Kaitlin'smom replied: I met Marie Osmand a long time ago in an Airport,

I have met several football players.

I have worked with a guy who had a bit on ER and had a re-occuring role on a show that is now canciled.

I stood face to face with Alanis Moressett on a train in to Grand central sation I did not talk to her but she did give me the thanks smile for not announcing her.

I saw Elayne Boozler she was at a local comedy club and talk with her a bit and got her autograph.

mummy2girls replied: yes i saw dave coulier(full house) when he came to do stand up comedy in edmonton. and then i met him after his show. That was a blast.

Kaitlin'smom replied:

mckayleesmom replied: I have met a few.

Doug E Doug.....he came to our school around the time he made the movie Operation Dumbo Drop. He was there to meet the Honor roll students...Brianne wasn't one of them,,but she just happened to have Gym last period and caught him as he was walking out.

Eddie Murphey and Arsenio Hall....at a gas station on their way to a Lakers game

Brad Pitt....Saw him drive by on Hollywood Blvd

Sammy Kirshaw.....I touched his hand...I was at his concert and was in the very front row...(it was one of those fairs where the concert was free so you didn't get seating choices). Anyways..there was a little girl next to me and when he went to throw pics at the audience they all rushed up and I grabbed her cause they were going to run her over and he reached down and grabbed her up from me...Then he yelled at the audiance and told them that they needed to get their heads together and realize that hes just a person...Not worth killing a kid over.

Stevie Wonder...I only saw him from far away...but my dad worked for him. He is not the great guy I thought he was. He invited my dad to a party at his house and made sure he mentioned the great drugs that were going to be provided.

The drummer in John Stamos's band.....Remember the full house where they show his music video for FOREVER....the guy that is swinging his dreadlocks around and playing the drums......thats him. He came to our school for an inspirational speech.

Jessica Alba...I went to school with her...although she wasn't there that often because she would take time out to do the seventeen magazine shoots...then she got the part in Flipper the tv show and never came back.

Theo from Family Matters....I went to school with his younger brother and often saw him pick his brother up from school.

Dh's best friends wife is Sandra Bullocks cousin...so dh has met her a tons of times. His friends wife also looks alot like Sandra and people always wondered why Sandra Bullock was working at Walmart

mummy2girls replied: Theo from family matters? dont you mean cosby show or ami just drunk...LOL wink.gif

mckayleesmom replied: I thought his name was theo on family matters....no matter what his name is.....the older brother from Family matters......... biggrin.gif ...Oh wait...his name was EDDIE....LMBO

mom21kid2dogs replied: President & Hillary Clinton. The program I coordinated at work recieved an Adoption 2002 Initiative Award for support for adoptive families so we got to go to DC for a Presidential Reception. They were very gracious and must have been briefed on what the award winners do because they actually knew what we were doing with our post adoption program.

Karen and Richard Carpenter (OK, all you yougins can say "Who?" now laugh.gif ) They were at the Grand Canyon when I was there with my PapPap in the 8th grade. I was a huge fan of their music so I was greatly impressed to actually see them up close.

KC of KC and the Sunshine band~I got to give him a big ole kiss while they were performing at the Ohio State Fair in 1976 (before you all were born laugh.gif )

Kaitlin'smom replied:
laugh.gif hay now we are not all that young, I might be but I know who they are any I was born before 1976 laugh.gif not by much but I was born end of 74

Mommy2BAK replied: Haha, I actually made this same post when I had just joined the club. rolling_smile.gif

I met Vickie Lawrence, which wasn't a big deal to me because I didn't really know her. But she has a potty mouth, and we were in a CHURCH! blink.gif

My Grandma met and talked to Elvis, many years ago. Just before he became famous. They were getting cokes out of a coke machine!

atlantamomof2 replied: I worked at the Palace of Auburn Hills(Where the Detroit Pistons play) when I lived in Michigan and I walked right by Gene Simmons(lead singer of KISS) in full makeup and he did the tongue thing at me! rolleyes.gif They were waiting to go onstage and I got scolded for going that way-but I was new and didn't know certain areas were off limits! dry.gif

I met Gavin Rossdale (Singer of Bush) after a concert when I was 16 and told him him he was beautiful as he signed my CD. blush.gif tongue.gif (Sad part was, my boyfriend was standing right next to me!!)

My dad drove a limosine when I was little and he drove many famous people to the Detroit airport to catch their flights. I remember him telling me he met Sinbad; Betty White; the guy who does Garfield cartoons (shoot! what's his name?!?!); etc.
I can't remember all the other ones.

Dennis Rodman wacko.gif used to practise in our school's gymnasium in the mornings because he played for the Pistons at that time and our school was very close to the Palace.

CCTandME replied: I live near Saratoga Springs, NY. (horse racetrack is there) I was on the patio of a restaurant, Bailey's, and Richard Gere was also there. I'm not the type to say anything. I called a friend & she drove over quickly. Unfortunately, she just missed him. He was pulling away in his luxury brand SUV.
My sister lived in New Orleans and now in NYC, so she has seen a few. I guy she dated at Tulane Universty is on TV.

MichaelsMommy replied: I met Axl Rose forever ago when I was still in high school and they
were just becoming popular. He was a smug @ss.

And I stepped on Bono's foot when I was backstage at a concert
years ago too. I was stuptified couldn't say a word to him just stood
there stunned wacko.gif

JessC replied: Well Johnny Noxville (from MTVS Jackass) went to our high school and so did Mr. Rogers. I was like 8 feet away from meeting Mark Mgraph from Sugar Ray?! wub.gif And thats about it. thumb.gif

I met Ted Shackleford (Knots Landing)-- my dad was friends with his father

Sting is with me in my dreams quite frequently..does that count?

jdkjd replied:
I think I'm the only person on earth who thinks that movie is hilarious.

I met Kim Cattrall at Bloomingdale's in NY last Dec. She was super sweet and autographed my Bloomingdale's bag.

TANNER'S MOM replied:
