At warped tour 2003 I was running to get to the mosh pit when I slammed into this guy with huge green mohawk and thought nothing of it untill a few sets later when I saw Rancid on stage. Turns out the guy i ran into was Tim.
I live near Vancouver and was at a battle of the bands for a local radio station at the the Roxy, one of the judges was Chad Krouger( Nickleback) who happened to be absolutly shitfaced. I was up at the bar and about to order my drink when chad was apparently getting people to back out so they could kick some guy out. As he is walk ing by a turn around to see wft is going on and he was right behind me and ended up with both my tits in his hands. At the time I was 5'3" with a 6g septum ring, and the look that I gave him was enough for him to jump back and yell OMG I am so sorry, and then run away. I scared a "rockstar".

I saw Khofi Annan when i was in London a couple years ago, around the time of G8 in 2007. Then I met Ralph Nader in at Powershift in November. Bowling for Soup was at my school last semester, i didn't go to the show, but they made a huge scene in the cafeteria belittling the staff. Finally (I think) the guy from Killswitch Engage used toteach guitar at the local music shop, and he was a guest judge at the talent show at my old high school.
Oh yeah, if Derrick Jackson or Bill Mckibben count (they are big-time journalists) they came to my school too and i had to do Q&A forums with them for class.
Oh and Ben Kweller gave my g/f a hug and me a high 5 at a concert at Pearl Street last spring.
RobbieOC:
I ended up at a beach party in Hawaii at the same time as Kelly Slater and Gabrielle Reece (the volleyball player). Also, this was the same time Lost was first filming, and I could have sworn I saw Domonic Monaghan, but I can't confirm that.
When I was in Hong Kong, some of my friends met Jackie Chan, but I wasn't there for that, so it probably doesn't count, huh?
Caiphana:
Oh, heavens... I used to go to Disneyland a lot, and there were always "famous" people there.
I saw Nicholas Cage and his daughter getting on California Screamin. I met John Ritter about a week before his death at California Adventure, the entire cast of "Just Shoot Me." I was at my friend's dad's restaurant and sat in the booth over from Mel Gibson... at a drama festival, there was some kid from the cast of All That, whom I beat in a cold reading event... *shrugs* I live in Orange County. I forget who all I've seen. I worked in a high-end entertainment store (think those stores that build super rich people those home theatres), and several very big names came in, but I'm literally not allowed to talk about it. Oh, and our beaches always have those surfer kids with way too much money. I know a couple Moto X "stars" (Kyle Loza goes to my church... he's the guy who won best trick at those extreme olympics thingies... I forget what it's called. Meh).
I actually "know" one big "Hollywood" person (he's family), but I feel like a dirty little whore when I name drop like that. Suffice it to say he's on TV every night, and he came to my wedding.

My Dad went to High school with Patrick Swayze, apparently they were decent friends, were in the same drama class one year, and my Dad crashed at his house after a party. I've seen the yearbook. So I believe.
I've shook hands with Paul Simon and Bill Clinton on separate occasions, and said some brief words with them. Paul Simon I saw in Central Park when we first went up there a couple years ago. And I high-fived Wierd Al at the concert I went to for him after the show.
I saw Harrison Ford once, but didn't get very close.
And I was really close friends' with the son of the local Weatherman Ron Roberts back in Lubbock, and ate dinner at their house several different times. But that one isn't as cool as the others.
Edit:
Its Carlos Diaz isn't it? I bet she's talking about Carlos Diaz guys.
