<p>^^I feel like he’d be happier if you said that than if you ran up calling him HP. Like if you told Elijah Wood that you loved in in the Bumblebee Flies Anyway, or, even better, as Videogame boy #2 in Back to the Future (ETA: ) Part II.</p>
<p>My parents are friends with the parents of an actor on Gossip Girl, who I’ve met due to this connection.</p>
<p>Steven Kellogg, the author, came to my elem school and signed copies of his books.</p>
<p>My mom’s grad school professor was once the Kennedy sons’ baseball coach.</p>
<p>We were about three yards away from Arne Duncan one time.</p>
<p>One of my friend’s other friend’s great-aunt is Tom Felton’s parents’ neighbor. OMG</p>

<p>I accidentally bumped into Emma Watson twice at Brown, and talked with her for a bit the second time. I also ate next to Alan Rickman (Snape) in Brooklyn once and chatted it up with him, too. So basically I’m down with half of the main cast of Harry Potter.</p>
<p>^ awesome!!! What’s alan rickman like?</p>
<p>And I’d imagine a fan club following Emma Watson everywhere.</p>
<p>Hmm nothing much…I know some religious people but I don’t know if you can call them celebrities. I met Sanjay Dutt’s ex-wife - a model. My great-uncle is friends with the ex-President of India so he’s met tons of famous people. My great-grandfather was a freedom fighter so he’s met with Gandhi and some other famous freedom fighters. Our family friend is a glamour photographer so he’s friends with half of Bollywood, I’ve met a famous director, pool champ Pankaj Adwani and I know the sister of Deepika Padukone but in terms of me actually meeting someone really famous, not much.</p>
<p>I met Eartha Kitt, who sings “Santa Baby” when she performed in The Wizard of Oz at Times Square. She was a friend of my best friend’s mom. (I was 4.)</p>

<p>I know a guy who once acted opposite George Clooney (short scene in unsuccessful movie BUT STILL GEORGE CLOONEY!!!)</p>
<p>My mom used to work for the ambassador to Japan, who got the posting because he is tight with Obama. I can probably hit half of the political class of America within 4 degrees of separation.</p>
<p>I met Sandra Day-O’Connor when she was still a judge.</p>
<p>This girl I met at camp’s music teacher’s former student double-dates with Zack Efron.</p>
<p>If I met Hugh Laurie, I would immediately call him Bertie Wooster. Personally. After I had fainted.</p>
<p>I lived close to Paul Allen and Bill Gates, and I met Bill. Heck, I lived 5 minutes away from his castle. That’s about it though.</p>
<p>my closest relation to a celebrity is being one. :O</p>
<p>A friend of mine was compared to the little fat kid on “Up” in the yearbook in the celeb look-a-like section. That’s about as close as I am to a celebrity.</p>
