Well I am star struck. One of my British friends was over in LA on business and was drinking at the bar of his hotel alone when Colin Farrell turned up, sat next to him and offered to buy him a drink. After chatting for a while it suddenly occurred to Colin (I feel I can call him that now) that my friend had no blinking clue who the hell he was. So he asked my friend if he did indeed know who he was and my friend, bless him, said truthfully no but pointed out that normally checking ones passport would help to confirm ones identity (I know, he's posh and he thinks he's funny!) anyway they spent the evening chatting away and then Colin invited him to a nightclub and walked him passed the queue of wannabies waiting to get in and they ended up having a great laugh at the club. My friend still not knowing who this guy was even offered to buy him a drink he said no but order anything you like at the bar on me. Most of the evening Colin was giving my friend hilarious clues as to who he was but to be honest my friend wouldn't have known him from adam anyway and so still didnt get it, other than he realised by then he was in a couple of films. The next day my friend sent a text message to his kids saying, I went for a beer with Colin Farrell, apparently he's famous!

hmmm love his irish accent

Ray

Umm!! I have no idea who Colin Farrell is either ......

cutina

can't stand him... ugly, bad actor, his accent may be the only thing going for him. I saw him in the meat-packing district of manhattan last year, he looked even worse in the flesh.
my friend says when she sees him, it makes her think 'syphillis'... now i can't look at him without thinking it

Sounds like a tame night, something I thought Colin (I know him well enough to call him that too, I've watched a few of this movies!!! ) was incapable of doing?!?! What a great story to tell people, I'm envious!

Ray, I also met Gene Autry that might impress you as it is more in your timeline.

My hubby was once sat with the Backstreet Boys on a Virgin Flight. Having absolutely no idea who they were he called my daughter, saying that he had been sat with some lads from a band and did she know who they were. She hit the roof, they had been offering him all sorts of stuff during the flight and he refused.

You must be nuts, I'd have been there in a flash!
