Wow... a lot of questions...getting more for your point deduction, huh? That's a good idea.

Well, I met Shaq when he was at LSU. He was extremely nice.

I met the Ying Yang Twins on a plane from Orlando right before they hit big. They had just put out "Whistle While You Twerk." Oh, and they are rap / r & b artisits..for those who don't listen to that. We sat behind them and they were really tired so they just said "hi" and told us to keep an eye on them....they were going to be famous. They are now.

I met Tom Selleck in Hollywood when he was at the placing of a Hollywood Walk of Fame star for David Carridine (Kung Fu and Bill in the "Kill Bill" movies). Oh, and I met him, too....obviously.

I saw Val Kilmer while in Hollywood. I was too shy to say "hi" to him...silly me. He's just human.

I was in line behind the actor who played "Proctor" on the Police Academy movies. It was in Anaheim at Disney World. He was very happy about being recognized and was so nice to me and to my students.

I sat behind the lady who played "Mona" on "Who's the Boss" while we were at an off Broadway show. She was very nice to everyone and was so elegant. She's just precious to her fans.

I've probably met a dozen other actors and actresses or singers who have all been really nice for the most part. I think the worst part about their fame is the loss of privacy. We should not know everything about their lives. Yes, they are well paid for it and it's the price of fame. I just know how much I treasure my privacy and can't imagine having people going nuts over my every move.

Wow telling my age now, was in the early 70's and I was a waitress in Eugene, Oregon and I got to wait on Waylon & Willie 3 different nights while they were in town and they took me for dinner the next night, very down to earth, great guys, I think the worst thing about fame would be the fans that are annoying and having to be in the lime light and everyone thinking they know your buis by what they read or hear, and the best thing would be sharing your talents with everyone, and putting a smile on so many faces... I'm a celebrity in my own right !!! lol

I've met a well dimension of the Pirates of the Caribbean forged while I labored a press junket for "Dead Man's Chest" in 2006, on the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills. I met Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp (very in brief), Tom Hollander, and director Gore Verbinski. I additionally met a man named Mike Singer, who used to be the Unit Publicist for all 3 movies.

I met Bobby Brown in his pre-Whitney days and actually, he was very nice. The worst thing about fame is no privacy and the best thing about fame is the perks.

I've meet 5 celebs:

1 - Pussycat Dolls - I won a radio contest to meet them (it was actually in their concert). They're so nice! They're always willing to give you autographs, photos, hugs, answer to your question, etc. And they're also really fun, even though they seem to have too much make up on their face. Anyway, the nicest was Kimberly (she asked my name and she asked me what was my favorite music, etc.) Jessica is also really sweet, Nicole is really nice as well, but she was always flirting with the guys that were there, to meet her. Ashley is kind of shy, but nice. And Melody is shy as well, but also nice. And then we have Carmit (she seems to be the most responsible of the group, I think it's because she's the oldest), but anyway they are all NICE and FUNNY!

2 - Nelly Furtado. I meet her in a different way, now I am livin' in Portugal, and she was here once. And I got the oppurtunity to talk to her, and she is also really nice and the way how she laughs is funny!

3- Rihanna. It was the 2nd time that I won a radio contest to meet her (also in a concert). I didn't have much time to talk with her, because there were a lot of people there. So, she had to hurry up and give autographs and take photos with everybody... I don't really know if she is nice or not... but I guess that she is, because she let everybody take pictures and ask questions. And her hair doesn't seem real. LOL!

4 - Beyoncé Knowles. Also in a radio contest. It was a really cool day to me, because I am a big fan. And I went to her (awesome) concert and I also got the oppurtunity to meet her. It was great! She is extremely nice! And she'll do a new album (I asked her that). She is very pretty and she has amazing dresses! And she says thank you a lot of times (which is nice). But I couldn't have an autograph (her security didn't let me, it was kind of weird, and I could not take a picture with her and give her a present either). But anyway it was a great expirence and I'm happy I've got that amazing oppurtunity.

5 - Kofi Annan. I MET HIM TODAY! As you can see (even though I'm american) I'm livin' in Portugal right now and he was here today. It was a conference. I meet him because after his speech I asked him a question 'bout global warming: "If everybody in the world already know, what to do, how to do it and if we know what's gonna happen if we don't take action why is this still a world problem?" He really liked that question, so in the end of the speech I got the oppurtunity to talk with him. He is really nice too!

I once met Glen Turman, from 227 and A Different World, and he seemed to be down to earth. I was living in Los Angeles, and while at work, he approached me. He was with a little girl, and needed to take her, to the little girl's room. However, the meeting was brief, so I can't say much about him, as a person. Oh, and I ran into James Earl Jones again, while living in Los Angeles, and I couldn't believe my eyes. I was in the presence, of greatness.

I met Don Johnson. He was in Palm Beach looking for an address. Nice guy, very polite.

Worse thing is the LIES they make about you in the tabloid magazines. Best thing is all the money to buy anything you want. And people want to touch you when you go into a crowd.

I met John Forsythe who played on Charlie's Angels and he was a gentleman. I also met Dan Marino twice who used to play quarterback with the Miami Dolphins. He was more concerned about playing golf than anything else.

I never "met" a celebrity. I live in Maryland and about six years ago I saw (not met) Vivica Fox and her football player husband (can't remember his name) in downtown Baltimore on there way coming out of a fancy restaurant and into a limo that was waiting outside for them.
