I don't know if mine count. I was in a play with Idina Menzel (Rent, Wicked, married to Taye Diggs) in high school.

Also I've met a decent amount of past and present Islanders. Most of the time we were interrupting their post game dinner.

I met Richard Bey when my friend and I were supposed to be on his show (anyone remember him?) He was short too!!



The name sounds sooo familiar, but I don't remember ANYTHING about the show!

Edited because I remembered some celebrities (small ones) that i have met!!

I met Marc Marrone, the guy that has the cable show 'Pet Keeping'. He has a store in LI and sells beautiful birds.

FH reminded me that I met Juliana Hatfield. We were at a bar where she was playing and I was in line for the bathroom right before the show. She asked if she could cut in front of me since she had to play soon.

So yay! I have met some semi famous people!!

Omg.. If I can look like one famous celebrity.. it would definately be Salma. She is (IMO) the most beautiful woman in the world.

Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie when they were filming Mr. & Mrs Smith in Soho last year. They were both very nice they signed autographs for everyone.

I met James Gandolfini from the Sopranos. They were filming an episode of the series on my block. He was very nice. FH gave him a cigar which he smoked on the Sopranos...

Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke (when they were married). We met them at the Blue Water Grill restaurant in Union Square. She is very tall and skinny in person, very nice.

Depeche Mode & Woody Harelson. Long time ago at the Club USA in Times Square. They were there after a concert and we had passes with the press.

Let's see

Katerina Witt (the ice skater)
Puff Daddy in the Hamptons
Dee Schneider (twisted Sister) At the Outback steakhouse in setauket
I was invited to a X-mas party a few years ago for ABC at the Pierre Hotel and all of the soap stars were there, I know at the time I met a lot of them, but I wasn't into soaps so I really didn't care.

And i sat next to Dan Akroyod at Elaine's in the city. I didn't want to bother him as he was with a whole bunch of people. So I guess that doesn't really count.

Gandolfini hangs out at a place in the meat packing district called the Gaslight - I'm sure most have heard of it. Actually most the cast does as well.

Gandolfini - total coke head.

Re: What celeb did you meet in person?

wow you all meet a lot of people!

I haven't really met anyone.

I saw Tyson Beckford in South Beach but didn't have the nerve to go up to him. What a body!!!!!!!!!!!! Besides I was with FH he was annoyed with me drooling over him.

I also worked at the gym Dee Snyder went to.

I had a chance last year to meet all of the knicks but I was in a bad mood that day and decided not to go (it was a work thing).
