That means I can't make a list of my heroes and heroines in this thread, like any good apparatchik.

So in lounges -
1. The whole Crows AFL team (not sure if that counts as I'm not a footy fan)
2. The whole Port Power AFL team
3. Rex Hunt (Fishing celeb)
4. Jeff Fennech (Boxing champ - not sure on the spelling)
Flying -
1. John & Mrs Singleton (Horse owner)

I hope you frisked Rex to check for cutlery.
I believe his antics at the ADL QP a few years ago resulted in the plastic knives we now have to endure.
Cathy Freeman in the MEL QP (Near Gate 3, before the CL was implemented).
Wayne (you bloody beauty) Grady, Peter Senior, Craig Parry and various other professional golfers one Sunday evening in the same old QP after a tournament at Royal Melbourne.
Ian (molly) Meldrum in seat 1D as myself, mini and mrs walked down the aisle to our seats.
Kate Ceberano, extremely board at ASP QP awaiting an 2 hours delayed flight to Sydney (transiting from DRW).

About two months after he was on the front cover of AA's "American Way":
Really, really nice guy. Also the star of my current favourite sitcom (US version of "The Office"). Good thing my status hadn't updated by then (I qualified on the SYD-LAX flight)...otherwise I would've headed straight to the FLounge and missed him.
The only other famous person I've ever seen at an airport is Mal Meninga, about 15 years ago!
(I did meet and get a photo with...wait for it...VANILLA ICE last year, but that wasn't at an airport. )
