I lived across from John Travolta for a while...that was cool....My dad married Betty Sue Depp, Johnny Mom in 1985....he was doing Jump Strret at the time...who would have thought he would come this far.....

Boy do i have home movies to sell on ebay....

Is your dad still married to Johnny Depp's mom? So that makes you his step sister?

My cousin is Lance Burton. You've probably never heard of him unless you've been to Vegas. He's the only person to have a theater in Vegas named after them while still alive. He was also on Knight Rider once. Michael and K.I.T.T. trap a homicidal magician (played by real-life illusionist Lance Burton).

Interesting fact, I didn't know his side of the family was Jewish. How about that. You learn something new every day.

Not a "celebrity" exactly, but I'm related to the Bell Witch :)

Tell him I said they should've gotten him a better death scene in Nightmare on Elm Street....while incredibly gruesome, they coulda showed him dyin...geez.

But I'll be first in line for Pirates of the Carribean :)

I have a few celeb cousins. Can't quite remember all of them, but most them are pro sports. One used to play for the Lions, one for San Fran. (both football), and I barely remember the others. My dad is sorta a celebrity. A local celebrity.

Other then that no celebs... Well i did wind up being paired up with Michael Douglas on a golf course a few years back. That was pretty cool. The funny part was i had no clue who the hell he was for a few holes. Then it dawned on me.

***Celcius*** · 05-27-2006, 04:26 PM

I'm Tom Cruise, but only on the weekends.

The Shishpanik · 11-20-2006, 12:14 PM

Are any of you, even obscurely connected to anyone remotely important or famous?

I for one, have about three of these that I can think off the top of my head...

My girlfriend's brother is a soon-to-be professional skateboarder (look up Bobby Worrest)

My Ex-girlfriend's cousin is Kelly Slater, a very famous professional surfer who happens to have a video game modeled after him

One of my mom's best friends from high school was a candidate for the President of Poland, however he lost by about 2% of the votes.

How about you guys?
