Default Have you ever met/seen a celebrity up close?

Anyone?

I've seen Wayne Sleep in Paddington and tennis players at tennis tournaments, including one walking outside some of the courts. I've also met Roberto from BB6

Best story wins a special prize.

I've had a curry with Neve Campbell in Birmingham, and I had dinner with Val Kilmer in London, as one of my brothers best friends is an English actor


Not me, personally. I was just a hanger on, but I think I saw part of my arm in the local Birmingham paper "the evening mail". Val Kilmer is ****ing nuts. He insisted his driver took us home, and he walked about 10 miles across London at about 1am. He was ****ed out of his tree.

Bet I met the most famous celeb. Princess Diana.

She was doing a grip and grin at Nottingham playhouse in 1989. I was one of the people she shook hands with. She was very tall and very beautiful.

I met Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson. They came and shook my hand. Owen was getting pissed off with the people who were taking pics with their phone!

I've met Toyah Battersby, Andy Sugden, Bill Tarmy (legend) and various other Corrie/ Emmerdale people out in Manchester. I work in recruitment and a few of them have worked for me over the years too - Catherine Tyldesley, Rob James Collier and Rebecca Atkinson (Shameless).

My dad used to be a Recreation Officer for BT and he used to organise a family fun day every year and they always had Its a Knockout with Stuart Hall - eek... He also used to work with Paul McGuigan (original Oasis Bassist)....

My brother is very good friends with Chesney Hawkes and Rob Green too....

I worked in a pub in London that was across the way from the LWT TV studios and I served Ant and Dec, Suggs and Nick Hancock. Ant and Dec left their pints and walked out in a strop when my boss refused to turn on some soccer match for them

I met Stephen Mulhern and had a picture with him outside Wembley Arena for the BGT Tour in 2011. And I've met Chico twice.

I met Jason Orange on a bench in the middle of Kensington High Street and had a five minute conversation with him, got a picture and he gave me a hug and a kiss. I havn't shut up about it since but anyways.

I met Olly Murs at an album signing the other week, gave him a card for him and Caroline, got called perfect and told him to smelt nice, as you do.

I met Josie off BB as well, she was proper lovely to us, she just came straight up to me and was like 'Do you have a light love?', I couldn't stop calling her Jos as well for like the 10 minutes I was talking to her.

Met James Phelps(Fred Weasley) when him and his brother came to my uni, told him he was a fit and got a pic.

I've shook all of Take That's hands at their concerts as well and nearly met Howard but he just kept walking, fecker hah.

Also seen Angela Griffin and her husband on the tube, Princess Beatrice in TopShop in Oxford Street, Caroline and Olly, Gary ,Kelly, Louis and Tulisa at X Factor, Jedward on my flight home from London, this football commentator guy Niall Quinn also on my flight home from London(another one), Artem off Strictly going in the stage door of Kara Tointon's play(my friend was getting her camera back from the night before when she lost it). Also seen Ally McCoist, Teddy Sheringham, Paul Gascoigne and Alan Sherear all various times in Portugal.

And then various people at concerts and such.

The most famous people I've met would have to be the Queen, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. Luckily, none of them recognised me.
