Neil Young and Michael J. Fox meet in Vancouver

PopGoesTheNews.com >> They're both beloved Canadian icons but it took the Vancouver Olympics to bring Michael J. Fox and Neil Young together for the first time.

The 48-year-old actor, who was raised in B.C., and the 64-year-old singer posed for this photo as they were leaving Canada Hockey Place after watching Canada beat Slovakia in the men's semi-final game.

Fox and Young were sharing an elevator when legendary publicist Bill Vigars introduced them. "Both their eyes lit up and it became a mutual admiration society," he says.

The two stars are expected to take part in tonight's closing ceremonies.
