Do you know someone who has become famous?  

Kinda sorta...

Remember the show "Three's Company"?

I knew this girl in Junior High, DeeAnn Harrison. DeeAnn had a younger sister named Jenny (Jennilee). Well after Susanne Somers left the show, they brought Jenny in as her cousin or something. She was only on the show for a year, I think, and I never saw her on TV again.

I don't yet know anyone who is famous, but if you give it a couple more years I'm sure at least one of the people I grew up with will make it. :) We're all still in the college phase right now.

I always thought it would be weird knowing someone famous and hearing what everyone's saying about them and all the gossip and knowing how they really are. I'd always feel the need to defend them fiercely if they were my friend or something and it'd be weird. Then I'd always wonder if I happened to see them while they were famous if they remembered me at all. What an awkward situation that would be if I went up to them to say hi and they had no idea who I was!

of course, I grew up in a school where we were the biggest graduating class with 95 people, so everyone in our grade knew each other, everyone in the grade above us, and everyone in the grade below us at the very least. XD

Yes. I went to school with a few guys who are now in a band called, "The Latency". They are absolutely huge up here in Canada and I wouldn't be suprised to see their fame take them into the States. They have already toured Canada and have opened up for some very big bands.

I've also known a TON of hockey players that are either now National Hockey League players, or are almost there. Almost too many to name.

helo! no i do not know anyone who has become famous. im trying to, thought LOL. so if i ever get famous you people at least no one of them LOL...

I went to school with three guys that made it to the NFL. All three were pretty nice guys back then. I know that fame did not change one of them, the other two I am not sure about becuase I have not seen them since graduation.

My doctor's son plays professional baseball. He is in the Athletics assoctiation. Don't know that he has made it to the big leauges yet but he is good so hopefully one day soon he will be there.

I personally dont know any famous people, but I thought I would tell you about my ex-boyfriend. He is from Virginia and has many stories of fmaous people.

He played basketball against Allen Inverson in middle school.Allen went to his rival school,but they did talk on several occasions. Keisha Freit, a WNBA player, stole his shoes one day!LOL!
They were friends for a long time.

I can remember hearing about those 2 the most often,but there are many other famous people he "grew up with". It is trult amazing all the famous people he has a story of,many of whom play NBA>

i have a friend who has a cousin who is an actress and was in the santa clause movies with tim allen. the cousins name is wendy crewson.

I do know a person who got famous.
Well one of my schoolmates or i must say classmates made it as an actress in the bollywood movies , she was really good looking and we did suspect that she would be modeling even then.
I saw her in a few TV promos and then suddenlt there was a huge announcement and she got to do a movie with the best actor around Shahrukh khan .
Wll i am talking about Anushka sharma. Well she did get famous and i hope she continues on the track.

Yeah, and I don't know if I'm fortunate or not, but this person happened to be my BOY FRIEND. It's crazy, I know. He was a normal guy when I met him but now he isn't so normal anymore. LOL. Good bye quiet life for us. Since he's from a prominent political family, he's famous now for being a young candidate running this coming elections. It's a weird feeling though but I guess I have to get used to it. LOL.

Living where I live, there's always famous people about. I can think of many child actors I knew but weren't so famous later on . . . so that may not count here. As far as someone who I personally knew who "became" famous . . . let's see . . . I knew Leslie Boone . . . she became an actress with a big role in "Babes" and "Ed" (though I don't consider her real famous though). I just knew her throughout the school years - always involved in drama and school government. In the skating world, I knew Keauna McLaughlin (of McLaughlin/Brubaker, figure skating pairs) when she was so little . . . she was such a timid rink rat, but has blossomed into this beautiful girl who became 2008 and 2009 US National Champion with her partner. A couple other skaters I know may not be household names, but they may be known to those who follow skating closely - Bebe Liang and Danielle Kahle - I knew them when they were practicing as kids as well. Gosh, I'm drawing a blank on others . . . but like I said, there are many famous faces around "here"!
