Quite a few true celebs, and for the most part I am un impressed with their status. When I lived in LA, I had my own psuedoceleb status among celebs in the day just because of how much I was involved in the rising trendy technology area. i also owned my own place near the beach which made it a prime party spot. I was the basically a B list celeb that was generally accepted in the company of A listers and sought out as a friend for C and D list celebs. I am still friends with a number of celebs and celebs well past their time like me, but I am unimpressed with the title celebrity.
The only celeb I was ever impressed with as a celeb was Jack. We saw each other enough over a short period of time that he actually remembered my name without being reminded. Of course I have Jack moment that few guys can compare with. I was waiting to pick up my girlfriend from work one night at Pink's when He came in after a Laker's game with some friends (other celebs). He noticed me and we started talking then him all noticed the waitress who bent over. I found myself in the envious position of having Jack, Warren Beatty and Dennis Hopper all checking out my girlfriend and making wouldn't I like to comments... Shannon was a forgettable lay, but knowing that I got to sleep with something the three of them were oggling more than I did the first time I saw her really sticks in your mind. I doubt Jack can remember my name even if he would remember what I did, but that is okay, I remember.
As far as status goes though, I am more impressed with the writers I know personally who have some name recognition rather than actual fame or celebrity status. We all have things in common and can connect which is something most "celebs" can't do.

i know someone who used to be a celebrity, she is currently working as our manager now. she is still very beautiful and a very charming lady. she's got her family now and her cute daughter.
our training manager also is a member of a famous band here in the country. hehe we would always joke about it and ask for his autograph. :)
