Well....You guys know Versace right? The italian clothes brand...well when I lived in Milan I went to the same school as Daniel Beck (I think that was his surname...) and he's the son of the Versace's boss...so yeah...he's not REALLY famous but he had bodyguards outside the school gates =P.
Well....I don't really live next to him but Cannavaro lives in Madrid and so do I.
Although he lives pretty far away, but meh.
Can't think of anything else apart from these guys....anyways why did you come up with such a random thread? lol.

I met Nellie, Ted Nugent, the whole band of Warrant, Primus, quite a few Cardinals baseball players, Bill Clinton, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolee.
One who live close but not near is Brad Pitt and is immediate family. They live in Springfield Missouri. I was visiting a friend of mine down there, and was helping him out with one of his client's PC problems. It was Brad Pitt's parents. After talking a bit about how he was IRL and how he was growing up, he walked through the door with Angelina. It shocked the hell out of me, but was pretty cool. I have a signed pic of Brad, Angelina, Brad's parent, and my friend.
They look different in person, not all glammed up, just average people. It was odd talking about everyday things with these two. We stayed about 2 hours after the job was done just talking about things.

Petey Pablo used to live a few towns over from me and Michael Jordan went to college pretty much down the street from me (University of North Carolina Chapel Hill). Oh and Clay Aiken went to the Community College that is less than 5 miles from my house. It's also in my city. I haven't really known anyone famous though.

Back in New York my dad's friend used to live next door to 50 Cent until he became big then he moved out of the place. When we moved to Florida we got to meet the owner of the Yankees and he gave me a Yankee shirt (not autographed sadly..) John Travolta also has an airport station around here, one of my friends got to 'walk the carpet' with him in the movie theatres, but with 99 other people as well lol because of some contest thing. And also Dante Colepepper goes to our high school, but he hates our school so he never supports it, but he likes to support all the other schools and give them brand new schools while our school still stays living strong almost 50 years old.

Heh, where to begin.
The town with the school I graduated from, is a big private living area for many famous people (or famous for what they own) in Texas. Prosper, Texas, small town, but miles upon miles of fertile fields (at least for now). Alot of space for people to build houses secluded by a man made hill for privacy.
The most known is Dion Sanders, of the Dallas Cowboys. He frequents the schools track for morning runs. He took in his nefew to give him a better life, and ultimatly went to my old school.
There is also a guy who owns something real big (part of the Cowboys, I think) and ultimatly owns much of the land in the city. He frequents there on weekends to escape the bustles of city life.
There are also a bunch of country western singers that I can't point out, simply because I don't like country and could care less about who they are.
