so here's my funny "star" story..living in california, I've met alot of "famous" people doing charity work or selling statewide propositions. BUT my best one and (in hindsight) funny one is when I met Jerry Springer. Thats right, the crazy talk show guy. I was travelling for work from sf to charleston and had to change planes in atlanta. I was 5 months pregnant and had a heightened sense of smell. The guy sitting next to me on the first leg smelled so bad (to me) that I spent most of the flight standing and talking to the flight attendants. Well, when I got off the plane I went to get a snack in between my next flight. It was then I discovered that my wallet was gone. I had it on the plane because I bought a headset...back in the day when you had to pay...so I went back to the plane and the flight attendants helped me look (thinking it was on the floor at my seat) but it wasn't there. I didn't know what to do as I was on a business trip. So poor pitiful me sat and cried in the terminal while customer service made sure I could get on my next flight w/o ID. A man came up and sat next to me, put his arm around me and asked if he could be of any help. I told him my sob story and that the airlines were helping me out, but thanks anyway. He walked over to the CS counter and checked on me and then came back and said he was sorry that happened and wanted to give me $20 so I had some cash. I said no thanks, but he insisted. It was then that I looked up from my pathetic cry to see that it was Jerry Springer. I sobbed out, your Jerry Springer and he laughed and said yes, so take my $20 I can afford it. Then he walked me to my gate and said goodbye.
So even though, I lost my cash, credit cards, the ultrasound pictures of my daughter, I flew onto charleston a happy camper. It reaffirmed my faith that anyone including "celebrity" could be kind.
So there's my best celeb story. Hope you all have a good night. Tomorrow is "croptoberfest" and I'll be scrapbooking all day!
