One time I met a celebrity and they pimp slapped me

[Shiny]

I met Louie C.K. at a Pizza Hut here in San Antonio. We talked for a bit, had a few laughs. That was about it.
I met John Travolta on chatroulette once, too. He was trolling people to gauge their reactions. He annoyed me.

I'm so jelly right now. Details! What did he talk about? And wtf...friggin' scientologist Travolta.

I've seen alot of celebrities in person, but only actually met a few. Among the gems were Beyonce and Mark Wahlberg. You would think that they're both assholes, but they're so friggin' sweet (and short), so I felt comfortable. Beyonce was barefoot and eating a chicken wing. George Romero I talked to too, but very briefly. My friend did most of the talking to him -- asking him about how he can work on his films. He said he would have to be a citizen of Canada.

The asshole was the makeup guy for Romero's films, Tom Savini. I don't feel like going into that story.

*Jhonen Vasquez signs my copy of JTHM
PG: so, is this lick safe?
Jhonen: wait what?
PG: can I lick this? n______n
Jhonen: uh.....i guess?
PG: whee!!! *dance*
Jhonen: watch out for those chains [ed note: I was wrapped in chains in a trench coat - ugh young pg you so silly]
PG: nah I can handle it *skips away and does a heel click* [I had chains holding my ankles together]
Jhonen: now you're just showing off


And that's how I freaked out a so-called edgy comic artist.
Or maybe I got him to second guess the type of persons he was attracting.

Oh trout, I just remembered that I met Jermaine Clement outside the Manchester Arndale! He walked past, I didn't recognise him, my friend jizzed her pants and demanded I go and ask him for a photograph. I asked him if he was Jermaine Jackson, to which he replied (somewhat annoyed) "Yep." I then took a photo of him and my friend and as we walked away I said "Oh bollocks. I just called Jermaine Clement Jermaine Jackson. It was nice of him not to punch me in the face."

The conclusion is that Jermaine Clement has infinite patience.

I went to school with Katherine Jenkins.

The only other pseudo-celebrity I met was at a posh christmas do last month where spent a fair portion of the night sitting next to and talking bollocks to this suave-looking bloke whom I'd never met. It was only last week that I realised I had been partying with the director of Black Mirror and a number of Doctor Who, Sherlock and Torchwood episodes.

If you watch the behind-the-scenes crap from X-Men (1) you'll see a scene involving Jubilee, except it's not the same Jubilee from the sequels.

That Jubilee went to my high school and was in my brother's grade 8 / elementary class.

*I* never talked to her (she *was* too young) but my brother said she's stuck up xD

I forgot the Lemar incident. Ok about 6 months to a year after Lemar was making his name on BBC's equivalent of X-Factor, I was drunk as smurf with some friends in Cockfosters. (yes, that is really a place name) Anyhow to continue, I went in to this chinese place there for food because drunk Steve needed food! There's this handsome black gentleman in there with this pretty girl on his arm and he's waiting on an order. The woman working the counter in the chinese take away was like "Oh do you not recognize this guy?" to me evidently she was completely gushing probably both out of her mouth and between her legs. I looked at Lemar and was like "No...should I?" to which he looked at me a little bemused like 'what rock has this dude been hiding under?' kind of expression. The Chinese lady was all like "It's Lemar! Don't you see?" I'm like "Lemar? Like the guy from whatever crap karaoke contest on tv it was?" He burst out laughing and was like "Yes" nodding his head. I paused for a moment and was like "You know my sister loves your music, she'd kill me for not getting your autograph..." I pause slightly as he picks up a pen and a piece of paper to go to write it "But then, she's a bitch and I think you're trout so I'm outta here" took my food and left him standing there speechless as I walked out the store yelling to my equally drunk as smurf friends "Hey you'll never guess which twat is in there!" Lemar had pretty good patience to not kick my arse right there and then.

I take back your gentleman card and give it to myself.

This was a good few years back I mean I was a college student still so a long time ago now. I've matured and grown up some however this trout was still funny next day. Less funny when my sister kicked me for the not getting his autograph for her.

I like the "which twat" part best. xD

I was at the Galaxy club in Dallas to see a few local bands, and wound up having a beer with Dimebag Darrell.

He was as normal to talk to as I figured, and was just there to see the local guys. I thought it was cool he'd still come out occasionally to see a show. It was almost like hanging out with an old friend.

I met Craig Bellamy at Hollywood Bowl in Cardiff Bay once a few years back. (for those of you who don't know he's a Welsh football player).
I was in the arcade with a friend and I was playing a game where you shoot targets with a gun, and they do a little animation when you hit them. I shot one target and water shot out and hit him in the chest (he was playing on the gun next to me). I turned to him, laughed and apologised and he just joked for a minute with me.

I can't remember it well because it was a few years back and I wasn't a big football fan at the time. It was only when my friend pointed out who he was that I realised it was someone famous.

Last summer I went to the Chicago Comic Con that wasn't located in Chicago just to meet the Red Letter Media guys. If you know you they are, Mike and Jay came off to me like they do in their "Half in the Bag" show. I kind of felt like I may have looked like a fool in front of Mike, but whatever, they were both really nice to me. A friend of mine was with me who actually worked where Rich (the guy who plays live action Plinkett) worked years ago. They seemed pretty impressed by that, and the stories my friend told him how even back then, he thought Rich was funny in a weird way.

I helped sell a house to george lopez.
I never actually got to meet him, but whatever right, still counts.

EDIT: I felt bad leaving it at that, so I feel I should be honest and say it wasn't the famous George Lopez from tv, it was just a guy named George Lopez.

I got to be in the audience for one of the episodes of the Jeff Dunham show, but I never got to meet him.

Having Nina Hagen throw bottles at me, is my only real violent encounter with a celebrity.
