Work with them so far Gerard Butler was my favorite. Nice guy, jokes, good conversation.

How did I almost forget Gary Busey?!?
He's a pretty unforgettable man. I don't see how you would.

I met Robert Duvall when he was down here working on The Apostle. There was a party at The Camp where he was presented with the key to the city of Abbeville, which I'm sure he still holds near and dear...or threw it away.

Nice list. Carmen and Brooke? Two of my fantasy girls growing up.
Carmen was at MTV Spring Break. I was cooking out there for them with my uncles. I think I was 15 so I had to stay in a certain area. She came to get something to eat and she joked that I was too young to be there. She also said I'd never be single with food like that

I was scrolling through "interesting nights" in my head. He was before noon on a Sunday... My head wasn't in the right place. Neither is his, obviously.
When I first realized that I wasn't alone in the restaurant... It startled me. This place had tons of Western memorabilia on the walls with little description plaques... He was going from plaque to plaque with his face about 4 inches to the wall. When he finally turned to face me - I did an actual head-shaking double take. He chuckled.

You have a good list, mine is pretty strong as well.

I have no doubt.
Believe it or not... That list is heavier on folks I met in NOLA and Fort Worth than ones I met in Dallas. There's a LOT of famous folks that hang out at the Backstage Club for the FW Stock Show and Rodeo.

I don't feel like listing them all, but ones who would say they know me I will.
Morgan Freeman
Matthew Broderick and SJP
All of the Mannings
Sean Penn
Kate Winslett
All really nice people. Many more who are dicks/bitches.

Met several when I worked at Disney.
John Travolta
Robin Williams
Mick Foley
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Michael J. Fox and his family
George Lucas
Magic Johnson
Bobcat Goldthwait
Mariah Carey
Michael Jackson
I only said hi to most of them but I did talk to Mick Foley, Michael J. Fox and his wife, and Mariah Carey for a few minutes. That was really cool.
They were all very nice.
I have some friends who were in Guest Relations at the time and I've heard some really bad things about some celebrities. (Meaning they're just a-holes in person) I can't think of a name off the top of my head, I just remember most of the celebrities being women.
Christy Brinkley was very nice, so I heard from my friends.

A bunch. Mostly musicians, but several actors, too.
Danny Devito, Jerry O'Connell, Josh Lucas, Christian Bale.
Danny and Christian were super sweet.
Josh and I hit it off immediately, he's great. I think I still have his number
Jerry is AWESOME. We hung out all day and he is one of the best, funniest, most real people I've ever met.
ETA: Oh yeah, and Mike Judge. He used to be my neighbor :)

They film The Walking Dead where I live and they were out filming season three less than a mile from my house all summer long. I got out, took in the sights and sounds of the filming, and found out a few things about the cast. The one name that kept popping up over and over was Laurie Holden as Andrea. Form what I gathered she wasn't the nicest person on set. While a good majority of the cast and crew would gratefully take pictures and sign autographs, Laurie Holden would often refuse to do so. Her reasoning? If she did it for one person she'd have to do it for everybody.
Look…I get you're a person and you like your privacy, but when you're saying that while your co-stars are signing autographs and taking pictures with fans to the right and left of you, you kind of come off looking like a bitch. Anyways…I met Andrew Lincoln and Norman Reedus while they were filming re-shoots here in town last Friday. Nice guys. Very personable and down to earth.

You would have to put it in context, but I'm sure Brangelina, Hurley, Luke Wilson, McDonough... perhaps Leto and Ben Victor/Trejo would remember me if asked.
ETA:
I wouldn't put money on Busey remembering anything even though we talked for over half an hour just me and him.

If you asked of them do you know(insert my real name)they would say yes.

My name preceded or followed by "that bartender"... over 60/40. Throw in an event detail and 95% or better chance.
Most of the celebrities that would know me by name are musicians or athletes.

Eaten dinner with Morgan Freeman twice at his restaurant in a party of 6 both times. Cooked for Broderick and SJP twice and hung out at a pool with their kids and mine. Really, really nice people. Totally normal family.

It's weird how there's "totally normal" celebs and "totally out there" celebs... and not much grey area FME.

I'm starting to think you're some bisexual vampire from the Renaissance or something.
