As many here know....my list is very long.
I'm curious. Have you met any?
Who would you most like to meet?

I've only ever met 2 celebrities, and they are both (former) NHL players:
Kirk Muller and Norm Maracle
I'm actually a distant relative of Maracle. He is the son of my grandmother's 2nd cousin, or something like that.
I once played Road Hockey with Muller. When he was starting out in the NHL, he lived on my street in the off season

If sports athletes count, I met Gordie Howe, Mario Lemieux, Rocket Richard, Pete Rose, Johnny Bench, Gary Carter, Willie Stargell, disgraced Canadian runner Ben Johnson and some others.
I met the "man in motion" Rick Hansen, Canadian Prime-Ministers Jean Chretien and John Turner.
And I was told the Shah of Iran walked right by us at either Expo 67 or 1970. But that doesn't count as a meeting.

I haven't met too many celebrities, despite living in Southern California. The other night though, I did get to talk to Vanessa Carlton after her show, she was very nice. :)
Interestingly, Dinah Jane, who was on X Factor last season, went to my school, so I guess she counts as well.
Funny story though, back when I lived in Houston when I was 11-12, I got confused for a celebrity. I walked into a CVS and some kid came up and started asking me if I was Dylan/Cole Sprouse from the then-popular programme, Suite Life of Zack and Cody. However, I didn't even notice him until my mum said something, I guess I was too focused on getting what I needed from CVS to even notice, haha. And besides, what would someone like Dylan or Cole be doing at a random CVS in suburban Texas? Who knows...

My mother and I swear that we saw Paul Gross, Constable Benton Fraser From Due South, in our local pharmacy looking at stuff on racks. I'm wondering if he lives in town or somehwere near here? ;D
