1.
George Clooney – Chill, friendly guy but the most jarring thing was that the tan is 100% fake -
2.
I was walking down the street in NYC holding my friend’s baby and we walked by Willem Dafoe. He stopped right in front of me and said “Hi baby” to the baby, in a nice but kinda creepy way. But maybe just creepy coming from him. -
3.
Nick Offerman. It was my bachelor party and we happen to be eating at the same bratwurst restaurant. As he was leaving we asked if he was open to take some pictures. I had asked him if he had any marriage advice. And this is what he said. 1. You’re doing the right thing. 2. She is always right. 3. EAT LOTS OF SAUSAGES. -
4.
Michael Buble was my youth rockclimbing coach/instructor. -
5.
Keanu Reeves stayed at my mom’s bed and breakfast for a weekend in the mid 90’s. He was traveling with his band before shooting speed. He was awesome, we showed him around town and played video games together. -
6.
Prince! He was at a professional salsa contest, at a place called, The Mayan, early 2000s. I ran up to him after, in my heels, stopped in front of him, two huge bodyguards on each side, but I froze. He looked at me and said…”you’re adorable”, they kept walking. Lol! -
7.
I saw Helena Bonham Carter walking across Tower Bridge at rush hour. No one noticed her but me (it seemed) and she shot me a look like…”please don’t make a scene”. I didn’t. -
8.
I was a student picking up waitering jobs in London. I worked a shift at the British museum where they were opening a new exhibit. The Queen was invited to come and open the exhibit. There was a lot of buzz about the Queen coming, and security was everywhere. However the real VIP in attendance was Sir David Attenborough. I saw him inconspicuously arrive and slip into the crowd. I went straight up to him and offered him a drink. Just as I spoke to him the Queen was announced and everyone started to line up to be greeted (like that scene from Mr Bean). So he turned and said to me “I don’t want to be caught with a drink in my hand by the queen” and he chuckled. The Queen only spoke a single word to everyone except when she got to him. She stopped and they chatted and laughed for 5 minutes before she continued down the line. Sir David, what a legend! -
9.
My wife’s aunt used to own a store in a small town where movies were often filmed. One day a man and woman came in and approached the counter. The woman wanted some specific item, but the aunt wasn’t sure if they carried it. After a few questions the man said he was going to look around the shop. Once he was out of earshot, the aunt said, “Your husband looks exactly like Harrison Ford!” The woman said, “Yes, that’s because he is Harrison Ford.” -
10.
I met Elton John on a plane. People don’t believe me because, why tf would Sir Elton be flying commercial. He bought every ticket in first class and when I walked by I did a double take and he gave me a smile and a nod. -
11.
My uncle met Morgan Freeman in an airport once. Apparently he said “Hey, aint’chu that fella in the movies?” and they talked for about an hour. -
12.
James Gandolfini. He bought a home in central Manitoba and I delivered a bedroom suite to him. Was very nice and tipped my helper a $100. -
13.
I had a coffee with Tom Hardy once before he got really famous. It was back in the very early 2000s when he still a struggling actor in London. Seriously nice dude. -
14.
I was ice skating in NYC at Rockefeller Center and Conan was having lunch in one of the restaurants that face the rink. I took a nasty fall and Conan stands up, applauds and laughs hysterically at me. After I am done skating, I am walking thru the concourse at Rock Center, stop at a Starbucks and order a coffee. The guy behind me puts his hand on my shoulder and says, “I got this.” It was Conan. He apologized for laughing at me, buys me a $50 gift card and then calls his assistant who got me a car to drive me home. -
15.
I had a brief email exchange with Mark Cuban. I was a college kid working on a project and figured why not, I’ll email him a question about something I’m working on. I was shocked and delighted when he answered. He was nothing but the most cordial and friendly person, I’ve always had a lot of respect for him but even more so now since he emailed little old me back once and took the time to help me with what I was working on. -
16.
I work at a luxury skin care store. Met lots of celebs but my favourite was Jake Gyllenhaal. He was holding an empty cup of ice cream from a local place. I got ballzy and asked him which flavor he got. He said ” cookies and cream” to which I replied “solid choice”, he then deeply looked into my soul with his beautiful eyes and said ” I don’t f*** around”. Praising myself to this day for keeping it professional. -
17.
I met and hung out with Kelly Clarkson for an hour or two on her talk show as a guest. I wrote a comedy parody song that went minorly viral. She was an extremely nice person and was an incredible host. -
18.
Ed Sheeran. I was 9-10 and I got lost at a festival and ended up backstage. He helped me find my family, very nice man :) -
19.
My ex wife was good friends with Floyd Mayweather. Him and his wife would hang out with us on occasion and I did the brakes on their mini van. Really nice guy but you could tell he got hit in the head one too many times.
