Brian Adams told me in not so many words that my singing is awful. Rick Rude...RICK RUDE, of all people, took my autograph book outside of a house show when I was about 9. Noted baseballer Jim Thome was super awesome to me. Met him at a gas station, I had just cleaned my car so I had nothing for him to sign. He pulls out a BAT from his truck, signs it and gives it to me. Oh yeah...Rick Rude...almost forgot. He came back and it was loaded with signatures. Apparently, he took it to the boys and they all signed it. i LOVE the Rude story-so did you think he was being a bad guy when he took it? Well, yeah. I was heartbroken. The man just walked up to me, was all "Lemme see that, kid!", snatched it and left. Damn near in tears....till he came back. Then I was totally in tears.

Friend who works in the music business and has met pretty much everyone (and is generally positive about people, a glass half full type of guy) claims Madonna is awful.

Seinfeld once tipped me a dollar in the hamptons , I was a valet . The pos sarcastically tells me dont spend it all at one place , I told him your show sucks and your standup is boring .
Also not as bad as Jerry , Taz was walking around the home depot I worked at a he passes by me and says excuse me in a loud and rude manner then gave me a nasty look - I didnt even realize it was him until a co worker pointed it out to me afterwards
as for a positive story , Mick Foley shopped at the home depot I worked at ( different store then the one I saw Taz ) . I helped pick out a few things , and told how big a fan I was - he stayed and talked wrestling with me for 20 mins . He came back to the store on 3 more times & he knew me by name . So me and Mick were once Aquainted

Steve Coogan. Walked around the public bar area of the o2 while I was working and asked me a question and he didn't like my answer and gave me the "do you know who I am" look.
Overrated unfunny prick.

Brad Arnold of 3 Doors Down,known Brad since he was 12 or so. And without breaking board rules all I can say is he is an asshole and pretty much strongly disliked or hated by most of the people in his home town.

Bruce Willis and his kids passed me in line at Six Flags White Water in Marietta, GA when I was a kid. I've never forgiven him.
I grew up near every member of the country group Alabama. The lead singer is known to be quite the asshole.

This story pretty much gives away my age, but here goes. My boss and I bunked off work early to see the Michael Keaton Batman movie shortly after it came out. After the film, I cut through Leicester Square and passed the outdoor cafe area of a hotel and saw actors Jack Lemmon (legend) and Sir Michael Gambon seated at a table having tea. Apparently they were both in a play in the West End of London at the time. I am a massive mark for Lemmon so I screwed up my courage and went over for an autograph. Jack Lemmon could not have been nicer. I told him what a fan I was, he thanked me, asked me what I'd been to see at the cinema and engaged me in an animated discussion about movies. He autographed my ticket stub (it was all I had on me) and wished me a good evening and actually thanked me for being a fan. Meanwhile, Sir Michael sat not two feet away from me on the other side of the table and gave me the stink eye the whole time. He ignored my few tentative questions and refused to even look at me. He was an absolute tool to me and poor Jack actually looked embarrassed as he signed my ticket and sent me on my way. I was pretty psyched by meeting one of my idols but as time went by I became increasingly irked by the behaviour of Gambon. To this day, whenever I see him on TV I change the channel. I now actively hate the man....

when I was a kid I went to school with NHL tough guy and local celebrity Zach Stortini.... and he was every bit as big a goon when he was a kid. beat the shit out of me on at least 2 separate occasions in spite of being twice my size (he was already a lumbering ox when he was 12) and for no damn reason.

I was actually talking with my wife about this thread, and she backed up my story about Travis Tritt and added one of her own. She used to work in a grocery store in town, and Tritt would come in once every few months, and one time, she worked the register and had to card him for alcohol, and got a "C'mon, you know who I am". Which elicited a very sarcastic "I don't know who you are, same as every one else till I see your ID". Apparently he was always a colossal ass whenever he would come in, wearing "disguises" that were clearly just ways to draw attention to himself.

I got this from a basketball player when I worked for a video game store. I forget who he was, but he played for the Orlando Magic and wasn't Shaq or Penny Hardaway. Scott Skiles? That's the only other guy I can think of without looking them up. Dennis Scott or Nick Anderson?

I was actually talking with my wife about this thread, and she backed up my story about Travis Tritt and added one of her own. She used to work in a grocery store in town, and Tritt would come in once every few months, and one time, she worked the register and had to card him for alcohol, and got a "C'mon, you know who I am".

My uncle met him and called him a cheap Waylon knock off for being a ass.

Dennis Scott or Nick Anderson? Did he have glasses? If so Horace Grant I have my doubts. His big claim to fame is his fairly successful stint with the Bulls. I think that anyone struggling to remember him would think of him as "that guy from the Bulls".

Not really irked or anything, but Elijah Wood accidentally gave me a slight black eye in 2005. He was King of the Bacchus parade at Mardi Gras and beaned me in the face with a bag of beads. Slightly less harmful than getting beaded with a bean bag.

Lemmy from Motorhead called me a c***.
We were in an airport and he and his crew were in a rush. A mate of mine tried to ask for a picture but he just looked at us and said "We're in a hurry you c***s!"
Best day ever.
