Anyone know someone who is famous or knew them before they became famous?

AllIWantIsYourClutch · 01-17-2006, 09:39 AM

I know people who know people who are famous. Adrianne Curry from Americas Next Top Model/The Surreal Life lived in my neighborhood (her mom still does) and a lot of my teachers had her in class.

Josh Duhamel. I went to school with his cousin. They are cousins because their dads are brothers. I met Josh a real long time ago, way before his All My Children days.

I'm related to JKF but,of course I'm only 14 so, I never met him

swedeace · 01-17-2006, 05:49 PM

No, but I have known some people who have known famous people:

-One of my co-workers (an instructor) actually knew Joyce DeWitt (Janet from Three's Company) while they grew up in Indiana years ago. Her older sister was a friend of Joyce's during their elementary school years. I thought that was pretty cool. I could probably get some dirt/info on Joyce's childhood if I asked her for details!

-An ex-co-worker said she attended a high school with Neil Patrick Harris from "Doogie Howser, MD."

my cousins were in a band that were popular at one point. at least popular where i'm at.

my great grandpa (i never met him) worked in a barber shop with perry como before he was famous.
i think that's it.

I'm a huge fan of JFK so I think this is really cool.

Well, my uncle is a television producer named Thomas Miller. That really does not make him famous though. Also most of the shows he produced are not among my favorites.

Ohio8 · 01-17-2006, 06:30 PM

I once lived down the street from someone who's semi-famous. His name is Dr. Arthur Benjamin, Ph.D., and he's a professor of mathemathics at Harvey Mudd College in California.

He invented a game called Mathenatics, and he wrote numerous articles and papers and co-wrote a book. He also was in several videos and in 1988 there was a story on him in "People" magazine.

My friend told me today that he is related to Mike Tyson. I hope I have both my ears after school tomorrow.
