Have u ever met a celebrity?

[Anonymous]

If yes, who was it, in what context did y’all meet them and were they nice, mean?

[Lliam]

Quite a few. All the ones I've met have been super nice. I don't want to try to name them all. But I had conversations with Mel Torme, Cliff Roberson, Frank Tallman (famous movie pilot and airplane museum co-owner), Al Lewis (Grandpa Munster on the TV series), Dan Haggerty (Grizzley Adams. I actually went to his house), Fess Parker, Roger Glover (Deep Purple bassist), Stephen Stills, Graham Nash, Grace Slick, Richard Thomas, Jimmy Witherspoon, Rory Gallagher, Martin Barre (Jethro Tull guitarist), Jimmy Dore and his wife Stefane Zamorano, General Michael Flynn, ...
I was friends with Toby Halicki who made the original Gone in Sixty Seconds movie.
I was friends with Bruce U. Utah Phillips.
The only one who was kind of a dick was David Carradine.

yes, but only during meet and greets at concerts. Everyone was nice because they're paid to be at that time.

Lmaoo and who u met?

[provokeesmokee]

Met Colin Mocherie at a local comedy fest.

He was very polite, but our meeting was brief because another person was mega-faning over him and he was politely just taking them in stride. It was clear he was doing his best not to encourage interaction, but the fan was clearly not picking up on the hint.

[Asker]

Dunno who is that but cool!

[provokeesmokee]

I'm probably aging myself - he's a big name in Canadian comedy and was a mainstay on Whose Line is it Anyways. It was a big improv comedy show in the early 00s I think.

I don't know a hand full of people... Comedian Eric André use to live a few streets from me as a kid. We went to the same school. He was a grade behind me, but so was one of my closet friends that lived down the street who was forced into K1 (an extra grade of school between Kindergarten and First Grade). So they knew each other from elementary school classes. As a kid Eric was kind of nerdy. We went to different middle/high schools because he took the offer to go to Dreyfoos School of the Arts in West Palm Beach. I got an offer to go there for free as well, but turned it down because you had to ride a school bus for like an hour there and then an hour home at the end of the day and had to leave all your friends behind. That probably why he kind of seemed like a loner at the time. Anyway, as a teen he spent a lot of time hanging out on the basketball courts at the teen center skating until the skate park was built sometime in high school. He kind of ran in that circle and was an acquaintance. I remember him hanging out with us and drinking with us a few times and he was at a lot of the same keg parties growing up. He just seemed out of place like he didn’t belong and was kind of a tag along kid, but he was friendly in general and more friends with other people I knew. My circle of friends were pretty much party animals that went to all kinds of house keg parties, night clubs, and other events drinking like crazy, doing drugs, sleeping around, getting into mischief. I remember he was kind of straight edge like he’d only drink but not do other drugs, wasn’t as wild, and wanted to skate a lot. Then years later my little brother sees him on YouTube like this guy is crazy as hell you have to check this out… I’m like he looks really family what’s his name? I’m like ha I think I know that guy. It’s weird to see a kid you wouldn’t really think as wild act so crazy for his job, because we were fucking nuts as kids and all grew up pretty normal.

VitalyzdTV guy use to be friends with my little brother’s circle of friends. I saw him around a few times here and there. To me he was just one of the kids my little brother hung out with sometimes. I didn’t think too much about it. There was such a age gap. He was just a little jit. I remember in high school Vitaly and some girl that was in my little brother’s classes since they were in Kindergarten ended up signing with BangBros to do a porno and my brothers circle of friends were all clowning about it on team speak. My little bro couldn’t believe she was going to do porn. She was a straight edge girl in enrichment classes that was a goody two-shoes on the surface. They joked a lot about him not being able to keep wood and what not. Then the zombie prank in Miami went viral a little later and he made it with what he was doing.

I saw Ariana Grande around the Town Center Mall a few times. She’s close in age to one of my brother’s. She was just a kid at that time. I remember some people saying she was a singer at the time. I didn’t really care too much then and I still don’t really care that much.

The Boca Raton Resort & Club was down the street from my childhood house so there were always visiting presidents to the area. I’ve seen a handful of them around. They were just all business fund raising/paid speeches/meet and greets and shit like that. Very political, very fake, very orchestrated... I also remember George H. W. Bush coming to my middle school when I was a kid. He was at the school library and I was wondering the halls to go take a leak while getting out of English class. The Secret Service were all like you can’t go in there, use a differ bathroom the President is busy like a 13 year old kid is going to take the President out or whatever. Not very friendly or inviting... I thought they were ridiculous at the time. The Boca Raton Concours d'Elegance is also held at the Boca Resort so when I’d go to the car show I often saw people like Jay Leno, Tim Allen, Jeff Foxworth, Dennis Miller, etc. who were MCs I guess. All kinds of other rich people were there as well… That’s Boca. They were always pretty fake playing the nice guy role glad handing people as part of their appearance everyone having a good time, it’s a nice day, yada yada yada… My brother also use to work at the watercolors cafe over on lake Boca so a couple of times I stopped in I saw professional tennis players like Chris Evert eating a meal. No big deal, just some random people eating trying to live their lives.

Adam Sandler and a few other celebrities would send checks to my parents company on a regular basis… My parents did the accounting and property management for very places. Sandler kept his mom and brother in one of the Condos my parents did work for and visit them from time to time. We use to stop in the office and talk to the board and pick up bills, mail, etc. from time to time and drop of things like financials, get things signed, etc. as part of normal business and customer service and we’d see some celebrities in passing as they came and went.

I remember William Rosenberg the founder of Dunkin’ Donuts tried to hire my mom before. He sat down and talked with her, he liked her and the services the family business were offering, but he wanted her to drop all of her other clients and work exclusively for him every day. He was very demanding and particular and wouldn’t compromise to be just one of the company’s clients so my mom turned down a billionaire and told him he’d have to find someone else. He wasn’t happy about not getting his way. She had a lot of wealthy clients she did personal booking keeping from many different corporate fortunes. Certain remembers of the Kennedy would stop in the office from time to time and chat about this and that… They were always nice people in person.

I knew the Italian Maffia in Boca. I won’t say names, but I hung out with the three kids who’s parents were involved… I’d see the papers make a big deal about “famous mobsters” being in Boca Raton from time to time and they were guys I’d see in a hot dog shop (front) here and there. One of the kids I ran with was the son of a captain from what I understood and he lived in a multi-million dollar mansion on Lake Boca. So I had met all the wise guys as it were here and there.

I met the previous head of the Knights Hospitaller who was some Baroness of Malta or whatever in a check out line at Publix grocery store. She seemed like a nice little old lady at the time even though she was royalty or whatever in the public eyes… There were a lot of rich people in Boca that were know for all sort of things. I’ve seen a lot of them around, here and there, talked with them, played sports with their children, etc… I couldn’t list them all. One of my brothers went to Saint Andrew's School so he was friends with all sorts of extremely wealthy kids who parents might be considered famous. That’s just Boca… I’ve never been impressed by fame and fortune. That shit was all around me as a kid so it’s not all glitter and gold.
