I bet there are bare claims to fame on here! I swear everyones got a brother who works for the pope and shit...so yeah, i wanna hear em, so I can rock the claim to fame that "someone i know on a forum..."

Anyhoo, I always forget mine which gets really annoying, but pretty stoked I was on the school relay team with ole Theo Walcott (that boy was QUICK) and one for the walking stick steppers, my late great uncle is Harry Secombe!

Gwan, someone tell me they're half the queen or invented the apple or something...

I walked by the drummer from Franz Ferdinand on Byers Road in Glasgow yesterday.

My grandad's cousin has a building in Glasgow Caledonian University named after him, the cousin happened to have the same name as him too.

Celtic defender Stephen McManus was a year or two above me in school.

one time, at a mardi gras fair in New Orleans, Steven Segal was the "captain" of the fair. they were throwing shit out from the floats like they always do, and he was throwing plastic cups (common mardi gras thing, get to know). He looked right at me and threw me a cup!

yeah thats shit, but i cant think of anything better right now.

Ian Fleming is my great great uncle twice removed (i think) and im also somehow related to Baden Powell (scout fam). I once gave Joe Pasquale directions to our local theatre and I had a chat with Proffessor Mick Aston (time team) about old stuff.

i have an actual signed pictured from kenny loggins. no you cant have it. it even has my name on it, albeit its spelled with an 'h' :[

i met Dennis Haysbert who played president palmer on 24 at koi in hollywood. he had big cushie hands. i was gushing.

i also dined next to justin timberlake and cameron diaz at katsuya in studio city many moons ago. it was painful, she was all lovey eyes and he was like you gonna get the bill? also, same resturant, sean patrick flannery from the boondock saints. it would have been cooler if i had met norman reedus instead.

also, i think its worth mentioning that when i was a wee little girl was i was convinced i was a princess. i think this should be noted.

about three years ago i did an interview with dj vadim, yarah bravo, syrus and demolition man..
that night i got the best shoutout ever recorded for our radio show 'coast2coast':

"hallo, this is dj vadim. when i'm not drinkin vodka or listening to my beatles records - i'm checking out the coast2coast show, germany, number one"

.. in a very bad pretended russian accent as well. sounds really funny, so i thought it might fit this thread perfectly
