Ever hung out/became friends with a celebrity/semi-celeb?

[Laura]

just wondering how, who, what happened, etc. etc.

some of you might know from the picture thread, but me & my friends became friends with Dean Cain's/Superman's brother when we saw his band perform in our town earlier this month. we went out to eat with him after we talked for a bit, then a week later hung out with him at another one of his shows & stuff. he's a cool guy. after a while you kind of forget he's Dean's brother..he's so laidback & freaking hilarious lol.

we don't talk about Dean around him though of course unless he brings him up. but sometimes i have to pinch myself haha cuz this like never happens.

ohh i LOVE "walking on air". the video effects are amazing in that video..& she totally pulls a Criss Angel at the very end with the string going through her arms or whatever lol.

i didn't know she responds to fans, i figured she got too many messages for that since she's getting so big now. very cool

Well Monet Monico is like one of my best friends...she added me on Myspace and weve been chatting and emailing for a year...she mailed me autographs and wristbands and stuff! she so freaking cool :lol:

Also the girls from Everlife...they are awesome! they reply to all their email and messages on Myspace....Amber is especially awesome...she's helped me through a lot of things....and they were talking with me about setting up a concert in Lebanon...but I didnt work out

There are a lot of stars here in Lebanon that either know my father from school days (they were either in the same class or his neighbors :lol: ) or that we've met at some event.
The other day this guy (he was on a show like American Idol here) asked about me and my sister...we met him like 2 years ago...and he was excited that we were twins :lol:

i was super-close with tony, the guitarist from third eye blind, a few years ago and his wife accused us of having an affair (we absolutely were not) so we had to stop talking :-/

I used to know the singer from smash mouth, him and my dad were friends, my dad actually dated his sister for a while when he was younger. but the guy went to the restaurant my dad is manager/wine semolier [idk how to spell it, but wine expert-y person, its Birk's restaurant in Santa Clara if anyone knows of it] and they talked for a bit. it's cool.

Kerli messaged me again. she likes the pictures i make.

I touched the title character of Charlie's Great Adventure (a kids' book, I don't know how popular it is). The author attended my school.

oh wow, sorry to hear that. that really sucks. i never knew you were friends with him. how did you guys end up becoming friends?

is it the same singer that was just in a plane crash (there's two in the band right? he survived btw). that's really cool you knew him. i used to love that band back in the 90's lol. then they were on some reality show, i forget what it was called though.

[amberbeads]

we started talking through his website and i went to their concerts a lot. he's just very cool and in-touch with his fans, so we became friends, but she was paranoid and strange. they ended up divorcing eventually (though not over me, haha).
