Celebrities You or Someone You Know Have Met

DMC-12

It's HarmonioUS, NOT HarmoniYOU.
*in no real order here*

-Jenny Jones (I interviewed to be one of her producers. Dont ask! :lol: :o ) [Fun Fact... Jenny Jones and Jerry Springer shared the same production facilities, green rooms... etc.. here in Chicago... so I got to meet him to... lol]

-Met with Oprah in the hallways of Harpo Studios, while I was at a meeting there in the late 90's for something totaly Oprah unrelated. lol. Her body guards were big, mean, and could kill you with a stare...lol thats all I remember.

-Lots of various Chicago radio & TV folks (and national news anchors as well)... as that was the line of work I was in.

-Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins... I actually bumped into him at the Virgin Mega Store in Chicago a few years ago.

-Danny Bonaduce, while he had his radio show here in Chicago.

-Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern on the set of Home Alone 2, I was a kid extra in the exterior shots of Duncans Toy Chest (shot on LaSalle St. here in Chicago). I think my father still has (home)video of this somewhere, as he was on set with me. *shrug*

-Various producers of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, as my car was parked in the parking garage, that they were shooting in all last summer. [my office was right accross the street]

(that's him talking to my sister...he was really friendly, but
looked really old and smelled awful of alcohol! :lol:)
I really don't get excited over celebrities, but it was pretty cool to watch
them filming the movie.
The entire region went CRAZY while film crews were here.
It was insane.

I'm too lazy at the moment to list the rest.

*Swoons* Did he really look old? He looks so good for his age on TV & pics.

I have met a few political people at events. Most notable George W. Bush, I got to shake his hand at an event, very briefly though. Pretty cool because I later got a personalized letter from him signed on White House stationery.
Others were a few members of senate and congress.
