I haven't really met many celebrities in the *traditional* sense of "Hi, how are you?", though during my WDW cast member days I did sell popcorn/ice cream/cinnamon-glazed-almonds to a few (Brad Garrett, Luis Guzman, a few more I can't recall), spotted several more whilst playing in the parks (John Stamos, the "8 Simple Rules" kids), passed by one backstage without even realizing who it was (Chris Rock and his family), and accidentally hit one with my stocker dolly on the Fourth of July 2005 (Andy Lawrence). I watched Regis & Kelly live in Main Street (from afar, not in the audience), Ryan Cabrera perform in front of the castle during a Grad Nite, and got Tinker Bell's autograph in the tunnels after a "Wishes" flight (she counts as a celebrity!). I missed out on seeing Neil Patrick Harris playing in Magic Kingdom (he was there literally a day before I arrived for my 2006 program), Johnny Depp playing in MGM Studios (I was scheduled to work that day so I couldn't go to MGM to hunt him down), and Tyler Hilton signing autographs at Virgin Megastore (though Jane was able to, and he still remembers her).

A friend of mine got yelled at by Kathy Hilton (Paris Hilton's mom) during a busy day at MK (I think he ran out of water). So I guess that trumps any other celebrity experience automatically.

I guess I never posted in this thread...but I've posted them in other threads.

Jonas Brothers
Nick Carter & Howie Dorough (Backstreet Boys)
Drew Seeley
Demi Lovato
I have Taylor Hanson's autograph but I didn't technically meet him (people were just giving things for him to sign)
and I talked with Corbin Bleu on the phone <3

I think that's it...?

Didn't you interview Mitchell Musso, too, and other celebs?

I met Lindsay Lohan at Heathrow recently, it really was an experiance that I'll never forget.

Oh, well, if they count, then Dominic Scott Kay, Lisa Davis, Alice Davis, Mitchell Musso, Jason Dolley, Matt Prokop, and Justin Martin.

Seriously, that's all you tell us? What happened?!?!?

Does being the best friend of a licensed videogame developer, lead designer, owner and president count as knowing a celebrity?

But really, I haven't met anyone important save for local celebrities.

I haven't met many celebs except...
I met Lou Diamond Phillips & Cheyenne Jackson after performances of The King and I and Xanadu in NYC.
I rode California Screamin' and had my picture taken at DCA with Sonya Eddy who plays Nurse Epiphany Johnson on General Hospital.

lol ok...

Well at first when I was in line at the First/Business class queue just when the Christmas Holiday started, I saw this blonde chick with huge sunglasses. I thought she was kinda hot, but I was wondering why the hell did she have sunglasses on. Apparently her partner was on about a Black Eyed Peas party, which caught my interest. So I walked past security, where the thing beeped and after I had my f***ing butt squeezed in public, I picked up my stuff, and right before the girl picked up her bag and sunglasses to leave, I found out that she was none other than Lindsay Lohan ! I was really starstruck, I looked at her and I told her partner (who was obviously her agent) that this was so surreal !
Lindsay who probably didn't know what that word meant said: "What ?", and then I said "This is so surreal, I can't believe I just saw you !". She was flattered and smiled at me. Then I asked her "How are you doing ?" she said "I'm fine thank you !", I can tell from her voice that she was obviously flattered. That's when I smiled and left to catch my plane which was already giving the final call ! lol

She was so down to earth and friendly, it's such a shame,that she has to deal with all the crap from the media. (Consequently I always respected her choices, and I hope that others will do to.)

I met:

Heidi Klum (and her mom and kids)
Ice Cube (and his kids)
Jamie Lee Curtis
"Dwight" from The Office (and his son)
Debbie Fields (of Mrs. Field's Bakeries)
Peter Ronchetti (former general manager of Thorpe Parks)
Wayne Brady (commedian)
Laffit Pincay, Jr. (famous jockey)
Julie Krone (most famous female jockey)
Bob Baffert (famous racehorse trainer)
Ryan Sheckler (and his brother)

..And I got REALLY close to Roy E. Disney and Mickey Rooney, but I didn't actually speak to them.

Aww, that's really cool!

!!! Was he really nice? I've liked him ever since I used to watch Whose Line Is It Anyway? every day back in middle school!

I volunteered at an event where Shania Twain was headlining and spent about half an hour talking to her while she waited to go on stage.

I also walked (litterally, I wasn't paying attention to where I was going) into Christian Bale while we both happened to be in the same Starbucks into Toronto. I apologized without even realizing who it was only to have my best friend stare opened mouth at the two of us.

Oh. Em. Gee. !!!!!!!!!! What did he say or do?!?!?!?!? Was he mad?!?!?!?!? Ugh, I'm so jealous! <3

Let's see, I've met a couple of WWE wrestlers, Brian Littrell (Backstreet Boys) and Jodie Sweetin (Full House), Wil Wheaton, Jeff Dunham, and Aaron Douglas from Battlestar Galactica

Yes, he was nice, also a bit "reserved" if you know what I mean. He was a bit quiet, and not at all like how he appears on radio and television!

I wish I met Linday Lohan!!! I'm jealous!
As for Wayne Brady, he was really nice. A bit on the "reserved" side, if you know what I mean. He was quiet, seemed comfortable around kids, and did not act at all like how he appears on TV.

I have met the following people

Eminem
Gwen Stafani
Boyz 2 men
Mariah Carey

I think that is all that happened. I was 4 when I met these people but my parents remember them well
