    uh i don't really know anyone famous

    johnny depp filmed a movie in columbus not long ago, and a lot of people around here got to meet him

    and my cousin is best friends with shaun alexander i don't know how to spell his name, i'm not a big sports fan
    i watch the occasional packers game lol

    shaun was actually a groomsmen in his wedding
    i shook his hand, but for the most part he kept to himself and stayed away from everyone other than my cousin

    I despise famous people.
    I also pity them too.

    Everyone follows them. "OMG INTERVIEW pl0X!!"

    I'd rather be a normal person.

    To me. All my friends/family are famous in my book.
    Actors? Gtfo.

    ^ That would be my grandpa.

    Famous enough. Popularity doesn't account for quality in the works of any art form. Just look at the bands the poster above me said they met. Famous, sure, good? ....Hahahahahaha.

    I met Michael Jordan, Stuart Scott, Chris Berman, Goldberg, Charles Barkley, Coach K, Dickie V and many others at a celebrity golf tournament hosted at the golf course I live on!

    I've met Tom Cruise's mother (my grandma and her were friends before the mother moved in with Tom).

    By marriage, I am related to the dead president James Garfield.

    My dad went to school with Roger Craig (retired football player) and has talked to him occasionally.

    There are few other less significant encounters...

    they actually are famous buddy. theyre metal/screamo bands. so if your into the genre then chances are youve heard of them. but sadly most people today only consider people that are on mtv or on the radio constantly famous... you have to consider that metal is not the most marketable genre in the world so its never on the radio(occasionally on mtv2 though)

    I've met many famous people, personally, one of the suga babes, or ex-suga babes, i knew her before she was famous, had seen her multiple times, she grew up very near me. One of my friends played the sister of the contestant of the all girls school in the 4th harry potter film.
    Other than that, off the top of my head, nobody, unless you include my cousin who's 16, part of the GB kayaking team, he wasn't at the olympics though, he competes internationally in K1 and K2

    He said they are famous, but they suck.

    And you don't listen to screamo, you convulse to it.

    Uh... I met Alvin Law (who is not really that famous, he likes to think he is. He has no arms. No joke.)

    I met Deidra Dion. And Dion Fanuf. And I saw Celine Dion. ... All canadians and all "Dion"-esque. They're all tools, as well.

    I saw Colin Mockery and Ryan Styles as well. Neat guys.

    I haven't met anyone else famous though.


    On a side note: Why do you some of you react bitterly to celebrities? One post drips with disdain over actors. Why? They work, they entertain millions, and profits from movies and such are high enough that the actors do get and deserve the money they receive (some don't). I think it must be jealousy. (Keep in mind they can't live like regular people)
