It's officially a 2015 sighting, but Ed O'Neill and Britney Spears at the same time at upstairs LAX lounge

Funny note
I just read a pretty funny follow up to the Spears/O'Neil sighting. You might notice Ed seems fairly underwhelmed with meeting Spears. The reason was because he had no idea who she was! I can't post the story link (I'm kind of a ludite with those things), but after his manager saw the 53,000 re-tweets of her tweet, he asked Ed about it. His comment was, "I had no idea who she was. I saw her coming over and she said some nice things about the show (Modern Family) and me and asked for a picture. I said sure and then got out of there fast". Pretty funny actually.

Great reaction from his daughter when she heard the story: "You are a moron"

It's also where I saw Clive Owen and 2 others with tons of outside food that they just left all over the place and made a mess as we were leaving to board the same flight.

The Houston Barnicle has reported a bit on it.
I'd actually like to meet him...not sure why LOL just seems to travel as much as we all do and we share similar attitudes on some locations...
I saw Montel Williams at DCA again a few days ago (saw him a while back at DCA club).

NY Jets coach Todd Bowles
With his wife and sons on flight from EWR to MSY June 24th, all in F. So I guess he doesn't always fly Jet Blue even though they are the airline of the jets (and have good flights to New Orleans).

Met Stanley Tucci on way to London this week and then saw him again at lunch in London - true gentleman! Looks exactly the same in person as he does in movies - which is way more than I can say for most celebrities I've met....

The CEO himself Oscar Munoz boarded my flight right now in BOS! He chatted briefly with the pilots and then spent a few minutes talking to the FAs. I turned to my brother and said, "Hey, that's United's CEO". He just said, "So?" I think I was the only person on the plane visibly excited or who even knew who he was.
