It was probably covered in herpes blisters.
I played VP side by side with James Woods (The Shark; Lester Diamond in Casino).
We chatted a lot...super nice guy.

Artie Johnson- the actor from Laugh-In and other shows was at the Harveys in Lake Tahoe a number of years ago. I was playing craps and he joined the table for some craps playing. I was playing craps and so cannot remember what his betting amounts were. He seemed personable and laughed a lot.

Sinbad- I have had conversations with him in Las Vegas and other cities. He is a very nice guy and doesn't mind talking to the average fan. In fact he goes out of his way to do so.

Peter Noonan- Herman Hermits guy. Ran into him a couple times. He is nice. Takes time to talk to the fans. Saw his show in the old days and recently at a casino. I didn't get to talk to him this time. His show has improved, still sings well.

Cindy Crawford- Saw her a couple times. Not real personable and not interested in talking to people.

Comment:

I don't approach celebrities. If I run into them somewhere, I expect them to be normal people and converse with fans if they plan to be in the public eye positively in the future.

I would not approach them while they are eating (as many people do). It would be hard to be civil if your dinner is interrupted.

I am not overly impressed with celebrity types.

Sadly, I thought that was Madonna for a sec
In the last 10 years I have met, partied and hung out with a lot of famous people. Chris Angel, met him a few times, used to do some work for him, he's a douche and was banging

about 5 different girls all while married. Met Tara Reid at the Hard Rock when I first moved here, she was high on coke and rolling on exctasy, Met Carrot Top before he started taking

roids, Met Jenny McCarthy a few different times, was in her room at the Palms with her, god I wish I got in her pants hahaha, met Steven Tyler at the Hard Rock talked to him for a few

seconds and got his autograph, Met Marilyn Manson at the Playboy Club, he was pretty weird, got picked to go on stage with David Copperfield a few weeks ago, that was pretty

cool, Phil Hellmuth tried to teach me how to play Chinese poker back in Nov in the Ivey Room at Aria while my friend was in a game with him, met Daniel Negreanu a bunch of times, he

hangs out at Three Angry Wives in Boca Park and he sat down in a 4/8 LHE game with my friend and I at Bellagio in 2003, he sat in the game with 100K lol. I played BJ next to Jimmy

Fallon for about 5 hours one night at the Hard Rock, we got him hammered and he kept giving me chest bumps and throwing $5 chips my way, Andy Taylor from Duran Duran sat with us too.

I met a bunch of celebrities at the WSOP including Ben Affleck, Don Cheadle, Sarah Silverman (she grabbed my ass and told me I was hot), Brad Garrett and Annie Duke.

I had a friend that used to bang Tiger Woods back when he was just engaged to Elin, I was over her house the day after she met/banged him and was listening in while she was on

the phone with him. I got so many more stories but don't wanna write a book, I also have some pics, I can try and put them up if you guys are interested in seeing them.
