My mum always goes on about how she remembers Chris de Burgh as a busker on the streets of Dublin. He used to sit in the doorways and people would step over him without taking any notice of his music.

Not sure I would call any of these famous but have worked with:

300 Richest Person in UK
Former Director General of BBC
A girl that was an actress in a Harry Potter film and Vanity Fair.

Also work with the supposed richest woman in Europe and but am yet to meet her face to face.

Incredibly, I possibly have the best claim to fame so far. In Sydney I used to work with Flame from Australian Gladiators



She's not so steroidy now, and was actually quite fit in an Amazonian, I'd-rip-you-apart-but-you'd-love-it sort of a way.

Despite my asking her out every day for 3 months she just kept telling me to go away. But she did lift me up and threaten to slam dunk me once. Which was cool.

Women eh?

Haven’t actually worked with anyone famous as such but many year’s ago whilst employed by BAA Security at Heathrow Airport I encountered and met a variety of celebrities such as Wolf (from gladiators), a young Lindsay Lohan, the Fiddler himself Michael Jackson, Mel B (spice girls) & Kate Moss!
Are they classed as famous if you have to explain who they are?

Yeah, Stelios. His IT advisor was a Brit. Used to say "yeah" after every sentence. Very annoying.

I do voluntary work at a youth centre, one of the other parents/volunteers is a former catwalk supermodel from the 80's and early 90's who now does work for Clarins (amongst others).
Does that count?
