How about being the mother of not one...but TWO Superbowl winning team MVP quarterbacks?

Payton and Eli Manning's mom, Olivia, was a Delta Gamma at Ole' Miss U.

I think they should mention her .

Well, we have alumnae to thank for our groups, but NPC recruitment is such that you are joining the chapter based on the actives.

And don't football players always say "Hi Mom!" when the camera is pointed at them?

That's interesting-I didn't even realize Nancy Grace was a member of a GLO. I'm pretty sure Ann Coulter is a Delta Gamma but, do you know what org. Nancy Grace is a member of?

Nancy Grace is a Macon Magnolia...a member of our "sibling", Alpha Delta Pi.

I'm probably the last one on the face of the earth to know this - but I recently saw Carrie Underwood's "All American Girl" video, in which, she was wearing a Sigma Sigma Sigma jersey. I looked on GC and saw there was a thread about her in the sigma forum. Prior to that I wasnt sure if she was wearing the jersey, just to wear it, or if she was actually a member.


And yeah - that "plus size" model was gorgeous.

Carrie is a Tri Sigma from Northeastern Oklahoma State University, the Alpha Iota (coincidence that she won American Idol) chapter. She actually spoke at a recent Tri Sigma Convention (2007, right?). Not only is she famous and notable, she still contributes to her GLO.

Absolutely! She is one "reality TV Greek" that we are all proud of! She's helped with Foundation efforts, is the spokesperson for e-mail campaigns and chose to wear her collegiate jersey for her video. If only all notable alumnae were that involved...

I know Deborah Norville did a whole segment on her affiliation with Delta Delta Delta on Inside Edition a while back - it was adorable!

I've always liked Deborah Norville. It's really cute that she did that Tri Delt segment.

So this thread got me to thinking..... I have often had people tell me that "so and so" is a member of this GLO but once I look on their respective site I can find no trace of them. For example, someone on GC told me that Cindy McCain was a Theta, but she is not listed on our national website. Any insight on this?
