Guess who''s sitting across the aisle from me?

[April20]

Anderson Cooper! He''s sleeping. I kinda wanna reach over and touch him just cause. He''s got on white socks with dark jeans and I''m not loving that.

He''s not quite as exciting as when I saw Tim Gunn a couple months ago flying out of LGA, but it appears me and LGA are good for celebrity sightings. And this is even better because he''s stuck on a plane. With me.

Oh, and he''s really, really pale. Dude needs some sun.

 

[somethingshiny]

I think Anderson Cooper''s kinda sexy.


Don''t touch him though!! No touching strangers even if you do know them from tv! But, perhaps you could get up to use the restroom and bump him?!?

 

[AprilBaby]

So is he has handsome in person as on TV???? He seems really nice too!
My sister sat next to Gordon Ramsey on a flight to England and said he was charming to the flight crew.

Do you have a camera phone? We''re gonna need you to turn off the shutter sound and snap a pic for us.

 

[that_someone_special]

Pale is the new tan!!

 

[April20]

He is kind of hot! Even with all the paleness. I like the silver fox looki!

Our plane was delayed for a while- some computer not working or something. He was going to get off the plane and stood up to get his bag out of the overhead. His pants are a little loose and we might have seen most of the top half of his butt. Not as thrilling as I had hoped.

 

[elrohwen]

That's awesome!! I love Anderson Cooper.

I sat next to Diane Sawyer once. Well, we were supposed to sit next to each other, but I switched with her assistant so they could work, so I was across the aisle (still next to her I guess). Then she slept the whole time instead of working

Her assistant had the cutest shoes ever!

I was also on a flight with Tom Brokaw once. There were only about 10 of us on a really little plane.

eta: All of my sights were from Cleveland to LGA, mostly because I flew that route a few times a month.

Oh, and Diane Sawyer had a guy meet her at the gate. Do they give out special passes for the kind of stuff so you can get through security without a boarding pass?

Okay, so I totally put my phone on silent and then couldn''t decide if the level of light on the plane would cause a flash and bust me. Seriously. Thought this through. Tried to do it on the sly. Can''t figure out how to do it without looking like a sneaking idiot.

 

[iheartscience]

ZOMG I would have to lean over and kiss him on the mouth while he was sleeping. Hahaha okay, I probably wouldn''t, but I would definitely think about it! He is a DREAM BOAT.

 

[April20]

Okay ya''ll. Took a picture with my camera. And the FLASH went off. Thank God he didn''t wake up or I would have DIED.

I''m not really into muscles, but for Anderson, I''d make an exception.

 

[charbie]

Totally cracking me UP right now! I was about to say something about "the silver fox" but u beat me to it!
So a good friend of mine from college actually is friends with him! This guy from college is gay, and knew all of the "cloested" gay celebs.

 

[Indylady]

He is such a cutie!! I love Anderson Cooper.

 

[that_someone_special]

THe flash went off? hahahahaha Thanks for taking one for the team though!

 

[BeachRunner]

April, you are hilarious! The flash went off!?

+1 for thinking Anderson Cooper is a very handsome man!

 

[Kaleigh]

Thanks for the pic April, too funny the flash went off. I am a huge fan of Anderson Cooper, he''s a great guy.

 

[April20]

I tell ya, THIS is what WiFi on planes was invented for.

 

[CJ2008]

his hair looks so...short...is it like that all around? (I haven''t seen him recently...)

 

[April20]

Yep. His cropped short all over and it''s the only hair I can see on him. Okay, okay, like I''m seeing all of him. But his arms has almost ZERO hair.

I''m thinking I''ll go to the bathroom in the front of the plane and accidentally fall in his lap.

[luckystar112]

This thread is hilarious! Thanks for snapping a pic April20!

 

[gemgirl]

April, you're such a hoot! Thanks for the pic though. I'd watch and listen to him read the phone book

.

Lucky you. On a flight from LA to NY, I was sitting directly in front of Mike Wallace.

 

[Gailey]

I adore Anderson Cooper and I can't belive less than 30 seconds before seeing this thread I had just finished posting as much in Kenny's thread about TV personalities.

You lucky girl!

 

[somethingshiny]

Don''t you have to pee yet? Running water, babbling brooks, trickling creeks, waterfalls for gods sake! Could you just get up and nudge him already?!?!

Oh, and if your phone happens to be in your hand while you''re "falling" into his lap, please take another pic...

 

[Should Be Studying]

I love Anderson Cooper! Normally I wouldn''t want to meet celebrities, but he seems so sweet and smart. That picture is so funny...good thing he didn''t wake up to the flash!

 

[onedrop]

I really like Anderson Cooper!! That is hilarious that you got a pic of him w/ your phone. You are crazy!!! But in a good way...and thanks for sharing with us!

 

[AprilBaby]

Just curious...are you in coach or 1st class??? It looks like coach in the picture.

 

[lilyfoot]

Awesome! I think he''s really cute, so I''m totally jealous right now
