Helen Mirren is the only celebrity I have seen up close and personal THREE times. Sadly (for all her glorious talent she did not make MY TOP TWENTY ACTOR LIST)...but...just for weirdness sake I will tell the story. I was at a birthday party in Manhattan at Balthazar and they have those long banquettes with little tables. She and her guest were sitting right next to me and she did say "Good Evening". The next time I was sitting at Cafe' duMonde in New Orleans and she was standing behind me getting a beinet. The last time was a few months ago. I was standing on a street corner on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills and she was right next to me waiting on the light to change. She was wearing a big floppy hat and she and her friend were heading for a coffee shop. I almost told her the story and asked if I could go....but instead I crossed the light..went into the drug store and bought a Diet Dr. Pepper.
