Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

Awesome!! Jmmy was really kind. I was allowed to bring 7 friends with me to the concert. Backstage was limited to myself and one guest.

He has invited me to join him for dinner this week in Melbourne.

Good bloke, see him regularly syd to Mel
 
Ian Healy is sitting in the BNE domestic J lounge right now ;)

Oh, and I caught a flight from EDI to LHR about a year ago and Wil Anderson was on the flight. I would have said hello but some loser was talking his ear off about how he wanted to get into standup :rolleyes:
 
The Wiggles in the BNE J Lounge now. Studiously ignoring everyone, including each other!

Kerrie Anne and co are here too.
 
Fairly sure I was sitting near Thérèse Rein a couple of months back. I looked back as we were alighting, just to check if it really were her, and I'm 95% sure it was. She seemed nice.

We saw the St. Kilda footy team arrive back around the same time as us. Was rather funny watching all the younger ones try the smart gate and it failing for all of them!

Yes, that made me chuckle too. I saw one young fella standing motionless facing the camera for almost 60 seconds, seemingly oblivious to the "1. Insert ticket" and "2. Look at camera" instructions glaring back at him.

I saw Nick Riewoldt, but was too far away to ask for a photo with him, plus I don’t think customs would have liked him stripping off in there :p

But it was funny watching the young guys at the smart gates :D

It must have been all the drugs they took in NZ...

Saints deny 'culture problem' despite latest scandal

Another day, another StKFC scandal ;)

(they did look pretty zonked out, or are AFL players just that dumb?)
 
jdlover saw Iggy & the Stooges and Wolfmother in Syd J enroute to BDO on Saturday. I am gutted I missed Iggy - he is one of the few people I would embarass myself for by asking for a photo! :D

I thought Riewoldt looked a little grumpy stalking through arrivals. Maybe he needs to loosen up and join in the fun with his teammates. :mrgreen:
 
Flew to DPO with half the Hawks team this morning.
Controversy certainly is dogging the Saints.Pity they dont have anyone like this fellow anymore-
Baldock fighting for his life Tasmania News - The Mercury - The Voice of Tasmania
TASMANIAN football legend Darrel Baldock is fighting for his life in the Mersey Community Hospital at Latrobe.
A hospital spokesman said Baldock was gravely ill and was surrounded by family members yesterday.
Baldock, the captain of St Kilda's only premiership team in 1966, was admitted to hospital at the weekend after suffering his fourth stroke.
He has been visited by several former teammates. The former Latrobe champion is regarded as Tasmania's greatest footballer.
He played 119 games for St Kilda from 1962-68, kicked 237 goals and was the club's best and fairest in 1962, 1963 and 1965.

Currently sitting in the MEL J Lounge and Ruslan Kogan is wandering around (unashamedly wearing his Kogan Cap).

Nothing like shameless self promotion ;)
 
Not in flight but at dinner last night we saw Mick Molloy and Glen Robbins being wined and dined...
 
For the Anytime Access Wake in the SYD F Lounge as we were leaving, I spotted neurosurgeon Charlie Teo.

On 14/2 again in the SYD F Lounge spotted celebrity/entertainment reporter Richard Wilkins.

A few months back I saw Shane Warne flirting with attendants at the gate while they upgraded him (no idea why he was in Y).

I suppose Warne flirting isn't anything new
