I've had a few brushes with celebrity...I was at a friend's house when Sasha (big UK DJ, plays in Ibiza and used to play at Renaissance) played a private set at his place a few years ago when he was in Sydney. Got to meet the bloke, have a chat and party with him.
I used to see Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman quite a few times when he was married to Nicole, they used to have breakfast and have a run at Watson's Bay and we'd see them around a lot - their kids went to the same school as a friend of my sister's. Still see Nicole and Antonia now and then.
I've met Russell Crowe in the lift at the W Hotel where my girlfriend Taryn is staying a few times, he lives in the penthouse (which takes up the entire top floor).
I met and had a drink with Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss at Goodbar when they was filming Matrix I here in Sydney as I know the owner of Goodbar. I also met Bono from U2 in the toilets
at the same club when U2 came here in the early 90s. I was still at uni and he was taking a leak next to me.
During the end of the Sydney Olympics I ended up at Maurice Greene's private party at Establishment nightclub as my girlfriend at the time worked there and got the bouncers to let me and a couple of friends in. Got to shake his hand.
Sydney can be a small world when it comes to the nightlife that counts.
When I was in LA once I was in a club called the Roxy and I ended up at the bar with Christina Applegate, back when she was still in Married With Children. Absolute babe. [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]
