Meeting celebrities is a thing of the past for me. After serving as the editor-in-chief of my university's newspaper for 2 years...back in the early 90s...I have met and interviewed quite a few "celebs" including:
Kim Coles
JODECI
Bill Cosby
Cuba Gooding Jr
The late, great Phylis Hyman
Najee
Susan Taylor
Mandela
Oprah
not to mention a host of U.S. Congress Representatives and Senators
Big Daddy Kane
Public Announcement (R Kelly)
IDEAL (who was just "Ms. Green's boys to me, one of the guy's mom worked at my school)
And I must say that when you have an agenda (an interview) it makes it more relaxing and you don't view them as a "celeb".
My all time fav interview was with Cuba Gooding Jr. right the summer of Boyz in the Hood, July 11 the day before my birthday! He was sooooo nice and laid back.
