Now, I don't know if y'all have done anything like this, but I thought it would be amusing and entertaining (alright, I'm bored!) to talk about those famous folks we have encountered who were, shall we say, less than pleasant.
Now, I'd like to start out on a positive note, and mention the celebrities I have dealt with who have been absolutely wonderful, nice people, and not at all SC's, as too often in life, we focus on the negative. (Despite what some in here think, I actually DO like my job....both of them!)
Some really cool famous folks I have had the pleasure of dealing with include Sandra Bullock (absolute sweetheart), Mark McGwire (very quiet and polite), Rob Schneider, Charles Barkley (hilarious!), Dan Patrick (from ESPN), Robin Roberts (formerly of ESPN, now of Good Morning America, or one of those morning shows I am never awake early enough to see), Hootie & the Blowfish, Magic Johnson, Dikembe Mutumbo, and Cheech Marin (absolutely wonderful dude). Honestly, overall, the vast majority of celebrities I have dealt with have ranged from cool to awesome. There were one or two others that were neither great nor horrible, so I am just not mentioning them at all...they were either too boring or for whatever reason did not make an impression on me.
However....
There was Her. The Diva to end all Divas, the Entitlement Whore, the demanding biatch that I hope never to encounter again, for any reason: Vanessa Williams.
Yep, that's right, Ms. Got Her Miss America Crown Taken Away Because Of Dirty Pictures herself. She was at the brewpub I worked at with a large party, and was rude, obnoxious, demanding, petulant, mean, annoying, and just downright terrible to her server--me. And when I say terrible, I mean the snapping of the fingers type terrible. That kind of person. It was fortunate that she was with a large party and I was able to put a gratuity on the check, because I have no doubt I would have seen little from her otherwise in the form of a tip. She was just.....evil.
I hope none of you ever have the displeasure of dealing with her for any reason, and I can honestly say I am glad that it appears her career is pretty much in the toilet. I'm not a saint...sue me.
Okay....who's next?
