Think there was an old GAF thread like this, but figured bumping that 1.5 year old thread would be silly. I don't personally know anyone famous (in the U.S., in Indonesia though...), but I am friends with an NBA player's brother if that counts. How about you GAF?

Can't be anyone you know through GAF, especially Gary Whitta and Michael Cera.

Wait, what?
 
Who the heck are Gary Whitta and Michael Cera.

hmmm

I met famous people but don't really know them... -edit actually my cousin is a reporter for Univision :P
 
I know James Earl Jones well enough that if he's passing through town, we make an effort to meet up.
 
Seriously, how? What are the perks of being Sunflower?

Long ago, he spoke at my college - we forged a friendship there.

I have heard him order the "Moons Over My Hammy" from Denny's as well. It was good.
 
My wife works with Darius Rucker sometimes. Also, my sister and her husband work at Disney handling VIP relations. They know everyone and constantly get hooked up with concert tickets and sporting events.
 
I am related to John Mellencamp. I met his family over 20 years ago, I doubt they would remember me.

There are a lot of famous people on my street/block. I see Martin Sheen around every couple of weeks. I have also encountered Anthony Hopkins, Anthony Kiedis, and Michael Madsen. Do I know any of them like "yo let's hang out"? No way. There are several more I haven't encountered at all. Beck has a house a few over but it doesn't seem to get much use.

Oh I went to high school with and used to be pretty good friends with Lourdes Duarte, who is one of the news anchors at WGN.
 
I know a pretty high-profile comedian (Peter Apelgren) in Sweden and his wife (Anna Mannheimer) who is a... newspaper personality I guess, but that's about it.
 
Dubfire from the house duo Deep Dish. My dad is friends with his dad.

This is probably something only Canadians would understand, but my cousin was best friends with Trevor, the leadsinger of souldecision. He came to thanksgiving one time.
 
Cera's account and posts were deleted upon his request when it was found out and people got weird. I remember that he was a massive Nintendo Fanboy I believe. It was really weird.
