I saw her at St. Mary's College in South Bend, IN and met her at an after party. She is very friendly and very charismatic. After a two hour stand up performance, she took the time for a meet and greet, which was very generous. I laughed so much tonight and am very glad I got to meet such a wonderful comedian and actress. Her energy is incredible and I can only hope to have half of it at 70. Anyone else met her before?

shareYes I've met her too. I agree with you. Lily is incredible off stage as well as on. She takes time to look in the eye and talk to every person who comes up to her. She has this amazing gift for making you feel like a friend when she talks with you. I've often thought not only is she mega-talented on stage but very much so in person as well. I've seen her take two minutes for a fan and it seems like she has just had a really good time meeting you, chatting and laughing. I don't know how she does it. After a show I'm usually tired and wanting some 'down' time. I don't know that I could be half as gracious. AND she'll sign autographs and take pictures to boot. A fan couldn't ask for anything more in meeting the favorite celeb.
shareLucky you. She seems like an awesome person and actress.

And, I hope that when I do meet her, I can post about it fondly, right here on these boards! = )
I HOPE SO TOO!
