This is a game, for entertainment purposes only!

I always thought SL would be a great place for celebrities to hide out and have some fun. Paparazzi in RL keep them locked up at home or wearing disguises just to go to the store. I imagine many would like to be able to mingle among the "common folk" without a lot of attention and SL could be the perfect place for that.

So, have fun and name the celebrities that are here among us. You dont have to state why you think so, but your welcome to in the spirit of entertainment. You are allowed more than once answer if you wish. I will start...

I think Pete Fats is Robin Williams.

The King, Jim Morrison, Jimmy Hendrix, Jerry Garcia, Buddy Holly, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Kurt Cobain.

Oh, and Syd Barrett from his padded chamber

I wouldn't be surprised if there were lots of actors, models, and other entertainment types of folks. I think it's pretty cool that you can have a completely real conversation with someone if you want and not have to deal with you public persona for a while.

Bill Gibson, because he is Neal Stephenson's arch-nemesis.

^kidding, of course. There is a certain Slashdot article which would seem to lend credibility to this, however...

Nice way to deflect, Loki...

We all know you're Paulie Shore.

Despite the rumors, I've never appeared in a major film. I am nobody famous. Really! You just gotta believe me!

I was just wondering about this the other day.

Anyway, I just KNOW Trent Reznor is here somewhere. And I will find him and he will fall in love with me. But I'll never know it was him, my One True Love, and I'll end up blowing him off. Ah, bittesweet.

i'd imagine that if there is anyone famous in RL here, then they're gonna be super hush hush for obvious reasons

That must be why he & Jennifer split, he spent too much time online.

James Miller once spent a day following me around insisting I was Rosie O'Donnell.

Ok ok my cover is blown.

You can actually seem me in several movies filmed in Australia....

In Mad Max III Beyond Thunderdome I am 'Guy crawling in pig shit #2'
In Fortress I am prison inmate #31 and 'Flying through the air cyborg close up'
In Supercop -- guy in crowd next to cop car.

And of course that mucho classic Aussie film 'Razorback' I actually play the lead role.
I'm the guy *inside* the pig... it was made from a converted VW bug.

Siggy.

(yes this is all true).

Fortress was a kick ass movie. One would think it is a cable late night crapfest, but it is a well done Sci-fi film. I totally hated Kurtwood Smith after seeing it. Even seeing him years later in "That 70's show," I would still shake my fist at him. He's good at playing a prick.

Did you by any chance get to meet Warwick Capper, who played "Braindead Prisoner?"

Wow! I always thought Pete was Steve Martin.

But, I know Schwan is Jim Carrey. The real reason he is cutting back in SL is to start filming his new movie. Me, Myself And The Sheep.

Considering Philip farmed 8 mil from the founder of ebay because he was playing SL, I'd say it's highly likely.

Can you blame celebrities? It's a chance to escape the fame.
