No need to name names, but how did it go?
I just had one–best guest ever. Didn’t meet him/her–because I offered privacy above all–but it was like this person was never even here (though I know they were.)
Anyone else have good/bad stories?
We hosted the adult child of a famous person. The guest was lovely, polite, appreciative and great to have around.
I think the best way to keep the benefits of a famous guest is to keep their stay private. I’m sure they value that highly.
Not super duper famous but we have had one actor/dancer coming through on a national tour as well as one America’s Idol contestant. I met them when they checked in, had no issues with either then left them alone. One was a two day booking, one was for 9 days.
I wish I had a fun story for you. I will admit to lurking their social media on the offshot of seeing a pic of my place but no.

Not yet. I’ve had several who want to be: aspiring filmmakers, actors, comedians, TV broadcast personalities who were passing through on their way to LA. So maybe I’ll have a “I hosted them before they were famous” story eventually. They’ve all been fantastic guests. I had a former Atlanta Falcons cheerleader trying to hit the big time. Another wants to be a comic/actor/sports broadcaster. He was very friendly, we chatted and he did take a selfie of the two of us and put it on his facebook. We were facebook friends awhile and exchanged a few jibes there about our fantasy football teams but at some point he unfriended me. He probably saw one of my vile anti-Trump rants. LOL.

I think the closest I’ve come is my cleaning lady was cleaning and doing the laundry for a famous person’s son for a while. She said he was very nice and smoked pot. Not exactly tabloid material. 
Alright since no names were involved.
One of my sort of famous people did contact me two days into tha stay to say my k cup machine was broken. I appologized and brought him a new one within 20 minutes. He then wrote me to explain he was sorry. the first one worked fine he simply had not read the directions. A bit facepalmy but really not that bad. He was more than a little embarrased.
What is this? Famous but shouldn’t be? Isn’t as famous as they think they are?

We havr had a few. All were great. Had a similar incident as @Wenchkin. Famous person said Dyson fan was broken, immediately bought a new one, new one was never opened and famous person admitted to just not plugging it in.

Incorrect words use due to not being properly caffinated. I had intended to write sort of. Pseudo is harsh in a way not intended. I should fix that.
LOL. Okay. I thought maybe it was a new hipster term I didn’t know.

I had a famous person/historical political person on vacation with her grand children. She was horrible. Treated me like a personal assistant/travel agent.

Gosh, my interest level is piqued!
We had a local celebrity - a weatherman from one of our local TV stations and his daughter.
We also had a model from LA. I’ve written about her on this forum before. She want a good fit.

The only famous guest I ever had was the star of her own You Tube channel. 
And yes she sent me the link to it before arriving, and No I didn’t watch it!
