re: What celebrities have you met? Were they nice or a jerk?

My first job out of law school was a federal clerkship in Amarillo. The year prior Oprah had been sued for defaming the beef industry in a show about mad cow disease. It was a huge case under the new "veggie libel" laws which provided a cause of action for defaming a product. It went to trial and Oprah won. She charmed the jury but in real life was a diva and a pain. Interesting footnote is that is how she met Dr. Phil. Dr Phil was a trial science consultant. His company is still operating Courtroom Science Inc in Fort Worth. Chip Babcock out of Dallas hired him and they won and the rest is history.
