I know maybe 5 or 6 of these celebs?

Back when I was in college, Penn and Teller were performing in the same city as my campus. It just happened to fall on Parents Weekend, so the school bought a block of tickets for a discount, and since I used to do stage magic, my family and I got tickets and went. It was a great show, but afterwards, outside the theater, Penn was just hanging out. My dad and I walk over and start talking. He was very friendly, and supportive when I mentioned being an amateur magician himself. After a few minutes, we wrap up and he goes to go back in. Except when he tries the door, its locked. He rattles it a few times, and then you hear this little voice from off to the side as my mother yells out, "Use magic!" This explains my sense of humor.

Am I getting old? I don't know at least half of these people 😕

I have had incredible luck as a young art student visiting NYC.....rubbed shoulders with Iggy Pop (!) my first trip to NYC (1984)...bought super pale foundation in a tiny makeup shop for goth punks/theatricals in Soho. My second trip, Spring of 85, I was hanging out in Washington square park with a friend (both of us glam/punks at the time) and we were gifted a six pack of expensive beer by a young black man who had paint splattered clothes and short dreadlocks...he introduced himself as Jean Michelle (!basquiat!!) so sweet and soft spoken, he stayed and chatted with us for about 20 minutes after we told him we were art students on a lark to the city....It wasn't until we got back to school that we heard he was one of the hottest painters in the world at that time. I think of those two encounters often...so sad that JMB left this world not long after...he was an incredible intuitive artist

I met Jackie Chan on the set for Shanghai Noon, filming the train stunt in Wayne Alberta. I was 13 and I remember being almost the same height. I was really excited but I could only say "hi". 5 years later in Drumheller Alberta again, and I'm drinking in the bar with my cousin. We decide as a family that we need groceries from the IGA next door to our hotel (not an IGA anymore but still a grocery store). We are walking through the store and Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are grocery shopping. My cousin was so drunk he just kept telling Angelina how pretty he thought she was and I just laughed at him. They were there visiting while filming a movie in Edmonton. Unfortunately these are pre-smartphone times so no pics, only the memories. I had a physical photo of me with Jackie Chan at one point but idk where I've put that album.

Who? Are these people?

Who are these people?!

My dad use to be a concert promoter in the early 90's in Brazil. Once he brought The Exploited - an English punk band - and we've gone to a Chinese mafia restaurant and they made quite a mess on a massive food battle between them and I was laughing AF meanwhile everyone was just perplex with all that.

When my husband was a kid, he was playing ball with a friend near Del Mar beach. Desi Arnaz had a house in the area. The ball landed in Desi's back yard. Husband went to the door and Dezi was a grump about it (I get that, it's annoying.) But he seemed very miserable. He was wearing a silk robe and was smoking like a chimney. There were pictures all over the walls (despite the fact that he was married to someone else. ) He never got over his divorce with Lucy. I think I read that he was abusive. So sad.

My family always regales the day they bumped into Bill Paxton on the day of my Aunt's wedding lol he was very nice

Kenny Rogers is too big for his pants. "big head guy. don't you know who i am?"
