I bumped into Eden Espinosa when she was doing wicked in SF, She was waiting for the same bus as me, and when it came I sat next to her. It took me a few min's to get her to sign my BKLYN Cd I had with me.

Ok...an EXTREME stretch here. We just got back from dinner, and sitting in a booth we walked by was Slade Smiley with his sons. (He's the slimy guy from Desperate Housewives of OC). Not exactly a star, but it was very funny because we were talking about the show over dinner....not knowing he was just a few booths away!

Martha Plimpton walking to work last week
Celia Keenan-Bolger walking from work a while ago
Dan Fogler in Duane Reade a week after he won his Tony
Bob Saget on his cell phone walking down the street
Sutton Foster just walking around (day after Lincoln Ctr concert)

That's what I can remember for now.

I would di eto meet Martha Plimpton.


I live in LA.. so i see a lot of B C Dand even E celebrities.

Although! Not long ago I was at an LA bowling alley- and John Voigt walked in and sat across form us at a booth. - wearing a tux with tails... that was cool.

Last time I was in NY I ran into Kelly Ripa in the Park. My friend's Mother produced a show she was on when she was younger, so we got to talking with her - and she gave us "live" tickets that week.. where we got to see Linday Lohan.

John Kerry when he was running for President. It was just me, him and the secret service in a bicycle shop in Georgetown. My first reaction was O-M-G!

Just saw Julia Stiles on the street outside of Wedding Singer.

She gave you guys LIVE tickets? don't you have to reserve way in adavance? I remember my school tried to get Conan tickets but they were booked until August and this was in March.

I saw Hugh Panaro talking to some old ladies outside of the Odd Couple theater on his way to work. - I guess the Palace stage door was around there or something - seems kind of far away to me.

I saw Sutton Foster after seeing DRS. She was standing outside the Marquis stage door talking with friends or maybe fans?

I saw J.Gleason on my way to the DRS lotto, but I couldn't bring myself to yell after her. I hate feeling like a "fan."

Um, I'm pretty sure Kelly Ripa has some pull in getting last-minute tickets.

Celia Keenan-Bolger on the subway back in March...someone was popping their gum across the aisle from me, I looked up, and it was her.

Sutton Foster that same week...I was walking to Shubert Alley after signing into an audition, and we bumped into each other.

Both times, I've had actual conversations with them.

I would die if I ran into Joanna Gleason. True story I work in DC and I have run into Hillary Clinton three times. One time it was just me and here walking down the hall and I said ggod morning to her. She just nodded, but on other times she is truly a nice person.

Also just last week I ran into Steph D. from Ave Q. and now I love Because. Let me just say she rocks!

yes, Kelly told us to call her assistance and she go us tickets a few days later.

we got called into the show early, and had the opportunity to pick our seat... it was fun.



- I just remembered another one... when I saw Wicked- I sat right next to Hunter Foster - he had JUST left Little Shop I think he left June 6th of 2004 and I saw Wicked June 8th.

Melissa Fahn who was in the original Company of Wicked got us great seats to the show. She took us backstage and onstage where I met Laura Bell Bundy - who went on that night for Kristin.

At first I was sad that I wouldnt get to see Cheno- but I quickly got over it. I love LBB, and she was great as Glinda. - and meeting her was just as wonderful.

Mateo i'm so jealous of you. Hunter Foster? I think I would flip my lid over that. That's awesome.

I saw Rosie O'Donnell at Disney World when she taping for her show.
