As a bellman and Valet in Vegas:
Michael Jordan
David Spade
Rob Lowe
Backstreet Boys
N sync
Eve
Jay Z
Linkin Park
Iron Maiden
Cedric the entertainer
Steve Harvey
Nick Lachey and 98 degree's
Oscar DeLahoya
Mike Tyson
Seth from Crazy Town
Vertical Horizon
Tiger Woods
Brad Pitt
Julia Roberts (was an extra in Oceans 11)
Andy Garcia
Many porn stars
Christina Aguillara
Dweezil Zappa
Lisa Loeb
Lennox Lewis
Sting from WWF
Scott Weilland
Gwen Stefani
Gavin Rossdale
Basically all of No Doubt
Anthony Keidis
Many Saudi Princes
George H. W. Bush
SheDaisy
Pauly Shore
Gene Simmons (dude is tall!) Cool as hell.
Jennifer Love Hewitt
Enrique Iglesias
Alot of very wealthy people from around the world.
Anyways, that's as many as I can remember right now. When i Checked out N'Sync they were all teenage boys and when I came in the room there was McDonalds bags everywhere and Justin Timberlake was farting on one of the other dudes
Most were pretty cool and some were complete dicks. I would say that the biggest assholes I ever dealt with are wealthy men from Mexico City. They treat any "commoners" like slaves.
You judge that by the size of the tip Alot of them would literally have 100's of thousands of chips laying everywhere and straight stiff you and treat you like shit at the same time.

Hehe, he was only a mortal in the presence of a God. He got really pissed that I was picking on him. For a time I would choose one unlucky player and only hunt that person, I would not shoot at all until I found him. I was a real jackass griefer.
Before he left the game he asked my name and then he told me his. I thought he was lying so I starting treating him like a bitch again, talking smack and fragging him almost as soon as he would spawn.
Few weeks later he was on the David Letterman show promoting Mrs. Doubtfire and talked about our game together, I was floored!
Once in a while I read on a gaming site that he is still big into FPS and he kept his gaming nickname "Lumpy".
Oh I just remembered I spoke to Terry Funk (the wrestler) when I called a local Radio station and won their quiz for the day (free movie tickets). I had no idea it was Terry Funk the wrestler at the time until I got off the phone.
I seem to have a pattern of meeting famous people and not realizing it until after the event, lol

I used to worked in a electronics shop back in the early 90's and sold Hank Williams Jr a VCR.
It was a top of the line (at the time) S-VHS JVC that he saw in Playboy.
I never met her, but I also sold some surround sound stuff to Liz Claibourne's boyfriend, and installed it at thier "house". I never did get to meet her, she was out of the country.
The house was pretty damn amazing though.

I'm involved to a degree in local politics and have met quite a few national political figures. (If they count)
As far as stars only three and one is questionable.
Michael Jackson when I was a kid at the Captain EO exhbit at Epcot Center. He was wearing a lot of clothing to hide who he was and my cousin pointed it out. Being that age I went crazy and he took us aside after that part of the show. Watched the next part with them in a sectioned off area. Short encounter (thank god huh?) but I remember he was really soft spoken, wanted to know if I liked the show, and gave me an autograph.
Met John Goodman at the atlanta airport bathroom. I saw him and he started up a conversation, not really as akward as you would think pretty cool guy. I guess he figured it was better then risking having some dude look at him out of the corner of his eye.
Met Paris Hilton at a club in LA with my brother who was heavy into the scene out there. Very much drugged out, very much into herself and being the focus of attention, but she did have an pretty decent sense of humor though which was unexpected.
Thats all for me.

Met OJ Simpson at a Nextel store at 8am on a Sunday morning still drunk from the night before, we talked about football and he was kind of a dick so I told him I was "sorry" his son went to FSU (I went to the University of Miami, FSU are huge rivals).

Michael Jackson 13/14 years back, there were many securities with him, and yeah his appearance was like 50% transformed then
No real international stars.
Met Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May from Top Gear when they were at Knockhill a couple of years ago, got a few pictures with them and The Stig (the current one, white suit). Spoke to The Stig for around 15 minutes - no idea who he is.
Steven Spielberg while camping with the Scouts - we apparently set up camp near to one of his holiday homes! Ran in to him at a local restaurant. Sound guy.
Spoke to Patrick Stewart when I worked for Sky - he wanted another SkyHD box about 3 months before Sky started selling them to the public. I won't say how many he had, but he had a few before that call. I nearly died on that call, I'm a bit of a Trekkie. Fortunately my manager never listened to it
And the relatively mandatory local politicians - Gordon Brown, Alex Salmond, etc. They are all local to me so you can find them in the streets easy enough - especially when they want a little X from you.
