umm.....lets see:
I met Maxwell--My mom was a huge fan and years ago when I was about 5 or 6 (I'm 14 now) my mom took me downtown to see him perform and he picked me up and was talking to us, but since I was soo young, I didn't say a word and I was sorta creeped out some random stranger came and picked me up!!
also.....
Chico Debarge......he's not really as "famous" anymore, but our families are close and I went to school with his niece & nephew (but not in the same class....they were in Special Education classes) and boy could they sing!!!
Soulja Boy & Arab....lol, I met him at a Burger King in Mississippi while on vacation...
The Winans....My aunt is good friends w/ CeCe Winans, so I've met them..
Usher/Michael Jackson's Choreographer (I cannot remember his name for my life!!!lol)...His cousin was a teacher at my elementary school and we had this big assembly where he came down and danced for us and we danced and just talked about following our dreams and having fun with it....I later found out that my other aunt was in a dance crew (think You Got Served or America's Next Best Dance Crew) with him and they were childhood friends.
Floyd Mayweather....very conceited. His family is close with mine....Anyway, he came up to my old middle school when I went there and when some of the students started screaming when he came in, he ignored us and instead of speaking he pulled out his 2 cellphones and started talking. Then, he started bragging but he did encourage us to stand up for what is right, and then he grabbed 4 people out of the audience to play double-dutch and gave them $100 each. He continued on bragging, then gave 4 other kids $100. Very coinceited, at least to me!
Paul Collins (famous artist)--My step-grandfather, also an artist grew up with him and our family would also go up to his center often for my sister to perform in front of him with friends.
lol....My family (especially my grandmother OMG) know what seems like a lot of celebrities to me and it's kinda cool hearing these stories about these people when they were younger.....
oh yeah, I forgot: E-40 (rapper)...My mom's godmom's cousin, Toni Braxton (singer)my godbrother's cousin, though I never met her....lol, lots of Motown people....I've got family all over Detroit and we're a huuge family! |
