It can be easy to forget that “famous people” were just people at some point in their lives, even if they did have a bit of a head start.

Someone wanted to hear the stories of folks who knew A-listers before they were famous and netizens delivered. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your thoughts and experiences in the comments section down below.

My distant relative was neighbours with Cathy Hilton (Paris Hilton’s mom) and described their mom as the biggest seducer in the neighbourhood. Apparently She was an average looking woman but had the charms to get anyone.

I used to babysit Ben Harper (his grandparents and my father were friends) and went to high school with John Darnielle. Both were already ridiculously talented.
