I met 30 Seconds To Mars a while back and thought they were nice enough - especially Jared Leto, which came as a surprise. I've met several other rock bands who have all been nice enough.
Oh and I met Keith Duffy years ago (not exactly A-list, I'm not so lucky) and he was very friendly and happy to pose for a photo.
I met Liam Gallagher way back in 96' when Oasis had hit the big time, he was really nice and not at all like his supposed loutish persona. I was 13 years old at the time and he chatted to me and my mum in Manchester airport and signed an autograph for me. He did stink of whiskey but he was well nice!!
I met Frankie Cocozza in a club whilst he was still on XF. He bumped into my friend and offered to by her a drink, we got pictures and then he sat with us for a while.[/QUOTE
Oh yes almost forgot Stephen Gerrard pulled his car up outside my neighbours, we all came out and he did an autograph for us, seemed quiet but friendly enough. I've always imagined him to be down to earth?
Tommy Cannon from Cannon&Ball. Was coming out a multistorey in Blackpool and gave me his ticket as he had paid for it then had to move somewhere else, bless!
My brother met Noel and Liam Gallagher a few times as he followed Oasis before the became a super group and he would hang around at gigs after they had finished playing. He said they were both quite down to earth in those days and Noel had a funny sense of humour.
I met Kevin Keegan when we were in Spain on our holidays when I was about 12, he posed for pictures and chatted to my Uncle for ages
Ive met quite a few Star Trek and Star Wars actors.
Sir Patrick Stewart-lovely.
Jonathan Frakes-very nice, friendly and chatty
Nana Vistor-lovely, made a special effort to get into a photo with us. She was beind a long row of tables and had to go a long way to walk around them all. She made sure we got a good photo and insisted we take more if needed.
Avery brooks-seemed ok, didnt like picture being taken and wouldnt look anyone in the face or at camera.
Ray Park-the most wonderful person ive ever met. In fact he was so nice im in love with him
Weve met him a few times and he remembers us.
I watch him when interacting with people and he acts like theyre the first person he's met that day and spends ages with him. So nice.
Warwick Davis-great guy
Jay Laga'aia-lovely, very happy to chat for ages.
Anthony Daniels-was ok
Jeremy Bulloch-He came up to us and started chatting away about family etc. Nice man.
Both of these werent rude, just didnt really acknowledge us. But did sign an autograph.
David Prowse-
Kenny Baker-
A few years ago we met Robert Pattison, He was nice but a bit shy/embarrased. He was at a signing event where there were lots of 'celebs' however noone was going to him.
I took pity on him, just amazing that a short while later Twilight was released. Bet he doesnt have that problem anymore
We also have Joanna Lumley, Annette Crosbie, Steve Ovett living near me here. And Anne Robinson regularly visits her friend who lives in a little village out in the sticks. She opens fetes, takes part in backing and stalls etc, and is also lovely apparently.
So it would seem that basically they are just like you and I!
It's amusing that Cilla and Lulu appear to be universally despised. Cilla has always come off as a phony to me and I've always disliked Lula, who always seems to be far too pleased with herself while looking down her nose at everyone/everything else.
Apparently Cilla's Scouse accent is put on and she speaks with a posh accent off stage.
My mum lived in Liverpool for a few years when younger and she always said when we'd watch Blind Date and Surprise Suprise years ago that she found Cilla really fake and that her accent was ridiculous and over exagerated. It sounds like someone doing a bad impersenation of a scouse accent imo.
wow some people have meet a lot of celebrity’s, so many it's like their lying about meeting all of them!!
Fair point, mate, but I can assure you I've really met those I said I had and I hope to meet Tomas Ledin again soon when I see him live! He's such a lovely, sweet person.

I've heard a lot about her not being very nice.
Oh, how I envy you for this. I tip my hat to you.

I put it down the fact he had just wrestled an hour before hand.
Met chris jericho as a wrestler and when in fozzy (his band) a few times and is nice enough.
Seen Jo whiley and nick from the apprentice / countdown in my local shop and they seem nice enough too
So it would seem that basically they are just like you and I!

I've heard Cilla being well spoken in a documentary that was on years ago. She's definitely well spoken when not on a TV show.

Uh oh, superfan has arrived.
What?
Have you met her? Just curious
