ANDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw Dakota Fanning!!!! They were both filming the movie, "The Secret Life of Bees" and they were in OUR small town filming it! My friend and I got a picture with Jennifer Hudson. BUT it's not on my camera. I handed my camera to a lady who couldn't figure out how to push the button! I think she was like me EXCITED and just couldn't get it together. So I'll have to wait for my friend to send it to me in the AM.

I'm so excited. Oh!!! We just missed seeing Queen Latifah!

How GREAT!!!! Love when stuff like that happens!!

A few years ago, my son got his picture taken with "The Fonz"!

[TigerGirl1226]

How fun!!

I love that book! I didn't know they were making a movie.

[southerngirl]

SOOO cool -- That is one of my favorite books -- They sound like great people to play the parts.

I was in Covington Georgia a few years ago and saw Park Overall filming a lifetime movie.

[CM_ANGEL]

That's awesome! I love Jennifer Hudson!

[hplymarried]

Jennifer Hudson was extremely nice. I have never read the book, but I can't wait to read it. It sounds like a really good book. Someone told me it was one of Oprah's book club. Will Smith is one of the producers. We also missed Alicia Key's. She plays one of the bee keepers.

The Secret Life of Bees (2009) Here's a link to some info on the movie.

I cannot wait to go see this movie!

I saw Henry Winkler on Paula's Party one night. He seems like a really nice guy. I use to love him.

Last summer for about 3 weeks they were filming Nicholas Sparks new movie Nights In Rodanthe with Richard Gere and Diane Lane on Topsail Island about 10 minutes from my house so I went down a few times to see Richard Gere but always missed him. I did see Diane Lane though. Not as good as seeing R.G. I felt like the paparazzi standing on the beach. I had been there for a while and a man that was working on the set came down and asked if we were waiting on Richard and I said yes and he told me he was on his way to the set but we had to leave.

[mpayne]

COOL hplymarried! She seems very down to earth and friendly from everything I've seen and read about her. And Dakota Fanning is a doll!

"Nights In Rodanthe with Richard Gere and Diane Lane"

Whoa! That's gonna be GOOD! They were so awesome together in "Unfaithful". ~hehe~

Who didn't love the Fonz?

I love to meet famous people. Here we have Kelly Pavlik the middleweight champion of the world, and he is sooo nice.

I have met alot of famous people and had my pic taken with them. Obviously, I attend Star Wars conventions.

I have met:
George Lucas
Carrie Fisher
Anthony Daniels
Peter Mayhew
Jeremy Bulloch
Ray Park
David Prowse
Billy Dee Williams
Jake Lloyd
Kenny Baker
Temura Morrison

I will try and resize some pics and host them. Meeting George Lucas was a dream come true!!!

Hugs!!!

I have met no one, nobody ever comes to Richmond. So boring here, but my family is here so I am too. I could never leave, my momma would kill me if she did not get to see my babies on a daily basis. Maybe us AFC'ers should have a road trip where so famous people will be and stalk them until we get new pictures for our avatar's!! What do ya'll think?

AHHHH! I LOVE Topsail! It's my favorite beach! I grew up in Sneads Ferry! I hear you guys are getting a HT soon! My family still lives in SF. I'm glad you at least got to see Diane Lane

AND you aren't far from Virginia Beach! I love the beach, try to go every year, but haven't been for the past two.

[hplymarried]

Yeah and Washington, DC. Where I have NEVER been! I wouldn't mind living in VA one of these days. In the very far off distant future! (I better be careful of what I say!)

[Samantha85VA]

Doesnt Missy Elliot (the rapper) have a house in Richmond? She did for awhile....

The lady who played Coal Miners Daughter shops in my Food Lion from time to time haha
