You and Famous People?  

Let's see..... when I was a kid I wrote to all the teen idols of the time, the Bay City Rollers, David Cassidy, etc. Never got a response.

I've seen famous people before. I used to work at a department store in downtown Minneapolis, so it wasn't unusual to see a famous person stroll through. The ones I can remember offhand are Julie Andrews and Donny Osmond. It was really funny, I was outside smoking and this guy with a tour jacket for "Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat" walked by. I was admiring his umm... nice tight backside, when he turned to the side and I realized it was Donny Osmond. I darn near died. He had such a squeaky clean image that it felt somewhat illegal to check out his butt.

I once had the mayor of Saint Paul take a break in the back room of another store I worked in.

I offered some old guy coffee while I was camping who turned out to be Timothy Leary. I had no idea at the time lololol

I've got several of my favorite authors as Facebook friends and have chatted and played games with some of them.

Hello, I have never written to anyone famous but I have met Michael E. Knight the soap opera actor who had played Tad Martin for years.He was in my city and was at the mall. There was a long line to meet him so my sister and I stood in line after his talk to his fans. He hugged me and kissed my on top of my head. He even blew a kiss to my grandmother and waved at her while she was sitting out in the crowd. she was so pleased and she had to brag to her sister that Michael E. Knight did that.

What the blazes has this got to do with Thinker? Surely it should be somewhere like People, or pop culture.

As to the question, I spent much of my adult life as a professional performer, and as a result have met and on occasions spent considerable time with numerous people famous in their field, including Tom Paxton, Colin Hay, John Denver, and a large number of Australian icons. So what? They are just people.

i dont think a famous personality will ever come to my village kind of place. they are best in the towns and urban place like the metros.
when i went to such town , i saw many famous personalities especailly the cricket personalities.
cricket is a craze here in my country and watching those cricket kings walking and playing in front me felt very lucky. never got a chance to talk to them, but even seeing them was abig thing for me.

The best I have is taking a picture with Tony Danza who is an actor, talk show host, had a nightclub act. He is famous for Taxi, Who's the Boss.

When I was a kid I wrote to Tommy Pruett. I had a hugh crush on him. He was on that show Life Goes On. Don't ask, lol. He wasn't even that famous, you would have thought I would have got an autograph picture or something. Nothing! So not fair. I use twitter now, and have only got one response from a somewhat famous person.
