Star Sightings

Okay, I admit it, I am a huge dork for doing this. Especially on a Saterday afternoon. To my defense, it is yucky outside and Brad is at work. And yet I know there are still better things for me to do and that is what makes me a dork. Yesterday I heard on the news that Evil Knievel died and it reminded me of the time I worked at a phone center and was talking to someone named Robbie Knievel and I asked him if he was Evil Knievel. He told me that he was his son and I thought that was pretty cool. I also spoke with President George W. Bush's security guard and found a way to get a treadmill technician to an air force base so he could fix the Presidents treadmill before they took off overseas. That made me think about all the other encounters I have had with famous people so I thought it would be funny to document all of it. Here it goes in no particular order but just to warn you, some of them are pretty lame.

Margaret Thatcher- I met her at a grocery store and actually had a conversation with her about ice cream.
Dr. Phil Mcgraw- Brad and I had a long conversation with this dude.
Dr. Robert Rey- I met him at church in L.A while I was visiting my Brother. I was chasing my nephew Axel in the hallway and he was doing the same thing with his kids.

Steve Young-Once again, I met him at church. He had a house in Park City for a time and would come to our ward when he was in town. Once he called me a little sweety and gave me his autograph.

Jaleel White (Steve Urkel)- I met him at the grocery store by the butcher. He really wasn't that bad looking in person.

Tony Danza- I also met him at he grocery store on a couple of occasions actually. One time when I was younger and we were in line behind him and he made small talk with my mom and another time when I was there by myself once again behind him in line. (Man it seems like if you want to see someone go to the Albertson's or church in Park City).

Mitt Romney- Here it goes again, I met him at Church in Park City (my sister has baby sat for one of his grandkids too).

Air Supply- A kid I dated knew them and I met them at a beauty pageant they were playing in.

Robert Redford- I think I have met him a couple of times but one I remember is when we were hiking in Sundance and he passed us on the trail. He was polite and said hello to us.

Fabio- Brad and I saw him driving in a car next to us on the freeway in L.A.

Mrs. Fields- This one is kinda stupid but I grew up in Park City with Mrs. Fields kids and saw her on occasion before she moved. I have been in her closet and tried on her clothes from the 80's and 90's. My dad has done some architecture for her and her ex husband. Her daughter even called me the "B" word after she was eying Brad at a mutual friends wedding and found out he was my husband.

Cheech Marin- He MCed a couple of things at our high school.

Dennis Haskins- (principal Richard Belding on saved by the bell)- He was dating a friend of my parents and did an assembly at my high school. I shook his hand.

Karl Malone- He fell on me at a Jazz game once when we had front row seats.

Michael Jordan- I saw him golfing. I also saw the whole Bulls team (accept for Michael Jordan and Dennis Rodman) get off a bus at a hotel in Park City.


Julianne Hough (dancing with the stars two time winner)- My sister would probably be annoyed I put her here but she is a star now. Her father and Step mom live in my parents ward, so I have seen her at church. (once again, church. I have also seen one of Donny Osmond's Brothers at church but I don't know which one).

Hilary Swank-Brad and I passed her while walking down Rodeo Drive.


One of the Olsen Twins- We saw one of them run into a car and drive off while paparazzi was chasing her in L.A.

So there you have it. If you made it through this, now I want to hear some of the stars you have sighted!
