So I pull into the Mobil station in the charger with wife and baby..... and the place is hummin because its the cheapest gas in town at $3.09...so I pull behind a black chevy suv with California plates and the chick is swiping her credit card  at the pump so I turn off the charger and wait..... she has really baggy green shorts and a loose t shirt and sunglasses and pretty much looks a mess.....so Im yacking with the wife and she says, "Hey, that's Renee Zellweger." .....So I take a second look and know what? It was!  She finished pumping, got some hand cleaner from the dispenser in her hands but there were no paper towels....... she kinda left in a huff. The wife got a picture of her as she was leaving on the cell phone cam. The one thing I noticed was she's like so skinny, her legs had no fat at all........just muscle and skin....and there was no makeup......and she could have used some......but then again, Im sure I could too  :P . So I guess I maybe expect her to look like she does in the movies when she's pumping gas  :scope:  :shruggy: ..... It's just weird whenever I see a celebrity out here....thought I'd share

Really? Are you sure? If so, two questions: where's the picture and why were you in California? Oh, wait, I get it. Duh. California plates in NY, right? The Charger probably got more attention than she did. Were her eyes all squinty and her forehead all shiney like a freshly-waxed apple? That seems to be her look.

I saw a woman once in Eastern Oregon who had a remarkably uncanny resemblance to Daryl Hannah. I asked her the standard question: "Has anyone ever told you that you look like Daryl Hannah?" She of course said yes and that's all that was said but after she left I got to thinking that maybe it really was her. I mean what better way to walk around in anonymity outside Hollywood than posing as a look-alike? All you'd have to endure is a few dumb questions once in a while and no one would be the wiser.

The only celebrity (not sure he can be called that) I have seen and met is Steven Greenberg (sp?). For people who don't know, he was the writer and I believe producer of the song Funkytown. I think he also played a few instruments in the song as well.

ooooh, she looks great on the leftside.

I actually prefer the left pic. Hmmm, my biggest celebrity....I've bumped into Dennis Gage once at a car show, hit him a little hard though (not intended). Cool guy, actually stuck around and talked with people in the parking lot.

I worked on a movie, and had my hair cut by a lady that had done her hair.  While I was there I held a personal video camera for the guy who plays "Angel" or something like that on the Buffy series.  (I didn't recognize the guy till I saw him on a TV show a few months later, still can't remember his name) it was his death scene.  I met and talked to Randy Wallace one cold morning before shooting started for about 15 minutes.  I also met another guy that I had seen before, but can't remember his name either,  I know that his character name was "Savage" and he is a big white guy that later played in Remember the Titans a few months later.  BTW, I was a stand in for a really famous actor during this movie too, but never actually got to meet the guy. 

Who can guess what movie it was?

i met robby gordon at watkins glen race track 2 years ago,he was hanging out in the pit area,talked to me and my dad for about 20 minutes,does that count as a celeb meet?

Since we are in the celeb encounter mode, my wife and two daughters were in a NYPD Blue episode in a playground scene with Dennis Franz, Mark Gosselaar, Gordon Clapp and Henry Simmons. They got to have lunch with them and my wife and daughters told me that they were all down to earth regular guys. They even got $ 150.00 each for the shoot plus lunch - very nice lunch I should say. I could'nt go I had to work.  :-\

I met Sean Penn once... I've never liked him because of how out spoken he is... but i liked his acting. he was at a friends funeral. Any one read about Marla Ruzicka, she use to baby sit me as a kid and her mom is my God-Mother. anyway. there were a lot of famous people at her funeral but Sean Penn was the only one to go to the wake... i suppose he couldn't turn down free food... o well I thought it was cool that he stayed around to talk to people. I shook his hand despite our political differences... he seemed like an OK guy... but I still think he is to out spoken on issues he doesn't understand.

Was he dating Madona back then when you met him? You could of asked him if you could smell his hand.  :icon_smile_wink: Sorry about your friend. I agree I think he's a good actor but as soon as he starts with politics, I change the channel.

Marla was a hero of mine.  I emailed back and forth with her about 18 months ago, trying to get her to set up a paypal account so it would be easier for me to help her.  One of life's best gifts is giving society people like her -- she is sorely missed.  Kim

I was an extra in a bunch of background shots on the set of a new movie called "End Game" and stood next to Cuba Gooding Jr. (Show me the money) and Peter Greene (bad guy from The Mask).

I was watching some shooting for ER on Warner Brothers backlot in Burbank and I spoke to a couple of the extras. It really isn't a bad deal for extra (no pun intended) money. They were paid $70 a day just to show up and were fed. They were paid more if they were actually used. The amount varied depending on how visable they were in the scene and if they actually got to say any lines.

I met and spoke to Richard Kiel ("Jaws" from the James Bond movies and the big mean dude on "Happy Gilmore) at length.  Super nice guy...absolutely MASSIVE.  I'm 6'1" and go 280 pounds and the guy made me loo like a 3-year-old.  I cannot convey the hugeness of the dude enough.  His hand spanned about 10 inches from pinkietip to thumbtip.

seen so many celebrities I cant remember half of them. Here in L.A. its no big deal and its an unspoken code that you dont bug them while theyre doing their thing - thats what tourists do.

Last one I saw was Suge Knight at a Denny's in Westwood about 2 months ago. That dude is a big mofo. He was sitting at a booth next to us with a couple of mean looking brothers and these two chicks that looked like whores.

I dont know about that Zellweger broad...shes aight but most of the time she has a look like she just ate one of those "Mega Sour" candy things.

All that aside, she is an awesome actor.

The only celebrity I ever met was Paul Sorvino. My mother was throwing a surprise birthday party for my sister's 16th at a Chinese restaurant where we lived in New Jersey. (Long time ago, she's almost 40 now.) We had friend's & family waiting while my mother was picking up my sister & they were an hour late. I went to a phone booth in the lobby, one with bi-fold doors for you other old people, & started to make calls to find them.

As I was on the phone, my sister & mother walked in. I had to stay there & hide so I wouldn't ruin the surprise. As they passed me to get to the room where everyone yelled "surprise" I saw someone coming in to pick up their take out order. As I waited, I noticed who the person was & said "Hi, Mr Sorvino, right?" He was friendly while waiting to pay for his order & replied "Hi, & yes." I then said something stupid like "I've seen you on TV before." His response while he waved goodbye was, "And movies too."

I don't think I had seen him in a movie yet back then, but I didn't tell him that. Not much Hollywood happening in New Jersey.

Renee Zellweger & Kenny Chesney Split

September 15, 2005
ET has confirmed that RENEE ZELLWEGER and country crooner KENNY CHESNEY have filed to anull their marriage of just over 4 months.

The two tied the knot in a surprise ceremony back in May on the beautiful island of St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where the singer has a home. In a short, 15-minute ceremony performed by a female preacher in front of a small group of family and friends, the bride wore CAROLINA HERRERA, one of her favorite designers, while the groom was reportedly barefoot.

The two met at the Concert of Hope tsunami relief effort last January 15 and maintained a quiet friendship that quickly blossomed. Fans first learned of their romance when Renee reportedly brought a margarita up on stage to Kenny during his show in Jacksonville, FL.

This was the first marriage for both stars, although the 37-year-old Kenny reportedly broke off an engagement to another woman in 1999, three weeks before the wedding. Prior to marrying Kenny, Renee dated WHITE STRIPES singer JACK WHITE and her 'Me, Myself & Irene' co-star JIM CARREY.

Watch ET tonight for the latest on their split.

Renee: My marriage was a fraud
By ALISON BOWYER and NICOLE LAMPERT
18sep05

RENEE Zellweger has claimed her four-month marriage to singer Kenny Chesney was a fraud in court papers filed in Los Angeles.

The actor has taken the unusual step of seeking an annulment of her marriage to the country music star and listed "fraud" as the reason in the papers.

If granted, the annulment will effectively mean the pair were never legally husband and wife.

Fraud is normally cited when a promise was made before the marriage which the person who made it had no intention of keeping. But Zellweger, 36, said yesterday the term was legal language and not a reflection of Chesney's character.

"I would personally be very grateful for your support in refraining from drawing derogatory, hurtful, sensationalised or untrue conclusions," she said. "We hope to experience this transition as privately as possible."

But the news seems to have come as a shock to Chesney, 37, who was said to be struggling to "get his head around things". He said in a statement: "This is an incredibly sad time. I just hope everyone can respect the privacy that I know Renee has asked for."

Zellweger and Chesney were married for only 129 days -- outstanding even by Hollywood standards -- and were estranged for most of that time.

Last night a top US divorce lawyer said the split was the most bizarre he had heard of.

Raoul Felder -- whose celebrity clients have included Elizabeth Taylor and Liza Minnelli's former husband David Gest -- said he was baffled by the case.

"You need to allege fraud in order to get an annulment. The question is, what is the fraud?" he said. "The usual fraud in America is when the wife claims the husband said they were going to have children and now he won't.

"But there have even been cases where the man says he's the Duke of Bedford and it turns out he lives in Brooklyn somewhere.

"It could be that the man turns out to be gay or has a serious disease that he's hiding. I don't get it. There has to be something going on behind the scenes."

Despite denials, the marriage was in trouble from day one and only a few weeks ago a friend of Zellweger said: "Renee had no idea how involved in her life Kenny would want to be. She'd never even seen him lose his temper before the wedding, but now he seems to think he can tell Renee what to do, what to wear, where to go and who to see. He doesn't seem to like her hanging out with her old friends."

The couple apparently couldn't even agree on what to eat and argued after Zellweger's chef prepared a meal for them.

"Kenny started shouting about how he did not want his future children to be eating sushi and fancy French food -- he wanted proper American food and he wanted a wife who could do her own cooking," a source said.

:haha:...damn right!

According to another top divorce lawyer, Sorrell Trope, the failed promise which leads to fraud being cited "has to pertain to the heart of the marriage".

One theory is that Chesney promised to support Zellweger in her career and then withdrew that support. He finished his recent world tour at the end of August, but rather than join his wife as she promoted her latest film, The Cinderella Man, in which she stars opposite Russell Crowe, he went on holiday alone.

Their split has even prompted speculation about Chesney's sexuality. One US-based country music website had to be shut down after it was inundated with e-mails claiming the marriage broke down because he is gay.

The end of the marriage will be extremely distressing for Zellweger. She comes from a traditional background -- her parents have been married for 42 years and she hoped the union with Chesney would be equally strong.

After being heartbroken by the split with her former boyfriend, the pop singer Jack White, she was swept off her feet by Chesney, one of America's biggest country music stars, after meeting him at a tsunami benefit concert in Los Angeles in January.

According to friends, Zellweger was charmed by his admission that he wrote his best known hit, You Had Me At Hello, after seeing her in the film Jerry Maguire.

The couple married on May 9 on a beach in the Virgin Islands, where Chesney has a home. Zellweger looked genuinely happy but she spent much of the reception confiding to friends that she hardly knew her husband.

"She said they were still practically strangers," one said. "She said they hadn't taken a single moment to consider whether they were a long-term match before jumping into marriage."

There's a movie being filmed here at work, working title is "Chronicles" about the Zodiac killer, you guys would love it, as it's set in 1969 and there's all these period cars, trucks taxis etc,.. etc... Robert Downey Jr.   Jake Jylenhaal (sp?) are the actors, they are across the street from me now shooting exteriors of the building one of the actors a star i guess keeps running across the street to the buiding it's this Jake guy apparently, I could care less, no hot chicks that i see but alot of extras in period clothes,.. The cars are cool, a couple old mopes, a dart about a '65 and a '66 bevedere a mess of others,.. it reminds me of my youth i was 12 in 1969...
As far a brushing shoulders with stars, I've talked with Ali on the phone a couple times... and Mike Tyson once, I even got to get mad at him and tell him off   :yesnod: for missing an appointment with me and my sports writer father the day before. (hence my involvement)
  I suspect there's not alot of folks who can say they got to yell at Mike Tyson..   :icon_smile_big:
I've met Bobbie Hull, Gordie Howe and alot of old school Hockey Players and GREAT Boxers even sat in the Giants dug out for a few games (man do those guys swear!!! and the floor is a sea of spit) and, at the peak of the Niners Dynasty I've sat on the grass at the 50 yard line at several championship games I even saw "The Catch"...
To tell the truth though, i was most "star-struck" by the wonderful muscians I've met over the years just hanging out at clubs and being lucky but, knowing this crowd I seriously doubt you've even heard (of) or care about Jazz musicians though.   :icon_smile_wink:

Edit

turns out this movie was written by artist writer Robt. Graysmith an ex-chron employee who i know and last i heard was editing a music video of mine for Sat. Night Live,.. as this was in 1985 or so i guess that project didn't take off.. oh well,..   that's show biz...   :eyes:

I worked on a movie, and had my hair cut by a lady that had done her hair.   While I was there I held a personal video camera for the guy who plays "Angel" or something like that on the Buffy series.
