I thought it would fun to share which famous people we’ve met, if any - lol. Many years ago I met Chris Eubank after one of his fights – he was very nice and even went into a nearby restaurant to borrow a pen for me so that I could get his autograph. So who have you met…
Was you a ring girl scorps?
Michael Flatley
A lot of famous snooker players
So many. I used to work in a swanky hotel :)

Little Chris.
Bowling for Soup- lots. Patent Pending, The Dollyrots
Kvelertek
Uberbyte, Deviant UK (Industrial Bands)

Probably a bunch more industrial musicians that I met whilst battered and don't remember.
I've also met Robert Rankin (and Raygun), which I'm pretty damn happy about c:

When I was a student, I got hired as a casual worker by the company organising the WWE events in France and I got to meet a good number of WWE Superstars and Divas.
I met Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chili Peppers just before a show in Paris in 2012. He is a lovely man!
In November 2013 I went to see Queens of the Stone Age in Birmingham and waited at the backstage door. Got autographs from all the members. Very friendly guys as well. It was very nice of them to come and see their fans, as the weather was really cold outside!
I've also had the luck to meet Seether in November 2014, same way as Queens of the Stone Age: I waited outside after the show and when the band came out from the venue, they saw us (me, my man and one of my friends) and they just said "hey, we're going to the pub on the corner, wanna join?" FUCK YEAH! Amazing night!...
Worst famous person I've ever encountered? Katy Perry. What a bitch!
he's best forgotten tbh.FoxxyFB wrote:
