I'm sure SOMEONE has at one point - she couldn't have never met another human being in her life. :)


And no, I haven't.

Yes, I've met her several times before at award shows, galas and parties and she has always been very warm, kind and gracious.

I got a letter from her once - does that count? She was very warm in the letter. It was a response to a piece of fan mail I sent her after seeing her in Putting It Together.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be a "smart @$$." And it's not like me answering with a joke will waste space for someone who HAS met Julie Andrews. I actually would like to know how she is in person, though I'm sure she's a wonderful person. Seriously, can anyone picture Julie Andrews as a bitter woman? Just doesn't work for me.

Jam_Man, you have to admit, it would be really funny if she just went home at night, lit a pack of cigarettes (yes, all at once), and said, "these freakin theatre geeks are driving me up a wall. Wadsworth! Where's my facial kit and my evening chai?!" haha, not saying she's like that at all, but wouldn't it be funny if it was all just an act?

I met her after VICTOR/VICTORIA and at a little bookstore downtown last fall when she had a book signing. She's very sweet.

I haven't yet,

But she will be in Toronto this year directing the Boyfriend, and I plan to let her know how amazing she is.

I met her in 1983. She was in the audience of a performance that I was a part of. After the performance there was a dinner in the upstairs lobby of the Dorothy Chandler Pavillion. I flipped out when I saw her. I stayed at her table chatting with she and Blake Edwards and never went to my table.

I met her again in Chicago a few years ago. She came to speak at Benedictine University. After the lecture everyone was invited to get her autograph. I asked her about film of Camelot and she said that except for Ed Sullivan there is nothing. Darn it!

A friend of mine actually said that she can't stand Julie Andrews! WTF?! I could understand not caring one way or the other; but to flat out not like the woman?! It's Julie Andrews!

Stewie Griffin: Oh, Julie Andrews, I just love your classy, family friendly work.

Julie Andrews: PISS OFF, YA' BLOODY WANKAR!!!!!!!!!


Funny? Yes. I still couldn't see it, though.

I met her years ago and don't even remember what the situation was. She's a doll.

My boyfriend does a GREAT Julie Andrews. He always goes around saying "I'm Julie Andrews, and you're not."

I used to do a perfect (singing) Julie Andrews in high school, but then as my voice matured and was trained, the texture changed and I can't do it anymore.

Those who've met her: Could you smell the lilacs?
