Jane Goodall - Jayne Mansfield - Tony Curtis - Jack Lemmon - Fabio - Jay Adams - Sally Field - Bea Arthur - Lauren Tewes - Ray Charles - that come to mind.
Tony Curtis was really gorgeous.

Almost all the famous science fiction authors and artists of the 1980-2010 period because I went to many science fiction conventions -- at parties with Michael Whelan, Isaac Asimov, Jerry Pournelle, Robert Silverberg, Robert Asprin (and his wife, Lynn Abbey), Mercedes Lackey and her husband Larry Dixon, had a couple of nice chats with Harlan Ellison (and went out to dinner with him and a bunch of folks), had breakfast and a chat with Terry Pratchett, long late night with Peter Beagle ("The Last Unicorn"), Phil Foglio ("Girl Geek" web comic), Larry Niven, Andrew Offutt, Reed Waller ("Omaha the Cat Dancer) and many other indie comics artists and authors...
(etc, etc, etc.) Didn't interact much with media folks, though I did meet one of the Lone Gunmen (Byers) (chat and dinner) and shook Leonard Nimoy's hand. Oh, and got a "nanosecond" from the legendary Admiral Grace Murray Hopper. I still go to sf cons (smaller ones, where you can actually chat with the guests in the bar) and still meet interesting folks.
Presidents, Governors, Texas Rangers, One time movie stars, Ambassadors and embassy staff, under secretary of state, and Congress critters but the one I had the most fun with was Buzz Aldrin when I flew him to Washington D.C.

I've done a lot of design work for a few different famous rappers and musicians, the most famous of them is probably Jelly Roll and Keke Palmer. I've met a lot of well known artists in passing, but there's only a small handful I'd say I personally know. A couple I'd genuinely call my friends. For the most part though, it's strictly business, and it's better kept that way. If your goal is to make friends just so you can say you know somebody, you'll likely get taken advantage of.
