Neverland Ranch(MJ's House) is in my hometown 20 minutes south, went there a few times as a kid.

MJ's trial was held at the courthouse in my town.

Robin Williams started out in the conservatory at the college here.

A couple of the girls who were in the group that won American Juniors are from here. We sing in the same choirs & went to Europe together a couple summers ago. they're huuge dorks but wayy chill lol.

Zac Effron lived about 20 min north of here.

I'm pretty sure that's it.

Fall Out Boy lived a few miles away from me. Some of my friends older siblings would go see them play at garage bands and gigs and stuff, and chill with them after.

I live in vermont. . . lol. That should say it all. But i know the Simpsons was made here!!! In springfield, i'm not from there though. The closest to famous I can think of is the one girl
Sherry Lamberton Is a really good singer, she moved to Nashville to make a record, butdidnt make it big. But shes a HUGE celeb in my town. My Uncle is on her new record. And she was friends with my grammpy. So I know her. Shes really nice and put on a benafit for my grammpy when he got cancer. But to sum it all up. Nope, no celebs.

I've learned:
if you settle for less than you deserve, you will get even less than you settled for.
no matter how hard you try, some people will never be sorry, but thats okay, because they don't have to be sorry to forgive them.
no matter what, someone will ALWAYS love you, even if it's not the person you want it to be.
best friends are more vauable than anything.
and most of all, love wins.
