In the late 70’s, while working in our shop, two men walk in and as I recognize one immediately my mind goes totally blank on his well known name. The gentleman, as he was from the golden era, realized my dilemma (my 28yr old eyes must have been in turmoil!), smoothly walked right over to me with a gentle and sincere smile on his face, offered his hand which I took in mine and said, “Louie Nye”.

my family saw Paul Giamatti sitting on a bench at a taco stand near Poipu in 2018. I think he was afraid of being recognized because any time we glanced at him he gave us a challenging death stare. I grew up in the NYC area so celebrity sightings aren’t new to me. We aren’t the type to approach and chat so the stink eye was unnecessary. We just let the man eat his taco in peace. No one else seemed to recognize him. He did look pretty rough. lol

In the late 80’s we ran into Jack Lord at the Safeway on Maui. My Mother idolized him, he let us snap a picture and gave her a hug. She was on cloud 9. We were visiting my Aunt who has resided there for over 40 years. Hoping to see her soon for her 95th birthday!

I saw Thanos aka Josh Brolin balancing a beer on a three-legged dog at the Kilauea Fish Market a couple of years ago. Keeping it Kauai-cool, I did not take any photos.
My wife and I also saw Will Smith and his family maybe 6 or so years ago now at the old Common Grounds in Kilauea.
Ben Stiller would sometimes be seen biking in decked-out road gear, although it’s been a while since there’s been that sighting.
Always fun to see someone famous just being a normal human being. Aren’t we all?
