Answer 1

Back 30 years ago, I was at the Westchester Golf Classic in Rye, NY. I had the good fortune of standing right behind MY GOLF IDOL, the handsome Gary Player, as he was warming up on the driving range. When he finished, Gary and his caddy started to walk toward their golf card right inside the roped area, where I happened to be standing directly across from the cart -- but on the other side of the rope. "Oh, Mr.Player," I politely asked as he neared me, "may I please have your autograph? I've been such a big fan of yours."
Well, with that Gary replied, "Hop in, Lassie (not my name!) and take a ride with me." Gary didn't have to ask me twice, so I accepted and had a great conversation as we rode toward the clubhouse where he also introduced me to Tom Watson and Johnny Miller! They were all gentlemen and very nice, considering they were scheduled shortly to tee off!! Needless to say, I was thrilled !!!!

Answer 2

Regis Philbin was nice. Rosie O'Donnell was LOUD and obnoxious (no, it's not an act), Gregory Harrison was the sweetest guy ever, a REAL jerk was (and he's not that famous but likes to think he is) Bronson Pinchot.

Olson Twins are a joke. SO snotty and bratty. I made the mistake of being at the Mall of America a few years back when they were doing some press stuff for their clothing line.

I met Scott Bakula, VERY sweet and interested.

Answer 3

I met Eric Braeden (Victor from Young and the Restless) in retail store in LA. I accidentally bumped into him. I had a conversation with him for few minutes and at the time had absolutely no clue who he was because I never watched Soaps. He was very friendly and probably enjoyed the fact that I had no idea he was an actor!! The only reason I found out was because other people were talking about him and I overheard their conversation.

Answer 4

My brothers Fraternity (in Berkeley) threw a party, and one of the frats members worked at a law firm that handled Bob Saget stuff, so he just invited him almost jokingly. And guess what HE CAME lol and he brought Carleton Banks from the fresh price of Bellaire. Lets just say we all had a good time. So he is a cool guy!

I also worked at the SJC airport and Jerry Rice was flying with his family, I checked him in and he gave me his signature, he didn’t talk much I could not tell if he was nice or not. But he did give me an autograph.

Answer 5

I met Matt Underwood (Logan from Zoey101) and Victoria Justice (Lola also from Zoey101) and they were really nice..actually nice enough to let me hangout with them for 15 minutes which was pretty cool and they weren't like eww..get away i dont want to take a picture or talk to you and stuff they were really nice and outgoing but i would have to say that even though Matt plays a complete jerk on tv hes the complete opposite and Victoria is pretty much the same as on tv..but i would say Matt is friendlier to his fans..he'd be nice to you even if he was having a bad day not so sure about Victoria tho but she'd probably too!

Answer 6

I've met John Travolta. He's extremely nice. Awesome personality and very friendly. Kind of what I expected.

I know someone that worked with Heath Ledger on the set of Two Hands (old Heath movie before his big rise). He said he was arrogant, rude and a complete prick to everyone.

Answer 7

I met Loretta Lynn once and she was loaded with a capital "L"...lol. I heard that she did a concert in her home town or somewhere near there and sat in a chair on stage and told everyone that she had a UTI...(Urinary Tract Infection) I can't wait until I get old so I can just chill around on meds like these old guys. LOL...

Answer 8

I met Martin Sheen while filming West Wing and he was super nice.

About a month or so ago I met Kevin Federline at Tao in Vegas and believe it or not, he was totally nice and friendly. He was relatively down to earth and wasn't acting like a jackass.

Answer 9

Wasn't actually personally introduced to them...Yet, I was winked at by Queen Elizabeth's husband (Duke of Edinburgh).

My step-father was born in Scotland. We went there when I was 15 back in the early 1970's. Won't go into the story...yet we traveled to the highlands of Scotland to take in the sights. A woman who owned a bed and breakfast that we stayed at extended the invitation to attend church with her at this tiny local church in town of Balmoral. The royal family vacation there each year.

While at church, the entire royal family was also attending. I was seated in some pews that was directly facing the pews across from me where the royal family was seated. I was supposed to be looking to the side at the Reverend listening to the service...yet I kept sneaking a peek at the royal family. I guess the Duke of Edinburgh noticed me doing this because as I again peeked up he was looking directly at me, smiling and he winked at me. I was so embarrassed...yet it was a fun moment.
