6th Degree of Kevin Bacon - GC Version

[AnotherKD]

Ooh, one more! My mom and Jason Lockhart's mom were in the same hospital room when they had us and we grew up together. Jason was in the TV show Bones with David Boreanaz, who was in Valentine with Denise Richards, who was in Wild Things with Kevin Bacon.

One my close HS friends was Kevin & Keira's kids' nanny quite a few years ago. She is still friends with the family.

My friend is a cameraman in Hollywood who has done filming with both Paul Newman and Susan Sarandon (that I know of, for all I know he has filmed Kevin Bacon himself!).

Paul Newman was in Hemingway's Adventures of a Young Man with Eli Wallach who was in Mystic River with Kevin Bacon.

Susan Sarandon was in Cradle Will Fall with Tim Robbins who was in Mystic River with Kevin Bacon.

How the heck many people were in Mystic River anyway??

I was a childhood friend of Regina King....

Regina was in Jerry Maguire with Tom Cruise. Tom starred in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon....

Also I was an extra in Bedazzled (2000) with Brendan Fraser and Brendan was in The Air I Breathe with Kevin Bacon

[Leslie Anne]

Okay, so that means that I'm friends with ms_gwyn who was a childhood friend of Regina King who was in Jerry Maguire with Tom Cruise who starred in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon.

Nope....what I call my A-ha moment with Mr. Fraser was Mrs. Doubtfire....I just appreciated him before that....

[Leslie Anne]

Brendan Fraser was in Mrs. Doubtfire?

I'll have to see that movie again!

[honeychile]

I went to the same high school as Dennis Miller. Kevin Bacon was on Dennis Miller Live in 2000.

(It somewhat shocks me, how easy that was!)

if I were Kevin Bacon, I'd be paranoid as hell. All those people I've never met trying to figure out how close they are to me.

I'm pretty sure that the game was based on an interview in which he had said he's worked with everyone in Hollywood or someone mutual (so...two degrees).

I don't know the rest of the story, but I remember hearing about it in the late nineties at work.

The Wiki on Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon. The article includes a reference to Bacon's charity website SixDegrees.org. It also includes this bit from Will and Grace, when Bacon appeared as himself:

Will: You — you did a movie with Val Kilmer?
Kevin: No, but Val was in Top Gun with Tom Cruise, and Tom was in A Few Good Men with me. Huh, that was a short one.

"Kevin Bacon is the Center of the Universe"

I remember that! They danced to "Footloose" in that episode. Very funny.
