So when he excused himself to use the restroom, did someone ask the flight attendant if she had "Prince Albert-in-a-Can"?



My own short list of celebs includes Macy Gray and Alan Thicke.

Back on May 10th at LHR T3, Quentin Tarantino was chatting with one of the security guys, I passed him by in a hurry, since I had an extremelly tight (15 min or so) connection to T2. Btw, I made it on time.. amazed myself I managed such a record

Regards,

Chris

Tyra Banks on a LAX-JFK flight. Of course, 1 hour into the flight we had technical probs and had to turn around. Needless to say Tyra (with the pressing need to scout America's Next Top Model) did not seem to wait out the 3 hr technical delay.

Herschel Walker in First Class, ORF-DFW. I was too bashful to do anything but politely stare... he boarded right in front of me, and appeared to have no special escorts/treatment. Wish I could have sat next to him, though...

Saw Maria Sharapova last Monday morning at the Flagship Lounge at LHR (Terminal 3), fresh from her win at Wimbledon. Looks like she was flying AA to New York. I was on AA's Miami flight (F) and would have been nice to sit next to her.....

Pat Obrien, Flagship Lounge, LAX. Today. He's on his way on the 8 a.m. flight to JFK.

Some 20 something year old (appeared to be a hollywood-type intern) walks up to him and say's, "He Mr. Obrien, I'm working on the Insider with you." He replies, "Oh, that's nice. Did you hear NBC is sueing me for like $108 Million dollars?" Not sure why Pat Obrien mentioned it, nor if it is true.

Well that's certainly a very odd thing for Pat O'Brien to say to the intern......and that's a heck of a lot of money to be sued for.

I saw Ben Stein on my flight from LAX-ORD on Monday. He had his driver escort him and his bags all the way to the gate. I'm not sure how his driver got past security.

Celebrity Sightings

The whole Osmond family when they were young and singing together - our parents tried to get my sisters and me to go up and meet them (they were all in coach), but we were too shy.

Joan Rivers and her Yorkshire Terrier.

Yackov Smirnoff (?? spelling) - Russian comedian based in Branson, MO.

The nice, older gentleman (now deceased) on Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, whose name I can't remember at the moment, in the Little Rock airport.
