>david bowie

My neighbour won a gold medal in Sydney. He's not really famous tho.

>Singer from Pierce the Veil

Just hung out behind the venue after a show. Worked out because it was a school night so all their fans had a curfew. He was really laid back, made it easy to pretend I wasn't starstruck as fuck. Short little Mexican dude, nice guy

>Tim Heidecker

Got to talk with him on his Office Hours call-in show, he was cool but he hung up on me cause I had a terrible mic and it was causing a bunch of static

Wow, what was your meeting with Bjork like?

Princess Dianna
Spoke with her for a minute, seemed like a rather nice lady to me. Still all the meme style faux grief at her death sickened me, It was sad I suppose but there were far more tragic things going on in the world that no one gave a shit about.
>Je suis charlie.
>Paris attacks.
>etc.
Retards.

Only 2 cool ones
>Channing Frye(NBA player, plays for Cavs now)
>Nicolas Cage(he was with Elvis' daughter at the time)

Gorge Lucas while tick or treating. i a was like 8 and episode 1 had not come out yet.

he was short and grumpy and mummbled and yes he was wearing a flannel shirt. I was cool and didn't say anything weird or sperggy. his kid was all about that candy and was rushing through houses, he had a major haul.

Yeah.
Rob Dyrdek

>I shake his hand and he tells me I look familiar
>girlfriend damn near faints that he recognizes me, she thought my story was BS
>he's not allowed to sign anything

Lost the cup when I moved, damn I miss that.

Now the closest thing I know that are close to celebrities are Formula D drivers(Ross Petty, Cyrus Martinez)

Buddies dad is a musician who did a world tour with Trooper

Met rob zombie at a shitty fast food place I worked when I was 16

Met chester from linkin park taking my brother to project rev for his birthday

did DMT with diplo

was there when danzig got knocked out

I met Jan Peter Balkenende once in Rotterdam.

We talked about football (soccer) and he was being really chill. He actually lives not too far away from my house.

It was a couple years ago, she apparently was in the same hotel i was in and she was leaving to go to a concert i think, or to go record something. I was coming back from breakfast and i saw her in the hallway. I didn't know if it was her or im just racist thinking it was just some Asian that looks like her.

I just looked at her and said "bjork?", she looked back smiled and waved. I still could be wrong, but i like to believe.

I once met Sam Dekker (Houston player) in the Netherlands, he's dutch

I went to school with lady gaga. Really nice person, still talk to here every once in a while, specially when she is here in NYC

>Pierce the Veil

I met Eric Wareheim after their live Crimbus show, he was pretty cool. Tim skipped out the back door. I have a pic in my wallet in case I ever need to prove it.

>here
Her*

>Not just "i saw them at a party once" i mean you talked to them and they acknowledge you.
Way to fail the fucking simplest of instructions...

Met Nat Borchers from the Portland Timbers at a gas station near where we live

Hey I mean if you don't like the music I don't blame you, Vic's singing isn't for everyone. But they're talented musicians, especially for their genre

I married a Victoria secret model, does that count?

>Not just "i saw them at a party once" i mean you talked to them and they acknowledge you.

How fucking hard is this to get?!?

Also met Jon Bellion at his concert on Nov.7 in portland

I feel like you can find more famous people in Oregon than anywhere else. That is, the ones that aren't trashy, like L.A. celebrities.

Oregon has a pretty big community for sports related stuff

I was working at festivals. I have seen many famous musicians in person (kiss, rammstein, snoopnogg, robbie williams, david hassehoff and the list goes on and on and on).
I never tried to chat with them and I couldnt care less about famous people. Some of them are pretty chill and nice, some of them are primadonnas but most of them are just there to get paid, put on a show and leave asap with as little human contact as possible. You can call them professionals or burnouts. The line is very thin.

I can remember one clear exception, the modestep. I had a lil chit chat with them backstage few years ago. They were nice and offered me alcohol. I didnt recognize them. I tought they were the freinds of another performer. They partied like abolsute animals for 10 hours among the common folk, front row. 2 of those guys had sick moves. Cool dudes.

I have a few lil stories like this but nothing intresting.

nigga i talked to him, it just wasn't intersing conversation. I was fucking 8. it was like hi how you doing? happy Halloween and shit, he is a grumpy little man you doesn't talk to people and hates his fans. not even mentioning i've seen him like driving around and in the store and shit after episode one had him back in town.

this nigga just saw a small Asian lady.

I used to rap and opened up gor/hung out with people that used to be famous lol

Bubba Sparxxx
Fabolous
Three6Mafia
Nappy Roots

>in California
>my friend says I'm going to high five random people
>i decided to join
>high-five a few people
>one person grabs my hand and stares at me
>it's Mark Hamill
>he starts laughing like the joker
>let's go and walks away
>mfw

booty booty rockin' everywhere, baaalllin'!

Fucked Marilyn Chambers
Jammed with Eddie VanHalen
Regularly invited to Ritchie Blackmore's parties

I met Tawnee Stone (an old porn star) about a year ago.
She came into my job with her husband(?) to buy a new washer. The entire time I recognized her face, but I couldn't place her for the life of me. It wasn't until about a week later I realized who she actually was.
Also I felt like a complete idiot because I didn't realize Tawnee Stone wasn't her real name.

I love Mark Hamill

You try and defend your fucking "trick or treat" faggotry and than you mock someone else's experience when your initial one wat total SHIT?!?!? Fucking kill yourself

Met flava flav and his son who was boxing at our gym, actually a really regular nice guy and his son was cool too. Really just a regular dude.

Ross & holly, where and how?

You met Modestep? Lucky mf. My bet friend is a head resident DJ for an electronic club so I get to personally meet most headliners we bring in. Coolest two dudes were Cookie Monsta and Funtcase, it was my birthday & me and my friend got backstage and were the only ones to get to talk to them literally right after their set. Badass accents.

I talked to and shook hands with the prince of Liechtenstein.

Did you ask Matt why they kicked out Orion?

He's actually a really cool guy... Was taking shots with everyone and shit

>gene and paul from kiss
did a show earlier in the evening. i worked at a hotel they stayed in. got out of their shuttle van in front of the hotel, quickly shuffled into elevators. no kiss makeup, tho. wearing white bath robes.

>dave brockie from gwar
did a show locally with his side project thing, dave brockie experience. my friend was in a band that was opening up for them. dave came over before the whole thing started just to shoot the shit a little (and to make sure everyone in the opening band was actually there)

Met Dave Goelz. even stayed at his house

>sitting at taco bell
>wearing a game grumps shirt
>ross slides into the seat in front of me and just stares at me with a big smile
>holly comes over and apologize as she yanks him from the seat
>ross whining that he was to sit with the fan
>im just baffled by the situation

wow your salty. it was cool to met the star wars guy as a kid. idk what your looking for, i'd never believe anyone on Sup Forums claiming more then a random encounter.

and com'on man, i think the Bjork guy can take a joke so fucking lame.

>>actors

Friend of mine is on her way to being famous. Has a few small time acting gigs in the works. Been a year now since she moved out to California and pretty sure I'll never see her again...
Got another friend who's in the pitching rotation for the Oakland A's. We say hi about once a year whenever he comes home.

No, we talked about voice acting.

I used to kick around with Taika Waititi when we were kids.
I stayed with the Thompson Twins on their private beach (they were huge in the 80's)
Meet a fuckton of actors and musicians when I was going out when I was younger

I was at a casino in Evansville Indiana once playing craps and Ron Jeremy stood next to me and started playing... When the dice came around to him he stayed rolling like shit and i lost a bunch of money.

I was like "bro, you're killing me use you're 3rd arm or something" table laughed and ron just starred at me for a second then busted out hysterically

Jon Bellion is dope

I'm going to assume you ment that your not going to see her again because she will get famous and never come back, and not get rejected and burn out a loser forgotten forever.... yeah optimism!

I know it wasn't me, John wayne gacy was at my uncles 9th birthday party as a clown.

Met the Zodiac killer once.
Nice guy, misunderstood.

Jack White came into work one day. I was in a really shitty mood and ended up spaghetting.

Really nice guy though. Cool as fuck.

Lucky. I fucking love Tim and Eric.

my list of people i actually met and had a chat with, not just saw on the street:
>Jack Black
>Necrobutcher/Hellhammer from Mayhem
>Sam Neil
>Ben Browder/Gigi Edgley/Lani Tupu
>Vanilla Ice
>Serj Tankian a million fucking times
>Peter Jackson a million fucking times
>Russel Crowe
>Jason Statham

a few more (tyler the creator, the dudes from coldplay etc) but listed are the only ones i give a fuck about.

My band played a show with Gwar about a year ago so I got to meet those dudes. Also my dad went to high school with the guys from Mudvayne so I get to see Chad and Greg every once in a blue moon. I worked on a food truck and served food to Passion Pit and Benny Benassi at Electric forest 20...13? I think? Cant remember. Met Lauryn Hill the next year. Same year I met Nick Cave, Kanye West, Animals as Leaders, Mastodon and Meshuggah at Bonnaroo due to same food truck. About a year later Black Dahlia Murder came through my town and since they were playing at a club my band played at frequently I got to smoke with Trevor, that was pretty much the highlight, and then another year later got to hang out with the guys in Psychostick at the same club.

They are all almost exactly like youd expect, except for Kanye, he's actually much more down to earth than I was anticipating.

Burn out or not, she's never coming back to Alabama. Can't say I'd blame her either...

Oh yeah? Hows he doing since the whole "Losing the republican nomination" thing?

trev is such a good cunt. met him in 2014

film director Paul Thomas Anderson

He's the chillest dude ever. I sat and picked his brain for hours about lyricism. By far the best smoke session I've ever had. I only wish that one day I can tell as vivid stories with my lyrics.

My list
>Snoop Dogg twice
>Jennifer Lawrence

>invited to one of the game of thrones cast party, got to meet a bunch of the actors
>i saw sasha gray at a gas station, jokingly called out "i like your ass" and she responds with "i like your cock" and continues with her day
>i met the creators of rick and morty
>i met Jeff Bridges, Steve Buscemi, and John Goodman on the set of big Lebowski when i was a kid
>met the cast of sleepycabin at a bar, bought them all a round

Work in a bar, Jon trombone walks in, he got smashed, pretty cool guy.

i ran into mc hammer and talked with him for maybe 10 minutes - asked me who i was and i said eh, just a nobody. then he dropped this on me:

"Nobody's a nobody"

I met Gene Simmons at a hotel once, and K-OS after a concert. Gene was super chill despite me hating Kiss. I was like 12 and he gave me a high five and everything. Made a 12 year old rock lover's week. K-OS was a super cool guy. After his show during a little festival in Canada he came over to the fence and was taking pictures with fans one by one. Even stayed to have a little chat with everyone and rocked out to City and Colour with us

Stellan Skarsgard. We talked like daily for a few years.

I'm friends with the lead signer of Battlecross. Met him a few times at shows and we just kinda clicked. Hung out a few times with him and some of the other members of the band whenever they came to town.

Found out a few weeks later that my sister was dating his cousin. He even showed up to their wedding a couple of years later, which was cool, as I really didn't know too many of the people there. Not really world famous, but it's still nice knowing someone like him.

I'm Irish so any celebrities in met wouldn't be too known internationally, I used to neighbours with Johnny Giles who used be play football for Leeds Utd. When I was a kid the whole neighbourhood would play football and he would join in sometimes.
I work in a shop and a regular customer is Liam Cunningham who plays the onion knight in game of thrones, the dude who was stannis baratheons number 2.

Lexi Belle crashed into me while snowboarding once. Met her at the bottom of the mountain and she apologized, chatted for a minute, then she went back up the mountain with her friend.

Extremely hot in real life.

i met john jarrat. I told him about me picking up a hitchhiker and asking him if he watched wolf creek and how he got super nervous

John told me thats an asshole thing to do, i thought he would've laughed of all people

I sold anthony weiner oxy once

Lived in LA for a couple years. Met Red Foreman when i worked at Borders Books, super chill, asked himabout playing the president in the star trek movies. Also cypress hill stole my copy of Knights of the Old Republic.

Met customgrow420 a few years ago

Erik Koston - pro skater- nice guy
Robyn, actually know her, she read harry potter to me in a park in stockholm, the first book..wasnt that interested tbh.
the swedish king waved at me when i was working.
met the whole band of Amon Amarth, won a contest so they let me pre-listen to the jomsviking album with the band and have a chat, was kindof cool.

Met Tommy Lee back during the first recent Motley Crue tour in Aus (Carnival of Sins).

They borrowed bikes for on stage from mates dads club.

He was pretty cool got some pics but in some boxes somewhere.

Met Corey Taylor a few years ago and saw Chris Evans once

Oh shit almost forgot, used to live in the same apt complex as Chyna from wwf, saw her at the tobacco shop and korean bbq place every few days. RIP

I worked for and got to know Michael Pitt, actor for a Jim Darmody from Boardwalk Empire, as well as Hannibal Villain "Mason Verger"

Isn't that an episode of friends or some shit...Fell in love with a prince from Lichtenstein...Something like that...ROSEANNE! The fuck are you doing here, Jackie?

I used to think he was alright. Until I watched how he treats his guests on his shows, he's a fucking asshole to them.

Really ruined the whole cool stoner vibe shit for me. I realized a lot of them are like him, just petty and assholes.

Thats pretty cool running into him like that though.

I also met the indie rock group "Grouplove" really cool bunch of people

Went to high school with Doug Martin, NFL player for Tampa Bay. We had bio class together. He's pretty chill and laid back.

I went to elementary school with Hulk Hogan's kid. We went to the same grocery stores and comic book/card shop. We saw him a couple times there and he'd usually buy everybody in the store something, signed stuff. Bought me and my brother a few things, pokemon decks. I got Zap, he got Overgrowth

Awww shit dat bojack outro gets me everytime....

Didn't talk to him, but Matt Damon acknowledged me being on set. "Oh hey, he brought his kid."

And Elijah Wood and his sister used to babysit me and my sister. Lived across the street and left a large box of batman toys when he did. One of the happiest days of my young life.

i went out with nikki sixx's cousin. met him backstage at a show. kind of a dick

...

heh, I do appreciate the deep reference to star trek thing.

My uncle in LA goes way outta his way to meet friends of a friends of people who worked on star trek. like the lady who played Gordie la forges hologram girlfriend for two episodes.

Did you say "share the load" when he brougjt over the batman toys?

Went to school with the kid of the voice actor for The Brain, Toucan Sam, and Kif. Birthday parties and we'd hand out and stuff. Billy West came to one of them.

somebody put her nudes on Sup Forums a few years ago

Awww shit i remember that

My dad is a producer, so yeah. Fuck you.

neat

I was way young. Hasn't seen anything he'd been in. I remember my parents going to seeThe Two Towers some years later. Growing up and seeing shit he's been in has been pretty neat.
