Elvis has been on several of our cruises - full Vegas-type suits every day.    On one cruise he participated in the passenger talent show and got booed off the stage - not one of his better performances.

Did Celebrity Summit at end of August this year and Sean Connery was on board. He got off in Bermuda, did not do the return trip.

Wife read Carly Simons autobiography and her and her sister met him in the 1960’s on a cruise ship.

A lot of celebrities you wouldn't know them out in public without a professional makeup artist and wardrobe person.

 

I could stand next to 99% of them and wouldn't know who they were nor care.

 

A friend of mine used to be married to a CW star.  We were in Nashville and met them for dinner.  That afternoon, we had seen her star in the CW Hall of Fame.

 

So we walked up to the podium and found it was going to be a 45 minute wait, no one recognized her.

 

We were fine, as it was a nice night, so we stood outside socializing.

 

Then a stretch limo with dark windows came by, and she is peering in, and said, "I wonder if someone famous is inside."

 

And I am thinking, YOU are famous.

Not so far on a cruise.

 

I saw Ben Vereen and Tyne Daley at Haunamau Bay in Hawaii.

 

Coming back one trip, it was the day after the Pro Bowl.  Larry Csonka and the first Mrs. Bradshaw were seated in front of us (we were in First).  And most of the rest of the passengers were players.  I had a nice chat with one of the coaches from the Bengals when I got up to move around.

Nice piece of writing.

For me it was John Travolta on Enchantment of the Seas and Taylor Swift on Allure of the Seas. 

You do know that John Travolta ended up being in a lawsuit about his actions during this cruise !!

Details?

 

You'd think he'd charter a huge yacht with a chef etc rather than mingle with the hoi polloi.

I feel like a post of mine was removed.

 

I passed Garrison Keillor in the main corridor on Deck 3 on Queen Mary 2 during a transatlantic crossing this past June. I greeted him as we passed and he absolutely did not acknowledge my greeting or my presence.

I find his voice so annoying I can't listen to him.  Like he cares 🙂

Was on a cruise in the 80’s and actor Ralph Waite from the Walton’s was on , he spent most of the cruise in the bar (which I see nothing wrong with) a girl wanted her picture with him, his only question was do we have a camera.
