I have met Jared Padaleki, he was a guest at the convention I went to a month ago.

Here are the three videos I took of him (in addition to the many photos, which I have not uploaded to anywhere online yet).

Rick Mercer (if by "met" you mean "walked by") and Chris Hadfield. Hadfield is a pretty awesome guy; we chatted for like 45 minutes after I met him at a barbeque this one time.

Yeah, I know, you'll only recognize those names if you are Canadian.

I met George Foreman in an airport. The guy is massive in real life.

I've met a bunch of pro golfers, Jesper Parnevik, Tiger, Sergio Garcia because my friends father is on the tour.

I don't think I've ever met a movie star. I did see Scarlett Johansson filming a movie on a beach in Spain in the 2007 summer and I saw Will Farrell walking around Malmo, Sweden.

not many, a once famous reciever for the Patriots. I also met some members from the band Saliva. Meh.

Recently my friends went to a gun show here in Ft. Worth, where all four of them swear they saw 'Heather' from ... well, internet porn. I don't think shes famous for anything else. None of them even talked to her, I'm not above shame (as many of you know) and would have definately said something to her.
