I succumbed to peer pressure.
Actually, there are plenty of celebs in Asheville we see all the time. Used to see Andie McDowell at the gym a couple times a week. I helped her daughter once with her homework and she introduced herself as 'Rose'. She's nice but looks nothing like she does on the screen. Never really spoke to her again other than to say 'hi'.
Some pro wrestler that is apparently famous just moved here. I don't know any of them. Gladys Knight (no Pips) lives about a half mile from my house in Fairview. Haven't seen her yet. Harry Anderson is pretty easy to spot.
Of course, anybody living in LA or New York, or Las Vegas for that matter, sees a hundred times that many on a weekly basis, I imagine.
The whole point of the first post was that I found it kind of interesting to see someone I've seen on TV for years and not having a clue as to their name. Never should have mentioned it. Didn't mean any harm.
Ed, BTW, it was in your neighborhood, Ithaca, NY.
