It's not who we'd like to meet. It's who we've met. We're just cool like that. Here's some of our favorites:
RIHANNA: Admitted she didn't like "Pon de Replay" at first. Yeah, neither did we. Then we couldn't get it out of our heads for three months.
WILLIAM SHATNER: Poked fun at Trekkies with us. And actually used the phrase, "It's all good."
RHYMEFEST: Called Kanye West an asshole. In a friendly, respectful way.
HENRY ROLLINS: Said he still hasn't washed off all the slime from too many meetings with TV executives.
LUDACRIS: Got the keys to Atlanta and was bummed he couldn't use them to sneak into hot ladies' homes.
