Bumping into famous folk

I have been around...

I bumped into Bill Clinton after his presidency.
Ricky Martin (Singer)
Bill Murray...Murrey? (Actor)
John Candy (Actor)
The black dude from the movie "From dusk till dawn" (Actor)
I walked into a music video production of "The Moffits" where they were running down the street while girls chased them and they didn't stop filming so maybe I am in that video. (Will check later)
I went to my favourite CD/music store and security had everyone blocked outside but I walked in because they must have thought I worked there and I bumped into Rob Zombie the heavy Metal artist/movie director.

And now the last one...
The one that hurts.
I am good with actors names when I see them on TV or in movies but I failed this one.
My girl went into an antique store but I waited outside.
He comes walking up the street and I say...
"Hey you're that guy!"
He says...
"Who's that then?"
I didn't know 😔
My girl walks out of the antique shop and I say...
"Hey I just met...🤔..."
I looked in his direction and he was gone.
We walked to the corner and looked and he was gone.
It was David Patrick Kelley.
Not a huge actor...
He was in 48 hours with Nick Nolty and Eddie Murphy.
K-pax with Kevin Spacey.
The Longest yard with Adam Sandler and Burt Reynolds.
Many other movies.

I regret that day 😔

Who have you bumped into?

Is there a statute of limitations, social distancing measure, and how many degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon?

I shook hands with the active Ministerpräsidenten

Erwin Teufel (Baden-Württemberg, Hanover-Messe)
Stanislaw Tillich (Sachsen, Jubilee of the Helmholtz Zentrum Rossendorf)

Opera singer Dame Kiri Te Kanawa in Notting Hill, London

I met Woody Strode, who was in the film The Professionals and played the part of the Ethiopian King in The Ten Commandments. I was twelve and my mother used to visit his wife who attended our church.

I met Richie Havens at a very small, slightly publicized concert at the university for which I worked. I had no idea who he was but when I told my husband at the time that I had free tickets, we dropped whatever was planned for that night and coerced a babysitter. There were less than twenty people there so I actually got to meet and talk to him.

I stumbled into the filming of The Legend of Bagger Vance and saw Matt Damon but had to climb a light post to get a photo because of the crowd of teenage girls who had swarmed around him.

We bumped into the filming of "das Boot" in 1980 at Lake Constance.

Vivienne Westwood. She was a neighbour of a client I was visiting and popped over to bring him some flowers. (She had a black eye at the time having been recently mugged at the underground station).

I served Frank Zappa petrol. His minder was driving the beat up old car he favoured. They came in through the out entrance but I didn't ask if that was simply about Americans driving in England! Maybe that was why the car was dented??

The President of Switzerland. (No bodyguards, no black helicopters).

Helmut Kohl (walking along the Rhine, no bodyguards, no black helicopters).

I went to Uni near Hampstead and the heath was a good place to spot minor celebrities.
John Mills
Janet Street-Porter
Esther Ransom
The first mate from "The Onedin Line"

Used to drink in the same pub as Steve Davis.
And I've met Frank Bruno a few times and Princess Anne handed me my degree.

I shook hands with Magnus Carlsen, Vitaly Ivanchuk and Wesley So.
