Name a celebrity that you think would be cool as hell to hang out with.

[LostInAnomie]

I think Chris Isaak would be pretty cool.

[philosophie_en_rose]

1. Alton Brown, Oprah Winfrey

[TOhioLiberal]

2. Keith Olbermann...

...so smart and funny.

[w8liftinglady]

7. oh,yeah-him,too...

[lizziegrace]

3. Viggo

and not just for his looks. He's fascinating.

[haf216]

88. He gets my vote too.

[w8liftinglady]

4. the Indigo Girls,Matt Damon,and Moby

[LostinVA]

39. I did hang out with the Indigo Girls back in 1983

During my first year of college -- before they were famous. I almost passed out a few years later when they popped up on MTV with "Closer to Fine."

[Generic Brad]

5. Willie Nelson

[Initech]

31. I'd definitely want to smoke a joint with Willie Nelson!

[Whoa_Nelly]

78. Dog, G B!

You are so spot on! ;)

[femmocrat]

6. Jimmy Buffett

[TroubleMan]

8. Aaron McGruder, Dave Chappelle, or John Stewart

nt.

[Chan790]

111. I had a friend in college who knew McGruder

...apparently not fun, he's the personification of Huey. Funny, but it gets old fast.

[dropkickpa]

9. Tony Bourdain

Alton Brown
Jane Fonda
a bunch more.

[City Lights]

10. George Clooney, Keith Olbermann, Jon Stewart, or Stephen Colbert. eom

[w8liftinglady]

15. THAT would be a cool party!

[Arugula Latte]

18. Good picks!

:thumbsup:

I second that emotion.

[Cabcere]

43. All of the above?

:loveya: That would be so awesome that I would probably die of awesomeness. :P :thumbsup:

[Cabcere]

51. Also...

I bet Amy Sedaris & Paul Dinello would be pretty awesome to hang out with as well. :)

[Thickasabrick]

11. Jack Nicholson

[piedmont]

12. Hugh Hefner nt

[ghostsofgiants]

13. Jason Lee.

I'd make him teach me his 360-flipping ways.

[Omphaloskepsis]

26. Good Call..

I think Rodney Mullen would be fun to hang out with too.. My #1 would be Steve Jobs. I'm not sure if he would really count as a celebrity.

[Frank Cannon]

53. Lee's a big-time Scientologist

He'd have you hooked up to the orange juice cans and exorcising Thetans before you can say "How do you do?"

[ghostsofgiants]

55. Being judgemental is awesome.

[Frank Cannon]

103. Hey, I happen to think he's a good actor and very funny.

But hang out with him? Nah.

[ghostsofgiants]

104. You're still being judgemental though.

Presuming because of his religion, however ridiculous his religion may be, that it'd make him not worth hanging out with. I've read interviews with him and such and he seems like a cool guy, who happens to share certain interests of mine.

[Frank Cannon]

106. And YOU'RE being judgmental of my judgmentalism

So what if I don't want to hang out with a dude who's paid tens--maybe hundreds--of thousands of dollars to believe in a galactic Darth-Vader-like figure named Xenu? That just doesn't spell "genius" to me.

But you're perfectly free to want to hang out with him, though. Bring your own orange juice cans and ohmmeter. Maybe you can save a couple bucks off the "clearing".

[ghostsofgiants]

108. Project much?

You know, I'd much rather hang out with a person of ANY religious stripe that isn't a jackass about it, than someone who opposes certain religions and IS a jackass about it.

[Omphaloskepsis]

112. Monkey-Boy doesn't make enough to be a Scientologist.

For now.. I will lead him. Or he will lead me. Purity. Confusion. The world works best like this.

[terrya]

14. Zach Braff

I just think it would be so cool to hang out with him.

[sakabatou]

44. Seconded

[Lost-in-FL]

16. Skinhead Britney...

:yoiks:

[grace0418]

17. David Sedaris, Jon Stewart, Neil Finn, Ewan McGregor

I should probably name some women.

[Neshanic]

40. David Sedaris, oh yes. Viggo, Diane Keaton. I love her.

[theNotoriousP.I.G.]

59. David Sedaris

and his sister Amy too.

[stuntcat]

72. me too David Sedaris!

mostly I'd just wanna listen to him :loveya:

[mitchum]

79. But you would have to stifle the giggles when it dawns on you that he sounds...

like Droopy Dog.
Hint: go easy on the weed :)

[Redstone]

81. David AND Amys Sedaris, you mean? Double your fun!

Redstone

[grace0418]

101. It's true I adore her too. I met David once and he thought he knew me. If I could

think faster on my feet maybe I could've milked that to get his phone number or something. I figured, being Greek, I probably looked like a relative of his.

I just wish I could be friends with him. Not because he's rich or famous or anything. Just because I think he would so perfectly fit into my circle of loved ones. I think we would really get each other. I'd want him to live nearby so he could come over and sit in my kitchen while I cooked dinner and we could tell each other absurd little stories and laugh ourselves silly.

[KitchenWitch]

19. Bonnie Raitt

Anthony Perkins
Rita Moreno
Whoopie Goldberg

[Kat45]

20. Janeane Garafolo

I could just picture hanging out with her, sitting on the stoop, drinking beers and making fun of most of the people walking by.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

21. Kiefer Sutherland or Samuel L. Jackson.

[DainBramaged]

22. Paul Sr, we could bust up a house or something

[Seabiscuit]

23. Angelina Jolie

Especially if I could have caught her before she met Brad.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

24. Johnny Depp.

Hands down.

[AtomicKitten]

35. absolutely

[u4ic]

25. David Suzuki

Rick Mercer, Avi Lewis.

[ghostsofgiants]

56. David Suzuki started his cross Canada tour here a few weeks ago.

But I didn't get a chance to go.

[u4ic]

60. Thanks for the heads up

He'll probably be coming here then, too. I should check on it.

I saw Avi Lewis speak here two weeks ago. That man breathes fire!

A fascinating and inspiring chap.

[ghostsofgiants]

I only know Avi from when he hosted The New Music on MuchMusic.

Though I barely remember that.

[u4ic]

64. Do you remember him from counterSpin?

The best debate show ever...he eventually left, and Carol Off took over...not very successfully, I may add.

CBC cancelled it in 2003 or 2004.

[ghostsofgiants]

65. I've never seen CounterSpin.

The name is vaguely familiar.

[auntAgonist]

27. James Gandolfini, Willie Nelson

and hmmmmmmm Sean Connery.

aA

[mark414]

28. tom waits and iggy pop

[Spider Jerusalem]

34. At the same time?

"Yeah, you know, I can smoke a cigarette. It's okay to have one, because I quit."

[mark414]

37. Do you not like the drumming on my albums?

Is something wrong with the drums?

[Heidi]

29. Tom Robinson.

http://www.tomrobinson.com/

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHG2LJGfEdw

[chknltl]

30. Benjamin Franklin

...only I would never introduce him to any of my lady friends.

[Auggie]

32. Robin Williams

[jarab]

91. Yes!

...O...

[jobycom]

33. Susan Sarandon, Anthony Bourdain, and Tom Petty.

[martymar64]

36. I once hung out with Bill Paxton for about a half hour

It was at the bowling alley bay on Pico across from the Santa Monica Civic. We were waiting for Joe Bob Briggs to show up to a book signing at Vidiots. He was a very nice down to earth guy.

[mvd]

38. Drew Barrymore seems like she would be..

very fun and uplifting to talk to.

[Wapsie B]

41. Jenna Jameson.

I had to. Couldn't help myself. :evilgrin:

[libnnc]

42. Two that are on my list are Brits and I have mad crushes on both

Dawn French


and Jennifer Saunders


Tell me they wouldn't make me pee my panties laughing....

[GoneOffShore]

45. Great photo of Dawn French

add her husband Lenny Henry and Tony Bourdain and Joanna Lumley and you've great a great fivesome to have dinner with.

[mvd]

46. Oh of course there are others, including my crushes, but..

I was thinking that for a good little chat, there's not much better than Drew. Even though I can't really see Drew as my girlfriend.

[Reverend_Smitty]

49. I've been watching a lot of AbFab lately...

and I agree French and Saunders would be a bunch of fun to hang out with

[u4ic]

96. Great choices!

:thumbsup:

[grace0418]

102. Ooooooh, good one! I love them both too! When you have them over for

dinner can I come too? I'll bring something yummy!

[Elidor]

47. Chris Walken n/t

[regnaD kciN]

107. I hope...

...you have enough cowbell! ;-)

[mockmonkey]

48. Nathan Lane n/t

[Bzzzz]

50. Sean Connery...

this man still looks good in a kilt! :evilgrin:

[AspenRose]

52. Chris Rock and James Spader

eom

[idgiehkt]

54. ooh, James Spader

I would love to pick that mans brain. "So are you really an asshole, or do you just always play one on tv?"

[YellowRubberDuckie]

57. I can't believe no one else said it: Big Dawg...

I want to hang out with Bill Clinton. He'd be fun as hell.
Duckie

[PassingFair]

58. Sean Penn

I think he's brave.

And he keeps getting better the older he gets!

[sce56]

61. How about Mel Gibson he throws pretty wild bar hops!

And I don't care what anybody says I liked the movie it verified to me why my ex is such a Psycho nut job she is Mayan. Not that they are all crazy but she is with out a doubt!

[JackBeck]

62. Only if

Danny DeVito was there doing Lemoncello shots.

[ghostsofgiants]

66. Yeah, sounds like you and Mel would get along well.

:eyes:

[sce56]

67. Well I don't know where you get that from but

I'm not antisemitic could not care less if they are a Jew or a Arab we are all human beings and should be treated the same for that reason. I for one don't like what the Govt of Israel has done to their neighbors and us too. Remember the USS Liberty they killed 34 sailors that day in 1967! http://www.ussliberty.org/

[ghostsofgiants]

68. Has nothing to do with Jews or Arabs...

You said "...it verified to me why my ex is such a Psycho nut job she is Mayan."

Come on, you make a broad brush statement about an entire culture (the reason she's crazy is because she's Mayan).

But then you said "Not that they are all crazy but she is with out a doubt!"

How exactly does that work? You say she's crazy because she's Mayan...but then automatically try to cover your ass by saying not all Mayans are crazy. Logically then, if not all Mayans are crazy, there's nothing inherent to being a Mayan that makes a person crazy, so being Mayan ISN'T the reason she's crazy.

[taterguy]

63. Amy Adams

Anyone who saved Ricky Bobby must be pretty fucking cool

[mitchum]

69. Larry David

[liberal renegade]

70. Cheech Marin

[stuntcat]

71. Dolly Parton, David Sedaris

and Prince! But we wouldn't "hang out" I'd just want him to play and sing for me :loveya: (and maybe snuggle a little :blush:)

[stuntcat]

97. also William Shatner!

that's all for now

[flvegan]

73. The Beastie Boys.

One, or all.

[judaspriestess]

74. Sandra Bullock

I love her and she's pretty funny.

[Downtown Hound]

75. George W. Bush

He seems like a good, straight-talkin', down to Earth Christian guy that I'd like to have a beer and barbecue with. Maybe after we knocked back a few, we could go duck hunting, Dick Cheney style. Or just sit around and watch the game. I've got plenty of pretzels.

[stuntcat]

90. me too, so I could VOMIT on him

:puke:

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

76. Hank Azaria. Something about him. I loved his dramatic turn in "Shattered Glass" and love his alter

egos on The Simpsons.

He just seems like he'd be great to hang out with. :-)





MKJ

edited to add his pic.

[mitchum]

77. If they weren't dead, it would be Robert Mitchum and Rodney Dangerfied

since we all shared certain habits

[Redstone]

80. Which celebrities like to hang out and smoke and drink and swear and eat BBQ and

tater salad and coleslaw and deviled eggs and pick and grin and laugh until their cheekbones hurt?

I don't know much about celebrities, so if you guys could suggest a list of any celebs who fit into that category, they'd all of 'em be welcome to come on over and hang out for a weekend.

Redstone

[mitchum]

92. If you had included take pills and left out pick all while staying in bed...

I would suggested the late Anna Nicole Smith. When I heard about her pasttimes a few years ago, my response was ,"Well, who the hell am I to judge her?"

[Redstone]

94. Hell, she must have been SOME fun. and I judege nobody for their choice of

how to live their lives.

Except rightwing assholes, of course. Their choices are ALWAYS wrong.

Redstone

[mitchum]

95. I agree. She sounded like a hell of a lot of fun...

and I always argued that she earned that money alot than his heirs did.

[GenDem]

82. Ellen DeGeneres

She seems like such an easy going , down to earth, and extremely funny person. I would love to hang with her.

[Cabcere]

83. Any of the Monty Python guys.

:D I love 'em all, although Graham Chapman was probably my favorite...and from what I hear, he was crazy to hang out with (especially in his drinking days, but even after that). :crazy:

[NNadir]

84. Stephen Colbert.

[Cobalt-60]

85. Tommy Chong

I would just my herb wouldn't look too cr*ppy next to his!

[Shell Beau]

86. Willie Nelson, Bonnie Rait,

Jennifer Aniston, Matthew McConaughey (and not just because he may be the finest man ever born either), Jack Nicholson, Tom Cruise (:rofl: kidding), so many. They are all mostly liberal so you know they are all probably cool!!!

[hellbound-liberal]

105. Two excellent choices! Love them both! I'd add Neil Young out of respect for his artistry over the

years. Musicians and comedians were always my favorite celebrities. George Carlin would have to be my choice of comedians since I've been listening to him since Class Clown and he is one of the most BRILLIANT entertainers around.

[bicentennial_baby]

87. Anthony Bourdain

:D

[sendero]

89. Brian Eno..

... but if he's busy (and he always is), I'd settle for Uma Thurman :)

[mitchum]

93. But They're dating!

Not really...but he did hook Julie Christie back in the 70s. So, it's possible.

[MountainLaurel]

98. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner

He's a good progressive, and she and I could chat about being band geeks in WV.

[enigmatic]

99. The J&H Productions Guy

http://timharrod.com/jhhome.html

[swag]

100. Gore Vidal.

I wouldn't have to say a word and I'd be entertained nonstop.

[Mad_Dem_X]

109. Susan Saradon and Jake Gyllenhaal

For different reasons, of course.

[Rambis]

110. John Cusack

We almost got to one night when visiting Carleton College in MN but he couldn't make it.

[Chan790]

113. All my celebs are writers.

but a dinner with Peter Singer, Howard Zinn, Steve Almond, and Ismael Beah would be awesome...that'd be one hell of a dinner conversation.

[NewJeffCT]

114. Natalie Portman - smart, liberal and gorgeous

[mvd]

117. Completely agree

:thumbsup:

[wildhorses]

115. paula deene, kevin and kyra, courtney and david

willie nelson, timothy b. schmidt, tom selleck...

[Liberalynn]

116. Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Robert Redford,

Julian Mcmahon, Curtis Stone (Take Home Chef), Vern Yip (so he can decorate my House), Jill Hennessy.

[mvd]

118. Gore would be a good choice

He's supposedly more social than he seems on camera. I'd like to meet two of my idols, too: Kucinich and Ted Kennedy.

[Liberalynn]

119. Ted Kennedy would be great too.

I'd like to talk to him about health care and Gore more about the enviroment.
