When I was 18 I was Sienna Millers nanny. She was a little sweetie but her elder sister Savannah was awful.

Can’t imagine anything worse than being famous for anything at all. Anonymity definitely best!

Why would I reveal who I am?
I like to be incognito.

I'm not in the least bit famous but I move in very famous circles. I'm very discreet and have been friends with these people for over thirty years - they don't seem famous to me at all ?

Well, I'm very famous, but I couldn't possibly tell you who I am. grin

Well done - eight posts slipped in on topic before the republicans managed to bring it around to getting rid of royalty!

There’s a thread on Revolting Breakfasts which you might like to corrupt - best be quick or some other idiot will beat you to it.......

NfkD I’d have politely told him that it was us ‘plebs’ that kept him and his family in the elitist position they are in.

AGAA4 Thu 28-May-20 16:24:51

Maybe not Nfk but it makes him a pleb to put it politely.

Oh dear they really need to be given the chop.

As we will never know the identity of any famous GNs, I would prefer not to know whether there are any - because I will spend my time wondering who’s who.

NfkDumpling Thu 28-May-20 16:16:49

(Actually he said “bloody pleb“)

I once met Prince Philip on a footbridge at Sandringham and he called me a pleb for being on the bridge. Does that make me famous?

I am aware of famous people on MN so it's not out of the question.

Newatthis Thu 28-May-20 13:55:48

I've met lots of famous people including many members of the royal family but not famous myself.

I was thinking that there are still quite a few ‘mature’ women in the public eye so I wondered if by any chance any were GN members.

Me. I was captain of my team on University Challenge. We got to the final, and in the semi-final got the highest score of 415.
I know I was famous, because I got recognised in the street by complete strangers.
It was a few decades ago now though.

That’s me PensionPat unless there are more than one of us. I wonder if we have a parent of an actor or artist, or even a film star.

I’m sure, on the whole, we are proud of our kids whatever they do.

Elizabeth1 Thu 28-May-20 13:50:22

I’m famous I’m someones granny wink

A poster once said that she was the mother of a famous author.

JenniferEccles Thu 28-May-20 13:37:55

Obviously I am not expecting anyone to reveal their identity but I do wonder if there are any incognito!
