[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At first I laughed. Then I thought "Christ I have!  A lot!"

ExW - Not directly famous, but three of four grandparents were internationally famous. Authors, artists, etc. Fourth grandparent was famous in his state.

Dated a woman from a big business, charitable family. She and the family name are instantly recognizable in their home state and surrounding states (big states too).

When I lived in New York 20 + years ago I dated a woman who was super duper famous. You would instantly recognize the name and face. She was awesome as long as she wasn't connected with the business.

Before that I dated a woman who was Hollywood famous in her own right. Her grandfather was sup-duper uber famous. [/b]

Famous people are frequently not happy people. The pressure they feel 24/7 is unimaginable.  Most who I have met would give it up in a heartbeat. [/quote]

Drew Barrymore?[/quote]

Good guess, but try again!  More famous. Much. [/quote]

Brigdet Fonda?[/quote]

Kate Hudson

The Hearst woman?[/quote]

All good guesses, but nope.

And I wouldn't confirm anyway.  To me, that would serve no purpose other than using a person's name.  And I don't think that's right.  But, thats's not the point of this post.

OP - Dating or being friends with a famous person can be just as ordinary as can be.  The most important thing to remember is that famous people are people first.  Then famous.  They are, generally, just like you and me. They have feelings and passions and thoughts.  They want to be known for who they are.  Not what they do.  Not what the media portrays them as and not as the characters they portray.

So, for example, a famous scientist wants to be known as a person.  With a passion for science and discovery.  But they have children (maybe).  Family.  Hopes and dreams about things other than their public persona.  That's what it is really what it is.

Do any of you want to be known as "Margaret! - The Most Awesome Fed Attorney EVER!"?  Wouldn't you prefer to be known as a great mother, wife, daughter, sister, neighbor?  They do too . . .
