    I met the guy who won the Indy 500 a couple years ago when I was working Glow. I started playing with this little kid, then his Dad came over and I was like I know this guy. Not big to anybody else, but being a race car kid, I was so excited!

    Went to a David Usher concert (well, he only sang one song about a million times), for a show CBC was taping at EPCOT. They invited cm's from Canada to go because he's Canadian. The 3 of us were the only ones in the audience who even knew who he was. So, he kept talking to us during breaks and we got our pic with him....wow.

    O-Town did a show in the mall I work for when they were big...it was insane. But they were pretty cool.

    They didn't really shut down LeCellier when Andy Garcia came in. He just had the last seating of the night. There was still other tables in the resturant cause the table I was serving went and asked for his autograph. I just remembered another sort of celebrity, the little kid who was the voice of Koda in Brother Bear was in LeCellier one night. I missed all the exciting celebrities.

    OMG! He's SOOOO hot!! I was working at a hotel here in Ottawa (after Disney) and Edgefest was in town, and Moist (along with some other bands) was staying at my hotel.....I got to check David Usher out of the hotel! I got so nervous I ripped his invoice when I was trying to take it off the printer, and I had to print another one....I started sweating and apologized, and admit I was nervous, and he said "That's okay, no need to be nervous. It's just me." I of course burst into hysterical nerdy laughter.....God, I'm still embarrased to this day... :-[

    No, they would lose too much money... But I think famous people are allowed to go backstage, something like that... I'm not sure what the policy is, but Disney does what it can to cater for these people.

    in 99 or 00, can't remember exactly when, we had courtney cox and david arquette in the bar, served rob lowe who is a great bloke, prince naseem ahmed the boxer and ian beale from eastenders (wow). michael (woo hoo) jackson was down the front next to the u.k pavilion for illuminations, one of the girls in the rose & crown got to serve him as she was a big fan. Also i remember pressday, where the press got to come in and check out recent refurbs in the park, tom hanks was in the park. He was kiinda jogging by the u.k. pavilion to escape the photographers when a u.k. castmember shouted " run forrest, run ! ". tom hanks saw the funny side but the managers didn't sadly and the guy got terminated. Still, probably worth it !
