As for me, most of the famous people I've met are like, quasi celebrities at best, also, does skype and emailing count as meeting?

I was at university when she opened the newly built library and I was one of the students chosen to meet her.

I've also met Prince William as well when he was at St Andrews university as he used to go to the same cinema as me. Well when I say "met" him I actually mean sat next to him at the cinema....And when I say sat next to him I mean there was an bodyguard between him and me.

Oh ya, I forgot. I had the same thing happen in an airport. I was sitting, waiting to get on a plain, and Angus Young and his bodyguard set next to me. I didn't say anything because I wanted to respect his privacy.
