geebsHeh, so I posted about the Bridges thing on Facebook, and M posted this article about 24 Hollywood Celebrities You Didn't Know Were Related. Which, did they heavily pad that list to reach freaking 24? I mean, okay, Rip Torn and Sissy Spacek being cousins, I wouldn't have known that. But they list the freaking Baldwins, the Sheen/Estevezes, Luke and Owen Wilson, James and Dave Franco, and John and Joan Cusack.
I know, I shouldn't be one to talk after missing the Lloyd Bridges but c'mon, the Baldwins and Sheen/Estevezes are Hollywood legacies. Luke and Owen freaking play brothers in half their movies! Joan doesn't necessarily play John's sister, but she's in a lot of his movies too. And lets face it, like Dave would be famous without James Franco.
Like not knowing Zoey Deutch is Lea Thompson's daughter, that's fine. Because firstly, most people would be "who?" and they don't share the same last name. (I only know of her because I just happen to know about young Hollywood starlets, because I'm prolly some kinda weirdo perv) But Elizabeth Olsen practically looks like the thrid Olsen twin, so who doesn't realize they're related?!
But yeah, so I saw an OTND article about Roman Reigns winning the Royal Rumble. I just think of him as that guy who looks like Khal Drogo/Ronan Dex. But his real name is Joe Anoa'i. Who apparently played football for Georgia Tech. Yes, I haven't watched WWE in a long time, nor do I follow college football. But you'd think I would've come across this tidbit at some point. Also, in learning that the Rock was his cousin, I didn't realize they were both related to Yokozuna and Rikishi Fatu.
