People should put pictures of the inside of their house do we can play through the key hole.

I'm not, but I'm good friends with someone who is Saturday night telly famous. She's lovely but steers clear of all social media as far as I know. Her agent regularly scans stuff if she's trending though.

I'm not saying.

When I joined Brownies a couple of weeks later, one of the older Brownies recognised me (from the above dancing on TV with Sooty & Sweep and bubbles) and asked for my autograph.

I'm J K Rowling. And in really short about the epilogue, I don't know what my publisher was thinking.

Still the play is making a lot of cash.

OK , yes, you've sussed me out. Honestly, though, yes, I'm very very famous but I'm just like all the other mums here; I put my La Perla knickers on one leg at a time just like you guys.

TheGirlWithAPrince · 14/01/2017 23:43

Yes, I like not being known when i get online and use a fake name, also funny when i can ask people what they think of me etc and there completely honest instead of Ass kissing :)

My DC have a very famous grandparent.

sunnysidesucks · 14/01/2017 23:50

What I would like to know is whether the famous people on here just like to read all the questions / problems the rest of us have to deal with, or are you taking advice…. did anybody tell Angelina to LTB without realising it was her? ;)

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 14/01/2017 23:51

Masketti - is this person your parent or your in law? If the latter, are they a nightmare IL?!

ChristmasEvePJs · 14/01/2017 23:53

I am not. DD's godfather is in a headline act band though... he is not even on fecking messenger!

GimmeeMoore · 14/01/2017 23:53

No,but I've met famous folk,I dated a famous person.
All in all no biggie cause they're as insecure as the rest of us

maras2 · 14/01/2017 23:53

Not me but my mum was and my Dh is. Smile

SheSparkles · 14/01/2017 23:53

I'm infamous

WorraLiberty · 14/01/2017 23:54

On a different note, I have never got my head around the obsession some people have with famous people.

So someone works in front of a camera for a living - why does that then make so many people giddy and overly interested in them?

Try as I might (and believe me I have tried) I just can't get it.

Locally. I doubt many outside of my country would know me though without needing to Google.

TeethDrama · 14/01/2017 23:56

Famous people... what's it like being famous? When at celeb parties, is there some code of conduct, an unwritten thing where "what goes on at the celeb party, stays at the celeb party"? Or is it more overt than that - people (host??) ask you not to say anything to the papers? Are people paid off to stop them telling stories to the paper about behaviour in clubs or hotels? How does it work?!
