Very light hearted 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon

[Singlebutmarried]

So you can apparently be connected to Kevin Bacon in 6 connections or less.

I’m connected in two.

My friend did a tv advert with him.

How are you connected IRL to Kevin Bacon?

I’m either a 2 or a 3. I know someone senior at EE and they commissioned him to do their ads.

4

My best friend (a nurse) once gave Prince a vitamin injection (in his bum)

Prince was in a film with Matthew Macfadten who was in a film with Kevin Bacon

I'm one degree. Or zero. I've never quite worked that out

I'm connected twice and both a Bacon rating of 2 as I have met Sir Ian McKellan and Sir Patrick Stewart in a hotel bar. The following morning they were having breakfast at the next table to me.

I can't remember if they were eating bacon though! :)

Mine is 4 via the actor Dominic West.

Oracle of Bacon

Apparently I'm a 3 as I got Tim Curry's autograph when he starred in the Spamalot musical.

1. I've met Elton John, who has a BN of 2.

Although it may be lower than that. DS did his ancestry DNA profile and KB came up as a potential distant cousin.

Three I think. I have spoken a few times to an actor who was in a TV series with an actor who was in a film with Bacon.

I bumped into (literally!) Gabriel Byrne in Dublin a few years ago. He had a Bacon link of 2. Villain Murphy’s aunt taught in our school. He also has a Bscon link of 2. Weird! I assumed because I am in Ireland there’d be no way this would work.

I think mine might be four.

I am very distantly related through my grannys cousin to an actor I have not met who has been in a film with him.

If that doesn't count, my friends BIL is an actor has a Bacon number of 2 which again gives me a Bacon number of 4

Cillian Murphy!

Bscon-I give up!

Well thats eerie as fuck @Procrastination4 as I was also referring to one of those 2 actors!

1. I once ran over Sam West on my bicycle; he was in Notting Hill with Julia Roberts; Julia Roberts was in Flatliners with Kevin Bacon.

I had to do a lot of googling for this!

Jean Costello from Fair City once took a photo of me in a pub. She also starred in Screen Two which was directed by Kenneth Trodd who also directed Circle of Friends which featured Colin Firth who was in Where the Truth Lies with Kevin Bacon.

Must be more than 6 at the very least

No known connection to famous people

3 - I met Barbara Windsor at a theatre party! She has a Bacon score of 2 via Helena Bonham Carter. Swish! 😁

I went to Uni with Orlando Bloom who is 2 so that makes me 3!

I went to Uni with Orlando Bloom who is 2 so that makes me 3!

Ironically the only famous person I've met is Richard Bacon so maybe I can use that otherwise I think mine will be well over 6.

@FusionChefGeoff was that just before he went off to do LOTR? If it was then you and I have a tenuous connection, never mind Kevin Bacon!!!

4 also via the Queen

Wow isn’t this weird !!

It also works with Ben Whishaw apparently.

Where's everyone getting other people's numbers from? Is there a Baconometer somewhere?
