I see famous people!

[SIZE=1]Being a Clockwork Orange fan gives you a mountain of respect in my books. But this...

...God I hate you... =p

(If there's anyone I'd turn straight for, it's Noel Fielding).[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]It was definitely a good day - this great big concert at Royal Albert Hall with Noel Fielding and friends, ending with a live performance by the Mighty Boosh band.

Then, as if that wasn't enough, we met Noel and Julian (as well as Dave Brown, Mike Fielding and Rich Fulcher) after the show outside the stage door. Missed the last train home, but it was worth it.

For those of you not familiar with the madness that is Boosh, [B][URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBHGBWicAtM"]here[/URL][/B]'s a link to a pretty good clip. Watch it, let the insanity wash over you.

[size=1]With any luck, I'll hope to meet the Boosh Boys soon too! I was given tickets to an October show here in Cardiff for my birthday. Just seeing them live would be cool enough for me but to actually meet them too, that'd be real classy!

@ Vicky: I find it strangely odd that you'd turn straight for a man who is so much like a woman. I still really don't get why girls like guys who looks like girls. On a funny side note, I told a girl she looked like Noel the weekend before last. She took it surprisingly well because I left with both my face and my balls intact!

EDIT: Oh, and I suppose I should mention that, aside from seeing the members of Metallica, Rammstein and Nickelback at gigs, I haven't really had any celebrity sightings. Not many of them choose to come to the Valleys of South Wales, believe it or not.[/size]

I saw "Flavor Flav" in Las Vegas once, with his stupid oversized clock, hahaha.

And then, also from his show, that one Pumpkin girl was my substitute once.

[SIZE=1]That's why I would turn straight for him; he looks like a woman. There's this guy (yes guy) I liked for about two years (really really liked) and he looked like a girl. In fact, he often cross dressed and wore wigs.

I was just speaking to a friend from Sweden who claims to have been offered to go for a coffee with Tom Baker. I wonder, haha XD[/size]

[COLOR="DarkSlateGray"][SIZE="1"]How do you think I feel? Some people think I'd like to date a transvestite cause I'd get both >_< which is not the case... besides if I get a penis/vagina I'd like the rest to go along with it.

Anyways, ummm, celebritites! I wish I could meet the cast of Heroes. I mean, the cast is beautiful! It's like a wet dream for me.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[font=trebuchet ms]I was in Iceland for a few weeks this summer, and apparently the lead singer of Sigur Rós frequents my favorite coffeeshop there. I saw him once, and other people in my group saw him on other occasions. Even though I'm not very familiar with Sigur Rós, it was still pretty cool.

Apparently Iceland doesn't have the same concept of "celebrity" that we do. The topic came up with some of my Icelandic acquaintances, and it's apparently no big deal to run into Jónsi or Björk in Reykjavík. I know that if either of them showed up at one of my regular coffeeshops in the states, they would be swarmed by fans and admirers... But it wasn't a big deal for them to sit around in a café in Reykjavík unmolested.

One of the people I was with wanted to ask Jónsi for an autograph, but everyone around us seemed so unsurprised to see him, that it would have been awkward and rude to go up and disturb him.

Which is funny, too, because that's how you would feel about interrupting a "normal" person at a coffeeshop. The American view of celebrities is that they, by virtue of their talent and fame (or just plain fame) have become public property—feel free to stare at them, interrupt them, or touch them! After all, they're here for [i]you[/i]!

It's creepy if you think about it.[/font]
