Celebrities who you've personally seen/met...

[rnrguy]

I worked on the Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay in the late 80's and 90's. From time to time entertainers (primarily country acts) would come down to perform free concerts as part of the USO tour and would actually interact with the base residents so I had the opportunity to meet, and talk to, people like Randy Travis, Charlie Daniels, The Judds, Lee Greenwood, Carlene Carter, Nicolette Larson and the 70s group (2/3rds of them, anyway) America. All of them were very personable, friendly and outgoing. And, best of all, their concerts were free.

There were also groups of athletes, mostly retired, who came down under the sponsorship of Miller Lite, who took part in some Base activities such as Golf & Fishing tournaments and as awards presenters at the annual Base athletic awards banquets. I had the opportunity to play golf with Bill Bergey (Eagles & Bengals), Bob Tucker (NY Giants) and 7'4" Tom Burleson from NC State & the NBA among many others. Needless to say, they all had "war" stories to tell, the majority of which were both hilarious and filthy. And the best thing about that group was they brought the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders with them.

And, finally, when I was flying from Boot Camp to Ft. Leonard Wood, I was in the airport that was then known as Idlewild (now Kennedy), in NYC, and I saw Kim Novak, wearing her trademark color, a lavender blouse and black slacks. Yum Yum! Although it was 45 years ago I remember it like it was yesterday.

madonna in a restaurant about ten years ago she was very nice sat at the table next to her and we talked a bit, she was very fit not an ounce of fat. I also have seen and talked to Scarlett Johannson we seem to like some of the same restaurants, she is a real NYC girl, when she walks around its jeans, tee shirt , sweats seems to be pretty down to earth, and drop dead beautiful

Mine is about me humilating myself in front of Halle Berry and 20 paparazzi...

I used to work in a clothes shop a few years ago in Bond Street in London, for those who don't know Bond Street is a REALLY upmarket shooping street (think Rodeo Drive/5th Avenue).

Anyway, I was on a break, having a cigerette, looking at all of these paparazzi sitting across the street outside the Prada store. I don't think anything of it, happens all them time there. Just as a stamped out my cigerette Halle Berry walks out, right as rain, into the middle of this paparazzi clusterfuck, cool as anything. She walks down the street, totally cool. I'm in awe, first off, she looks better in real life (which is saying something) and second she just moves through this gaggle of pap's like shes Moses parting the Red Sea, totally oblivous to them.

As she is walking away from me down the street, I decide that I will walk down my side of the street to see what happens. I'm sort of walking level with her on the other side of the street. Suddenly she moves away from the pap's and starts to walk across the street RIGHT TOWARDS ME, my dreams are coming true at this point, shes gonna walk over and tell me how much she wants me to... anyway... she was actually walking to Gucci right behind me.

She is about 6 feet away from me, walking right at me, I'm totally entranced. As she is getting closer she looks up, and at me, at this point I can die happy by the way, a moment of serene... BAM! I walk straight into a lampost... REALLY HARD! I'm dazed and everything, I'm bleeding... she, quite nicely, tries to not laugh (she doesn't quite manage it)... this whole time that I have been having my imaginary 'moment' with Ms. Berry, I have forgottan about the paparazzi... there are 20 of them standing on the other side of the street LAUGHING THEIR ASSES OFF! All taking pictures... so *shivers*.. humiliating...

I worked in political campaigns for several years and first ladies usually work that "rubber chicken" circuit. Prior to that, I also worked in broadcast journalism. Between the two, I've met Lady Bird Johnson, Pat Nixon, Betty Ford, Rosalyn Carter, Nancy Reagan (my fav, hands down), and Barbara Bush (the current George's mother, she's funny). Naturally, I've met lots of politicians, but they're usually boring, except for former Buffalo Bills QB Jack Kemp and current North Carolina U.S. Senator Elizabeth Dole. They were both really down to earth and very nice.

Been fishing with Garth brooks 7 or 8 times. My father and him are pretty good friends, but only see eachother now about three times a year. Both of their father's where close back in the day as well. I hate country music, so it's really not like hanging out with a celebity to me. And I've never seen him wear a cowboy hat, he's always in a ball cap.

I met Goldberg at a Wal-Mart in Tulsa Oklahoma buying 'Only The Strong' on DVD. He was alot nicer then I thought he would be, and spoke with me for awhile. I asked if he would be coming to TNA in the future, and he shruged and said "you never know".

I met Hilary Duff almost a month ago now when she came to Las Vegas for a concert. (8/18/07)

She's tiny! About 5' flat, but really nice! She's also a lot prettier than any picture could show.

Also met her mom Susan and her bodyguard Troy.
