Thread title is self explanatory.

Obviously many here have met some or all of the members of CW so besides them, how many famous people have you met and who?

Lucy Durack - played G(a)linda in Wicked, and Elle in Legally Blonde
David Harris - Fiyero in Wicked, Emmet in Legally Blonde, Chris in Miss Saigon
Rob Mills - Fiyero in Wicked, Warner in Legally Blonde, Danny Zuko in Grease

also saw Cate Blanchett while I was ice skating once but didn't go up to talk to her :/

Apparently I met The Queen once (or at least saw her), but I was four years old at the time, so I don't remember a thing.

Jeff Hardy (professional wrestler)
Neil Byrne (principal singer from Celtic Thunder)
Ryan Kelly (principal singer from Celtic Thunder)

Those are the famous people I've met so far. I hope to meet more in the future. It's very hard for someone who lives in St. Joseph, Missouri to meet a famous person. Cheesy

Let's see. All I've met are:

Órla Fallon (original and former CW member)
Máiréad Nesbitt

I think that's all I've met. I'll just have to find who I really want to meet.

not sure if this counts but I was like 2 ft. away from Paul Newman  at a sports car race at Lyme Rock, CT. back in the 80`s when he was racing. I was in the pit area and he walked right by me.
