My ex (and baby's mother) is Jon Voight's neice. That makes me his ex-nephew-in-law-but-not-really-since-the-ex-and-i-never-married.

I guess I could put Billy Bob Thornton on that list too.

Doesn't Jon Voight spell his name with an H, John.

I don't think so, there was an episode of Seinfeld about that. imdb has it as Jon.

I know Corey Taylor (the singer from Slipknot) who was in the movie "Rollerball" which was directed by John McTiernan (I'm assuming they "know" each other on some level after working on the same movie), who also directed Predator, which starred Arnold Schwarzenegger.

My sisters fiance and his friend often drive Wrestlers from airports to hotels and to matches/performances. They've actually come over and visited w/ them and hung out before performances and such, at her house, etc. They've met a few famous wrestlers (not the rock, or anyone that I recognize--but I don't follow wrestling and I can't recall who they were). She was pretty psyched about it. It's pretty cool, I think.

They also had their picture taken with Dave Chapelle after a performance at a comedy club, but, she doesn't really know him, just had that opportunity w/ her friends.
