[GalacticPetey]

Have you met anyone famous? I don't know if this goes here, or Entertainment and Media. Buy anyway, I've met:

Nils Lofgren
Garry Tallent
Jake Clemons

 

[Garlic Man]

Define 'met'

 

[Scarecrow von Steuben]

I didn't actually talk to any of them, but I've been in the same room as Eric Clapton, Rush, and Arcade Fire.

 

[Dr. Javelin]

I've seen in-person Paul Kagame.

 

[yoshidude99]

Prince Charles.

 

[Nabber]

Absolutely no one. Beyonce's saxophone player or something visited the band at our school, but that's pretty much it.

 

[Master Crash]

Yeah, I think this might be better suited for the entertainment board.

Anyway, I think I've met someone famous before, but I can't recall who.

 

[Uniju]

It was me.

 

[EctoBiologist]

Real life wise.... none.

I haven't met someone famous.

 

[Ernest Fine]

Mark Webber (Formula 1 driver), Jake Humphrey (BBC Formula 1 presenter) (anyone noticing a theme here?), Floella Benjamin (British actress, television presenter etc.) and Peter Bone (my town's MP).

I met a sexy Spanish singer (female) who's name I don't know at the break of recording a video-clip at the local mill. Also sat in her Lambogini. Nice car.

If you mean "met" as in seen in person, then:

"Weird Al" Yankovic (and his band)
Billy Ray Cyrus
Brandon Mull (author of Fablehaven books)
Dee Bradley Baker (Guy who's done a lot of dabbling in voice acting, took a picture with me at Disney during Star Wars weekends)
Dave Gahan, Martin Gore, and Andy Fletcher of Depeche Mode
Jack Sigler Jr. from the band Mercy (one-hit wonder for the song "Love (Can Make You Happy)")
Tom Birdseye (author)

I'm probably missing a few I can't think of off the top of my head. I know I met some other authors in 2nd grade besides Tom Birdseye but don't remember their names.
