If I met them as a course of normal life and got on with them than great but I don't feel a draw to simply share the air with somebody based on fame.

Yea, I'm feeling the same way after reading the answers. For me, I'd pick my grandma (still alive near a century, feisty as hell); no need to elaborate for the rest, but for me, that's what I'd do.
Don't get me wrong, it'd be pretty cool to sit at a table with some influential people; even Jesus. But what would you really ask them? How do you think they'd be as a dinner guest? And just because they're in the "spotlight", does that make them any sort of influential figure on you?
I have no imagination so here's my spin:
--------------------------------------------------------
/* Dinner table with Bono */
Me: So, uh, yea. You made some bank with U2, had some shitty concerts and albums in the later years and now you're trying to help the world. Good for you.
Bono: Could you pass the cabbage?
/* Dinner with Jesus */
Me: So, uh, yea. Are you really the son of god or some poor bastard who shares the name Jesus? How's it feel to get nailed to a cross? If you are 1/3 the divine trinity, why the fuck didn't you cast a dissenting vote when you saw, for the most part, humans and their free-will a retarded invention?
/* Dinner with Paris Hilton */
Me: Either you're savage at marketing yourself against your family name and fame or you're a slut; which is it?
Paris: Can you get the waiter; there's a tiny bread-like-thing in my salad.
Now, Bono and "Jesus" actually help of some sort. Not sure what Paris does, but I'm sure her celebrity status does something as well... hopefully.
