Stars at WDW

[trvlgirlmq]

christa devil - I grabbed my sis and started whispering "Oh, my g-d, oh, my g-d". She didn't know who he was and didn't care. Was not a Lost viewer. He probably thought I was having a spasm or maybe he was used to it.

I had another Lost sighting this past April on the North Shore of Oahu. Saw Terry O'Quinn out for a walk. He walked right next to the car while I was sitting in the drivers seat ready to leave. Well I hopped right out but he went in to the restroom. I thought it prudent not to follow. We all got back in the car and after turning on to the main road saw him walking again.

We saw Brett Favre with his kids this past June and Vince Vaughn last year. I think we've seen quite a few celebrities when we've gone, but these two come to mind because they're recent...

I saw Michael Jackson and MacCuley Culkin in '91 at DHS.

Last year we saw Kelly Ripa wondering around the Mitsukoshi Department Store. She had people escorting her around. It was really neat to see.

Several years ago we were dining at Restaurant Marrakesh. As we were eating Marlee Matlin (and her crew) came up to our table. I almost freaked out. We had 3 kiddos at the time. She said we needed to have another to make it even and we said we wanted between 4 and 6 but were on the fence. She said she had 4 and if she could do it then anyone could do it. She then told us to have a good evening. After she walked away I turned to my DH and my IL's and said "you know who that was right?". They were like no. I couldn't believe it. I said "It was the deaf lady who plays on Law and Order". They about flipped out and said "that was so neat".

In 2009 we were there when Rob Blagojevich popped down. He mysteriously appeared the day his indictement was handed down. One of the TV stations had the "inside scoop" that he was at WDW and showed up at his resort (looked like SSR from the little you could see in the report) to ask him about it. The footage was taken around the pool area and his wife kept standing in front of the camera telling the reporter to leave them alone. All the while Rob was smiling and eventually spoke to the reporter. The whole thing was clearly staged to demonstrate he was not concerned about the charges he was going to face. He was gone as quickly as he arrived.

I was staying at SSR at the same time and saw him and his family on the bus from MK. In fact, the bus was shutting the doors and his teenage daughter runs up and has the bus wait for them. They all walked on and nobody said anything to him. He was kind of hard to miss because of his hair. I remember thinking "Have fun, buddy, because you are probably going to a federal prison in the next few years."

In the same week, my husband and I met Ryan Seacrest, Other American Idols, Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise! It was AWESOME!

 

[Wildfire1324]

A number of years ago, as a friend and I were getting off of Thunder Mountain, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith was getting on. He wasn't boarding on the same side as everyone else. He and his family got on from side that everyone else disembarks. Perk of being a rock star I guess. It would have been much cooler if I saw him at the Rock & Roller Coaster!

 

[AlexandAndysMom]

We saw Danny Devito and Rhea Pearlman in the Germany Pavilion at Epcot when I was like 12 (so, years and years ago!). I said something to my mom about her being alot taller in person then on TV, and he leaned over and said 'she just looks taller cause I'm shorter!'

I'll never forget that...they were cracking my family up.

 

[OhioWDWDuo]

We saw Britney Spears at DTD! She was going into House of Blues. It was back when she shaved her head. She was with an entourage but we could still easily see her. People were screaming and waving but she wouldn't slow down or stop.

We also saw Dennis Miller at the Orlando airport.

 

[tink0283]

I saw Carrie Underwood at DHS back in Dec. 2008 a few months before the American Idol experience opened. Me and my DH (then boyfriend) were walking by the attraction and saw all these people crowded around...? We were curious about what was going on so we decided to check it out. Somehow I made my way through all the people and was able to stand right in front and saw that is was Carrie...I got tons of pics! It was pretty cool since she is one of my favorite country artists!

 

[mherb]

We were on our honeymoon the week they had the RnR grand opening. We saw Steven Tyler and Joe Perry doing interviews when we went on the Backlot Tour.

 

[bbb37]

I saw Michael Jackson in August of 2000. My girlfriend was in the college program at the time. One of her friends tipped us off that he was in It's a Small World. We saw him exit, but it was crazy because a crowd had gathered. I took a picture, maybe I'll scan it in if I can find it.

Michael Jackson... beat that.

 

[cyndisun]

We saw Demi Moore and kids (about 10 years ago) at MK. They had a tour guide from the park.

We also saw Hugh Hefner and a bunch of women (big surprise) at Club 33 a few years ago. They had a side room all to themselves.

 

[tinkerbelletreasure]

When I was at Animal Kingdom in March, I rode in the same "train" of Expedition Everest with the Yankees pitcher, Andy Petit.

 

[YodaGirl]

It wasn't on Disney property, but back in 1990, we were driving around (either to a park or to DTD area - whatever it was called back then).

We saw Warren Beatty in a limo. Apparently the "Dick Tracy" premiere was going on somewhere...MGM, maybe?

 

[disneyluvrs4]

we saw Paris Hilton on one of our trips getting on POTC ride.

 

[Shelly D.]

I haven't seen any "major" stars (so jealous of the Josh Holloway sighting!). But at DL we did see Fantasia from American Idol a few years ago. She was there to sing for the Christmas parade taping, but we saw her shopping at the DL Hotel gift shop.

When I was a kid, we were at DL around the opening of Splash Mountain. They were filming a TV spot starring the actor who played Ernest (can't think of his name) in movies and commercials - "know what I mean Vern?"

 

[Huff]

Tom Cruise & Penelope Cruz and kids
Kobe Byrant
One of the Jones Bros. & Demi Lavato

Honestly I don't understand people that crowd around them and gawk. They're just people for cripes sake!

When Tom Cruise was there we got stuck in line for quite some time while they cleared out Soar'n until his group was out of the building.

Kobe Byrant was nice and waited with others in the alternative enterance line.

Jones & Demi Lavato had a large crowd of gawking kids following them everywhere. We avoided whatever ride they were near.

That's awesome. I love Danny DeVito..."It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" is my favorite tv show!
