Celebs Members of Greek Orgs
 

I was wondering if anyone knows what celebs are members of certain greek organizations.

Is Brad Pitt a member- or maybe Suzanne Sommers? How about Winona Rider?

Brad Pitt is a Sigma Chi. As far as the other 2 I don't think they went to college let alone were in a sorority.

I've heard that Joyce Dewitt on threes company was a Chi Omega and another actress on the show was I've heard also. I think the one that replaced Suzannes character. Brad Pitt is a Sigma Chi. There are quite a number actually that are celebs. Sela Ward from Once & Again, The Fugitive, is a Chi Omega. Katie Courick, NBC Anchor, is a Tri-Delt. Debra Norville from Inside Edition is a Tri-Delt. Liza Gibbons, who had her own talk show, Leeza I think, Enertainment Tonight, and E! is a Tri-Delt. One of my brothers has been an anchor on Enertainment Tonight. Another one of my brothers was on Melrose Place. Another one of my brothers, Will Hardy in the future is supposedly going to star on Days Our Lives. He was the boyfriend of Sabrina on the FOX show Sabrina. One of my brothers is the Executive Producer of ESPN. I've heard John Wayne is a Sigma Chi. James Arness from Gunsmoke was one of my brothers. AL, Richard Karn, From that Homeimprovement show is a Beta. I believe there is or was a Chi Omega on Passions. I could go on and on.

I think David Letterman is also a Sigma Chi and also that Robert Redford is a Kappa Sig.

some famous Kappa Sigs:

Robert Redford, Jimmy Buffett, Sam Donaldson, Ted Turner, Dan Dierdorf, Dennis Haskins (yes, Mr. Belding from Saved By the Bell), Wink Martindale, D. Wayne Lukas, Peter Jacobsen, Curtis Strange, Lanny Wadkins, and Bob Dole - i'm sure every national has a similar list as well, like Kevin gave us!

KSig RC,

Thats awesome. I had no idea those were Kappa Sigs. Except for Bob Dole. One more is Cokie Roberts(anchor for ABC) Father was a Beta. Theres a new advisor (DOJ) for President Bush who is a Beta too. He was on his campagin team serving as a legal liason I believe and he helped participate in the Florida recounts. That was recently listed on my Nationals. There are definitely loads of famous greeks across the GLOs. I think there are many that go unreported with Nationals too. Thats just my opinion.

Drew Carey, David Schwimmer (Friends), Matthew McConaughey, Pat O'Brien and Bill MacAtee (network sportscaster) are all Delts.

Also, three winning Superbowl quarterbacks, John Elway (Denver), Mark Rypien (Washington) and Jim Plunkett (Oakland) are Delts.

There is a listing at www.delts.org -- click on "About Delta Tau Delta and then click on "Notable Delt Alums."

And, for a good Deke friend, both Presidents Bush are Delta Kappa Epsilon alums.

Hootie- awesome list but Joanne Woodward is married to Paul Newman (I just know this because they both live in the same town as I work in and I am dying to run into Ms. Woodward sometime at the local grocery store and get her pix!) Don't worry- it is not bragging at all- just being proud! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

Joanne Woodward - Academy Award Winner(Clint Eastwood's wife)

You don't know how long I have wondered about that! Seeing that big ole owl in the HOOTERS sign- - - I always had to wonder if it was a Chi - O's husband that came up with the concept -- thanks for the info!

imsohappythatiama...

I think that Kirstie Alley is a Gamma Phi Beta.

Hootie, I'm not sure if that was the movie or not but they ARE great. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Shopgirl, I thought Kirstie Ally was a Delta Gamma.

Little confusion about what sorority kristie alley is in...KKG? Gamma Phi? Delta Gamma?

Kevin, the Kirstie Alley thing really made me wonder so I went to DG's website and checked it out and she wasn't listed. There are many other fine women on the list, so I encourage those interested to check out the site http://www.deltagamma.org/aboutus/note.htm because it's very interesting! My favorite has to be Julia Sweeney...better known as Pat from Saturday Night Live.

I basically have no life on Monday nights, so I'll keep checking!

I would have sworn that Kirstie Alley is a member of Gamma Phi Beta. However, I when I visited Gamma Phi's website of famous alumni, she was not listed (under entertainers). So, I'm really confused. But hey, let me tell you what you really want to know...WHO ARE SOME FAMOUS SIGMA KAPPAS??!!??
Come down...I'm getting there...

Kerri Jill Garbis: Broadway star

Judith Guest la Vercombe: wrote Ordinary People, which later became a movie.

Haze: Alternative rock band (lead singer)

Lauren Roman: Laura Kirk English on All My Children...I don't think she's on it anymore.

Margaret Chase Smith: 1st woman elected to the US House of Representatives and the US Senate.

Ashley Welkos (a.k.a Maitland Ward): Boy Meets World and The Bold and The Beautiful.

Mrs. Theodore Gisel, wife of Dr. Seuss

Susan Johne: US Senator of Kentucky

Lind Cross Dowdy: Owner and creator of Barney

O.K. that should be enough to get you through the day!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Alrighty then...I meant to say

CALM down!!! DA!!! Also, I used and extra "I" in there. Sorry for the mistakes. I hate when I do that!!!

Here I am again...once more, we see that Sandy has no life!

I went on www.greek101.com tonight and I found this list of of famous greeks. Of course, it'd be easy to just click on the link, but because I'm bored I figured it'd be fun to cut and paste. Oddly enough, Kirstie Alley was not mentioned!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

I didn't see this one mentioned, but how could I forget that Harper Lee, the woman that worte the acclaimed "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a Chi Omega!

I myself am questioning the Kirstie Alley thing (and I'm the one who posted it).

When I was pledging and they told us all of the famous Kappas, I didn't remember hearing this one, but someone at work (who is also a Kappa) told me that Kirstie Alley was a KKG. She showed me a website (not a KKG website) that listed Kirstie as a Kappa.

I'll have to ask her what website that was; when I find out, I'll post it.

So funny that DG, GPhiB, and Kappa are all claiming Kirstie--who knew she was so popular? (I didn't!)

Okay, for all those interested, here is the site she got the Kirstie Alley thing from:
http://www.rider.edu/users/greeks/famous.htm

I think that it just looks like Kirstie Alley is a Kappa because of the way it is formatted:

"Kirstie Alley, Candice Bergen (Kappa Kappa Gamma)"

But if you followed that logic, you would think that Sarah Jessica Parker was a TKE:

"Sarah Jessica Parker, Brad Pitt, Elvis Presley (Tau Kappa Epsilon)"

So I am retracting my statement that Kirstie Alley is a KKG--she's the only one on the list that I was unsure of! Now I'm going to make my Kappa co-worker take me out to lunch for making me look like a dork on this bulletin board!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

Wow! That's quite a list! And no one saw Suzanne Sommers on a list, anywhere? Guess she wasn't a member, then.

Miami brings up the Supreme Court:
At one point in the sixties and seventies, two of the seven sitting members of the Court were Delts:

Justice Tom Clark who was also International President of the Fraternity at the time and Justice William Brennen.

It is legend that Mr. Justice Clark was so paranoid about the very special jeweled badge of the presidency that he kept it locked up in a vault at the Supreme Court Building. I guess that's secure.

Delt also claims a Nobel Prize winner, some astronauts, the current president of GM, the founder of Fudruckers, the author of Forest Gump and the presidents of Ohio State University, The University of Northern Colorado and Bethany College among other notables.

We also have a number of politicians -- but why mention them?

By the way, these are all initiated members who went through the entire process. We don't have honorary members that I'm aware of.
