I apparently made the cover of VOGUE magazine a few years back.

A prank from a [well meaning] co-worker.

I can't look at this and not hear Tom Jones screaming "She's a Ladaay!"

Not me, but the young bass player for the Dave Matthews Band, Stefan Lessard, lived right across the street from me . . . until one morning when his house burned to the ground!! We watched from our bedroom window as the TV news crews set up their bucket trucks in our yard.

I have sold BMWs to Sissy Spacek, Sam Shepard. Porsche to John Grisham. The Six Million Dollar Man (Lee Majors) ordered a hub-cap for his 7-series from me once, and then bitched because it didn't come in from BMW chromed. Damn Californians!

I’m pretty famous. As a ups driver everyone is hunting me down in my delivery area for their Amazon packages. Kinda big deal if you ask me

[Darth One]

Asking for a friend : does being a camgirl count as famous?

That's a great story love it!!

I've been in 3 major motion pictures, 5 TV shows and currently filming Shazaam 2 & Dr Strange 2, awaiting vaginas to be thrown at me.

My son is an actor who has a main role in a very popular BBC TV show currently! His agent was supposed to take him to meet some casting directors in the US this summer but, due to covid, that’s been put on hold. That’s all I’m going to say as I don’t want to embarrass him LOL!

/thread. When you're a celebrity TO celebrities, you're famous alright.

I used to call the UPS guys "Brown Santa" and then people started getting offended (coincidentally, said it in front of a few people when the delivery driver that day was Hispanic). Had to explain it wasn't a racial thing, it was a "the uniform is brown, the truck is brown, everything is brown, and he brings me presents" thing. Oh well.

When I worked for UPS in Germany, some folks thought the trucks looked like the German version of hearses. "Leichenwagen"

I had dinner with Jimmy Butler. This makes me famous.

[Littlebear]

My Great Aunt rented to Marilyn Monroe & Milton Berle on Fire Island.
My pop was friends & media buyer for both dead Kennedy bros, & Mario Cuomo.
My step mom was head media buyer for Ronald Reagan.

And I can't get no respect on a friggin' BMW forum.

People get offended by anything these days so it’s no surprise. They don’t wash our trucks during winter because our on site car wash is closes, so we all write “ the real Santa” on the back of our trucks lol. With that said I’m glad Christmas is over lol

You are in Cville lol. I met Dave and knew his mom. Ran Kluge Estate winery (Controller) for years, Dave's moms house winery across the street so we chatted.

I ran a charity for years, and got to know Ted Leonsis a bit, had dinner with him.
Just chatted with Justin Verlanders Dad last weekend.

Biggest is Dave Grohl, we grew up and ran in the same group through HS. Good HS friend is his Foo band manager.

Bunch others I've met and hung with but never "knew"

Bimmer related that I don't think I ever shared. My first car was a 1979 E21 320i. It belonged to a big time Hollywood agent who represented some of the biggest names in Hollywood in the 60's and 70's. The car was a POS by the time he gave it to me. I remember picking it up from his house in Bel Air and accidentally keeping it in 2nd gear the whole hour drive home. I was surprised it didn't blow up, it took 10-14 seconds to get to 60, it smelled like what I would think Benson & Hedges smelled like, and there were weird stains in the trunk of all places. I absolutely beat the crap out of that car, shifting to neutral, redlining it and dropping it into drive as I voiced off the rev limiter. Probably made that auto trans look like it took a grenade.

He had some other pretty nice cars but I like to think he would pick up some of his clients and take them to lunch in my bimmer every once and awhile. Maybe Jack Nicholson-because that's the type of clients he actually had judging from the photos in his house-did coke in the back seat with Janice Dickinson and now some kid is doing parking brake drifts in a KMart parking lot with it. The tranny died not soon after and we broke all the tail lights pushing it home with my buddy's '87 Civic.

I came within a hairsbreadth of having one as my first car but my father killed the deal. Same with the 1976 Dino. I ended up with a 1982 Mk II VW Scirocco. I loved that car until it was totaled.
