ULTIMATE CELEBRITY SIGHTING-----Paul McCartney!!!!

Yesterday a friend and I were at Ameoba Records in Hollywood and as we walked across the street to the Arclight Theaters...none other than Sir Paul and Heather Mills walked passed up and headed towards the parking garage.

That's the most starstruck I've ever been (well other than being front row at a Prince show in '97). We kind of follwed them and they ended up in front of us as we left the parking garage...as they sped out in a new dark blue corvette!!!!

Anyone else have a MASSIVE MEGASTAR sighting?

In 1993-ish... I saw Michael Jackson at Disneyland. He was being let into all the rides by the 'secret' entrance... but he could not escape the crowd. Everywhere he went, there was a crowd...

He was wearing a black fedora hat and his red blazer jacket with the trademark black band around the sleeve.

Even though we saw him from a great distance, and only at a glance... it was quite exciting!

Oh - and in the late 80's, I sat near John Travolta and his wife at a Santana concert. He was cool.

About 7 years ago I was going into a shopping area in the Minneapolis suburbs and saw...

Hey, for anyone in Minnesota who is a football fan, he certainly qualifies as an ultimate celebrity.

Here are some "minor" celebrity sightings/meetings:

I saw the guy that plays "Buzz" on Guiding Light at the movies this summer in Cedar Grove, N.J. Was going to see "Alien vs Predator". He came in with his kids. I shook his hand, said a quick "hello" and "I admire your work". He smiled nervously - he seemed surprised (and a little uncomfortable) that this black guy knew him from "Guiding Light". I've always read that he was leery of the spotlight, so to speak. He stayed for the movie, too.

Met Frankie Faison (the landlord in "Coming to America", now on "The Wire") in Montclair, N.J. in a print shop. He was trying to get copies of a screenplay. Since I happened to be doing the same thing, we had a nice conversation. I wished him luck - very cool guy.

A few years ago, in the Village, Taye Diggs almost collided with me. People were calling his name and he seemingly didn't want to be noticed. He was walking so fast, he almost knocked me over. He sort of half-smiled an apology.

Saw Yogi Berra last week in Montclair, N.J. Cool guy.

The coolest celebrity I ever met, though, was the guy who draws/writes the comicstrip, "Funky Winkerbean". He spoke at my high school's 10th grade art class.

Hey, you should have told him :
"I saw your willie!"
or

Very cool! Lucky you. I saw Willem Defoe and Sylvester Stallone coming out of a hotel during the Toronto film festival. I got a very good look at both of them. Both are much shorter than I would've thought. Probably no taller than 5'7".

I once saw Prince at a movie theatre, and he was wearing a metallic gold jumpsuit with matching cape.

He was seeing Woody Allen's Shadows & Fog, by the way.

but i didn't have the nerve.
