I spoke with Elliott Gould on the phone when I worked for tech support for Adelphia.
I sat on Fred Smerlas's knee, next to Joe Devlin (Buffalo Bills) when I was in girl scouts.
I touched Big John Stud's arm (WWF Wrestling).
I met Mark-Paul Gosselaar (Saved by the bell, NYPD Blue) at the Auto-Rama and got an autograph.

I so jealous of all of you and your big long lists of famous people! Sometimes I wish I was somewhere other than the middle of Kansas

I DID just recently meet someone though and I have to say it wasn't a very pleasant experience!

Last weekend, I was at work (a grocery store) and man stopped me and asked where the ice was. I looked up and it was BILL MURRAY! (His brother lives here in Manhattan) I ran upstairs and told the store assistant manager (Rod) that Bill Murray was in the store. Rod got all excited and flew downstairs to see him. He walked up to him, reached out to shake his hand and asked him if he was Bill Murray. Bill looked at Rod, smirked, and said "Well, it looks like someone took their stupid pill this morning!"

Rod was so embarrassed he didn't know what to do so he says that he knew his brother lives in town, but he didn't know what he looks like, so he's never been able to talk to him. Bill replied "Maybe you need to do a little research then!" and then he walked off.

K, I totally forgot as I have known them so long and don't consider them famous, but friends:

Johnny Bucyk (went to uni with his daughter & we're still close)
Stan Jonathan
Bobby Orr

Backstory on my meeting with Bill Murray:

OCC did a Caddyshack bike for his charity and was at the shop for two days.

I drove down from NH to ask him about Gilda Radner---she was my hero and they worked together and were together for a time.

I was stupid nervous. Not about meeting him, but about asking the q---maybe it was intrusive and stupid.

let's save some time and link to my blog:

I can explain...

Pics too-----look at that stupid deer in the headlights look on my face!

2nd one. I DANCED with Dan Ackroyd at Phillys nightclub in 1986!! (Minnesota) I was young and intoxicated and crazy at the time. He stopped in to sing a few sets with Lamont Cranston Band. A friend dared me to go up to him and give him my cycling glasses (remember the two "WIld and Crazy guys skit?) and he wore them while we danced and kept them, they were pink!!! LOL
Oh yeah, and I called my sister from the club that night and said "guess who I just danced with?" and told her and she said "yeah right, whatever, you're drunk"!! LOL and the following Monday in our local newspaper they had a review of his set with the band and she about fell over!!! HAhA

Gilleys! I forgot those wonderful days. I made a picture of my girlfriend with Travolta, but he rushed off before making mine. She was one of the dancers in the movie.

kuku2121 · 05-22-2008, 05:55 AM

I have meet a few: Country singer Billy Currington, Nascar Driver Rusty Wallace, Tito Jackson (they filmed the Jackson Five movie a couple houses down from me when I was young) Steelers Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger @ Quakes Steak and Lube (he frequents the place) I live in Pittsburgh so he is a celebrity hear. But the most famous is Billy Idol my uncle wrote the song cradle of love and we meet him in NY while they were recording it. I have signed sheet music from the song!

That was Really, Really very RUDE of him!!!!

Don't think I will be laughing at anything he does as an actor from now on.

JBJsRockAngel · 05-22-2008, 10:18 AM

I met Jon Bon Jovi a couple of times, as well as Richie Sambora and Tico Torres, Ricky Martin, Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20, and Adam Duritz from Counting Crowes.

alisonJ · 05-22-2008, 10:33 AM

I met Ted Kennedy TWICE. Of course he didn't remember me

The first time, I was sitting with some friends at an outdoor cafe in Boston. He just walked by. We called him over and spoke with him.

The second time he was on the same plane as I was....I introduced myself again.

alisonJ · 05-22-2008, 10:35 AM

Oh, I have to tell you this story. A friend of mine saw all of the Rolling Stones in a restaurant having dinner. She could not pass up the opportunity. She apologised and asked them all for their autographs.

She said THEY COULD NOT HAVE BEEN NICER.....They were so kind and happy to talk with her. I have always loved them since hearing that.

piptickle · 05-22-2008, 10:47 AM
