormous (height wise). I think he's like 7'7", or something like that. Anyway, if you looked at the crowd in front of us, it was a mass sea of heads, and then this guy whose entire torso was above it all.

The funniest, though, was his poor kid. He put his kid on his shoulders as he was walking around... I kept thinking of how terrified that kid must be, seeing as he's so far up there.


I've seen him a few times where we live. He hosts a basketball camp each year. He's SUPER SUPER tall. Also seen him at the MCI (Verzion center) down in DC.
 
While staying at the Boardwalk 2 yrs ago, we literally almost ran into Haley Joel Osment walking down the hall with a girl on each arm! He was there doing the Candlelight Processional.

The same trip we saw one of the Olsen twins at MK. She looked like a spoiled little brat!
 
Saw Samantha Brown outside of the Hoop Dee Doo. Very nice lady. My wife went up to her to tell her what a fan she was and she offered my wife a picture with her. Talked to our 6 year old too.
 
Saw Michael J. Fox and his family at the Finding Nemo show at AK in June. Said hello and was very nice.
 
Didn't see this, but if I did, I think the entire Universe would just end:

We were there at the start of the "Happiest Celebration on Earth" back in 2005. We saw Regis and Kelly, Rob and Amber, Wilmer Valderrama, and Tom
Bergeron.
 
I like to think that I am too cool to care. Infact, we just got back from NYC. We stayed at the Ritz Central Park and that place was loaded with celebs. Rode in the same elevator with Kate Beckinsale and her family twice but who is counting. We even got into a cab that she had had exited but really...........who's counting??;):rolleyes1

At disney we have seen tons of celebs. This past ESPN weekend, David Robinson and Michelle Kwan were at the AKL kilamajaro club. The boys meet many athletes at MGM. No big deal to me really.

A few weeks ago, we ran into CORBIN BLEU (BLUE??) from High School Musical and I lost it!!:banana: :banana: He was walking through MGM with his Dad. The kids had their picture taken and I jumped in too!! But I was really only excited for my kids to meet him.:rolleyes1
 
I was at MK in April 2006 when they were taping the season finale for America's Funniest Videos. They had a stage set up right after the train station when you first come in. We saw Tom Bergeron (sp?) several times on stage warming the crowd up. We did not stay for the taping of the program because it started after the fireworks and we had to drive home the next morning.
 
Well about a month ago I saw Corbin Bleu at Disney's typhoon Lagoon. It was June 15th..07
 
We also saw Michael J. Fox getting a VIP tour at IOA and Bo Duke (original Dukes of Hazzard) (John Schneider) at SeaWorld.
 
We saw Michael Eisner watching 'Wishes' at MK on 1/1/04. I got a picture. During that trip we also saw Kirsten Storms (Xenon on the Disney channel movies, used to be on Days of our Lives, now on General Hospital) shopping at MK. She was holding up a Tshirt and saying "do you have this in a extra small"?
Robin M.
 
Unfortunatley I have'nt seen anyone famous during my trips but my brother did......he saw Michael Jackson.

My brother was shopping in Main St (not sure which shop) and he noticed a commotion, lots of people huddled around.
He decided to go take a look and it was Michael Jackson buying watches.

He just pointed at the watches he fancied saying "I'll take that one and that one and that one also". The CM wrapped all of his purchases and handed him his packages and he went to leave without paying (he must have minders.assistants who deal with the cash).
The CM had to remind him that he hadn't paid lol.

He caught all of this with his video camera and we watch it now and again.
 
This is a fun thread to read!

We saw Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos at MK in January 2006 right before Spectomagic...they werev just casually walking in the park...very friendly and "normal" people!!
