Wow Anne a lot of hard work has gone into this once again. Love it. Once again 6 degrees of separation etc. NASA – an aunt worked for the photography arm and we have photos of most missions from the first USA ventures into space, most never released to the public, all obtained legally but for some reason not public, so we have fab photos of inside the craft, the planets, moon and so on. Ali – well, loved him. We got to know his daughter May May very well when she was with the same record company as our artists, and we went to her 25th birthday party. OJ Simpson: the chase took place along the freeway next to where we were staying (recording an album at the time) and his home was nearby too. Saw the trial live on TV. Many years later our son met him and asked him if he was guilty, he smiled wryly apparently and said he’d been found not guilty, end of conversation for a while. Nicole Brown Simpson – a relative sent up a demo tape some time after asking for management. Still got it somewhere I think. Olivia Newton John – her management managed my husband’s band for a while and he (hubby) knew her sister more than her – back in the late 60s. Cher – we shared the same hairdresser in Beverley Hills. Sat next to her often along with many other celebs including Lionel Richie. We all look fab with wet hair and towels rest assured LOL. Oh and for some mad reason my grandmother loved wrestling on Saturday afternoons on TV…Giant Haystacks, Mick McMannus et al. Oh Anne, this is such fun and great reading. Thanks and thanks Jen.xxxxx
