Adam Levine
Flight 135 LHR-LAX, seat 1D
Saw him on the flight but had no idea he was rich or famous. When he walked out of TBIT the paparazzi's cameras started going off and I had to ask someone who he was. It was all lost on me. Oh well.

Indeed. Joan was an incredibly loyal American Airlines customer and was known for being one of the friendliest, most kind and approachable celebrities that frequented American Airlines. She had close, personal relationships with various AA employees, including flight attendants and VIP ground staff. Many American Airlines employees from LAX and JFK attended her funeral, including flight attendants - she was that close to so many of them.
RIP, Joan.
RIP, Joan.

A couple recent sightings:
John McCain in the AC at LAX on 10/23 (not the FL, strangely -- I figured they'd let him in there but either they didn't, or he didn't ask). Dressed in a suit with his American flag lapel pin, LOL.
Pierce Brosnan in 1A on AA 172 LAX-JFK on 10/27, I was seated right beside him in F. He's aging so well.

Passed by Gwyneth Paltrow coming down the security escalators at LAX last night. Surrounded by paps with flashes going off the entire time. Heard a question about Jennifer Lawrence and The Hunger Games.

Scott Wilson (Hershel Greene) from Night of the Living Dead in seat next to me on 2201 DFW to TPA a few weeks back - very chatty, pleasant man. Warren Sapp (former Tampa Bay Buccaneer) across the aisle - very snarky and entitled. Ugh.

Gabrielle Carteris (aka Andrea Zuckerman from 90210) and husband are trying to escape flight 2433 (DFW > LAX), which went mechanical moments ago.

Sitting across the aisle from Julia Stiles (8F) on AA 22 (LAX > JFK). Also in the cabin: Cedering "Voice of the Oscars" Fox and Campbell Scott (9A, 9C) and my seat mate screenwriter Carroll Cartwright, who got a golden ticket and is ONLY AAdvantage Gold.

^ Seems to be very friendly chap.
Regarding Joan Rivers, remember witnessing when she got very angry at staff at LHR T4 when her bag was too big and she questioned why they didnt check other Pax. This was also when the strictly 1 bag only rule was in force.
