Marlowe Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 If we've moved onto doing things to royalty myself and my old art student friends were on an art trip down to London. We went to Buckingham Palace, stood in a line, turned around, unzipped our trousers, and mooned the palace, and the bemused policemen who started chasing after us... Ah. Good times.

Zed Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Went to school with Rachael Hunter. Ummm thats about it really... and even that wasnt exciting as she wasnt famous, didnt seem the prettiest girl about at the time, and was a couple years older than me. I have mates that have met loads of people; one works for the BBC, so loads go through his office, but again it isnt very exciting usually either. I think he had to photograph Gillian Andeson recently, but they never went up on the BBC website. Link to post Share on other sites
doc_newstead Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 I've got a photograph of me shaking Michael Palin's hand. The lighting wasn't so good, so it's very dull, but nothing a little Photoshopping wouldn't solve. Oh, and Jeremy Clarkson. He signed Top Gear mag for me when I was about 13. I'm sure there are others but my memory is terrible. Link to post Share on other sites

exit-wounds Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 I met John Leslie at the weekend in the VIP room of Cafe De Paris. I congratulated him on his amateur movie making skills! Search google for Abi Titmuss video if you don't know what I mean. Oh, and he was utterly loaded to the eyeballs. Wish I'd won a blue peter badge from him. Girlfriend in same class as Lady Vic Hervey. She got into a fight with her and Lady Vic threw her brief case down the stairs, arf! Really, i think name dropping is sooo passe!

Gene Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 I went to a Atlanta Hawks game and saw a bunch, didn't meet them though. All in one night I saw: Usher Ludacris Sam Jackson Naomi Campbell (with Usher ) Jermaine Dupri (Lil) Bow Wow (who I wanted and still want to beat up) And then I saw Fat Joe driving on GA400! My dad met Alex Ferguson at heathrow a few years back right after Man U lost a match, my dad said "Tough weekend huh?" and Alex said "sure was." I also saw Lenox Lewis in London driving a Range Rover. And Finally, when I was younger I went to those Pro Star Soccer things, where you got to meet famous footballes after a week of training, can't remember who i met, but a few of them anyway.

Agent47 Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 You know the famous Vietnam war pic with the South Vietnamese Brigadier General holding a revolver to a VC assassin's head? The General was my grand uncle. After the war, he opened a pizza shop in Burke, VA and died two years ago. Does Master Chief count as someone famous? Link to post Share on other sites
