Ever met a celebrity?

So i have done blogs about meeting NRL players of the past, now i want to know has anyone actually met a celeb, sport stars do not count. So i am talking personalities on TV, Radio, Movies and even politics. People associated with sports like journlists and commentators count.

I myself have never actually met a celeb other than sports personalities. But i want to know who people have met or come across, where there any gentle souls? Any flogs?

Only thing i can offer is stories from people i know; my old personal trainer mentioned he used to be secruity guard, he was hired as security for Tom Cruise when he was in Sydney filming Mission Impossible 2. He mentioned higher ups said to him and staff never look at Tom, never speak to him unless spoken to and bow when talked to. One day, he was doing his own thing and Tom asked him a question, something like what time was everything heading somewhere, he bowed and Tom said "Oh please, do not do that, no need to" Said he was actually quite a nice laid back guy. But also heard depends on when you got him, if he was irritated he was pure misery.

Anyway i would love to hear, something other than talking footy, form and BA leading to in fighting in the comments, this can be a nice discussion (hopefully).

  • I met Snake once at the sexpo in darling harbour when he was launching his new range of sex dolls he had designed , great man and was more that happy to take a photo with me and one of his new dolls that I had bought .

     

     

     

     

    • Fongy how that doll going? surely should be due for a rebore by now?

      Hope youve been keeping it hygenic after what happened to your last one.

      • It's a bit of a mess , I just can't control things like used to .

         

        Don't forget I'm picking you up on Saturday morning so we can go and visit Brissy at Bunnings , and don't  go pinching his measuring tape and hiding it under a pot plant in the gardening section like you did last time , they had to  shut the whole timber section down because he refused to work without it if you recall.

        • Haha..Classic. 

          • Very Clever you guys, why does it not surprise me you are being picked up on Saturday morning to see Brissy, he has had the "wood" on you for a long time.

  • I got to meet Mark Waugh, Brad Haddin, Stuart Clark and Stuart Macgill at a charity cricket match. Pretty sure that Macgill was pissed, but he was good value. Happy to talk to kids and sign autographs all day. Haddin was good too, the others were a little stand offish.

    I know they are sports stars, but that's the best I can come up with.

    • That is fair enough, at least it ain't League personalities like the other blogs so that is different

      I remember Mark Taylor being an absolute tool to a mate of mine when we were younger and he asked for an autograph 

      • I've met Mark Taylor several times. He often frequents the Bayview Hotel in Gladesville.

        Absolute gentleman everytime.

        • Oh wow, see it is just matter of when you get them i guess.

  • I met Paul Keating when he managed a band call The Ramrods in the sixties.

    I had chat with a distinguished gent in a motel car park in Canberra he was Bill Hayden the Governor General.

    I met Brian Wilson at a met and greet.

    I met Vic Patrick at my uncles funeral.

"Oh they are definately not backing him. Coby Black signing means Sanders is not the long term answer as they are not moving Strange either. 
But what didn't work? Is that something we want to invest in?"

"Oh yeah it could have started with us reaching out wanting long term, Pezet saying he wanted to play 7, Brisbane coming in and wanting him but not til 2027. He either stayed at Melbourne for 2026 or played FG at Parramatta in 2026 and we felt there…"

"Fair enough, Adam. Also, I agree with you that Walker has the footy IQ to be a stop-gap. Not sure it'll come to that though. Still, I suspect Ryles likes high-IQ halves; even at six.
One theme in his era has been raising the average IQ across the…"

"I don't think they're preferencing either right now. Renzo got an opportunity in NSW Cup last season and given our focus on finding a long-term 5/8 I think he's probably further ahead development-wise. Renzo has been extended to the end of 2028 and…"
