    Celebrity clients

    No matter what work you're in I know a few of you guys have a few clients that are "celebs". I'm not bragging (because I'm in freakin Michigan!) but I get a decent amount of famous clients.

    I only bring this up because I had two "famous" people contact me today about some real estate so I'm sure some of you in NYC or LA have some great stories. Let's here them then I'll share!

    I'm okay with that.

    I'm college buddies with a bunch of NFL guys from Notre Dame I played ball with and still keep in touch with several during the off-season to go out on occasion when I'm in their respective cities.

    One of them got me front row tickets to the Seahawks/Raiders game this Friday right in front of the cheerleaders I'll post pics this weekend.

    Recently, I sat next to Ludacris on a flight from ATL to LAX. He was actually a nice guy, and asked me for some gym tips. I told him to deadlift more and he was like "Good lookin out man".

    Totally uninspiring.

    My stepmom's cousin is Mary Steenburgen, who in turn is married to Ted Danson. Her ex-husband is Malcom Macdowel (Starred in "A Clockwork Orange"). I have been shopping with Ted and Mary in Little Rock, just the 3 of us, well, we tried to shop, everyone kept stopping them for autographs.

    I boxed with Mark Whalberg. Long story, but I was in a gym with a friend from the area. and we were sparing and he was in the next ring and i didn't know it. When we finished they finished and they asked if we wanted to trade partners. I had no ****ing idea it was him until we were about to start and we introduced one another haha. He almost dropped me in about 18 seconds, he is a solid ass fighter. I landed a blow on him and he replied "this kid about chipped my tooth." we went 2 rounds until the other guys were done. badass time.

    Did you ever see or meet Tiger? That would be awesome.



    I had Jack Black contact me yesterday about a rental in my area while he shoots for a film. Actually, it was Jack Blacks people then they handed the phone over to him to tell me what he wants in a house. It's only a small lease and I won't make but a couple hundred bucks off it but it was still awesome.

    Many Montreal Canadiens hockey players (and retired NHL players) live in the borough near my station and we've run quite a few fire/alarm/medical calls to their houses. Pre-season the Canadiens also hold practices at the borough arena.

    Personally I do not have an eye to recognise "famous" faces when I'm working, so it's usually someone else on the engine who tells me after the call "hey did you recognise that guy!?"

    The latest I had to fixup the son of an NHL player who sprained his ankle playing little league soccer in the park by the station... dad was a wreck... But until dad told me his name for the report I had no idea who he was.

    My college video production professor wsa Willard Pugh he was Opeah's husband in The Color Purple and He was the Mayor in Rococop 2. The guy is just comedy.

    I also worked with Bubba from Forest Gump, he runs a video production company for Christian movies and I had to do some intern work with him.... he is pretty cool.

    I also met Chris Rock in person. I was at Virgin Mega Store in Hollywood and he was standing paying for a shit load of movies in front of me... He did turn around while the store employee was scaning the movies and said hi to me.

    Once I was at the Bervely Center in West Hollywood and I was buying some shoes... All of the sudden I see this big crowd of people approaching next to where I was sitting trying on my shoes. It happen to be that the start player for the Oakland A's was there buying shoes for him and his sons.

    Thats all that I can think of right now.

    I saw Dudley Moore get pissed off at LAX and beat the crap out of his luggage. I'm pretty sure he was drunk at the time.

    I met Richard Marcinko at a bookstore in Coronado. He came in, went through all of his books on the shelves, and signed each one.

    Marky mark is one crazy mother****er. Read up on his PCP psychosis escapades. I've never read anything funnier than that in my life.

    jenna haze was a feature dancer at the club i worked at. All the other bouncers hated when we had features because trhey had to work. so i was her personal security for the night. Granted i got her drinks and food and bs for the night we hung out in her off time. So at the end of the night her and her assistant needed a ride back to their hotel......

    plenty of porn star stories

    i met jenna j a m e s o n at a strip club. got a pic w her. she was nice. very short and very little she had huge ass heals on to make her taller and she was still short.

    i met charles barkley and rick mahorn at basketball camp. rick was real cool, charles was a dick! also met manute bol. tallest and skinniest person ever. i have a slue of other basketball players i have met, but i dont think a lot of people would know who they are unless you follow the nba.

    when i lived in CA i saw alot of celbs , but i wouldnt say i met them. noah whylie and maura tiearny from ER, D-BO from the movie friday, big mother fcuker! probably a few other small timers i cant think of off the top of my head.

    i literally bumped into the lady for the tv show taxi, may lou henner in NYC

    in a club in vegas , i got into the vip room and i saw oscar delahoya, toby keith, and robin leech. i didnt bother any of them because i could have cared less.

    i also sat right next to bernard hopkins in a club box at basketball game. i dint know it was him until my girlfriend told me. he was real quite the whole night. his friends were real clowns. bunch of good guys.

    for any of you nascar buffs(not me) my friend got tony stewart plastered at a bar the day before time trials for a race. my buddy came back over to me at the bar and said" i crippled tony stewart" i turned around and saw the guy half passed out on a railing with my buddys favorite drink in his hand. i was told he barely qualified for the race the next day.

    i met tony hawk at a skateboard demo. he signed a shirt for me and pretty much for anybody who asked.

    my fiance's brother was a main extra in the movie invincible,he is in a lot of the movie. he became buddys with whalberg. seems like a lot of people have met whalberg from reading the posts above. apparently he hates if people bring up the marky mark years and still smokes weed.

    i saw nicholas cage while shooting the movie national treasure. he was much taller than i thought

    a saw allen iverson and 50 cent at sneaker store. little kids were going crazy. it was a mob scene.

    lebron james did an autograph signing at a store next to place i used to work. another mob scene. you couldnt get close to him. too much security unless you stould in a line and waited. again i could have cared less so i didnt bother.

    When it comes to seeing celebrities, I saw Jennifer Love Hewitt filming an episode for a spin off of Party of Five that didn't last very long. This was at a hotel in NYC almost 10 years ago. Didn't get to talk to her or anything but we were pretty close to where she was filming. Her tits are as big as they look in pictures! She was dating Carson Daly at the time who showed up and came up to us and asked "Have you seen my girlfriend?" without saying anything else. We are from Canada and MTV was not even aired here at the time so we had no idea who he was. There were some girls from Texas there who knew who he was so they told him where she was, but what a cocky dick to think that we would know who he was.
