Have you ever met or seen a famous person?
Jackie Speier (District 8 state senator). Her daughter does ballet with the Peninsula Ballet Company and my husband is treasurer. I see Jackie at parties, after parties. She’s a generous, warm person.Jeannine Kaiser

I met Gerard Depardieu. I talked to him at a book signing. It was an authorized biography and both the author and he were there. He went crazy over my then-3-year-old daughter. In person he looked unbelievable. On film he’s so heavy and has a huge nose. But he looked incredible. I can see why he’s a star. He had a real physical presence.

I ran into Rob Lowe in the movie theater in Santa Barbara. It was around 1996, I would say. He looked like a nice guy.

I keep running into Prince. The first time, I was on a morning show on Live 105 and he was doing a show for us. The second encounter was in San Jose (HP Pavilion). We were near the tour bus and he came to talk to us. We got into a spiritual conversation. He’s a Jehovah’s Witness, and he gave me a Watchtower. The third time was a couple of weeks ago. I was in Las Vegas and he walked by with friends.

I saw Clint Eastwood one time at the Pebble Beach Golf Tournament, and Bill Murray. It was last year, 2005. I talked to Clint Eastwood’s wife, Dina, she was right next to me. She was gorgeous and very nice. We talked about the weather.
