I slept in Lindsay Lohan's house... didn't actually meet her, but I did meet Dina who was actually supremely nice to me. I rode a ski lift with the boyfriend of the hot chick from All That... I also got to see her in a bikini in the hot tub. 11 year old me was quite pleased. I met Kevin Connolly in a bar, told him how much I loved Entourage (this was back when it was good)... then my friend tried to buy him a shot of tequila... IN HIS OWN BAR. And not even good tequila, but the shitty rack tequila.
Weirdly enough, my one time in LA, the only famous person I saw was George Lopez... to which I just scoffed and moved along to get some lunch.

Living in Australia there isn't as many opportunities but I have had a couple: Saw Geoffrey Rush at an IMAX screening of Dunkirk and saw Mia Wasikowska outside a bar.

I once yelled out “Oh shit, that’s Steph Curry” at Disneyland during the gathering for the fireworks. He looked back at me, but that was it. I didn’t wanna bug him since he was with his family.
I seen Travis Baker at Disneyland too, but again, he was with his family so I’m sure he didn’t want to be bugged (although people were lining up to take pictures with him).

Never met a Hollywood celeb, but my clueless dad met Ben Affleck years ago at Madrid. He thought Affleck was the son of a friend of his, so he approached the guy and Ben was very friendly and polite. He just found out he mistook him minutes after when my older sister came to him and said "dad, why were you shaking hands and kissing Ben Affleck on the cheek?"

Have met quite a lot at TIFF over the years and the nicest ones I've encountered were Jack O'Connell (by far the sweetest guy ever), Chris Evans, Tom Hardy, Sebastian Stan, Shia Labeouf, Jessica Chastain, Michael Fassbender, Matthias Schoenaerts, Ben Mendelsohn, Joel Edgerton, Charlie Hunnam, Tom Hiddleston, Jamie Dornan, Nicole Kidman, Brad Pitt, Christian Bale, Daniel Radcliffe, Dev Patel and George MacKay. The majority I've met are pretty nice but these encounters stood out to me since they consisted of more than just a quick hello. Holy shit.

I've met Lil' Kim and her grandma (both are absolute sweethearts). Also, not sure if it counts, but Jennifer Aniston and I have the same facialist.

Met one of Johnny Depp's co-stars, who will go unnamed; didn't know who she was at the time, and asked for her phone number for the store raffle. She gave it but drew a heart on the paper, which had me confused later. I wasn't trying to hit on her.

Lived next door to Tom Cruise for a long time. He and his Scientology friends had the wildest parties. One time I asked to come over and shoot the shit but he said his parties were only for operating thetans. When I would bump into him taking out the trash or getting his morning paper I would yell "hey Maverick, how's Rain Man!" which he thought was hilarious.
