I am inspired by Lyndsie...
I am not ashamed that I am hopelessly and embarrasingly addicted to celebrities...
When we were in NYC we went to see "Chicago" and Wayne Brady was in it (from Whose Line Is It Anyway?) and I waited in line after to get his autograph (Scott thought I was ridiculous) but he dutifully held the camera for a picture. Did I mention that we were the only ones in line that was under the age of 65? And Scott and our friend were the only 2 males in line? Anyway, when I got up there to Mr. Brady my neck had turned 15 shades of red and he was like, "Did you enjoy the show?" "Uh-huh." "Do you like NYC?" "Uh-huh." "Do you want my autograph?" "Uh-huh." (Because I was still holding the program and had not handed it to him. I was just standing there just staring at him.) And on and on - you get the picture. The picture Scott took of me and WAYNE - I look like a deer in the headlights. I was so excited, I got on the phone to my sister and was like screaming telling her about it and she is like, "WHO? I don't think I know who that is." Boy, that did not make me happy - you want someone to know who you are talking about and be ENVIOUS! I called my mom, same situation, "I don't know who that is." Talk about getting your bubble burst. Anyway, I'm going to see if I can find the picture for your viewing pleasure (or laughter)!!!

And who did you say HE is? I have seen him on a few commercials and thought, gee, he is lucky, he had his picture made with CHRISTY BENSON!! I am not impressed by who he is, but by who you are!! Good picture, anyway.

HAAH- I love IT- I haven't seen a celebrity yet- well I SWEAR I saw Howard Stern once but who cares about him anyway :) I would have been the same way- that's so funny that nobody knew who he was!

Christy, I would have been excited for you if you had called me. I LOVE Wayne Brady. He's my favourite on that show. At least you had the courage to go up to him. I am terrified to talk to them. When I met Linda Hamilton I couldn't muster an "uh-huh". I just grinned like a fool.

He is my favorite too. He always has me in stitches and he has an amazing voice. He looks pretty happy to be getting his photo taken with you! Great shots!
