    Well living in LA you can see a shitload but we learn not to make a big deal out of it since they're so common.

    But I think Miley Cyrus hated me because my friends took a pic with her and they were all like "Raffi get in the pic well ask someone to take it for us" and I'm all like "no it's ok I don't wanna be in it :slight_smile:."

    Although if I do see Steve Carell THAN some shit is gonna be going down. ^_^

    I was on the same flight from Washington DC to Dallas as Eric Estrada once. I got to shake his hand and he signed my ticket stub! Also, I used to sail a bit when I was younger, and an Olympic Gold Medalist sailor was a member of the same yacht club.

    I generally don't tell people because they never beleive me, but I am online so I don't give a shit.

    When Joshua Cribbs went to Kent State University, he lived next to me as we lived near there. My brother was interviewed by the news when he got arrested for selling marijuana from his apartment. And we both have his autograph. :3

    He's a pro-football player, for the best team ever..the Browns! lol

    I sold a bubble gun at work to Paris Hilton (my friend and I both saw her and we did a quick rock-paper-scissors to see who got to help her--I won!!). A couple weeks ago, I had to tell Travis Barker that my cart was all out of hot chocolate (he was extremely kind about it). I also saw Whoopi Goldberg pass by, and I saw David Archuleta being escorted around backstage (Priority I VIPs get backstage access).

    Good times :slight_smile:

    I saw Hugh Laurie and Emma Thompson on the walk of fame while on holiday in LA!!!

    I also saw Jennifer Aniston in the same holiday, at the premier of 'The Switch.'

    Me and four friends happened upon a Broadway premiere on accident once while in Manhattan and we gained the attention of David Hasselhoff. He made a point to tell us "Don't hassle the hoff."

    Also while in PAX once I saw Jesse L. Martin. Although he got annoyed because I may have made everyone else in the place notice that he was Jesse L. Martin. No one knew who he was though! I was appalled at the other people and upset my friends weren't with me because we all had a huge RENT obsession phase.

    I've met various celebrities through concerts, signings, that kind of thing. I've only accidentally met two celebs by chance.

    While in new york during new years '09 me and my cousin ran into Tiger Woods on the streets. Pre-Scandal thankfully.

    and.... I happened to be staying in the same hotel as Nicki Minaj and some of the other members of Young Money. They were really cool and signed things for everyone.

    Well, the celebs I see are mostly CEO's and Forbes Richest people. I cleaned Paul Newman's summer compound after his children sold it.

    I was gonna post on how I've run into Steve Carell like five times. One was at Kohls, then Lowes, and then the supermarket. All on different occasions. Its weird, but he lives only a town away from me.

    Annnnnd, I was in the same theatre, only rows away from Neil Patrick Harris a few years back. Love at first sight (and this was before either of us were out). I took a picture with him during intermission, but I lost the camera.

    I saw Art Linkletter at my local, small town grocery store. (Apparantly his daughter has a second home here.) Beyond that...I shook hands with the at that time governor or Idaho several years ago.

    (And I bet absolutely nobody my age or younger has any idea who that is.)

    My brother ran into Julia Roberts in a mall, though.

    one of my best friends lives in malibu so she sees famous people ALL THE TIME. her mom owns a gym and matthew mcconaughey works out there all the time. once she was in line behind Pink at a super market and P!nk asked her opinion on what candy to buy.

    i'm always getting random texts from her about the random celebs that she sees.
