Famous People you've met
 

The other thread gave me this idea. Who here has met anyone famous? I go to a lot of cons, both small and large, but here's my list (or at least what I can remember)

Natile Portman
William Shatner
Tom Brokaw
Lexa Doig
Leonard Nimoy
Bill Clinton


I'll think of more....

Nicholas Brendon (Xander from Buffy) and Beverly Mitchel (Lucy from 7th Heaven) came to our school one year for a summer program when we were stationed in Italy, it was for Extreme Summer, a get out and play type thing. the questions asked were doozies, "is Willow really gay?" and the like. I asked Beverly, "are u anything like you character?" i hope she appriciated the non-goofy drama geeky question.
My grandparents were siting in the Tulsa airport terminal. They were talking with a guy who looked familar. Later they watch the news and found out that Jamie Farr (Klinger from M*A*S*H) had been talkling to them.

Frank Oz
Nechele Nichols

..I really need to think of anyone famous that I've met. Which'll be, about, a few, at most.

I've met a ton of hockey players. Won't name them all. The biggest celebrity I met....

MR.T!!!!!

I've met...

Albert Pujols and the guy that played the dad on The Wonder Years.

the dude who played Gimli in Lord of the Rings.
Sean Astin.
The guy who played R2-D2.
The guy who played Darth Maul and Toad (Ray Parks, wasn't it?).

And, if things go well at E3, I'll have kidnaped Shiggy. Bwahahaha.

Not if I beat you to it. :evilgrin:

I've never met anybody famous. If I ever did, I'd probably clam up and not know what tto say in case I make an ass of myself.

Not sure if they're actually famous, probably only popular in the VA world. I've met Vic Mignona and Travis Willingham.... over AIM (and not fake SNs) -- English dub voice actors for Edward Elric and Roy Mustang of Fullmetal Alchemist.

I did talk to Chris Patton over the phone once. He does various voice work for anime mostly. He called on my friend's phone and was acting all buddy-buddy while I was like "who the **** is this?". Not out loud, but when I eventually did admit that I didn't know who he was he started sobbing and handed the phone off to my friend, who informed me that I'd been duped. But yeah, I guess that's the best I've done.

I had a long email conversation with Charles Martinet once. Working on getting one with David Wise.

Peanut met Rosey Palms one time.

A lot actually.


HA!

I'm priceless.
