Well, I guess I can say I have seen a few "sort of celebrities". I live in Brad Pitt's hometown. I've never met him, but his brother, Doug, also lives here. His brother owns a computer business and we use his company for our office computers, although he always sends out a worker if we have problems, so I hadn't met him personally. But, I did run into into Doug at my daughter's gymnastics class a few weeks ago. My heart just dropped! The newspaper photos don't do him justice. In person, he really looked a lot more like Brad than I would have thought!

Also, a couple years ago, when Brad & Jen came for a visit, my cousin, who is a photographer, was hired to go out to the local Pitt homestead for family pics with Jen, Mom, Dad, Doug (brother), and sis and all nieces/nephews. Of course, they had to sign a contract that the pics wouldn't ever end up in a tabloid and that they wouldn't advertise that they took the Pitt family pics! But, since I was related I got to see the whole family album. Pretty cool!

Also, Aaron Buerge, the guy who made "The Bachelor" big lives here. I've ran into him twice. Once at Target and once at a local restaurant "not his". When I saw him at Target, it was week before Valentine's Day, and our local TV station just happened to be there doing a show about V-Day, and when they saw him, they pounced, literally! I didn't even realize it was him until the cameras pounced on him like that. I guess we have paparazzi even in our small little town.

Oh, and I have met the 2 most beautiful stars in our town........my 2 gorgeous children! Hee. Hee. They twinkle with the best of them!
