Models are just as much celebrities, though I sometimes wonder why...
Cymruambyth, you managed to totally beat me on all 5, including Stephen Lewis as I doubt you're really that fascinated with Blakey from On the Buses. Or maybe? I'm trying to work out which field they'd be in I'd be unlikely to know about, and either film directors/prodcers, US/Canadian politicians or TV presenters or maybe circus performers, although I may have heard of a few of them!

Perhaps some of these individuals are not traditionally placed in the celebrity category. However if celebrity is defined by fame, unique character/behaviour/talent then I believe these people qualify.
Besides the PM has the most beautiful blue eyes and the cutest grin! I'll start the bidding at $62.50 it's all I've got 'til payday. *wink*

Sean Connery is from Edinburgh, as I am and my mum remembered him from those days. He had many jobs but one of them was as a lifeguard in one of our outdoor swimming pools. She also remembered him from a double date at the movies with her best pal. Have you or any of your family had a close encounter?

zeissa Roseanne Barr was at this Air Force giving autographs and promoting some event. I had the choice to go over and shake her hand and turned it down. I don't like her.

Calley My mothers best friend Maurine married Ringo Starr from The Beatles but she died from breast cancer. She used to hang out with all that crowd and has a peice of toilet paper framed which has a letter written by John Lennon.
As for myself, I met Kylie Mingoues boyfriend Olivier Martinez at the Dubai World Cup Horse races this last year and got a very nice picture with him! Then at a concert/gig for Babyshambles, Pete Doherty (Kate Moss's boyfriend) accidently threw a glass at my head.

bluest_ann I rambled on about this on the music thread a few months ago but I'm happy to blabbity blah some more! In September I won a contest to have lunch with Jim Cuddy, lead singer of Blue Rodeo. It was amazing; he's such a nice guy, and after he sang a couple of numbers he told me he liked my singing, that we made great harmony together. What can I say; I couldn't help myself. I came this close to telling him I had long dreamed of being his backup singer but I stayed mum. I didn't want to scare the poor guy and put him in stalker-avoidance mode.

TheRambler I was at the Free concert in 1970 at the Eldorado in Leith
Edinburgh, which was an old boxing arena. Paul Rodgers ran past me and my pal and I reached out and touched him. I got his sweat on my hand and we cried all the way home! Fifteen year old and now at fifty-one I would go out my way to meet him and shake his hand.

Lemmyrules One night in the winter of 1994, I was eating breakfast with my ex-girlfriend and one of my bandmates. It was about 1:00 A.M. and we were at a truck stop, next to Interstate 45 that runs between Dallas and Houston. A bus pulled into the parking lot. All of the members of the rock group Rage Against The Machine, got off of the bus and came into the truck stop to eat. I didn't approach them. I figured they would like to eat their meal in peace.

Unknowingly stood behind Tom Hanks in a checkout line at the gift shop at the London Tower. I was too wrapped up in deciding which fridge magnets to buy when I heard the voice of Woody asking which way to the Crown Jewels and talking about giving his "Pennies to the Paupers". I nearly snapped my own neck turning around to locate the sound of the voice I've heard three times a day every day for a year in my household but couldn't go after him to say hello and introduce my son to the man behind "Woody" from 'Toy Story' because of those same da*n magnets. I did however tell my husband who was able to chase him down with his mother in tow just for her to walk past Tom and say "Excuse me" as if he was in her way! She was thrilled to have the encounter but said Rita Wilson didn't look too receptive at the moment so she didn't say anything else.

A few weeks later we saw Vanessa Williams at the Palace of Versailles. I knew I recognized her but couldn't place her as I thought she was someone I knew from the post office or bank. I was close enough to poke her in the eye but she got away before I could say "Hey, I know you from somewhere" never realizing she is a movie star. She was dressed down in denim with no make-up on at all and didn't have an entourage so I can't fault myself for not knowing her at first. I was surprised at how bad her skin is considering how good she looks on camera!

...also failed to mention that she looks deceptively tall on camera but she is very petite!

bluest_ann You know who else is short in stature? Gary Sinise. My friend who stands 4'10" encountered him along the red carpet at the TO film festival a couple of years ago. He apparently made a beeline for her and shook her hand and she said he was well under six feet, closer to 5'7". I theorized that his publicist advised him to always look for short people in a crowd in case his picture gets taken during photo ops. My friend wasn't too impressed with my theory (gee, I can't imagine why...there's an advantage there). But if you watch CSI:NY you'll see that many of the camera angles shoot him from below. I'm just saying...

In 1982, at a Lone Star convenience store outside of San Antonio, Texas I stood in line in front of Willie Nelson, He was buying a six-pack of beer and had a lovely senorita by his side. Nobody bothered him, but he acknowledged everyone who said hello to him.

I'd have to say that would be the ideal celebrity encounter Frank. To see someone who is just out on their own, with no entourage, not being mobbed and still being gracious enough to speak to the 'regular folk' as they go about their business.

Being a blackjack dealer in Vegas, I've met quite a few celebrities. Most recently I met Mel Gibson, Justin Timberlake, David Hasselhoff and Harry Connick Jr. We see a lot of sports figures too. I've met ear biting, Mike Tyson, a few times. He was so sweet when he first started out in his boxing career, but changed so much over the years. It's always fun meeting people from the 'big' world though. I think my favorite would be Mrs. Griswold from the "Vacation" movies. She was so kind!

tvfan121 A few years ago, my family and I were at Chicken and Waffles in Hollywood, we came extremly close to Destiny's Child! :) They were sitting a few tables down from us. Unfortunatly, they had like 10 bodyguards surrounding their table.

funelle I met Jennifer Aniston today--it turns out we have the same dog groomer!

Her dog Norman, a shepard-terrier kinda dog, was very sweet, as was Jennifer. She looked great, just glowing, and really was very down to earth...!

It was exciting after watching her on Friends for so long...!

I did meet Cory Feldman at Knott's Berry Farm in California when I was working there at the time. He walked through the shop I was working in and stopped to sign autographs and say hi. That was awesome!
