Are you famous!?

[mum2Bomg]

I recon there must be loads of famous people on here! Holly Willoughby - totally on here. Everyone from Loose Women - here! Are you a famous? If you are then NC and then post and NC back - I'd love to know!

Famous people are just normal people, who just happen to be well-known by a number of other people, who have never met them. I know some people who are well known, but I don't know if they are famous. I don't know a lot of "famous people" that other people think at famous.

My dh isn't famous, as in nobody would know his name or face, but a famous tv character was based on him. He also worked with a lot of famous people. He was once called a narcissistic bastard by a notoriously narcissistic ex politician in a fabulous piece of projection. He considers that amongst his finest moments.

I shook hands with Sue Pollard years ago! By the way I want to start a new thread to have a rant, but haven't a clue how, can anyone help?

I'm not famous in any sense of the word but I am the pregnant woman in the video being "kissed" by the Orangutan that's gone (crazily and embarrassingly) "viral"recently

. I must say having random people all over the world make comment about you, your family, your lifestyle choices and your partners Suffolk accent (!!) has been interesting (mostly heartening, but sadly at times, quite hurtful), so I don't envy actual famous people who deal with it everyday!!

No I am not famous, but I do get requests for interviews from obscure journals

Somewhat similar - I've got a surprising amount of journalists following me on twitter or messaging me on facebook asking to interview me.

morginfae A piece of advice I was given - never ever read the comments if you are on news/go viral.

I'm infamous

Not shitting uou, I can only think of tony Blair and jimmy savile...

Oh, not that much hated!!!

No crimes involved.

Oh, actually I believe she may have partaken in some indecent exposure at some point early on in her 'career'.

@notshittingyou Katie Hopkins?

and a for cup

Woohoo!!!

In my area of work and I wrote 30 books etc but famous just depends on your definition of it.

I get a good few people wanting to buy me lunches and stuff like that - as if a free meal is something I need or might entice me in (I prefer email).

Fairly regularly people say I am their role model. You have to take that kind of thing with a pinch of salt and I try to do stuff that reminds me of normal life, picking litter, domestic stuff at home but I would not say I was famous on most people's definitions. I've just done a bit more publicity, TV, radio, books than most people who practise in my field.

ive often wondered this. Not so much 'slebs' but I've often mused if I've ever had a conversation with someone I actually know in real life. I suspect once or twice I have.
It'd tickle me to think the Queen or Kate Middleton are on here though. And why wouldn't they be (security possibly) but they are real women, mums with questions and opinions too.
I would hate to be famous - why on earth would you want to be? I could deal with being known in my field, but paparazzi type fame seems hellish.

I'm the missing link (have to shave regularly). I'll be very famous if science ever finds me.

Notshiitting you,,,that's unfortunate but it could be worse...😂

@EnormousTiger

Miriam Stoppard or Germaine Greer?

Oo, or Mary Beard?

Yes. I was a Bunty Supergirl in 1984. My 'favourite celebrity' was Michael Barrymore . I still have the cutting if anyone needs proof of my celeb status.

I'm a two-time West of England chess champion with the International Master and International Arbiter titles. Not sure whether that counts as famous, but I'm well-known in my field.

A walked in to a restaurant recently and heard the waiter laughing at my name (which was written on the list of reservations). He got a and a kind of face.

I have spoken to Davina on a few occasions at work.

My GP is famous as in he's been on loads of medical documentaries.

I have met Westlife, Shane Filan stopped a girl from crushing my arm into a metal fenc.

I am not famous, not even a tiny bit.

*fence

Sorry, not very good at typing quickly!!

@shouldHAVE yep, definitely need proof. Photo please.

I sat down at Rory McIlroy's table in a club once. I didn't know it was him but my feet hurt and he bought a round of shots and I had one so I basically did a shot with McIlroy.

I went to primary school and high school with a GOT character.

I tweeted about a celeb (rugby player) who had been into my work with his new gf days after splitting from his ex (model) and she rang my work to complain to my boss. I hadn't @ him but apparently she had someone who searched for his name on Twitter.

My car appears at the start of Housewives of Cheshire.

I won £160 on local radio.

I designed an advert for Warburtons bread and came first. I was quoted in my local paper as saying it was "dead good"

I'm just waiting for the call from CBB now...

I was an internet sensation for about 48 hours in 2010. I bloody hated it.
