Famous people over for dinner

[NZsarge]

Heard this question on the radio this morning. If you could have three famous people over for dinner who would they be? Me... Michael Schumacher, Valentino Rossi and Sting

[Grub]

Adolf Hitler, Idi Amin & Saddam Hussein so I could look true evil in the eye as I served the Digitalis Casserole

[Swoop]

Do they know how to wash the dishes properly???

"Rossi, cook me some eggs bitch!"
"Shumacher - get me a beer and be quick about it!"

[Trudes]

Allan Langer; Jeremy Wells; Eric Clapton.

[Grub]

Jeremy Wells.

You're a sick woman :)

A little more on-topic, who I would have over is a hard one indeed. Famous people by definition are boring and more interested in their public image than reality ... quick-think list would be all kiwi

1) Stephen Tindall 2) Ralph Norris (two of the nicest and humble guys you could meet, yet they have achieved so much) 3) Maybe Ed Hillary because he's so anti-bullshit or Grant Dalton for teh same reason

[Str8 Jacket]

Dont know about 3 but I'd love to have Dave Chapelle and Ricky Gervais over for dinner!

[Trudes]

You're a sick woman :)
That's what Nige keeps telling me....:mellow:

Don't care what dinner would be but dessert would involve a lot of chocolate sauce, whipped cream and the odd strawberry.

I'd have Hannibal Lector for dinner. It's PAYBACK TIME muthaf**ker!

I'd have some bikers come over, that would be far more interesting.

[BarBender]

I'd have some bikers come over, that would be far more interesting.

Agreed.
More chance of me staying awake at the dinner table.

[Skyryder]

Me I'd go for

Leonardo da Vinci. as the ultimate Renaissance man

Alexander the Great for a drinking compnion

Jesus.............in case we run out of wine.

Skyryder

[750Y]

dai henwood, david bain & brian tamaki

[Harry33]

I'd have Christopher Walken, Edward Norton and Al Pacino if it was guys just hanging out.

If it was me and three woman..mmm Halle Berry, Rhona Mitra and Julianna Margulies. Thank God no one said pornstar actresses.

[Skyryder]

Those that are alive today.


New Zealanders


Rodger Douglas. To tell him how wrong he was

Margaret Mahy. A woman who I much admire, not so much for her dress sense but that she wears what she likes. One of the true unsung heroes that told the establishment to go fuck itself without getting political. A rare talent indeed.

Graham Henry only if we fail in the World Cup. The arsehoe lost Cant the Ranfurly Shield. He'd get cold porridge along with Douglas.

Me Marg would be eating Pheasent served with an orang and coffee sauce.



Skyryder.

[TOTO]

Ewen Mcgregor
Charlie Boreman
Valentino Rossi

would be my three guests.

[Usarka]

Ewen Mcgregor
Charlie Boreman
Valentino Rossi

wou;ld be my three guests.

Three of the incarnations of Doctor Who so they could all get in their TARDIS' and go back in time to dredge up more threads! bahahahaha

[Big Dave]

Sorry - I'm busy, can't make it.

[Skyryder]

Sorry - I'm busy, can't make it.


Bit late for dinner. It was on the 14 June 2007.:bash::bash:


But we could always have another with different guests.





Skyryder

[Big Dave]

I doesn't matter about the date - I'm still busy.

[buellbabe]

Sam Elliot
David Boreanz
Rutger Hauer

[Boob Johnson]

Rutger Hauer
??? wtf?

Each to their own I guess :shutup:



Winston Churchill
Bernard Montgomery
Erwin Rommel

[Mikkel]

Nevermind how's coming :whocares: - what are we having? :innocent:


Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler and Brian May.

With their guitars, of course.

Would be a good bunch...


Oh yeah! Forget Hendrix, Clapton, Page, Van Halen or Santana - Knopfler is king. Dunno about having him to dinner but his music is tops. Wonder what he's up to these days?

His solo career is going quite well I believe. Personally I really like his 'Sailing to Philadelphia' album. He holds a degree (doctorate? I can't remember) in American history, something that shines through in quite a few of his songs - e.g. Telegraph Road.


A fun combo would be:
Nietzsche
Jesus
The pope

For a real mother of a blowout:
Dionysos
Aphrodite
Hera

[vifferman]

Man, some of you choose celebrities that would be very boring to have to dinner. :blink:
I'd have Pope Palpatine, so I could wind him up about his role in the Star Wars movies. Then I'd kick him out and have a proper guest.
Mebbe Richard Branson - he must have some interesting stories.

Guest Number two - please enter and sign in!
Look - it's Robin Williams. Robin - are you the entertainment for tonight? Just don't make us snort mashed potatoes out our noses, please. :lol:

And Guest Number Three (3) is ... (wait for it).... [gives me some time to think].....
um.....



er.....



Have to be female, I think....

Um....


Oh yeah - Helena Bonham-Carter. She'll do. Seems to have a few brains, and doesn't look too ugly.

[EJK]

God
Jesus
and Peter

:innocent:

Can I bring 11 more guests?

Simon
John
etc... :lol:

[puddytat]

Maynard from TOOL
Billy Bragg
Dalai Lama

[007XX]

Angelina Jolie
Richard Branson
Anthony Hopkins

[RC1]

Stephen Hopkins

[Mikkel]

I hope not - I've heard he's got terrible table manners.

[RC1]

just put a bib on him :drool:

[007XX]

who is this ? do you mean hawkins?

Oh crap...going blonde again :pinch:

I meant Anthony Hopkins...but Hawkins would be 4th if I could have him over. I'd be just worried a little about not being smart enough to carry out a conversation with him :o

[Mikkel]

Don't be - he actually can't talk I believe...

He's suffering from advanced amyotropic lateral schlerosis - about the nastiest disease that is out there IMHO.

[007XX]

Don't be - he actually can't talk I believe...

[Gubb]

Nathan Gray (Boysetsfire Vocalist)
John Safran (Aussie Legend. YouTube him. Now.)
Dylan Moran

Adolf Hitler, Genghis Kahn and Pol Pot.

I'd like to ask them one question whilst munching a morsel of marinated mutant; "Why were you so lenient?"

[Skyryder]

I doesn't matter about the date - I'm still busy.


Robert Capa………………….Death of a Loyalist Militiaman.


Steve McCurry………………Afghan girl.


Jerry Uelsmann……………….Surrealism.


Both Capa and McCurry would be entertaining. I'm a fan of Uelsmann's work.


Skyryder

[ynot slow]

Eric Clapton,Bob Seger,and Lance Armstrong.

NZ people Steve Gurney,A.J.Hackett,Colin Meads.

[Sollyboy]

Benazir Bhutto bless her and Randy Mamola , but Id trade both of them for just one more dinner with my gran ,make the most of them while they here folks

Alive
1 Maynard keenan (An incredible voice and a fasincating mind)
2 Dalai Lama (A beautiful person, hopefully send me on my way to enlightenment :clap:)

Dead
1 Socrates (make me think for myself after being spoonfed at uni for the past 5 years)
2 Hunter Thompson (Crazy mutha fucka)

[BiK3RChiK]

Billy connolly



You might be surprised, Martybabe! My sister has met and talked to Billy for a bit and he is a right decent chap, from what I hear. Her kids were impressed too.... I think he was missing his family. Filming away on sets must be a real PITA sometimes. This was at one of your local supermarkets in the Naki! Good stuff, Billy:2thumbsup

Sounds a bit daft but his world tour of NZ dvd, was a major contributor to our decision to holiday and ultimately move here.

I'd like to have him to dinner to thank him for the titters over the years and if I ever see him in Pak n save NP, invite him I wil. :yes:

[fire eyes]

LIVING:
Queen Rania of Jordan - Womens Empowerment
Bob Proctor - Mentor/Life Coach
Dr Mehmet Oz - Cardiothoracic Surgeon/Energy Medicine

I'm sorry, but "beautiful people" don't pretend to be gods. He's a con-artist IMHO, the worlds ultimate free-loader.

Keith Floyd (he's cooking)
Michael Parkinson
Billy Connolly

[dipshit]

I've actually been lucky enough to have had dinner with some interesting people in a particular field I'm interested in.


John Dobson... ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dobson_(astronomer) )
He actually stayed at my place for a couple of days.


Steven Beckwith... the director of the Space Telescope Science Institute (Hubble telescope) who decided to take the Hubble deep field shot even though everybody else said he was nuts for imaging a spot of "nothing"... and ended up making one of the most significant images to our understanding of the universe to date.


Had dinner with one of the guys running the Cassini–Huygens probe that is exploring Saturn and its moons close-up.


Plus a NASA scientist who's job is to find life on another planet somewhere.


Not famous people like Bono or Milli Vanilli... but interesting to have dinner with and talk to none the less.
