A few real famous people are building have moved here, and originate from here:
Natalie Portman - Sysosset.
Most of my friends know her. We never met personally.
Meadow Soprano aka Jamie Sigler - Jericho
She went to HS w/ me, total skank ; )
Marc Anthony - Brookville
Jennifer Lopez - with Marc Anthony, building their mansion
Billy Joel - Hicksville, also had a mysterious "glass house" supposedly in Brookville
Victoria Gotti - somewhere around here
Nas- he lived in glen cove for awhile. not sure where now
Howard Stern- he was my neighbor most of my childhood, up until early 90's, he lived in old westbury after that, now he's divorced and with some model. I know his kids.

This is all i can pull off hand, if you want to mvoe around the general area, almost everybody who is rich and famous has a home in new york or long island. It's one of the premiere places to live if you got the cash and want the privacy. From the south hampton, Old Westbury, to the gold coast, to manhattan, up to
that rich area where hilary clinton lives(forget the name).

Aside from some indie rockers, I don't think there is really anyone famous from Olympia, WA. Courtney Love did go to my high school for one year though - "I went to school in Olympia...".

i wonder what happened to Mick the original poster. i haven't seen him post in a little while.

Mick are you okay?

 

[timoteus]

I believe he's okay. He regularly posts at AudioKarma and is heavily into vintage gear. I think he still lurks here.

bah i got no one. if you want to count the entire state of delaware (i was raised there) hmm - Rich Gannon was a QB at the Univ. but wasn't really a Delawarean. We had that George Thorogood "BAd to the Bone" guy...The Shue siblings (Elizabeth and that Melrose place guy)...um, I think Michael Spinks is living somewhere in the rich area after he retired from boxing...um...Bob Marley lived here for a few months before he broke big on the music scene, he was a guy on the auto assembly line...clifford brown is the biggie in jazz, still have a festival for him every year...off the top of my head that's it. for the entire state. oh yeah, the gore-tex guy invented gore-tex here, and of course we have the DuPont Rainbow Warriors.

My dad knows brian trottier from way back i think, i got his autograph. I don't know where they all live, but i can probablly assume (for the most part) it doesn't have to be new york. Most players probablly go home to live when they finish up. I'm talking only about the most affluent and rich people that probablly have homes all over the world, it would be silly not to thing they got some ridiculous pad in new york.
