jasonxctf Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 thought this would be an interesting thread. Who do you know that is famous? (and when I say know, I mean you could call them up and they know who you are) I'll start..

FlaSoxxJim Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Wyland, the marine life artist who does all the big Whaling Walls. Alexandra and Phillipe Cousteau, grandchildren of Jacques. Jeff "Biff" Huber, my college dorm mate and apartment mate, and now the friggin Senior VP of Engineering and friggin' Google. I obviously stood in the wrong line on College Career Day. :crying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunkBomber Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I know the bassist for the Plain White Tees and a kid thats on X games all the time.

Kyyle23 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I lived with the lead guitarist of Revis, back when they were called Orco. It was a pretty neat experience, and I am thanked in the liner notes, which is pretty damn cool if you ask me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Well my mom got to know Clay Aiken at one point in time in working for his charity, and I believe they spoke on the phone a few times. My mom got to be very good friends with his mother. My mom also appeared on Oprah, and Oprah sent a limo to our house to pick her up for the show. I wouldn't say she knows Oprah though.

juddling Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Sep 11, 2008 -> 12:56 AM) Jenny McCarthy... I met Jenny a couple of times while we were at SIU together back in the late 80's. She went out with a friend of mine a couple of times. Kind of like her MTV personality, she thought she was funnier than she actually was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Zelig Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Depends on what you mean by 'know' and "famous", but I have met and hung out with many musicians. Some crash at my place when they come through town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 (edited) QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Sep 10, 2008 -> 06:56 PM) Jenny McCarthy... She is about the closest connection I have to anyone who is famous. My mom's friend is good friends with her mother, who lives near us in Orland Park. I believe they grew up together. I was obsessed with Jenny when I was younger and actually met her at a benefit in Chicago. This was at the height of her popularity. Another occasion she left a message on my answering machine haha.

CanOfCorn Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 The only one I can think of that would know me right off the bat was the former lead guy on the Morning Fix on Q101, Alan Cox. We used to work together a long time ago. Other than that...I have extended connections to author Dave Eggers, TV personality from Work Out, Zen Gray, and news people Jen Roscoe in Champaign, Steve Osunsami with ABC, and Kyung Lah with CNN.
