Done to death previously but always new members joining!

I am not famous, dont have any celebrity friends. It fascinated by what it must be like to be famous or have famous relatives or friends!

Anyone willing to spill any beans tonight to cheer me up!

I was once in a nativity play with scarlet Moffat does that count ?

I had a similar experience in China, Newtssuitcase. People constantly wanted to have photos taken with me - in touristy areas it was every couple of minutes! I don't think they thought I was a celebrity (I'm not!), I think it was just that I'm so different to them as I have blonde curly hair which stands out. It was a small taste of what it would be like to be a celebrity. I'm shy but I found it hilarious for the few weeks that I was there, though I'm sure it would get annoying after a while! They weren't interested in my dark haired DH, though people did point at him because he's so tall.

My daughter went to school with Michael Owen and we've seen him out and about as he doesn't live far from us.

I've "starred" in two TV programmes - though it was more the activity I took part in than me personally which was of interest, IYSWIM

Oh and I once visited the actor Jimmy Stewart at his home Smile

Eddie the Eagle saved my life, is that an ok claim to fame??

BaggypantsCrimplesnitch · 03/08/2017 20:25

I've been interviewed on local radio and appeared in the local paper - does that count?

GourmetGold · 03/08/2017 20:25

I've looked after some famous people in a previous job. Some family friends' family are good mates with some of the Astor and Rothschild family and some high up military types...great to throw in some conspiracy theories after a few drinks notBlush!

When she was a kid, my partner thought that the long haired blonde girl on the BBC testcard, was actually her. It wasn't.

What a twit.

CoolCarrie · 03/08/2017 20:32

Jimmy Stewart! Lucky you Puzzled He seemed such a lovely, warm gentleman.

CoolCarrie · 03/08/2017 20:34

TenForward, is it the Freud museum by any chance?

MrsPresley · 03/08/2017 20:39

I'm famous thanks to my late ex husband although I've done some tv work and been in a couple of films. So I suppose im fairly famous on my own right but it's mainly because of my ex that I'm known.

Penfold007 · 03/08/2017 20:45

SixesSevens I was at school with the testcard girl. She was fab and an amazing seamstress.

CattyMcCatface · 03/08/2017 20:46

sixesSevens I was told it was me!!

A pupil at my husband's school became an actress in Holby City and was then in something else (but can't remember the name). I've not seen her on TV for ages now though.
