Not only is Massachusetts home to breathtaking views, history, artistic culture and some of the best sports teams in the world, but hundreds of notable celebrities were born in the Bay State.
Over the years I have met many celebrities. I had the pleasure of meeting well-known actors like Ernie Hudson in Springfield, Massachusetts at one of the major Scare-A-Con conventions. I also interviewed Bret Michales of Poison on the radio and later shared the stage with him at the Mass Mutual Center. I met wrestling legend Jerry “The King” Lawler in Pittsfield at one of the Big Time Wrestling events. I even passed actress Claire Danes in a bar in Williamstown without knowing it.
It was fun meeting celebrities and having photos taken with them. Most of those I met were very friendly to me and never showed an arrogant attitude or an arrogant personality. As I mentioned before, Massachusetts was a breeding ground for many movie stars. While many of them have left the state, there have also been times when some have returned to the Bay State for various reasons. These names include Elizabeth Banks, Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon, to name a few.
