Have you ever met any celebrities? Any interesting stories?

I was living in Asbury Park New Jersey, & my brother was visiting with me & my girlfriend at the time. My girlfriend "Jewelz" came home from work after hearing the call for extras for a Spike Lee Movie (Malcolm X) on the radio. She'd written down the address and we were off. Hauling ass I get the three of there in one piece as well as in record time. We get to the school where the filming is taking place and my brother & I make it in but they have enough women so Jewelz was unable to participate, a fact I wasn't made aware of until we were done. Because they were running behind schedule & shooting was about to begin, my brother and I were rushed through to wardrobe yet due to being behind schedule, we were unable to shave, so we were the only two to have hair on our faces ... Hours later, after filming for the day had wrapped, Spike Lee & Denzel Washington were personally shaking the hands of each and every extra... My Brother & I were standing there in AWE... mind you everyone had a resume or a business cards & were trying to plead their individual cases. Finally they make their way to us and are shaking my and my brothers hand & we had NOTHING to say Yet I KNOW to this DAY Spike & Denzel will remember us because Denzel had jokes... We were in awe and had nothing to say, nothing to pitch, no resumes, nothing witty to say, just standing there like deers caught in the headlights of an on coming vehicle ... So we're standing there in silence shaking their hands & Denzel says "Who are you guys the Silent Twins?" We all laugh and I break my Silence and stated, "I'm just glad to be here & happier to meet you!" My Brother is co-signing as I'm panning my eyes back & forth between the two so they knew the "you" was a plural one) WHAT WHAT I met two people I wanted to meet from my list of people "I'd like to meet!!!" a final note:: My clutch burns out on the way home and my brother & I end up pushing the vehicle up the road to an exit after the last toll before Asbury Park, WTF???
