Your claim to fame.

This is almost like a 'six degrees of separation' kind of question. They don't have to be a major celebrity but do you have some connection to any famous people? No matter how tenuous or abstract it is give it a mention. Or maybe you have no famous links at all.

I will give you mine. My best friend used to go to gym training with the boy who was the stunt double for Hit-Girl. My brother's friend's dad's brother is the guitarist in the band Jamiroquai. My mum's friend's husband's sister is the original voice of Lara Croft.
Some of them are very tenuous indeed.

EDIT: I just remembered that I used to know a girl who's uncle was Timothy Dalton aka James Bond.

My Uncle has won the Norwegian championship in fishing 7 times and the world championship 1 time. So I guess he's famous in the fishing comunity? =p He is also a widely known chef in Norway, for his sea dishes. He has learned everything he knows about fishing and cooking himself.

I take it with a pinch of salt, though. My gran is completely fucking insane.

Too many obscure or unknown claims to mention. Most in Serbia through my parents.

I was on a TV show once... and I'm sure some people think that some of my lecturers are 'famous' .
