Went to a Jack Johnson concert at the Hollywood Bowl years back. Bunch of friends sitting at the top row of the top section. My friend managed to get some dude to pass down a fake cigarette pipe to him. Within seconds, a security guard nabbed him and was ready to throw him out. Most of us, including myself, were pretty confused because we didn’t see the exchange so we too thought it was a cigarette.

After a minute of confusion and deliberation, some lady intervened placing her hand on the security guards hand. “This is a rock concert, these things are normal” explained Julia Roberts. The security guard was puzzled at first, then backed off. My friend got to stay, concert was great, the end.

A lady I used to work with ran a boat rental business on Lake Coeur d’Alene and Robin Williams came with two other people and rented a boat from her. Robin stayed on the lake too long and his boat ran out of gas so he called her to come and get him and give him a tow. She said the other two guests got into her boat but Robin Williams stayed back on the boat that had run out of fuel and pretended to be driving it. She said he stood at the helm for 45 minutes having a conversation/yelling/laughing to himself while he steered the wheel back and forth and pretended to be at sea. She also said he was the nicest, happiest, and most energetic person she had ever met.

My little cousin was walking onto her plane at LAX with her family, as they were going through the first class section they had to stop. All of a sudden, Richard Simmons turns around and says to my 8 year old cousin, “I just love your outfit!” (In his voice if you can imagine it)

I was in an elevator with Pete Sampras and he stood in the corner facing the wall until we got to the lobby.

A friend of mine always tells the story of his encounter with Bill Murray. Whilst walking home from a near-by Dominoes pizza back to the house, Bill Murray comes up behind my friend, takes the pizza and runs away with it shouting “No one’s going to believe you!”

I met Kanye West at what used to be the Virgin Megastore on Michigan Ave. He was buying Jay-Z’s Black Album. When my friend and I asked him why he was buying a CD he had a part in.. He replied with ‘I gotta support myself too’ proceeded to shake our hands and talk about his work with Kweli. Cool guy despite his arrogant ways.
