Have any famous people worked at Walt Disney World or Disneyland?? If so, do you know what they did?

I know Wayne Brady did.

Steve Martin worked there (I think he was a skipper for the Jungle Cruise, except this might have been at Disneyland) and there were a few others.
One other (not really a celebrity) would be the kid who got caned in Singapore for vandalism, he was a Jungle Cruise skipper.

I used to work with Kevin Richardson (Backstreet Boys) in the Studios Entertainment department. In interviews he mentions that he was Prince Eric in the Little Mermaid show but you never hear him talking about his time spent performing at MuppetVision 3D as Sweetums, which is where I knew him.

I remember when he was going to go to Europe with this new band he had auditioned for. I also remember thinking "Backstreet Boys, that'll never go anywhere..." Shows what I know!:rolleyes:

Oh, yeah! I almost forgot! Former Miss America, Leanza Cornett also worked in Studios Entertainment. She sang as Ariel in the Little Mermaid show. Then, she was on Entertainment Tonight. I don't know if she is still on there. I didn't know her, but she was there the same time I was. I was too tall to work at Mermaid. :(

he's nice, but he has the "my poopoo doesn't stink" attitude. Nice guy w/ an overinflated ego (he acts like an A-list celeb, while he's barely B-list).

There's a few stories... but none I can mention... I did do Spectro with him though. This was as he was quitting, he started getting major gigs and his ego started inflating. He quit Disney and left for Cali... and was an unemployed living off SAG residuals for the longest time

btw- where in grosse pointe are you from.. I've asked this before, and you never answer.. lol

don't know how true this is but I once heard that Christina Aguilera worked in Toon Town in foods and she got terminated like a couple weeks after. But like I said, I don't know how true that is. I just heard it through the grapevine and we all know how that can get out of hand.

Steve Martin worked in the Magic shop at Disenyland during the early years.
A presidential aide to Nixon was a skipper.
And Maynard at Disneyland is technically a celebrity to Disney fans.
