Celebrities you've interacted with - were they cool?

[austinite]

Lance Armstrong - very rude, stuck up and kind of a dick. Not a pleasant encounter. Came to my place of business and was "that" customer. Very demanding and not in a perfectionist type of way, just had an "I'm Lance" attitude.

Jesse James - Cool cat - exactly as you see him on TV, talks slow, looks high, pretty smart guy actually.

That's it, short list!

[MuscleInk]

Damn. I live 45 minutes from Los Angeles and haven't met or seen anyone famous!!!!

[austinite]

Damn. I live 45 minutes from Los Angeles and haven't met or seen anyone famous!!!!

Funny. When I lived in LA, I never met anyone either.

[Razor]

John Travola-tried to talk to me about scientology...no thanks..but i said I liked his movies.

[Tigershark]

Pierce Brosnan: Very approachable and was cool. Went out of his was at a ski lodge in Alaska to sign autographs for all James Bond fans at the time.

Patrick Stewart: A gentleman through and through. Had my friend's wife ready to leave him for Picard...lol

Johnny Depp: Did not meet him but saw him from about 15 feet away. I am not gay, but damn he is a handsome man.

[BengalWoman]

Husband and I visited with Mohamed Ali at the United Red Carpet Club at LAX, prior to leaving for Hawaii. This was in 2005, and he, his wife, & bodyguard were going to MN, or MI, something like that. Anyways, he didn't really say anything, he did this clicking to communicate, but he had a few different magic tricks that he did right in front of my husband and me. He even did this levitation trick!! It was crazy! He got an applause from the entire club before leaving! Made the start of our Hawaii vacation incredible!

[DanB]

What is a celeb to you? dj's or fighters, models count?

Dont know any actors/actress, dont think I would want to either, alot are from sheltered life and prob going to be stuck up their own hole so Dan has no need for that........

[Misery13]

Josh Koscheck was awesome. He played with my youngest son for over an hour. Took a bunch of pictures with him.

Machinehead
Sulley from Godsmack
Dave Mustane from Megadeth

Various pornstars that were doing a guest appearance at a strip club
I had the opportunity to meet the New Orleans Saints but didn't because they suck. They were at Walter Reed Army Medical Center when I was there.

[AdrenalineJunkie]

This spring I went to a tech n9ne concert, we convinced a bouncer to let us out one of the band doors so my buddy could have a smoke real quick. The door flew open and Bernie "bernz" garcia from ¡mayday! came flying out the door and started throwing up right next to me. We were partying so had some good laughs about it. He had just finished jammin in front of thousands or people, pretty intense to be that ****ed up jamming in front of that many people. He was a super chill dude and we got him all amped up and sent him back inside to get back on stage. I actually recorded a bunch of it on my phone, I laugh every time I watch the video.

Ive also met almost all the kansas city chiefs, and other nfl players from the raiders, vikings and packers. A family member of mine was in the nfl so I had many encounters with the players growing up. Never met a movie star or any celeb like that tho.

Nick Saban: Pretty cool guy, he flies in to the airport where one of our FD are located!

I've got Schwarzenegger's autograph on my MBA, from when he was the governor of "Kalifonia".

Ya, ok. I know. That's lame but it's the best I got.

Oh wait!!! Porn stars! I met Lisa Ann in LA. I was surprised how short she was, only 5'1. Really small. Huge breasts.

.....and speaking of Cuba, I saw him at a hockey game. Didn't actually meet him though he did walk past me and they later showed him on the jumbotron screen.

[evander87]

Peyton Manning
Fred Savage
Terrell Owens
Mell Gibson
Beyonce
Micheal Jordan
Tiger Woods
All pretty cool. But it might be because I met them in a professional sense and not just on the street.

Was having a rough day on set and Playmate Victoria Silvstedt said "looks like you're having a rough day" I said "You don't know the half of it" So she turned around and flashed her ass at me and said "Hope that can brighten your day" Needless to say I had a sh!t eating smile the rest of the day.

Sean Colms P-Diddy
David Schiwmmer
Robert Davi
Some c@nt that her claim to fame was a role on Pacific Blue who thought she could throw hot coffee on me.
All a bunch of tools

[JohnnyVegas]

Not much of a celebrity any more, but I did a bunch of work for Wayne Newton's final show and he stiffed me for thousands of dollars. Shortly after that he went on television to dispel rumors he was broke. He said he didn't have any financial problems and didn't owe anybody any money. Apparently when you decide you simply aren't going to pay people that counts as not owing them money. That guy can burn in hell.

I have met a few celebrities, but it never amounted to anything more than an introduction and handshake.

I received an email from Pamela Anderson once regarding work we did for a show she was in. Having her personal email seemed more personal than a handshake.

I run into Jay Cutler (the bodybuilder) at the grocery store every once in a while, but I have never done more than give him a "what's up" head nod. The guy should be able to shop in peace.

[gixxerboy1]

I forgot Terrel Owens. He was cool as hell. Bought me and my girl at the time food and drinks

[Times Roman]

this is going to be a real short list

Jesse James at a tail gate party (raider game) - agree with austinite

Bill Romanowski at a tail gate party (raider game) (retired) - talked with the guy for about 60 seconds. wasn't arrogant, intelligent, good sense of humor. Nice guy.

Marques Tuiasosopo at a celebrity basketball game in Porterville, Ca. - short in stature, humble, upbeat,

Kinji Shibuya (pre WWE wrestler) - i was only 10. wouldn't give me an autograph. he was visiting my neighbor

Ray Stevens (pre WWE wrestler) - Lived down the street from me when i was a kid. A wife beater. Not a nice chap

George Foreman - lived in Palma Cia, next neighborhood over. Used to see him at the park when I was a kid. Not the nice guy he is today. Kinda scary back then. Big dude

Y&T - Rock band from the 70's and 80's. Played in a local neighborhood with the garage open. I'd sit on my bike and listen to them play. they won the battle of the bands at the park and got thier first recording gig. took off from there with "Summertime Girl", etc.

Gray Davis (former Governor of Cali) - Tall. Polished. I was present when the editor at my paper gave him an interview. Shook his hand (don't ALL politicians shake hands?)

Pat Travers - Talked with him briefly after a concert over at the Fat Cat in Modesto. He seemed like he was ready to go back to the motel (tired)

oh, and a buddy of mine over the years says he keeps bumping into MC Hammer at my gym. it's been a few years since he's seen him though.....??

[gixxerboy1]

its it bad i never heard of half of your celebrities

[Times Roman]

its it bad i never heard of half of your celebrities

Ray Stevens was called "The Crippler" back in the 60's

Kinji was another wrestler that was quite famous. fukker wouljdn't give me an autograph though. AND he had a body guard??? wtf??? but he wrestled in the 60's too. died two years ago.

the rest i'm sure you've heard of??

[KINGKONG]

Never met any celebs but my boys partied with dexter Jackson said he just wanted blow and women and was a huge dick

[KINGKONG]

Well and I've trained with tons of superstar mma fighters if that counts

[jasc]

I run into Jay Cutler (the bodybuilder) at the grocery store every once in a while, but I have never done more than give him a "what's up" head nod. The guy should be able to shop in peace.

That'd be sweet! Whats his cart look like? I can only imagine... 20 lbs of chicken breasts, 5 boxes of rice, 3 tubs of oats, 5 bags of broccoli and 1/2 a cow.. Wonder if he sneaks some sweets in there?... I could see him poundin a tub of ice cream while bulking..

[KINGKONG]

I almost forgot I met Andre the giant he was drunk pissed and he beat up a cameraman I didn't say much just stared at his largeness

[Times Roman]

I almost forgot I met Andre the giant he was drunk pissed and he beat up a cameraman I didn't say much just stared at his largeness

I seriously doubt Andre was trying to hurt the bloke. Maybe just a shove or a push? If Andre was pissed and trying to beat up a cameraman, nobody could have stopped him and the bbloke would be dead.

[HitIt]

met ernest borgnine in '78 when i was 7. got his autograph. he was awesome of course. rip old fella

[KINGKONG]

No he punched him he got arrested..the whole story came out later was he was supposed to beat the warrior that night and the warrior as cocky as he is took advantage of andres bad health and pinned him..even though pro wrestling is not exactly real there's still a lot of pride involved the cameraman was trying to get an interview in his face after the match so Andre wacked him it was a scene I was just a kid those two were my role models..I agree I've seen stuff about Andre he seemed very gentle for his size and probably could have broke the guy in two..it was an Andre bitch slap

[KINGKONG]

I'll restate the beat up thing, times...he just gave him a Andre get the fvck outta my way slap

[Times Roman]

Andre was in a bad way towards the end of his life. much physical pain, more than most can handle. no way, in andres prime, that both warrier and hulk hogan together could have beaten andre....

....but we already know that!


There will never be another Andre. Many called him the gentle giant.

[Times Roman]

I'll restate the beat up thing, times...he just gave him a Andre get the fvck outta my way slap

right. if Andre took a real swing, it would be very dangerous for the other bloke.

there was a documentary on Andre a few years ago. Ever see it?

Hulk Hogan was talking about this one episode, Andre was in a bar, minding his own business. these two blokes were razzing him, calling wrestling fake, and saying Andre wasn't really that strong.

andre gets pissed.

he goes out in the parking lot, grabs their car, and turns it upside down!

[JAB1]

Oh yeah I didnt meet Tiger but saw him at Atlantis in the Bahamas at there casino. He was playing the $5,000 poker table with his wife(at the time, lol). Not sure if he was up or down

[Gaspari1255]

Mary J. Blige- Ignorant, stuck up, self centered douche bag. When she came to the club I was working at, she told the DJ that "the only music being played better be mine, or I'm leaving."

Teri Wiegel- Old school 90s porn star. Still does MILF stuff. She's a sweetheart, and very sexy. Asked me to zip up her stripper boots, while wearing a dress, spread her vag right in front of me, no panties.

Snookie/Ronnie/The Situation - Not really celebrities, but everyone knows them. They are always at clubs in Jersey, thinking they own the place. Most of the time, they've been nice to me though.

John Cena - He was training at a gym in North Jersey. He looks A LOT bigger on TV/ in pictures. He seemed like a nice guy, but I didn't have a full on conversation with him.

Rick Ross- Did private security for him at a club. All I'm gonna say is: what ya see is what ya get..

[gixxerboy1]

Amani Toomer i sold him some equipment. I had no idea who he was. He got a piece and said he uses it at work. So i asked where do you work? He says giants stadium. He bought from me, he did alot of shopping around. I think since i wasnt all over him and treated him normal he bought

Arturo Gatti sold him stuff also. He was cool as hell and so friendly.

lil kim. bitch and cheap as hell. She didnt want to pay like $200 for delivery. So she came in her lambo and had a friend follow her in a mercedes truck to pick it up

[evander87]

Teri Wiegel- Old school 90s porn star. Still does MILF stuff. She's a sweetheart, and very sexy. Asked me to zip up her stripper boots, while wearing a dress, spread her vag right in front of me, no panties.

Thats awesome. She "helped" me through puberty if you know what I mean. That women was HOT.




Oh a few others
Met Cuba at a party and he was loud trying to command attention. Came off as a douche.

Matt Stone and Trey Parker South Park guys super cool. They actually hung out with my buddy and I.

Nicole Kidman didn't think anything of her until I met her. HOLY CRAP she has star power and you can't help but like her.

HUGE props to Josh Hartnet. I was working on a no-budget short film he was in and the director was beating the crap out of the crew. We broke after 8 hours for lunch of cold mexican food (supposed to break every 6 hours) and we maybe had 10 minutes to eat, supposed to have at least 30. When Josh, who was given star treatment, heard about the crew getting hosed on our lunch he said he wasn't coming back to work until we had been fed a proper meal and given a break. That made him aces in my book.

[< <Samson> >]

I met Kenny G < does that count?

Met him way back in the day when I worked and the Arena here in Phoenix. Normal, real nice guy.

No one else cool though at all.

[Misery13]

I remember the first time I met hawtin. I was in the pisser using the bathrrom and he walked in ( I was in pretty bad shape lol) and I was like Richie man you are the ****ing best man. I dont know why you dont play in NYC more often. Do you not like it here. I must have sounded like such an asshole. He was looking at me like I was crazy

[Rwy]

I have met a lot actually. My family is in fashion and I met a lot of actors/actresses musicians.
