Most famous person you have ever met?



Jordan Pickford, lived next door to his brother.
Earl Spencer at Althorpe asked where I was from and had I enjoyed the day.
Kevin Ball, kids went to school together.
Prince Naseem Hamed at a Billy Hardy fight.
 
Wife got drunk with Paul Weller once. This was while I was upstairs in a hotel room with the kids and knew nothing about it. She just went out for a fag and didn’t come back for a few hours.
 
No one.


I'd likely meet a famous person and not know who they were.



Daughter has pictures of her with Lemmy and has met Olly Murs .


Oh....I was in the same place as Kim Kardashian and whoever her husband is, but I never saw them.

I met Rik Mayall once in W H Smith's.
Not sure if that counts as it was a book signing, but we chatted for a minute or so and I got a photo of us together.

Most famous person I've met not at a pre-arranged thing was Jim Moir aka Vic Reeves in Barter Books in Alnwick. He was just browsing through the old hardbacks. Said hello and exchanged pleasantries. Didn't ask for a photo owt, didn't seem right when he was just minding his own business

This was about 2am in the morning.

Apparently, Gazza offered him £50 to stick around for a few hours so he could ferry them to training at 10am.

He declined the offer.

(Aye, I’m not sure how much I believe it too..)
