Ty Williams (Nth Qld Cowboys) and I have the same Aunty - through marraige. (He wouldn't know me if he fell over me though)
I know Scott Bolton (Nth Qld Cowboys). We went to the same primary school

Me and my sister (identical twins) modelled weddings dresses so are in the website and appear in brides diaries (wedding magazine)
Back when we were kids the show popstars made too swedish identical twins famous-Yohan and Heindrick with their song "people are people" They had a casting call for the video clip so we auditioned, but being shy 10 year olds we did make it. Still we met them. Been on TV and radio acouple times too.

I met maynard james keenan from tool but it wasnt in an interesting had a few drinks and hung out with him kind of way, it was at a cd signing thing.

emerald, I also met Maynard at a CD signing, and he was a total prick! Whilst all the other band members were being really nice and saying hello, he wouldn't speak, look at or even acknowledge his fans... really turned me off. I don't listen to APC or Tool anymore.

ha. my (ex) step-sister dated him. she met him backstage at a festival here, and dated him while he was doing shows in sydney and touring around. when she ended up in the states not too much later, he invited her out to LA, and then stood her up at the airport. she was stuck there for 12 hours overnight with no word from him. he is a piece of work.

NYE 98-99 I was working in the Police Force in Sydney. I was down at The Rocks on that night. At 12am, a stunning girl came up to wish me happy new year. I proceeded to kiss her and also had my hand up her very short skirt and it was resting on her rear. Unbeknown to either of us, a reporter for The Telegraph took a photo and we were both on the front page the next day.
After 2 months of restricted station duties and getting my bum kicked from Sydney to Melbourne and back, all was good.

Still waiting for the pic....

had dinner one night at a restaurant in sydney over looking the opera house. the guy at the table beside us didnt have enough room at his table and grabbed the spare table beside mine and must have bumped our table because he said sorry to me. turns out it was Daniel Johns from Silverchair
