Oh, and my brother does animation - some of his stuff was on the Kevin Bishop show recently. He also did a music video for an artist called Akira the Don:

I might be weird, but I think they are hilarious - and defy you not to go around singing the melons song for the rest of the day.....

Dressing at the theatre. So Ive seen some of these people naked lol. Basically I actors in and out of costume. Cleaning/resetting the costumes between shows, repair work and depending on the person Im dressing getting their lunch, walking their dogs and other stuff like that. I really miss it and Im really sad I wont be going back but the hours arent Mommy friendly My Dads worked in theatres since he was 18 all over the world and hes met loooads of famous people.
Edit to add Ive also met nearly the whole cast of doctors as they are always at press nights.

 

[skairdykat]

I once had a fling with a "very" well known member of the Eastenders cast who asked me out while he was doing a promotion night at our local nightclub.

When i was younger I worked with a girl who always dreamed of being a model.. We both left the company for different reasons and she became a Page 3 model for The Sun newspaper and all the glossy magazines for many years... her name is Jo Hicks, we used to go to lunch together and live in the same town and used to be friends. She lives in London now and is a make up artist for some of the Stars.

I used to go to school with Karen Matthews, does that count?

how funny!

 

[poppy160]

I once saw Jordan, Peter Andre and Harvey in my local House of Fraiser..Jordan is even uglier in real life! That's it for me

My sister used to work in The Prince Edward Theatre in London, the one that had Mary Poppins. When she went to the premier she met Julie Andrews, amongst others, and pinched Graham Nortons arse

She also had a go at Terry Wogan because he turned up late for a performance and he didn't want to wait until the time the late-comers are meant to go in...He wasn't impressed!

 

[jools221181]

I'm apparently related somehow to this bloke
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Bruce_Ismay

I have no idea how but my mum's maiden name was Ismay so I guess it is possible

I've requested Dan Gold from London Ink and Pritchard from Dirty sanchez to be my friends on facebook. Yeah....they haven't got back to me yet.....must be busy and that.....

Do they count?

I couldn't decide whether or not to answer this, but I will. I lived with one of Sting's sons for a while and have met a lot of people that way... Also, I am friends with the Dewaele brothers from Soulwax (2 Many DJs) and a lot of very well known orchestral musicians and conductors... Some other musicians as well, but they are probably a little too obscure in this country. I went to uni and am friends with a model/designer who works for her father's Italian fashion house, Trussardi. I am so jealous of her clothes. Sigh!

Oh! And I used to live right behind Jerry Hall and around the corner from Pete Townshend. Keith Richards also lived there... and when I moved I lived near Madonna! Haha!

Also, I worked at the Royal Albert Hall and met all kinds of people. That was my favourite job by far.

Okay okay two more. I know three people on Ghost Hunters/Ghost Hunters International because they are family friends and the show started where I was from originally, and I went to gymnastics camp and was coached by Bela Karolyi and some famous gymnasts there! I was lucky!
