Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?
Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

Kylie Minogue
I was picking up a few things in the Virgin Megastore in Times Square, New York City. The place was ridiculously crowded, so I figured it was one of their celebrity signing whatevers.
Having made my purchases, I ninja'd my way to the back of the crowd, and asked a record store employee who the honored guest was.
"Kylie Minogue."
"Oh, that 'Locomotion' chick? She sucks canal water," I wittily replied.
The employee started laughing, but gagged it back. I followed his gaze and realized that the autograph table was right behind me, and she was glaring in my direction, having heard every word.
I smiled sweetly, and added "Sorry, but you do." I then made a hasty retreat before the security guys made it for me.
