I should hope so given all the cosmetic work he had as a candidate......

Nothing recent, but I used to fly into LAX all the time so I have seen a few:
Dennis Hopper, waiting for his limo outside the terminal, with some VERY young female. I had no idea who he was. I was waiting for my business associate to pick me up, he asked me if I was waiting long, I said no. More idle chit chat....Then when my associate picked me up, she asked me what I was talking to Dennis Hopper about. I felt like a moron cuz I thought I was just talking to some dude....ha!
Was on a flight once in F with one of the girls from Baywatch - I can never remember her name but she was the lieutenant, short hair - the only one who had (ahem) a small chest....
And this is probably D-list but I was on a flight with the ENTIRE final 10 cast of American Idol, 2nd season - Ruben, Clay, et al.....they were on their AI Tour, and on their way to Utah from OKC....

AA 1924 DFW - ATL - 17th October
I was in 5E and I 'think' Adam from Mythbusters was in 4B. Couldnt see his face all that well, but was 99% sure. He is one hyperactive individual, even with a 10.40pm arrival into ATL.
Then again, that day after 35 hours of traveling, it could have been Ronald McDonald, for all I know.....

Dennis Rodman today in 2A on flight 34 LA-JFK. Later at home saw a promo that included him for Weekends at the DL on Comedy Central. Probably on the way to that appearance.

Not sure if this qualifies as a "Celebrity" for I saw Janet Reno on flight #1068 between IAH-MIA on Thursday night. She was sitting on F by the time I boarded the plane

Flight from Dallas to Phoenix Nov 8th.
One of the nicest guys you'd ever hope to meet. No ego whatsoever, didn't even mention he was a Nascar driver, let alone winning the Dallas race.
