two weeks ago, carrot top came in at the rei in summerlin. not sure if he counts as a celebrity though.

[desertsun41]

Lets see, I have met many, these are the ones who hired me to perform my magic in their homes.

Starting from the most famous:
Celine Dion and then manager Renee
Mike Tyson
Robin Givins
Mark Slaughter from the 80s rock band Slaughter
Lance Malone (the shamed Clark Cty Commisioner who went down in the G-string trial)
Tiger Woods (despite his denial he does or did own a very large home in Rhodes Ranch)
Buddy Hackett's son Sandy. They both sure were animal lovers !
Catfish Hunter (Oakland As pitcher. Sadly he died 5 months later)
Robert Allen (from the hit LV musical Splash) He also does stand up comedy on the strip in clubs. I built his recording studios behind Boulder Station which today is in disrepair and seemingly abandanded.


Then the ones I actually met which had nothing to do with work. Something more then just a notice in a crowd, those I met:

David Crosby and his long lost son James Raymond
Judy Collins and her family
Neil Shoen from Journey
Carrot Top (wife knows him well enough to call friend) Red heads stick together he always says)
Smokey Robertson at the Thai restaurant Lotus of Siam on Sahara. He says its his favorite restarant in all of LV. I think it's mine too. He is easy to find on a Saturday night there. He almost always orders Seared Scallops.



Then there is a list of names whom I worked for who I promised never to revel their names:

Member of Aerosmith who has a home in Henderson
Offensive Tackle for Tampa Bay Buccaneers who lives in Southern Highlands
Clark County Judge who lives in Summerlin whom you all seen on TV
MLB player for the Minnesota Twins up in Lone Mountian not too far from our own Olecapt.
A WWE Wrestler and 5 time weight lifting champ


Just sightings but did not meet:
Ricky Cheese from channel 13 news who's mother lived right behind me at Cimmaron and Westcliff
Gladys Knight shopping in the Alladin


Those I want to meet:
Reba McEntire
Jennifer Nettles
Phil Collins

Carrot Top is at the 24 hour fitness on W. Sahara a lot. I also saw Lawrence Taylor (hall of fame football player) at V-bar at the Venetian a couple months ago. Rev Run or Run DMC at Hard Rock.

Having worked in television and directed shows that had all the top entertainers as guests, I can't get too excited about this thread. But I will tell you this story. I once belonged to the old Sporting House Athletic Club on Industrial Road. I'd see a lot of well known people in there, but the best was when I saw Rodney Dangerfield in the shower. I almost said...but couldn't get up the nerve...I see why you get no respect.

oh man.. ouch!!!!

He used to get similar jokes during his stand-up routine and was quite adept at dealing with hecklers. When someone in the crowd yelled out "your **** is too small", he'd say "Glad you remembered!"
