I graduated high school with Yes Duffy, who was on Road Rules. He was a nice guy, played the sax, very smart.

We don't have 29384729365 celebrities coming out of Hawaii, but I knew Miss America 2001 Angela Perez Baraquio Grey before she won the title. Her mom and dad still live up the street from me.

And though I don't really consider him a "celebrity", he's still a household name in many homes since he's about to break Ty Detmer's passing record next season. I've known Tim Chang since before he could WALK (let alone pass) on his own. He's the on again/off again (currently off again) "not-BF". Our mothers are good friends and have been since even before I was born.

Amycat's dad is his biggest fan. Haha.

And very hot.

He must have been very smart to have gone to Cal Berkeley!

I went to High School with Shannon Oliver (she was number 3 on the first Bachelor)...not friends, but she was my partner for a Sociology project.

A guy I liked in third grade was in 'Powder'...not much else.

Don't know if this counts, but my uncle is a news anchor in Philly.

I also am friends (still talk to her, JUST found out what she does recently) with a bona fide porn star...NO, Russ, I won't post pictures.

My boyfriend's dad is an accountant. One of his clients is the father of a guy inDashboard Confessional...

I also took kiddie theatre lessons with Austin Petty when I was little.

I dunno...once you say you're related to someone it just seems to be kinda "ewww" to say they are hot.

My BF and his sister were extras in a movie with Christopher Walken when they were kids...but that doesn't count. =P

I am very good friends with singer/songwriter Josh Kelley. He sings "Amazing" and "Everybody Wants You" in case y'all don't recognize his name. He went to Ole Miss and we were friends throughout college & we are still really good friends & keep in touch. He is a great friend!!!

Theo from Road Rules was Josh's "road manager" for a while and I became friends with him. I don't keep in touch with him though.

Okay Miss Amy, we didn't want to know who your friends were anyway.

I saw him on the Aloha Bowl (I think that's what it was called?); he's a cutie patootie!

As for me, I don't really have a star-crossed life. My boyfriend my first semester freshman year played hockey for the Pittsburgh Penguins and my soon-to-be brother in law is a DJ at Star 100.7 in Pittsburgh. Also, Jay Mariotti, who is a sportswriter for the Rocky Mountain News and is on ESPN's "Around the Horn" is like my 2nd cousin but I've never met the guy.

Amycat I'm not

ha ha YOU know who they are Sandy. I just think it would be tacky of me to broadcast it, you know? I do not mean this as any reflection on the rest of you, this is my OWN value system about my friends privacy and my own privacy.

Humm.. well I've met some famous people... but not really friends with that many of them... although the Donnas did go to school at Palo Alto High... which is like 5 minutes from my high school... and there were a year ahead of me so I remember hearing about them in the local paper and seeing them at local performances and I even talked to them once back then.. but it was only that one evening we never really became friends or anything. A guy a went to high school with was on Dismissed... but those are really my closest ties to "fame".

Hahahahaha, you know I'd do the same thing if I had those friends in MY network!

*OTW goes back to wishing she had amycat's life*

Seriously, you can have all the time you want on the North Shore. Let me be Amy for at least a week!

....I have worked with Mark Tremoni From Creed, Sean Mackin from Yellow Card (lent him money once and he actually paid me back!), and am on a friendly basis with all the guys in Dexter Freebish and Brighter Shade. I dated Pat Stahl from The Shakers. Some of these guys are more celebrity than others, but they are all celebrity in their hometowns. I don't hang with most of them them anymore though. But I am very proud of them and their accomplishments. All very nice guys and deserve all the successes they have.

And-this is kind of wierd even though it has NOTHING to do with me...my step mother's mom plays bridge with Kevin Spacey's mom. So, I hear about what a good son he is once in a while from step-grandmommy.
