When I was a sports journalist I interviewed a few famous athletes (most famous were probably Derek Jeter and Rob Dibble) and sports personalities (mostly from ESPN) - some were really great interviews (Chris Berman and Dan Patrick were incredibly nice, as was Rich Eisen), some were pretty rude (won't mention names).
I've also dealt with some famous people (athletes, actors/actresses and politicians) in other professional settings, but I can't give names because of confidentiality issues.
Finally, one of my high school friends (we're not in touch anymore) has been featured in a few commercials (for Axe Body Spray, and the T-Mobile commercial with Brett Favre). She's also been in a couple of movies and television shows.
