If you are famous..

[jennie0412]

How did you get famous? What for?
I'm incredibly curious and it's been slow tonight

Meet*

Not at all but I did hair and makeup for someone related to Jean Shrimpton the other day and have done James Packer's former wife too. Closest I have come to fame.

I'm not famous but well known locally as I was a teacher for years and am now a private tutor.

DD finds it very embarrassing when random people at her school announce I taught them or their brother or sister.

I can't go to the local farmers market without being stopped by some parent or another. Very rock and roll .

My mum used a gas engineer the other week who was telling her about his kids tutor, then he spotted a photo of me on the piano and realised the connection.

I had a new student come for a consultation last weekend and the mum told me she's the envy of all her friends as she got to the top of my waiting list first. Apparently I'm "very sought after". Who knew...

My dad made a tit out of himself on a UK gameshow. Hilarious and humiliating all at the same time. For a while everywhere he went people knew him. It's died down a lot now but still the odd person does.

I am not JKR, MH or SH!

Are you Lisa Jewell?

My sister used to babysit Matt Hancock's kids. He never even spoke to her when she arrived, left it all for his wife to do.

I’m extremely famous. So famous that during the daytime I teach maths at my local high school and drive round in a 6 year old Kia Sportage.

@ifiwasascent

I was on the chase and am always on the bloopers so yeah I'm famous 💅🏻

Oh my god, please tell me you are the fanny schmelar lady.

@Tunnocks34

Omg, is it really you???

I can't believe you're on MN 😍

🤣🤣🤣

Love your post 👍🏼

Nobody's guessed it, but I am friends with some of the authors guessed!

@Hopefullynamechanged935

I'm googling like mad now 🤣

Can't believe I didn't think of AC??? Is that you?

Not famous myself, but my best mate is married to a guy who used to play with the Prodigy and toured with them for a bit.. he now produces his own music.

And a lady I worked with used to do beauty therapy at Pinewood studios (many many years ago); very sought after treatments, and knew lots of actresses and actors there.

I’m related to someone in a very famous (American) rock band from the 90s. they still do arena tours and are household name but their main fame was probably early to mid 90s. He does get still get recognised apparently but he’s not the frontman.

Haha not guessed yet. I'm a tier below CM, more successful over here than TF. I have written six books to answer a PP's question, and all six have been bestsellers (I got very lucky very early).

I'm not famous, but when I was much younger I went out with someone in a famous 90s group who had a big hit in the charts.They were in magazines (a lot) like Smash Hits, Melody Maker and the NME, and also toured America and Europe, etc. He was in another band afterwards, but very sadly passed away at quite a young age, a good few years back. I'd lost touch with him and I had since got married, and was expecting my first child, when I saw this person's obituary in The Independant. It was a big shock.

I'm not famous but am a successful screenwriter and not very successful actor. The last time I was on TV my performance got dragged here and someone on Mumsnet said I was "not very good at acting."

My DP is much more famous than me, not a household name but is regularly on TV, had a major BBC2 documentary made about his life and work, has a group of fans who follow him all around the world, and has had a couple of stalkers. He's worked with more or less every celebrity from the acting world who you could name (including currently working with a one-name celebrity who's one of the biggest global celebrities around. Think Madonna level of fame.) I regularly spend time with famous people both through my own career and through him.

I would like someone from Ghosts to be on here so they can read about how fabulous everyone thinks the show is!

Also someone from Outnumbered for the same reason.

I’m not famous but earlier this year someone connected to politics made me famous for a bit. Am waiting for the second lockdown to see if he makes me famous again.

@babbi, I saw your post and I immediately thought of Bob Probert. Am I right?

I met him in the UK when he was on tour. Lovely chap, but if you weren't into hockey, you just wouldn't know.

@Hopefullynamechanged935 CA?

My sister is a best selling author. So I’m not famous at all but I get to experience the edges of it at times such as looking after the kids backstage whilst she’s being interviewed on tv or radio. She’s also made a tonne of money and is generous with it which is nice.
She worked hard for years and a lot of it is luck as to who picks you up and if your style fits into the zeitgeist.

Welcome to the club.

My boss husband is quite famous and has an Oscar. I'm friends with the daughter of a very famous songwriter.

@Hopefullynamechanged935 was your mum a teacher?
