Come on, I know that a lot of us have seen, met, or talked to someone famous at least once in their lives. 😱

What famous people have you seen? Which famous people did you think you saw? Did you ever see someone, and wondered if they were a famous person that they kind of looked like?
 
I got an email from Noam Chomsky. He liked what I wrote! Or maybe he was just trying to be nice! :meh:

Note, I emailed him first. I was surprised someone that famous would reply - and reply quickly!

Nice, that is cool. What did you write him about?
 
In 2009, I walked past Paul Riley and Mark Cox in Glasgow's city centre. I only saw them for a split second as I was rushing to get the bus home from college. The two guys were the main actors of Still Game, just to clarify.

Thankfully, I never found myself interacting with said famous person and if I did, I'd be unnerved :coldsweat:
 
The thing about famous people is that some people are more famous than others. For instance, now zz Top is an old band - and top it off - the beards thing is so widespread - nobody can spot them, even if they were chart toppers again!

Other examples include certain famous musicians, writers known in nerdy circles (Noam Chomsky, Neil Peart), not like the late Michael Jackson. In that case, those people don't have to hide their face in public, a benefit of being only so-so famous.
