Most famous person you have met?

[WDWBarb]

when and where did you meet Reedus?!?!?

I have met him twice. Once my DH, DD and I were entering a hotel and he was standing outside smoking. This was first season of TWD and DH and DD were freaking out. So I walked up and started talking to him. That is SO not like me but he seemed so approachable (and he was). He was the nicest guy. He talked to us for awhile and then asked if we wanted a picture. I took one on my phone of Norman, DH and DD and then he asked if I wanted to be in a pic. I told him no (hate pictures of myself!) but thanked him for the offer. He hugged me and DD before going inside.

The next time was at a con and Norman was much more famous by that point. We had our pictures taken with Reedus and Michael Rooker. Norman kept smelling DD's hair (she was 18 at this point....but I laughingly reminded him that he was one month older than her mother) and Rooker picked her up and carried her around. I have an awesome picture of that.

Hmmm...met Bobby Sherman when I was ten. My plan was to leap up and kiss him as he signed my autograph but right before I leaped...my Daddy walked through the door!

Next, was George Plimpton on an airplane. I thought he was someone famous and asked if he was Ralph Nader. He responded 'no' and proceeded to tell me all sorts of things he had done to contribute to his being famous, but I had never heard his name. He later came up to me at the airport, naming more famous feats and I just kept shaking my head saying,"Nope..sorry, I still haven't heard of you."

At a concert, Ricky Nelson walked past me and kissed me on the mouth!

I was walking on the beach in Malibu and Ryan O'Neal was out with his dog. As I walked by, I reached down to pet the golden retriever and it tried to bite me! We spoke a bit. He was a lot more wrinkled in person than on the People mag cover the following week.

Well, if you grew up in the 80's and remember the Pac Man Fever song you might consider them famous lol. My parents were friends with Buckner & Garcia. They were at our house playing Euchre the day after they were on Solid Gold

I met Bobby Brown after a concert (a few years after he wasn't very famous any more). We talked about his song from Ghostbusters 2, because what else would you talk to him about??

And Jim Gaffigan after a show-hilarious!

I was on a flight home from London with Sandra Day O'Connor. We didn't get a chance to speak...she was in Business and I was in 1st! .

James Brown (at an LA hotel), the cast of Seinfeld (friend was on the show), Alan Rickman (at The Ivy in London), Catherine McPhee (at the LA Farmers Market), Walter Payton (at a bar in NYC), Counting Crows (in a DC Halloween costume shop and they invited me to be a special guest at their concert that night) and a few weeks ago I spent 30 minutes in line at Disneyland chatting with the guys in the band Hot Chelle Rae (I had no idea who they were). They were really friendly, even challenging my DD (7) to a push up contest and just acting silly with her.

As a side note, my niece's picture has gone viral this week (was even on TMZ, Access Hollywood etc.) because Taylor Swift asked if she could take a picture with her during a family photo shoot at a park in Nashville. The photographer posted it online and people went crazy over it, lol.

David Nail (country singer) on Friday night at a show in New Jersey, I had VIP and meet and greet passes. <3

For me, it would be Laura Linney - she was at a graduation luncheon at a private school I was working as part of the catering.

I went to school with Elizabeth Perkins(on Weeds, Big). Shared my bus seat with her(hers was the last stop so she always had to squish in as a 3rd person on a seat), as well as was in gym class with her.

I know a man who is well into his 90's. He has met and talked to Babe Ruth, Mother Teresa and Pope John Paul II. I find that mix very interesting. He may be the only person who has ever met those 3.

I only met like 4 famous people in my life. But the most well known person I met was Tony Curtis who was friends with one of my professors in college.

The other two famous people I met was the creator of law and order svu and Mike Wolfe from American pickers. I also met the guy from the TV show "Coach" who also does the voice of Patrick Star on SpongeBob SquarePants.
