what is the weirdest celebrity encounter for you?

Question

i met the Grateful Dead in 1981 at the DMV in oregon, they were hippies and i was into New Wave so i pretended not to know who they were!

Answer 1

I worked at a Chili's restaurant in Dallas with a waitress that was the girl hung on the meathook in the original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre". I also worked in a licquor store in Montecito, CA. where several celebrities came in. I once sold about 10 packages of batteries to Joe Walsh. Oh yeah, I sat next to Tom Landry while watching the movie, "Patton" many years ago.

Answer 2

3 months ago I was in Texas going to a Rancid concert with some cousins and we were waiting in line. This guy with tall spiky blonde hair and 3 women came into the car parked in the front (like a ford, nothing fancy) and started to back out. We didn't want to move so we gave him the finger and started laughing. (it was a rock concert so everybody was cool about it) He rolls down his window and says, "If you all don't move next time, I'll have to run you over." and starts laughing.

I didn't really notice until the concert started a few hours later, that he was the lead singer for Rancid, the people we were paying to see lol. Funniest and weirdest celebrity encounter I've had.

Answer 3

I met Gwen Stefani in the bathroom of Ross in Orlando.
I was so confused as to why she was in a Ross that i almost didnt say anything to her... but when i said hello and asked for an autograph she was really cool about it. We walked out of the bathroom together and even walked through the store.
You never know where you might meet someone famous. Even a discount department store.lol

Answer 4

Kurt Russell at the Santa Monica Mall.

Answer 5

Busta Rhymes. In a bodega in brooklyn. He was in the aisle and I was at the counter. He started talkin all crazy, actin all diva-like cause the counterman knew who he was. I thought that was odd, the only thing he'd done was Higher Learning. He didn't even have his solo **** off the ground yet. I told him a few words about how fans make or break you in the bizness,and walked off. Jerk!!

Answer 6

I met Robert DeNiro in Astoria, Queens, New York while he had the street closed while filming "A Bronx Tale".
I asked if he would let me take his picture, rather than look like an azzhole paparazzi guy, and he said ok.
It was a cool shot! The 60min photo lab guy was like, "Oh Shiit!".

Answer 7

The strangest one for me was when I saw the lead singer of Linkin Park at a California Pizza Kitchen, while I had one of his songs in my head because I was just listening to it in the car. I went to talk to him while his companion was in the bathroom and it felt like an interview. He was really cool and answered my questions about touring and record companies.

Answer 8

I met Bruce Willis and Billy Bob when they were filming Bandits.. They sat next to me and a friend at a bar/restaurant and Bruce looked over and asked how my avocado was... I told him that my artichoke was good... they later asked to bum a smoke but no smoking in CA...

Answer 9

I was on an elevator, and Scottie Pippin got on, and older lady was on also and asked if he was Scottie Pippin, and he lied and said no, (Keep in mind this was at the Rose Garden when he played for the Trailblazers).

Answer 10

I ran into Billy Bob Thornton in a store. He was with Laura Dern.
