Have you met anyone famous?

This kinda stems from the other topic i guess. Just wondering if youve met any celebrities irl?

Ive met sinbad out of brookside (hes also in corrie now, owns the chippie but i cant remember the name of his character). I met him at manchester airport about 4 years ago.

I met alex zane in august of last year when i was on a night out in newquay. I almost had a heart attack.

And i met Jimmy Carr on the 7th of march after seeing him live. he was really lovely actually.

I had dinner with the ginger bloke who used to present Guinness world records...years ago. Evidently not much of a celeb, i can't even remember his name.

Edit: oh, and i met Prince Edward briefly.

Ummm, I don't think so, but I've met tonnes of authors and artists. =D
*ahem*
Actually, I think I saw Oguri Shun (A japanese actor) at the airport once, surrounded by lots fangirls. >__>, not sure if that counts or not.
nope
Think so, but I don't really care tbh. I know some old formula one drivers, one who drove last year lives in my building, some very famous in holland singer (Marco Borsato), an Italian TV presentator, Greg Cerrone (some DJ), Safin (tennis) and probably a few others as well.
