Yes stupid title is stupid. So have you ever met a celebrity? I have met some, like Tobey Maguire when they filmed the Spiderman school bus scene which was near my friends house. When I was younger we had lots of field trips to Manhattan and got to see movies being filmed. I got a chance to High Five Adam Sandler once when they were doing stuff for Little Nicky and I said hi to Jessica Alba as an 11 when they were doing stuff for the Fantastic Four. God damn all the classmates were all, whoa dude, Jessica Alba said hi to you. Thank god for the bus breaking down.
 
Lets see... Grant Imahara (Mythbusters) came to my school and I got him to sign my slide rule. That's pretty much the closest I've ever come to meeting a celebrity. Except for $aturnYoshi of course. I talk to him all the time.
 
I've been on a picture with Jan de Hoop (Dutch news guy, and as The Netherlands only have 2 well-known news programmes he qualifies) recently came to my school and I got to be on a picture with him.

I also met and got the autograph of André Kuipers (A Dutch astronaut), when he visited my school when I still was in 7th grade.

WIN!!!
I have an autograph by Raymond Felton (NBA) that i got when he was still at UNC.
 
I was so close to meeting Fall Out Boy at one of their concerts.

But they left at the last minute.

My older sister met Simple Plan just before their concert.

I went to the concerts of the Black Eyed Peas, Rihanna and Chris Brown, but I never actually met them.

My dad's an actor on the side, so yeaaaaaah. I don't know all their names, and not all of them are particularly big, but I've met people in the acting business outside of a fan greeting sort of atmosphere.

As for names I know off the top of my head and you guys should be familiar with... I've gotten to talk to Bill Timoney after he did "And Then There Were None" with my dad at a college near here (one of my other choices besides my current actually), and he works for Funimation, directing some dubs and doing some voices. Cool guy really. Names you guys should totally know are Bill Rogers and Michelle Knotz, I don't think I really need to tell you who they are. Both are friends of my dad's, though the only talking I've done with them was at a convention, though I'm not really just a fan. :p A few other common con-goers to the tristate area are also friends of my dad's. :3

And I say this every time after I mention this stuff, but believe me or don't, I don't care. :p
