Maybe someone here can help me out. We were at Razoo's on Bourbon Street a few months ago and there was a girl there with an entourage.(ie: bodyguards,friends etc.) Haven't yet identified her. Anyone? The one in the tan jacket...

If you look at the picture of the girl in the Tan Jacket you can tell its not the VS model. The VS Model doesnt have a lower tummy like the girl in the picture..

You ever listen to 92.3 when in New Orleans ? Well, Robb Holloway, on air during the afternoon drive, is my brother, his fiance' is on air in the mornings.

 

Now he is a SUPER nice guy, unaffected by moderate celebrity - ism. Wish those "famous" here in LA were more like him.

There was no one famous on our cruise but when I was in high school, our marching band played in the Mardi Gras parades and Andy Gibb was getting off the elevator as I was getting on. I almost fainted! Not really, but I had been a huge fan of his a couple years earlier!:o

We were on the Nordic Empress in 97 with our kids who were then 6 and 7 and there was a guy working as a counselor in the kids camp who had been on "Saved by the Bell". I have no idea what his name is, but I think his characters name was Screech, or something like that. I just know he wasn't the guy who ended up on NYPD Blue. My kids knew instantly who he was.

That would be Dustin Diamond. Sad that I didn't even have to look it up. :rolleyes:

In 1997, my wife and I took a short repositioning cruise on the Dawn Princess (Vancouver to LA). When we got into the dock, the mad rush ensued to disembark with people standing around like lemmings. My wife and I retreated to the pool area and copped a table and chairs. Soon, a bunch of guys with cameras and equipment came piling aboard and setting up lights and stuff. We waited then asked what was going on. A guy with the crew said that they were there to shoot some Baywatch scenes that needed re-takes. In about 15 minutes, in filed David Hasselhoff, followed by a STUNNING Gina Lee Nolan and, straggling in a bit later, Pamela Anderson. Hasselhoff milled around talking and when I nodded he walked over and signed an autograph and took a picture with my wife. The ladies and their entourage sat down at the table next to us. Gina Lee in tight leather pants and even tighter sweater was a real treat. Pamela with no make-up, slobbering down a bowl of something was a disgusting site. I'll say this, her make-up people should receive medals! Ha! I took a bunch of pics of the ladies but kick myself to this day that I didn’t have MY picture taken with THEM!

Not a cruise but in 1980 on a flight from Tokyo to LA the Osmonds were on our plane. It was a charter flight(probably theirs). They were finishing up their world tour. Must have been over 200 of them. The whole fam damily. They filled up half the plane. Thank God they didn't sing for us. They did look like they were having a hellofagood time though.

When I was 9 my mom and I took the Amtrak (probably the closest you can get to a "land cruise") from St Paul, MN to New York and Washington D.C. and Michael Gross stopped and talked to us while we were sitting in our compartment with the door open. It was very cool, though my mom didn't realize who it was until I told her after he'd left. If you don't know who Michael Gross is, he played the father, Steven Keaton, on "Family Ties" and was also the "survivalist" guy, Burt Gummer, in the Tremors movies.

Last year I was on the Carnival Legend. John Davidson was on ship as a guest entertainer. I had seen him around the ship, having lunch and such.

 

Anyway, I had finished using the gym, and had showered and just finished getting dressed in the spa lockerroom when John Davidson, who apparently was using the men's steam room, burst into the locker room and started to ask loudly, " Where can I get some water? Can anyone get me some water?"

 

He then approached me, and ask, " Oh, can you get me some water, I'm hot and thirsty" When I told him I don't work there, here appeared a bit flustered and said, "oh, you're the only one dressed, so I thought you worked here".

 

BTW, I'm Asian-American, so I think he automatically ASSUMED that I was the help.

 

His show was awful, in case you were interested. He definately falls in the category of a has-been. In the beginning of his show, he was literally writhing on the floor, completely on his back, talking about some nonsense, and this went on for about 15 mins. I though he had completely lost it. Another part of the show, he had picked a young woman, early 20's, out of the audience, and proceeded to fawn incessantly about how pretty and sexy she was. He kissed her on the hand, but then proceeded to kiss her arm all the way to her cheek. Given he is in his 60's, it was a pathetic, and frankly disgusting bit, and he came off as a old, leachering man.
