Did you ever notice that when a post about a celebrity is made..
 

..at least 10% of the replies are from people that know the artist personally because
he or she "lives down the street" "they play baseball on fridays together" "shared marshmellows during summer camp" etc etc..??

Not saying they are lying but come on.. what are the odds!!!

no I never noticed

I know mrthumbs, he lives just down my street...

tupac owns the condo next to me. :)

Michael Jackson sleeps in my basement with Kato Kaelin.

Dude.. i moved ages ago when i came to the conclusion the restraining order wouldnt do the trick!

I only notice it from a few of the same people. One day their feet are going to get sore with all that name dropping!

Those fuckers all claim to know juicy!

mrthumbs gave me a reacharound one time.

I had MrThumbs sloppy seconds one time. :thumbsup

sorry, but i've never noticed that

I don't know the threads you are talking about...but if you have ever lived in a place like Los Angeles for any time you'd realise how easy it is to fall into step with some of these people.

I was constantly meeting celebrities, and getting into small conversations with them at doctor's offices, the vet's office, the post office etc.

Yes, could be.

:bowdown

:1orglaugh

yeah i notice that

I think you mistake my intentions.

He was asking about people meeting celebrities...and i was just pointing out how easy it is to meet them in LA..not tooting my own horn...just letting him know how easy it is.

if you enjoy nude celebrites... see below:

I do know him.


:winkwink:

Yes, they all lived in my street.

Agreed ... this is funny . You see somebody once ... 100 meters away, and it's your friend for the rest of your life

Like yesterday....I'm sure you ALL know Shane Weibe!!!!! Yeah he was on Canadian Idol!! He said hi to my daughter in line at Wendy's. We are friends for LIFE now!!!




What's that? You don't know Shane Weibe??? He's from Abbotsford......oh, you don't know where Abbotsford is? DAMN! I thought I was special for meeting someone who thought he could sing on a reality show. DAMN!

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

my friend sean connery would be appaled at this thread. :glugglug

I didn't even know who he was......my ex told me later. Thought it was funny.

By no means is this a lets get all pissy thread but I will give you a view from another perspective...

I am from a small town in Mid Michigan and will always be from there in my head..I have lived in Los Angeles for many years and have found myself in circles where contact with public figures happens often.

In many cases I think it has to do with sharing the experience of having been in the company of a media figure and on some occasions it is a bit surreal. I know it can be for me at times. I think people have different opinions on the subject of meeting public figues...and that is fine.

If it truly were no big deal what so ever than pop culture would not have such a huge emphasis on the repoirting of their lives, etc.

Obviously you and some others find it to be not only no big deal...but even annoying, to others its a unique experience and an experience they remeber the rest of their life...

I dont feel anybody is wrong just different in how they view the point

In Los Angeles it is very common and to some of us that will alwys live in that town nobody ever leaves in their head....it is a way of sharing the big city experience.

Welcome to LA. :winkwink:
