....should be celebrities you have had sex with
donini,
in college, for a summer job, I worked as a janitor for the NPS at Wolf Trap Farm Park for the Performing Arts outside DC. Had to clean out the dressing room bathrooms, so I've handled the pubic hairs of many of the rich and famous. Does that count?

Come on....let's work on our self esteem here. By definition....anyone you have sex with immediately becomes a celebrity.
edit: Unless, of course, that person is you.

For my high school newspaper I interviewed Brownsville Station and Ted Nugent, in, oh, 1973.
Back in the '80 my then gf and I saw Dave Mason at the Palamino. We sat at the bar. After his set he walked by us and my gf kicked him.
Traffic was bad one night, and we arrived late to the Hollywood Bowl. We were going in near the artist entrance, just minutes before showtime. This black Acura SUV with blacked out windows and a small LA Phil logo on the door pulled up in front of us. I told MJ, "That's the Dude!" She walked over just as Gustavo Dudamel got out, dressed in jeans and a sweater. She waved, and he stopped and waved back.
Five minutes later he was in black tie and tails conducting Mozart. This show right here, Gil Shaham was great. Maybe it was the wine, but it's still one of the beast concerts I've seen. Right up there with Zappa and Beefheart.

Several years ago I read this story about Dustin Hoffman & his wife, and how a woman just outside their Malibu 'bungalow' had an anaphylactic reaction to a beesting, and that Dustin's wife had used her own Epi-Pen to treat her (successfully).
I was always somewhat skeptical about that story, and wondered what really happened. One morning I was at a Starbucks near Malibu, and in walks Dustin Hoffman. Asked if the story was true: Yes; and what happened afterward: never heard from the woman again.
That guy is really short.

I was in "Cisco's" in Long Beach getting lunch. Cisco's was a hamburger joint that Jesse James of Monster Garage fame had for his employees next to his shop. The place was really, really good, all fresh and organic ingredients.
Anyway, I see him coming down the sidewalk with an incredibly beautiful woman on his arm. I mean she was drop dead gorgeous with sunglasses and a scarf on. It took a minute to register even though I knew they were married. It was Sandra Bullock.
They came in and ordered and the vibe of the place totally changed. Everyone was trying to be cool, myself included.
I wanted to say something but I was paralyzed. I never expected something like that to have that effect on me .
I must repeat one thing. She was unbelievably beautiful in real life, they must have had to tone it down for the movies.
edit: Oh yeah, her breasts were way bigger in real life too!

It's always very disappointing to see a celebrity
Only if they are disappointing celebrities; but in both cases I am sure they agree.

Almost forgot, one Sunday in the '70s at the Executive Inn in Evansville, Ind. I sat at a table next to a Grand Cyclops of the KKK. What a dick.

Maybe my definition of "celebrity" is aiming too low, but I've never been more star-struck than I was in college when Royal Robbins showed up at Indian Rock a couple of times, and actually condescended to boulder with my friends and me.
One of my roommates was an extra in the Robert Redford film "The Candidate," in a scene filmed in Berkeley at the same time, and he was pretty excited to see and say hello to Redford, but I thought I had the much more exciting encounter.

WTF, Buzz talked to me (and about ten thousand of my closest phone company co-workers) at a sales motivation conference about 15 years ago.

Come on someone has to have Hasselhoff encounter.
HaHaHaHa! It's LA, baby, of course! His parents lived at my mother-in-law's
retirement home. I met them but not him. Damn!

I rode in a blacked-out mercedes packed with secret service as part of a presidential motorcade through Beijing with President Bush (41st) on assignment in China. And he complimented me to the billionaire who hired me to be there.
Photographed: Bush Sr, Jimmy Carter, Phish, Norah Jones, Jerry Seinfeld, Maroon 5, Tom Cruise, Robert Dinero, Rob Thomas solo, Matchbox 20, Walter Cronkite (probably the coolest dude I met), Tito Puente, Henry Kissinger, bunch of others.
Conrad Anker took me to dinner with a group of others in NYC after a slide show - that was pretty rad too.

CV has a pretty impressive name-dropper CV.
Reilly, I didn't directly have an encounter with Mr. Hasselhoff, but one time I rented a Ryder Truck and that is almost like Knight Rider, so that practically makes me brothers with the man.
