I have never talked to anyone famous, but my mom has a picture of me, my sister and my brother with someone famous. We were younger in the picture, so I don't remember it. It is a picture of us with "Gopher" from Love Boat(I think) I will have to see if I can get it from her and post it in my pictures.

Yes, I have talked to 2. They both lived in my neighborhood several years ago and I used to see them around town and in a restaurant I used to manage. They were both favorites of mine from a long time ago. Art Carney and Katherine Hepburn. The both of them were very nice and pleasant to speak to.
Mr Carney used to come into the restaurant and I would just have small talk with him and before he left I just said "Thank-You Mr. Carney and have a nice evening" Maybe it was because I never made it a big deal that he was there and treated him like a regular, he always came back.
Ms. Hepburn was rarely seen in town but I saw her a few times at the post office and I would usually make a comment "Your flower garden looks beautiful this year Ms. Hepburn. She would smile and thank me very much and tell me how much she loves her garden, an old English garden.
Now I am home sick, I miss it back there and I miss them. They were great people and some of my favorites.

yes i have talked to a few local artists in the country when i was working as a customer service representatives.
i also talked with some senators checking their credit card accounts.. hehe most of the time, their secretaries are more irritating than them!! the public official would even say sorry for howe my secretary reacted, etc.. haha
i have also talked with a news reporter. he looked so tough on tv but was really nice and accomodating and asks really nicely unlike some people you talk with.

I used to be part of the publications club back in our high school, so whenever some famous people would come by, I'd always be the first in line to handle and write an article about it. Mostly, if not all, the people I've spoken with are bands or famous local celebrities. I'll never forget that one time when this really hot local band surprisingly came and performed at our school. They're pretty famous around Southeast Asia, if I'm not mistaken, and they're called Bamboo. We didn't have permits to interview them, but after minutes of begging and hugging the bouncers' shoes, they finally let us in. Lo and behold, I was talking to Bamboo!! Haha.
xoxo,
ajhie!

I went to high school with Delta Burke, spoke with her often. Met her husband, Gerald McCranie several years later at a quail hunt (along with some other celebrities. Spent a couple of hours with The Osmonds in Atlanta. I met Alabama (and was chased by their drummer), was given roses by Conway Twitty when I was 9 months pregnant with my 2nd child.

yes about sixty some years ago I was with my hubby and kids and my mom. and I talked to this grey haired man after we had seen this mo vie at Newport beach in Ca. He was really nice and very friendly and as I was ready to leave with my husband I happen to ask him if he knew he looked just like buddy Ibsen from the Beverly hillbillies and he laughed and said,young ladyI am really flattered you watched my show, I am Buddy Ibsen, so I laughed too and felt a bit embarrassed as I had just talked to him like he was one of my friends. but he assured me that he had enjoyed just talking to me as if I were one of his friends. He was very down to earth and also very well educated not at all like the character he portrayed on the television.
