Richard and Lea from BB7. Won comp to go in limo with them to opening of celebrity Big Brother Hijack in January. Very friendly and chatty
Dermot O'Leary - met a few times and always talks to his fans
Louis Walsh and Danni Minogue came to speak to us when won VIP tkts to X Factor last yr. Nice of them to do that
Ben Shepherd at a MIchael Buble Magic radio event was friendly but his wife was not. She didn't want us to have photo taken with him. Ben happily posed for photo with us.
I've met loads of others who have all been friendly.”
Do you want to give me some tips on how to win competitions?
Mine aren't very exciting!
It seems I had a similar encounter with
Jimmy Carr as most other people on here who've met him - met him in town before a gig. He was lovely and unexpectedly very charming in person!
David Walliams - around the same time, I think he was in town for the Jimmy Carr gig! He was civil and all but I just found him a bit odd. Not sure why.
Ronan Keating - my neighbour when I was younger. Thought he was a bit of an arse. Very up himself. Although maybe he's matured - it's a really long time ago I knew him.
Samantha Mumba - remember her? She was out in a pub in my area and seemed annoyed at the attention she was getting. Mind you, anyone who's not local will get a few looks, never mind if she used to be famous! She seemed a bit... let's say aloof.
And for a z-lister, if anyone's ever heard of the Murderdolls frontman
Wednesday 13, I met him after a gig. Very quiet but a nice chap.
