Have you met anyone famous? Have you passed someone on the street? Related to anyone? Do tell!

I have met several famous people including Loni Anderson (her daughter taught at my high school), Kevin Costner, Jason Kidd, Michael Jordan, and Sammy Davis Jr. I don't think I am related to any famous people, although my uncle was an extra in the movie the Survivors.

i work in the music industry now, and prior to that i worked in politics so i've seen and met my fair share of famous people. but i never seem to pass any on the street. i suspect that's because i don't pay good enough attention when i'm out walking around though.
