ever meet anybody famous?


Recommended Posts

I have met the whole cast of the Daily Show, but that was because I interned there.

That is pretty cool. How did you score that gig?

I applied for this exchange program in New York at my school, and one of the places they had listed to go to was the Daily Show, so I got into the program and put the Daily Show as my top place I wanted to intern, and I got it. It was pretty rad.

i used to work at this snobby club and saw a ton of famous people while i worked there... tons of athletes from visiting sports teams, actors, musicians AND models.

i saw slash from guns and roses bring an entire club outside to the patio for a cigarette with him. also, apparently in a drunken stupor after getting off early, i told ed harris (the actor) that i heard the actor ed harris was in our club. when he told me that he was ed harris, i laughed at him. i have no recollection of this, but one of the guys i worked with was in the bathroom cleaning up while the conversation was going on. (we were standing beside each other at a urinal while we were talking)

ran into Johnny Depp a while back since he lives here in Lexington. I was smoking a cigarette outside of our local bookstore and he was just standing there too smoking. Funny thing was that I didn't recognize him until these three girls walked by and said, "Johnny Depp is SO hot" and he laughed a bit to which I turned to look at him and went, "OH" and then "Hey" and he left.
