Okay, interviewing celebrities is one thing, but have you ever met someone famous on a street or in a store or at a bar?
I bumped into a porno star, literally...I was shopping at the music store that sells regular/non-porn movies. I was not watching where I was going and I bumped into a guy wearing leather.
He was a porn star by the name of Wade Neff. He was in town for the gay pride festivals for Vancouver.

I'm not sure if many of you would know these people, but I've seen Jane Turner (Kath from Kath & Kim) out shopping, and also seen Anthony Callea, Geoffrey Rush, Ian Smith (Harold from Neighbours), Tottie Goldsmith, and Katie Underwood at premieres that I've gone to

Never actually "bumped" into one, but I do manage to see quite a few of them...mostly driving though...one in particular was driving a Lamboghini Diablo...a month or so ago...and while sitting in traffic on the 101 I turned to my left and there was Jay Leno in one of his old cars talking to the lady to his left...and there was Dulé Hill (The West Wing) not 2 feet from me in the refrigerated foods section...
Leigh was right, the only one I know of on his list is Geoffrey Rush...and of course, who doesn't know Monica Seles...I used to wonder which was scarier looking, her or Stephi Graff...Yeah, Stephi won hands down...

but does Stephi Graff hav a manlier grunt then Monica Seles - thats the question ! DUde, i would love to be able to 'bump' into celebrities like that! You think ill be able to here!!!? No way! oH YEA, we did bump into CHloe Svegny in Bangkok once, in a mall. She was all nicely dressed. I was coming out of the mens room, when i saw her ! I didnt dare go up to her - she seemed to be going somewhere fast. And stars intimidate me, she doesnt seem like the friendly sort (shes always moodly looking!). * and more clues to RIngys whereabouts - he used the 101 - wherever that is *

Joshua Jackson bumped into me...It was reversal, actually. He called me a goof because I was talking to someone else about Dawson's Creek. I did not watch the show and I didn't know his character's name. I called him Dawson...

I was sitting at the airport and got up to use the washroom.
An Asian man was sitting in my seat, when I returned.
Sitting next to him, Rebecca Gayheart from Jawbreaker and Urban Legend.

awww dude, you dont suck! I dont meet celebs that often, and im sure you would have a better chance of meeting some in the future than i would now. I dont live in London anymore, so my celeb watchin is very much limited now. You could bump into them easily in london! theyre everywhere (well the C and D list ones )

It's all in the location...and the fact that one actually has to get out of the house...

How cruel is this - hes coming all the way here, not even 2hours away (by plane) from where i live and i cant 'meet' him! this suxs big time! *hey dudes, reminder - Oscars Live! this sunday evening! well we get it live on Monday morning at 9am! ooooooh time to pull a sickie *

i know - it pisses me off. what if he never comes back to the region again! And in Philippines they had the hugest poster of him up! it was huge-r than a building - something like 10 storeys tall at least. they must love mr mraz there as well! now i will never get my chance to make eye-contact with him from the audience - and give him that warm fuzzy feeling
