The best site for this is www.findadeath.com.  I promise you that you could spend days at that site looking up the deaths of celebrities and their final moments.  They have a lot of pictures too.

Ronnie Corbett and Daniel Radcliffe on Extras were hilarious - but it also has to be Dean Gaffney - I was wetting myself during his first trial, and esp when he was screaming 'Oh please, oh please,' I couldn't exactly figure out who the 'oh please's' were aimed at, and what about David Gest and his maid Vaginica Semen and Albino Heights, was it?- also Lauren on the Catherine Tate show were she does the whole Am I bothered routine, but half in French - it was priceless!!!\n\nSorry, obviously can't make up my mind, they were all really REALLY funny

In countries where jury trials are common, juries are often seen as an important check against state power. Many also believe that a jury is likely to provide a more sympathetic hearing, or a fairer one, to a party who is not part of the government, or other establishment interest than would representatives of the state.\n\nIn the United States, because jury trials tend to be high profile, the general public tends to overestimate the frequency of jury trials; the vast majority of cases are in fact settled by plea bargain which removes the need for a jury trial.

I have met quite a few famous people.\n\nPresident Clinton - very charismatic\nQueen Noor - drop dead gorgeous\nBen Kingsley - ultra-cool\nMichael Moore - incredibly down-to-earth\nAl Franken - hilarious\n\nMost famous people are actually pretty normal.

No, but I had one filed on me, along with a Psyd, my supervisor and the state.  Never went to trial!\n\nI sat on a jury in a civil case.

Oprah.  Nah, she's got a good thing going.  She probably wouldn't be taken seriously enough to be elected.  However, stranger things have happened.  An actor was president, & celebrities always get elected to smaller offices like governor, mayor, etc.  \n\nOk, so I guess I don't know.  lol

every time a new wittiness is called switch seats with another juror...\n\nsit with your back to the judge for an hour...\n\nsit in the audience for a day to see how the court room looks from another prospective..\n\norder pizza and have it delivered an hour after the trial starts...\n\ntake a cell phone call...\n\ntake a walkie-talkie call...\n\nhit on the defense attorney or paralegals...\n\npretend you have torrents...\n\nthe next day pretend you have amnesia...\n\neat asparagus, kimchee, wings, and beer for dinner so \n\neveryone can enjoy the a*s flute....\n\nshow up with a cooler of beer and a portable grill...(grillin n chillin)..\n\nread a news paper while the trial is going on...\n\nkeep asking the judge, witnesses, and attorneys questions...\n\nlisten to your Ipod...\n\nwatch a movie...\n\nevery time an attorney asks a question jump to your feet and shout 'AMEN!' and 'CAN I GET A WITNESS!!' switch attorneys every day...\n\ntell the judge you have a drug habit and need to be paid three times more than the other jurors...\n\nkeep giving the bailiff notes for everyone in the court telling them neat things like, their car just got towed, their house is on fire, they have just been kidnapped, there is a bomb in the building(works best for the Muslim trials), there is a stain on their pants, there is something in their teeth...

I met a two people so far and both are "big" celebrities in my book. I met Billy Idol and hung out with him for 3 hours and I met Long Duk Dong from Sixteen Candles on Melrose Avenue. Very cool & unique individuals!

LMAO!! Not only is it hard to believe the stupidity of the people who instigate these lawsuits-but it makes me wonder how brain dead you have to be to be a juror that allows these idiots to win these cases!

We go to Disneyland frequently and we've seen a bunch of different celebrities there.  We saw Jason Alexander with his family, Melanie Griffith, Antonio Banderas, James Spader, Tommy Lasorda (two different times), Sharon Lawrence (the most humble and impressive), Kobe Bryant, John Ritter and his T.V. family (three weeks before he passed away), Dick Van Dyke, Marie Osmond, Tia & Tamara Mowry, Gov. of CA Gray Davis, Jean Claude Van Damme, the kid from "The Kid," and David Hasslehoff.  I've also met Amy Grant, Michael W Smith, Point of Grace, Steven Curtis Chapman, prior to their concerts.  We met the guy from Survivor the first season - Joel.  I also saw Phyllis Diller at LAX.
