Just got off the phone with my Mom, she and Dad are on the way home from Africa. On the most recent leg of their flight, from Rawanda to somewhere, Ann Curry was in business class with them.
There were only eight seats in business and Ann and her crew had six, so they were all chatting with my folks about their trip (safaria and gorilla trekking) and looking at my dads pics. My mom said Ann was so charming and sweet, she was actually the one to start the conversation. I asked what she was wearing. It was Black Converse (I think from my mom's description), black stretch pants and a long sleeve black shirt with turquoise stripes down the sleeve. My mom said she looked just as adorable as she does on tv.
So what famous interactions have you had and what was your impression? Looking for more than a brief autograph interaction.
Another one I had. I worked in tv a long time ago, was working in Gainesville, Fl as a producer for the weekend news. David Ogden Stiers (played Winchester on MASH) came to the station for a live interview for something, obviously publicity for something. Well, since it was the weekend it was just me, the anchor Doris and the crew there. Doris was so excited to meet him and everything. Mind you, this was a small station, we didn't have a green room or anything like that. When he got there Doris took him to the break room and was trying to make him feel comfortable. She was making him coffee and asked him "How do you like your coffee?" His reply? "Faster than this."
Poor Doris was crushed!
