I'm sure alot of people in here has at least a time or 2 in their lives have actually met some of these million dollar celebrities like Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and I'm sure many more. And maybe tell us how many autograph's you got from some of these million dollars per movie celebrities. Or who you'd love to meet but you're planning to someday.
My encounter with a celebrity was about 2 years ago me and my mom took a 3 day trip to go to Nashville Tn. Because I was going to a fanclub party of one of my favourite singers that lives in Nashville LeAnn Rimes. And I gotta say I had a blast meeting her and I managed to get 2 pictures of her and me she's such a sweet heart I also got 2 autograph's from her. And she's truly a wonderful person. I also got to meet her husband Dean Sheremet and her mother Belinda and I got autograph's from them too. All very nice sweet people. And whatever pictures I have of them and me I consider them the happiest day of my life. It was a hot humid day. And being from Canada I wasn't used to the very, very hot weather in Nashville but I had a lot of fun. And about 10 years or so before that. When I was younger and I had a babysitter when I was about 10 or so years old. I admired Christopher Reeve as his role of Superman. So back then I managed to send him a nice letter telling him how much I liked him and his great costume and great character he played in the old Superman movies many years ago. And when Christmas came a couple of months later a miracle happened. He had wrote back (This was long before he got Paralized). And he sent me an autographed Superman post card and his message to me was: QUOTE To my greatest fan, Eat fruit love Christopher Reeve . I still have that autograph somewhere and when I find it trust me I will have it framed because I got an autograph from Christopher Reeve himself. I would love to meet Reese Witherspoon someday because she seems like another sweet and lovely lady and I would be thrilled to meet her and talk to her about her movies like: Walk The Line and Just Like Heaven and some of her other great movies. And I would also love to meet Kate Beckinsale and tell her I love her in the movies of Underworld and would ask her if I could star in it with her.

I've met Tom Suozzi once at a store where I was working at. He was not nice at all, in fact he did not smile or say thank you when I was finished with his order.

I've met Tom Suozzi I had to look up who that was. I wonder how many names posted in here will be unknown to other people? |

I have had the privilege of meeting James Earl Jones (Darth Vader) when he came to our town to promote the refurbishing of our local theater, where he got his start on the stage. He was raised in a little town east of here, Dublin, MI. He signed copies of his book "Voices and Silences" for us and did the narative for a video about our theater. It really surprised me when I realized he has blue eyes. Then in his book I found that one of his grandmothers was caucasian, Irish to be exact.
More recently I visited with Lee Greenwood of Country Western fame; notably "God Bless the USA". He was performing at our local casino last fall. I went to school with him back in 19mmm. We talked over school times back in North Sacramento. I still have my year book that he hadn't signed, so I asked him to sign it 50 years late. He was a darling in school and still is. I also communicate by e-mail with his sister who is back in the Sacramento, CA area. If you visit my personal homepage site you can see pics of both of them.

And just recently I saw one of these million dollar celebrities just 2 or 3 weeks ago. David Copperfield came to town to do some of his very impressive magic tricks. And at least one trick I've seen him do before on tv. He sent someone to some tropical Island someplace. (If you saw his Tornado of Fire then you'll know what I'm talking about). And he did a few other new tricks I've never seen him do before. But when he did his trick to send someone to someplace very far away. When he reappeared in the place I was seeing him "NAC, National Arts Center". He appeared just to or 3 rows behind me and me mom. I never really met him but I got close enough to him.

I had a random band member sign my arm at a concert. Three Days Grace, maybe? I can't even remember what band. I guess that could count as meeting.
I know a few local musicians in bands with labels and cd's out. I believe I've met, or at least seen, Brad Gushue.. the curling dude for Canada. I doubt no one knows who he is, but he's got his own highway and street here :\ I had the chance to meet an olympic gold medalist in triathlon, but the guy who was supposed to ask him to stop over forgot. I wasn't pleased. Hmm.. who else. I know a few people who are pretty big nationally with swimming, but I doubt anyone else will have heard of them. |
