I dunno if these count as celebrities...

Ah... and I've met 3 of the guys from Hemlock (they tour with Slipknot & stuff). It helps to live less than a block away from where they live... Awesome band. I just don't know their names.
And I made out with one of the members of Bydeathsdesign (who are supposed to have a video or two on MTV. I dunno, I don't watch TV)... or some band like that. I can't remember, I don't really listen to them. I do know his name though... :p

I ve met Bruce Willis on the sets of Armageddon, and he was very nice and polite and posed for a couple shots with me, then I had a chance to meet Michelle Pfeiffer who graciously gave me an autograph.(had no camera then or I d ve asked her for a pic too)

We had gone to the beach and Matt Damon was there shooting for some movie. Me and a couple friends went over and he was good enough to say Hi and snap a few pics with our group.

When I was in LA, I saw Adam Sandler at Barney's Beanery, Macy Gray at Amoeba Records and Jon Cryer at The Troubador. We didn't talk to Sandler or Gray but we were partying with Jon Cryer a bit. It was his birthday so a friend I was with bought him a drink and then we all rocked out to OK GO, who knew it was his birthday and played a cover of Pretty in Pink for him. That was pretty cool.

I saw Kevin Sorbo, Johnny Bench & Lee Trevino at a celebrity pro-am golf tournament I was catering in Myrtle Beach, SC.

James Earl Jones, Bizarre (from D12), and the washed up band, Firehouse have all stayed at the hotel I currently work at so I've met all of them.

I go to a lot of concerts and have met several bands over the years. Art Alexakis from Everclear (twice), Todd Lewis from The Toadies (several times), all of the Burden Brothers, all of the Foo Fighters, Fat Mike & Eric Melvin from NOFX, OK GO after the aforementioned show at the Troubador.

I also used to know Landon from one of the MTV Real World seasons (I went to college with him. His dorm room was 2 doors down from mine.) & Jordis Unga from Rockstar: INXS because she's from my 'hood & we used to party it up all the time.

My dad grew up across the alley from & went to high school with Hall of Fame baseball player, Paul Molitor (Brewers, Blue Jays, Twins) so I've met him several different times.

And last but not least, when I was younger, my dad took me to a local celebrity pro-am golf tourney and I got to meet & get autographs from... Mean Gene Okerlund, Jesse Ventura, Kirby Puckett, Kent Hrbek, Frank Viola and most of the World Champion 1987 Twins team. Oh, and I met Tony Oliva at a charity softball event my company put on two years ago.


I guess that about sums it up for me.

i saw gene hackman in manhatton about 15 years ago. i was too scared to approach him and was taken aback by his lack of height. i went to school with gary lightbody from snow patrol. incidentally, his nickname in school was needledick. i also met bob probert and played with theo fleury. as well, about ten years ago i met the liverpool players robbie fowler, patrick berger and sami hyppia (the brits'll know who they are).

When I was a kid I used to play football with the ex-Liverpool and England footballer Nick Barmby (although he was a kid at the time as well). He now plays back here at Hull City.

When I was younger I met Hawk & Animal (Wrestlers), When I was in New York I seen P Diddy. Now that I work at a casino and we have several different famous guest stay at our hotel, i've of course met Little Richard, The crew of the Sopranos, (Tony Sirico, Michael Imperioli, Vincent Pastore) Vincent Pastore "Big Pussy"was probley one of the coolest, because I was taking a smoke break and he came up beside me and started talking, his body guard came up to him and he told him to fuck off, and he continued talking, really nice guy. Also Bill Cosby, Ben Roethlisberger, when he was in town shooting a country music video with Poverty 'Red'Neck Hillbillies :D. Someone all of you have heard of Evil Kenival (sp) he stayed at out hotel, and while he was here for one week he recieved to DUI's. That's all that comes to mind right now, I know theres not many more.

What do you do at the casino/hotel? I work at a hotel, my younger bro works at a casino, so I'm just curious.

The only celebrity I ever saw was Tom Wellington (Superman on Smallville). This was a few years back when I was in Vegas at the Hard Rock Cafe Hotel. I was sitting at a roulette table playing and struck up a conversation with the Pit Boss who pointed him out to me.

He was sitting a few tables over from me and is even hotter in person. He was playing blackjack and was surrounded by several blondes. Apparently he goes to Hard Rock all the time.
