The PopWatch Confessional (Vol. 46: Free dream analysis edition)

Mark_mcgrath_lI don’t dream about celebs often, and when I do, it’s never someone that I actually want to dream about. Example: Earlier this week, I found myself in bed with Ike Turner. We were just sleeping, my left hand resting sweetly on his chest. Huh? I would never do that to Tina.

Years ago, I had an even more disturbing cameo: Mark McGrath (pictured). Follow me here. I was in a stadium parking lot, dressed like Maid Marian and giving alms to the poor. Then McGrath showed up in a wifebeater and kissed me. What? This was before I saw him kick ass on Rock ‘n’ Roll Jeopardy, so I had zero appreciation for the Sugar Ray frontman/entertainment news guy.

Think you can beat my random celebrity dream encounter? Post it below.

    I was Alicia Keys’ butler/houseboy. I cooked, cleaned, paid her bills, answered the door and did everything else to take care of her household. Nothing romantic went on (unfortunately), but she relied on me for everything. Finally, my life had a true purpose!

  • marilinda

    a friend of mine used to have very vivid romantic dreams about tony danza.

    I have random celebrity dreams almost once a week. One of the better ones recently had me and…wait for it…Britney! I was in a convertible with her and Ali Sims and Sam Lufti and she was driving really crazy (imagine!) and I got her to stop the car. I proceeded to kick Ali and Sam out of the car telling them both to “Get lost and that I would kill them both if I ever saw them with her again!” Sam walked away and flipped me off. I then pulled Britney out of the car, picked her up in my arms (I could smell her perfume I tell ya!) and carried her to my house, telling her I was going to save her, and she started crying telling me “I just need a friend!” We then went shopping. And that’s just the one I remember right now. I really have to quit watching Entertainment Tonight before I hit the sack…on second thought, that’s not gonna happen. Britney when you get back from Mexico, call me. I’m here to help!!!

    I’m sort of ashamed to say that I had a hot dream about Zach Braff in the aftermath of Garden State. (I’m much older than he is.) David Cassidy also pops up in my dreams sometimes – a holdover from my 10-year-old self’s fantasies.

    I had a dream in high school that Brad Pitt wanted me to be in his new aerobics video and none of my friends believed me so he flew up to Portland from LA and stood on my front lawn while everyone I knew walked by telling me that Brad Pitt was on my lawn.

    I dreamt I was in Cannes and Alice Cooper, in full makeup, was bidding me a fond aiedu from his motorboat. I abruptly woke up, and I’ve never been able to shake the weird images from my head. Alice Cooper?

  • clarabelle

    my best friend and i still laugh about the time i had a sex dream about bill pullman. i guess he was the president in independence day, so it could be worse…

  • Simeon

    Once I dreamt I was on a very sturdy raft in Lake Michigan, floating along, eating KFC with Oprah. We were enjoying the Chicago skyline. I like to think we had a nice time.

    I dreamt that I lost my virginity to Morrissey on the moors after he played at bar in England. He told me I was his “beautiful darling girl” and the “only woman he would ever love” before we consummated our passion under a moonlit sky. I was 14 and I cried for 2 days after I woke up and realized it wasn’t real. This was like, 1990 and I still clung fiercely to the fact that he was just “celibate” and not… whatever he is

  • Cinderella

    When I was about 12, I remember having a very vivid dream in which I was walking through an office and I met George Michael, and he pulled me to him and kissed me. I woke up and swore I could still feel his lips on mine. I was probably kissing the pillow in my sleep or something. But I don’t know why it was him of all people. I’d never had a crush on him or anything!

  • Maryte

    Just last night I had a dream I was planning a reunion party for a friend and I was shopping with the duo “Flight of the Conchords.” Jermaine was really sweet and I was seriously crushing on me during the dream. Then later, the friend that we were planning the party for showed up: It was Olivia Newton John! Totally weird.

  • Cara

    Ooh, here’s a good one from just the other night.
    I dreamed that I was just sitting in my kitchen, minding my own business, when suddenly, Tom Welling comes storming in! (Don’t ask me why–I don’t even watch ‘Smallville’) He was really, really mad and he was yelling at me, telling me he missed me and he loved me and he needed me, begging me to come back (apparently, we had had somewhat of a history. Who knew). I was kind of scared and I told him to leave, that we were over and he had to accept it.
    He stormed out, and I collapsed onto a kitchen chair, confused by the events of the morning. Suddenly, there was a loud explosion outside! I looked out the window, and saw that Tom Welling had blown up the football stadium out of wild uncontrolled passion for me.
    Yep. That’s how it went.

  • Maryte

    Whoops! In the comment below, I wasn’t crushing on me obviously. I may be a little narcissistic but I wouldn’t drown in a lake over my reflection. I was crushing on Jermaine. Sorry.

    when i was still in school i had a dream that i was running around some sort of high school track. suddenly out of no where rivers coumo and one of my professors were running along side of me. And in the stands sat most of the cast of Buffy in formal wear. And Sarah Michelle Geller had Freddie Prinze Jr. with her.
    To this day, I still wonder what was going on in my head.

    I had a dream that I was buying hot dogs from David Bowie. He was working behind the register at a grocery store. Bizarre!

  • Jen

    I had a dream about Nicolas Cage once-not so unusual, I guess he’s A-list. But in the dream I was a dog (a little white scruffy thing) and he was very excited to be starring in a movie with me and kept telling me what a great actress I was.

  • Alison

    Over the summer, I dreamed that I was walking the red carpet for Live Earth. I saw Cameron Diaz talking to a reporter, so I walked up to her and grabbed her ponytail, pulling her to the ground. We started fighting until someone said Oprah wanted to interview the two of us. Cameron pretended we were BFFs during the interview, but I ignored her. I then made a statement about global warming and someone accused me of stealing the statement from Pete Wentz.
    So strange…

    Several years ago, I dreamt that I walked in on Matt Damon deflowering my younger sister, who doesn’t even find Matt Damon attractive! And multiple dreams about ‘Lost’ where I’m on the island with them and we’re being pursued by the unseen monster–dreams always end before anything can be resolved (just like every episode!).

  • Ceballos

    I had a dream that I was filming a scene in a Western involving one of those dramtic, quickdraw shootouts, only it was me against John Goodman…and neither of us could hit anything (no offense, but I should be able to hit John Goodman).
    Oh yeah, the movie was being directed by Woody Allen.

  • Ceballos

    Oh yeah, my girlfriend told me that she had a dream were the two of us were in danger and I was Batman.
    Only I wasn’t dressed up in the cape and cowl or anything, I was just in my normal, everyday clothes…it was just understood that I was Batman…favorite.dream.ever. (wasn’t even mine.)

  • Meg

    Randy Quaid keeps popping up in my dreams. Randy! not Dennis. Even in my dreams I have low standards, sorry Randy.

    I have weird celebrity dreams constantly like the one time I was a brett michaels groupie and my job was to make sure he had enough paper plates for his meal.But the all time spookiest occurred when I was a very young girl. It is the only childhood nightmare I remember and it included a candyland like village with hamburger headed people (pretty mcuh all hamburglars). I remember water and stairs and Casey Kasem. A large red phone next to him rang and he picked up, he hung up and in a very creep casey kasem voice said “your mother shouldn’t be leaving her toys laying around” It was very threatening. To this day his voice freaks me out.

  • Gayle

    I have had dreams about being with Elvis! hahahaha…and I always hate waking up!

  • Marcus

    Several years ago I had a dream where I attended a meeting with several important people, among them were Ned Beatty and Batman. I really wish I could remember what the agenda was.

  • jpt

    My brother told me once he had a dream where he met Chewbacca. Instead of “talking” with Chewie, my brother said he took Chewie’s crossbow and then shaved him completely bald.

  • sarah

    AHHH I hate Fall Out Boy, Ashlee Simpson and eyeliner but that Pete Wentz fellow ended up in my dreams two days ago. We danced in an old fashioned ice cream shoppe type of place. SO RANDOM SO RANDOM.

  • Broadway Baby

    Had to consult the diary for this one to make sure I got all the facts straight: I was helping Michael Beck (of Xanadu and Warriors fame) record a comeback album and we had settled on “Skyhigh” by Jigsaw as the first single. Only we had no recording space and we had to sneak into the El Toro Marine Base to use theirs. There was a lot of sneaky moves and near misses with the Marines trying to keep us out of their recording booth. I don’t know if we ever made it – the dream was us mostly trying to avoid the Marines. My only explaination for it is that this was 6 years ago when I was first pregnant with my oldest. Hormones and Michael Beck go hand in hand right? By the way I am not in the recording business by any stretch of the imagination. But I guess if you’re Michael Beck I’m as good a choice as anyone to help you record your comeback album.

    I had a dream about Howie from the Backstreet boys where I was their PR agent and we had a brief PG fling. I mean, come on subconscious! Howie?!? He`s like number 15 on a list of boybanders ranked by do-ableness.

  • Murderpuss

    I’ve had TWO dreams about Randy Quaid. In one we were best friends who loved speed boating. We’d race the boat as fast as possible toward the shore and then it would go straight up this vertical ramp into the air and we’d both fall out laughing all the way to the ground. Then we’d do it again.
