To some, it would be a dream come true to meet one of their favorite celebrities. Throughout New York state, Hollywood's biggest stars have made an appearance.

Within the Hudson Valley, we have spotted Post Malone, Justin Bieber, Ben Stiller and other popular figures in the limelight.

While some celebrities visit our area, others reside in quaint towns or own businesses within the Hudson Valley.

I met Butch Patrick in Middletown, NY and Kelsey Grammer in Poughquag, NY. Butch was visiting for an event he was going to attend in New Jersey and Kelsey Grammer made an appearance to show his support to a Hudson Valley business. Kelsey also has a home within the Hudson Valley and owns a business here as well.

Those who are on the hunt for a celebrity spotting could get lucky by visiting Samuel's Sweet Shop, owned by Hilarie Burton and Paul Rudd.

What if you could be on a film set with one of Hollywood's biggest stars?
