What is your Bacon number? (The degrees of separation between you and Kevin Bacon.)

My wife is cousins with Noah Wyle, who was in A Few Good Men with him, so mine is 3. (I haven't actually met Noah.)

Mine is 3

kls-sg.bsky.social•90 days ago

not sure about Bacon, but i have 2 to “Daryl Dixon”
A guy i went to high school with (and friendly with) was in the movie Rumor with Norman Reedus (also James Marsden, Lena Headey and Kate Hudson). Clearly, I practically famous by association 🤣🙄

elindbloom.bsky.social•90 days ago

42. I think.

sonsofliberty.vote•89 days ago

2, Cousin is Kevin Costner.

ahamblin.bsky.social•90 days ago

Johnny Depp high-fived me at a Hollywood Vampires concert; he was in Black Mass with Kevin Bacon, so my Bacon number is 2.

valkyriesong.bsky.social•90 days ago

When I was a kid, I met Paul Newman when he came to PIR to race back in the day.

cublet.bsky.social•89 days ago

He was just on an advert on my tv does that count as a connection?

madbarchetta.bsky.social•90 days ago

I got six, starting with his costar in A Few Good Men, Kiefer Sutherland and ending with my former family doc, Dr. Goldblum. I bet you can guess the intermediary steps. 😁

knifeprty78.bsky.social•89 days ago

Mine is 3. I worked with someone whose college roommate was an extra in Stir of Echoes. The extra’s uncle was the director.

knifeprty78.bsky.social•89 days ago

Just thought of another way with 3 too. My 2nd cousin once removed is author Louise Erdrich who was on Faces of America with Henry Louis Gates. Gates has a show Finding Your Roots which once had Bacon on.

therealsec.bsky.social•89 days ago

Oh, wow, I’m currently reading The Mighty Red! It’s great! I’m either 2, 3, or 4–I have two connections but can’t remember the particulars.

knifeprty78.bsky.social•89 days ago

I love her books. 💗

therealsec.bsky.social•89 days ago

She is one of my favorite authors—and also a fierce anti-censorship advocate.

healingin2025.bsky.social•51 days ago

Yeah. And the funny thing is that Kevin Bacon found out he and his wife were distant cousins.

dmiller2300.bsky.social•90 days ago

I have a friend who went to high school with director Dave Koepp, and so got to hang out on scene during filming of Stir of Echoes, thus getting to know Bacon. So, 2.

ericmoorephoto.bsky.social•89 days ago

I went to high school with celebrity photographer Sam Jones. He’s photographed him and did an interview on show Off Camera. So 2 degrees.

ericmoorephoto.bsky.social•89 days ago

I have another friend Jeff Lipsky who is also a celebrity photographer and between them they have shot everyone in Hollywood. For example, I’m 2 degrees from Taylor Swift.

chaosfeminist.bsky.social•89 days ago

We need an app for this

itsjustpat.bsky.social•90 days ago

My friend’s husband is a set designer who built the newsstand that Tom Cruise goes to, early in the film “A Few Good Men,” so I think I’m 3 degrees?

nancybryan.bsky.social•90 days ago

A very good friend of mine worked for Oprah and Oprah knows all kinds of interesting people, so I think I’m 3 degrees separated from lots of famous people…including Kevin Bacon.

thesavagegarden.bsky.social•89 days ago

toomanydaves.bsky.social•90 days ago

Mine is four. I follow Machine Pun on BlueSky (and they follow me), their wife is cousins with Noah Wyle, who was in A Few Good Men with him, so mine is 4. (I haven't actually met Noah.)

justbreathe0507.bsky.social•90 days ago

A+ 😂

jer7138.bsky.social•89 days ago

Well, seeing that I’m Mexican-American, there is no Becon number for me. 😉

carpedi81040920.bsky.social•89 days ago

He and family owned house across the street in Philly where I worked in mid 80s.. I’d see and walk past him (and his locally famous dad) periodically and once, he commented (nicely) to me being pregnant-his wife Kyra was also pregnant with their first..

dragonwings78.bsky.social•90 days ago

3. My daughter is friends with Tom Hanks nephew and I’ve met him. Tom Hanks and Kevin Bacon were in Apollo 13 together.

maggieb64.bsky.social•90 days ago

We went to the same vet. I saw both Bacon and his wife there

gregrstep.bsky.social•89 days ago

David Bowie apparently used Kevin Bacon as a model for his American accent. In 1984 or '85 I was walking down Pitt Street in Sydney and David Bowie walked out of the Hilton Hotel and bowled me over. Is that 2 degrees?

shonanchris.bsky.social•89 days ago

I went to high school with Piper Perabo who was in Cheaper by the Dozen with Steve Martin who was in Planes , Trains and Automobiles with Kevin Bacon

mariablack.bsky.social•90 days ago

1 degree now that he worked with Eddie Murphy. I know/ knew Eddie. Or is that 2 degrees? 🤣🤷🏻‍♀️

404apathy.bsky.social•90 days ago

Gotta be in excess of 37.

phrebh.bsky.social•89 days ago

My social one is 3, my movie one is 2.

arewethereyet53.bsky.social•89 days ago

Omg I loved Noah Wyle in ER days. He was my crush big time. :)

As far as Bacon, I worked with the guy that played the bad cowboy that Bacon saved Sarah Jessica Parker from when they snuck out to go dancing in Footloose. So 1?

janeknowsshit.bsky.social•89 days ago

I was an extra in a made for TV movie with Tim Matheson who was in Animal House with Kevin Bacon so my degree is 2.

charlotte-spicer.bsky.social•89 days ago

One of his college roommates at Temple was my boyfriend in the summer of 1984. Footloose had just come out and was a hit. My guy was so jealous he wouldn't shut up about it. So petty.

herrific.bsky.social•90 days ago

Three. I once hired a performer who has a Bacon number of two.

aggiebrett.bsky.social•90 days ago

Met and talked to Ron Howard about APOLLO 13 which co-starred...Kevin Bacon.

So... 2?

marksprings.bsky.social•90 days ago

I think it's one. That's the number of people between you and KB.

bookerforte.bsky.social•90 days ago

Two is correct. Best to picture it as the number of steps from you to him.

marksprings.bsky.social•90 days ago

If you know Bacon, there is no separation is how I interpret it.

bookerforte.bsky.social•90 days ago

I might have misunderstood but I'm pretty sure Kevin Bacon has a Bacon number of 0 and every step from there adds one.

Not sure it's important enough for us to spend too long arguing about it though ☺️

marksprings.bsky.social•90 days ago

A good case could be made for that.

Tomorrow's not a work day, we have all night. 😁

You'd think after all these years they'd have the rules posted somewhere.

ogmiriote.bsky.social•89 days ago

2! I was an extra in a movie with Bill Paxton

digitmusic.bsky.social•89 days ago

I’ve watched him in movies, so it is a 1st degree for me!!

dragonfly64.bsky.social•89 days ago

My closest guess would be 452,398.

blahblah7.bsky.social•89 days ago

Guaranteed to be no higher than 4 lol

joyseacrew.bsky.social•90 days ago

Day-played on the set of "Wild Things" in Miami and worked for/with him... he seemed pretty cool. 😎

educ8r73.bsky.social•90 days ago

Mine is probably something like 6,347? 😂

kstroopwafel.bsky.social•90 days ago

That’s me, too. And I’m fine with it. peace from Kevin in DC

sjw32142.bsky.social•89 days ago

That's actually not possible. It's really difficult to get a number above 10. Mine is 4, for example and I am an absolute nobody from Australia.

nudepotato.bsky.social•89 days ago

1,664,567,966,446,557,556,069

adamurquhart.bsky.social•89 days ago

Zero

savtasugarshub.bsky.social•90 days ago

My Kevin Bacon number is 3. As far as I know. (Could be closer these days). As a young actor, I played Debbie Rush’s sister in a play, then she played Meryl Streep’s sister in Taming of the Shrew. Then Meryl was in The River Wild w Kevin. Whew!

stellamay7.bsky.social•89 days ago

Mine is 3. Jackie Chan was in Around the World in 80 days w/ Luke Wilson, who was in My Dog Skip w/ Kevin Bacon. I met Jackie by chance on my birthday in 1999.

emmettfurrow.bsky.social•89 days ago

I was an extra on a set with Robert De Niro, Morgan Freeman, Michael Douglas, Kevin Kline, and Mary Steeburgen. I'm sure about De Niro (Sleepers), but the others might have worked with him as well, so a soft "1".

emmettfurrow.bsky.social•89 days ago

Or is that "2"?

maxthyme.bsky.social•89 days ago

Dunno but it runs through Baywatch I bet because I house sat for Jimi Jamison.

superfuzz11.bsky.social•90 days ago

I follow you. Does that make mine 4?

flaxmoore.bsky.social•89 days ago

3. I appeared on Reading Rainbow with Levar Burton, who was in Blizzard with Whoopi Goldberg, who was in Destination Anywhere with Kevin Bacon.

jamescalbraith.co.uk•89 days ago

Mine is three, and I did it the official way (an extra in production with Malachi Kirby)

agirlnamedlu.bsky.social•89 days ago

I waited on him and Kyra once. Does that count?

bragrman.bsky.social•89 days ago

How concrete or tenuous does the connection have to be to count?

bragrman.bsky.social•89 days ago

I once stage-managed a school production and Cate Blanchette's children were in it, and she was helping out backstage, so I think that makes my number 3 - she's not worked with him that I know of, but half the Marvel cast have, so she's a 2.

cley13.bsky.social•90 days ago

My side of the family was forced to disown him. The whole dancing controversy tore the family apart.

romneytm.bsky.social•89 days ago

He was the voice of Balto, at DreamWorks I worked with a dozen or more folks who worked directly with him on that film. So a 3 from multiple sources… 🥓🥓🥓

catmom1955.bsky.social•89 days ago

I met, and had a picture taken with Colin Firth, who was in "Where the Truth Lies" with Kevin Bacon.

Is that 1 or 2?

bethannewills.bsky.social•90 days ago

I have a friend whose Dad is a famous screenwriter and her Grandfather wrote in early TV comedy. She grew up around celebrities and her Dad has worked with so many, it’s gotta be 2, 3 or 4!

nier63.bsky.social•90 days ago

I eat bacon.

junapalm.bsky.social•89 days ago

I love bacon, that must be worth at least something? Right?

tea-n-me.bsky.social•89 days ago

This is such a good thread!

jocelynmcb.bsky.social•89 days ago

I worked at a hotel where the cast/crew stayed filming a movie starring Andrew McCarthy. He came in our bar many nights, so my number is 2.

michele207.bsky.social•90 days ago

847,962

sotirazbook.bsky.social•89 days ago

2. I met Billy Bob Thornton in the early 2000s and he filmed Jayne Mansfields Car with Kevin Bacon in 2012.

doomaflatchie.bsky.social•89 days ago

My aunt’s cousin was a writer on Top Gun, so me>aunt>aunt’s cousin>Tom Cruise>Kevin Bacon=5

lifstr.bsky.social•90 days ago

What's the population of the United States? That's probably my degree of separation from Bacon. It's not about him. It's about the fact that I don't know anybody who knows anybody, far as I'm aware.

susande.bsky.social•89 days ago

Does volunteering at a music festival he played at count? I don't think I met him.

johnnnoone.bsky.social•90 days ago

I dated a gal that had a scene with him in "He said, she said." So 1 degree of separation.

crenem.bsky.social•90 days ago

I saw him speak at a conference, so does that make me one degree away? If so, you guys are now two degrees away. You’re welcome!

tilyoure90.bsky.social•89 days ago

My cousin was in JFK with him. So, 2?

stockj.bsky.social•90 days ago

1. Was the only other customer with him and his golden retriever in my liquor store on the UWS. I gave his dog a pat and just smiled at him. NYErs are cool like that

spicyerin.bsky.social•90 days ago

We share a birthday. How many degrees is that?

cjmcg1966.bsky.social•90 days ago

Ok. So, I kissed Sean Penn in 11th grade. His brother was in Footloose with Kevin. Is that two?

db2k.bsky.social•89 days ago

I met Adam duritz at a counting crows concert and he met Kevin bacon. 2.

kbizzle13.bsky.social•90 days ago

paulacweston.bsky.social•90 days ago

2

I know someone who worked on a movie set with him.

tatertots4me.bsky.social•89 days ago

One of my highschool teachers also taught Tom Cruise, who was in A Few Good Men - so 2?

tatertots4me.bsky.social•89 days ago

Hang on, I just realized I can do better - I've met Buzz Aldrin and there are pics of him meeting Kevin Bacon.

picassobox.bsky.social•90 days ago

realroffs.bsky.social•89 days ago

I watched Footloose and JFK and A Few Good Men and Murder in the First and finally City Hall on Showtime and there’s bacon in the freezer.🥶

Uk in Melancholia w/ Keifer Sutherland.

KS in Flatliners with KB.

mirandelion.bsky.social•89 days ago

I have no Bacon number, but I wish he, Kyra, and Sosie were here.

linhith.bsky.social•90 days ago

My Dad's cousin was George Grizzard (mostly Broadway actor), who was in something with him. I'm not sure what, because my Dad told me this years ago, and by the time he died at 85 he couldn't remember anymore. So mine is 3 also, so far as I know.

ravensophia.bsky.social•90 days ago

It's a stretch, but here goes:

Years ago, I was walking home alone at around 3am on a dark, unsafe road. Amy Seimetz pulled up and asked if I needed a ride. I accepted. Amy was in "Alien: Covenant" with Billy Crudup. Billy was in "Sleepers" with Kevin Bacon. So, a tenuous 4?

Thanks again to Amy!

full-of-stars.bsky.social•89 days ago

My bacon number is 3 from multiple routes. But it’s kinda cheating as I went to a famous art school so a ton of actors came out of it.

full-of-stars.bsky.social•89 days ago

I should clarify, I went to that school, but I got out and made a career in NOT art lol I am “Le Disappointe.”

full-of-stars.bsky.social•89 days ago

Omg hang on. I worked on a play that Ken Bethea of The Old 97s was in (killer band btw), and Ken (and the whole band) hilariously appeared in The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special with Kevin Bacon! My Bacon number is 2!

marksprings.bsky.social•90 days ago

My sibling taught Omarosa, who worked for Trump.

So, not a Bacon connection, but a Pig's Ass connection.

prog-r0k.bsky.social•90 days ago

Ah, but Omarosa was romantically involved with Michael Clarke Duncan, who was in Green Mile with Tom Hanks, who was in Apollo 13 with Kevin Bacon

marksprings.bsky.social•90 days ago

Excellent, I'll mention that to my sibling. Thanks.

justbreathe0507.bsky.social•90 days ago

kim-b.bsky.social•89 days ago

Edward Norton is my first cousins’ cousin on their father’s side. His Bacon number is 2, so mine is 4.
(Norton-to-Bacon connections are extensive!)

jpebbles19.bsky.social•90 days ago

Not sure about Kevin Bacon but I'm 4° from Secretary Pete B

pandasophist.bsky.social•90 days ago

One. But I have met Obama (when he was a Senator, before he blew up and got super famous thus not as big a brag as it sounds), so it is kinda cheating with modern Dems for me.

jpebbles19.bsky.social•90 days ago

I've met Obama too lol

pandasophist.bsky.social•90 days ago

Boom, your degrees of separation to Sec. Pete just got a lot shorter

vermonter222.bsky.social•90 days ago

I went to vet school one class behind Noah Wyle’s sister, so that makes 4?

rtatcchick69.bsky.social•90 days ago

I met Rick Springfield on the 80's Cruise (for like 5 minutes😂), who starred in Ricki and the Flash with Meryl Streep, who starred in The River Wild with Kevin Bacon. Is that 3? Does it count?😂

tea-n-me.bsky.social•89 days ago

Following you now & I vote that it counts😊

ltaldobraine.bsky.social•89 days ago

Two. Dr Oz was (unfortunately) a part of my extended family when I was married, and he knew Oprah who has met Kevin Bacon.

oakborn.bsky.social•90 days ago

My Bacon number is 4.
My brother has been friends with Kate Capshaw's brother forever, plus:

lmason.bsky.social•90 days ago

Sister's husband dated someone who he interviewed on his Six Degrees podcast, so 3?

sethpalooka.bsky.social•89 days ago

Kevin Bacon was in "JFK" with Kevin Costner. Kevin Costner was in "Wyatt Earp" with Jim Caviezel. I have met Jim Caviezel three times and also have met several family members.

So 3 degrees ... 4? Math is not my strong suit.

edubeaks.com•90 days ago

Doesn’t the scale go up to 7? Like how everyone is connected to each other within 7 degrees of separation (people)?

kellyscaletta.bsky.social•90 days ago

That's the premise.

gentle7.bsky.social•89 days ago

Reba McEntire was in Tremors with Kevin Bacon. My high school English teacher was best friends with Reba in college, so mine is 3.

ponymint.bsky.social•90 days ago

I had dinner with him in Chicago. Does that count?

smilingspirit.bsky.social•90 days ago

My only connection to Hollywood is that I once met Dan Aykroyd in Kingston ON & I have his autograph!
ChatGPT:

1. Dan Aykroyd starred in Ghostbusters with Sigourney Weaver.
2. Sigourney Weaver was in The Ice Storm with Kevin Bacon.

Boom! That’s just 2 degrees of Kevin Bacon through Dan Aykroyd!

teacherlynnm.bsky.social•90 days ago

I guess I would be the same then because I am from Kingston and everyone here has met Dan Aykroyd at some point lol. Plus I went to school with Gord Downie, who was friends with Dan- how is this all connected to Kevin Bacon again?

smilingspirit.bsky.social•90 days ago

Lol yes, it was more than 20 yrs ago and I remember he said he lives there haha. 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon is a game where you connect yourself (or anyone) to Kevin Bacon through people you’ve met or are connected to, tracing the path through movies, relationships, or connections in six steps or less

jmshore.bsky.social•90 days ago

3 but my LA film-guy brother-in-law says I am playing it wrong. So i am definitely 3.

nmamccoy.bsky.social•90 days ago

I did a scene as background on The Boroughs with Alfre Woodard a few weeks ago. She was in Beauty Shop with Kevin Bacon so I think it's 2 degrees?

redgmac.bsky.social•89 days ago

I like bacon

unhingedhamster.bsky.social•90 days ago

I'm not exactly sure, my godmother is fourth cousins with Marlon Brando and there's this: "Acting legend Marlon Brando, can be connected to Kevin Bacon in just two steps. Brando starred in "The Score" (2001) with Robert DeNiro. DeNiro worked with Bacon in Sleepers." Four?

sallybfromtwitter.bsky.social•90 days ago

3. It could even be 2 but that one would need some reminding of who I am.

fridaspock.bsky.social•90 days ago

probably 6

sewerratt64.bsky.social•89 days ago

My Bacon number is 4. My cousin knows George W. Bush who has a Bacon number of 2. I've emailed with my cousin about his connection to my family :D

sewerratt64.bsky.social•89 days ago

I have been informed that my number is actually 3. An associate worked with Kira Bacon, Kevin’s sister :)

jennyfern18.bsky.social•89 days ago

My Bacon number is 4. I worked with Levar Burton to help kickstart Reading Rainbow again. He did Ali with Eddie Bo Smith Jr. and he did Novocain with KB.😃

jamescalbraith.co.uk•89 days ago

Levar Burton's number is 2 (you can check on https://oracleofbacon.org) so you're 3

milsma.bsky.social•90 days ago

They live sorta near me and I know someone that made a service call to their house once. So my number must be like 7 🤣

drbayer.bsky.social•90 days ago

Mine is 3. I was in a couple of super-low-budget horror films with folks that have a 2.

averagewhiteguy.bsky.social•89 days ago

In college in the late 80’s I waited on Sissy Spacek (at a grocery store), who was filming a movie close by. She was in JFK with Kevin Bacon….so 2.

fawnliebowitz62.bsky.social•90 days ago

I used to do theatre with some guy named Andy who was in A Time to Kill with Donald Sutherland who was in Animal House with Kevin Bacon. So 3 acting credits away. I also once dated a guy whose grandfather was The Beatles’ accountant, so that puts me close to lots of famous people.

chiefgray.bsky.social•89 days ago

I consulted and was an extra in Killers of the Flower Moon which cast Brenden Fraser as a lawyer in the movie. Brenden appeared in the movie Daddy's Home 2 with Kevin Bacon. So, I guess mine would be a 2. Right?

chiefgray.bsky.social•89 days ago

I also went to HS with Scott Javine, who was Assistant Director of Murder in the First starring Kevin Bacon.

livrancourt.bsky.social•89 days ago

My sister's worked in Hollyweird in the costume truck for many movies & TV shows, so I'ma guess my Bacon number is 2 or 3.

Winkler has a Bacon number of 2, but that is from a site that only calculates from movies they've been in.

ournewhomecoach.bsky.social•89 days ago

Well then that makes me a 3. I’m happy with that.

angiecoiro.bsky.social•89 days ago

I'm a two; I met Martin Sheen at James Dean's gravesite; Sheen was in 8 with Bacon.

brianwcastner.bsky.social•90 days ago

I'm not sure what the exact number is, but my wife is decended from the man who wrote the anti-slavery stuff in the Massachusetts constitution, just like Kyra Sedgwick, Kevin Bacon's wife.

docksocksomaha.medsky.social•90 days ago

We were in the same movie theater as him and his wife in Whitefish Montana in 1993. He’s a little dude.

jjrymer.bsky.social•89 days ago

Went to high school with Ricardo Fareese, make-up artist on the Prismatic Katy Perry tour, who's married to Orlando Bloom, who was in the movie Tour de Pharmacy with Kevin Bacon...
So 5?

seraabunchanumbers.bsky.social•89 days ago

3. I've met Tom Keifer, who has a score of 2.

spaceybagel.bsky.social•90 days ago

Was the travel coordinator for Lemon Sky, an American Playhouse production, where he met Kyra Sedgwick back in the 80s.

blahblah7.bsky.social•89 days ago

Three. The cop who remodeled my bathroom was hired as security for a party in Dallas and met Luke Wilson who worked with Kevin Bacon on My Dog Skip. Also, I have two other ways that are equally interesting so I’ll spare you all

cooltxchick.bsky.social•90 days ago

My ex-husband produced Chris Penn’s last movie before he passed. Chris’ brother Sean Penn starred with Kevin in Mystic River. Would that be 3?

If he likes controversy, I'll contact him. I write and produce projects based on diversity and inclusion by breaking stereotypes. It's a short story that will be a feature that will piss of the right. You read for free at https://www.kaleidoscopefilmandtelevision.com/theresa-chazes-novels

Wasn’t Chris Penn in footloose?

jenc27.bsky.social•89 days ago

Yes.

jenc27.bsky.social•89 days ago

Chris Penn was also in Footloose with Kevin Bacon.

garyarmstrong.bsky.social•90 days ago

I once peed beside Kevin Bacon at a urinal. Does that count as one degree?

shwonline.bsky.social•90 days ago

#1 degree

detoxponcho.bsky.social•89 days ago

That counts more than being blood related in my book.

torieasab.bsky.social•90 days ago

One degree. He’s on my tv right now. 😉

realroffs.bsky.social•89 days ago

What were you watching?

torieasab.bsky.social•89 days ago

Mystic River

realroffs.bsky.social•89 days ago

Oh yeah … good movie.✌️

cooltxchick.bsky.social•90 days ago

Lol

cooltxchick.bsky.social•90 days ago

😂

rexfisk.bsky.social•89 days ago

A friend of mine is good friends with Mike Myers' brother and does know Mike Myers. Myers and Bacon do know each other, though I don't think they starred in a movie together...
-
Is that three...?

I'm 4, via Kevin Smith.

amandag4.bsky.social•90 days ago

Mine is 1!

kellyscaletta.bsky.social•90 days ago

Well that's pretty cool! How do you know him?

amandag4.bsky.social•90 days ago

The one is another person between us, so I don’t know him (though I saw him on the UWS a few weeks ago). I was in a show with Burt Reynolds who was in a movie with Kevin Bacon. Burt Reynolds is my 1. (I think I counted that right, but maybe that makes me 2 degrees…)

kellyscaletta.bsky.social•90 days ago

That's a 2. But Burt Reynolds makes you even cooler.

amandag4.bsky.social•89 days ago

😂😂

thedudeabides17.bsky.social•90 days ago

I lived most of my adult life in Philadelphia so I’m fairly sure that I knew people who knew people who knew people who knew people who knew Kevin Bacon.

ryansforbeson.bsky.social•90 days ago

I … um… was intimate with someone in My Own Private Idaho which starred Keanu Reeves, in Parenthood with Dianne Weist with Winona Ryder in Edward Scissorhands, with Alec Baldwin in Beetlejuice with Kevin bacon in She’s Having A Baby. So, six!

klt224.bsky.social•89 days ago

I can get you closer: River Phoenix in MOPI, River and Kiefer Sutherland in Stand By Me, Kiefer and Kevin in Flatliners.

ryansforbeson.bsky.social•89 days ago

Thank you. I knew it felt like it could be shorter. Thx!

grainofssand.bsky.social•89 days ago

I did a small contract with one of his in-laws

stray-citizen.bsky.social•89 days ago

I met John Ritter outside an audition in LA and he was in Hero at Large with Kevin Bacon, so mine is a 2.

tomrichardson.bsky.social•89 days ago

2 worked with Laurence Fishburne, and Sean Penn, at various times, they were all in Mystic River

haiyada1.bsky.social•89 days ago

i worked with him.

johogg.bsky.social•90 days ago

Ummm........I saw him in a great movie I hate but watch because it's so damn good. Sleepers.

funrider900.bsky.social•90 days ago

I watched guardians of the galaxy and Peter talked about Kevin Bacon so I’m a good 3.

bmaffitt.bsky.social•90 days ago

I'm also a 3. I was an extra in "Making the Grade" with Judd Nelson, Judd Nelson appeared in "The Breakfast Club" with Ally Sheedy, who was in "She's Having a Baby" with Kevin Bacon

kcstork.bsky.social•90 days ago

My cousin was in the remake of Bad News Bears (he played Ahmad). Billy Bob and Kevin were in “Jayne Mansfield’s Car” together.

fionastojkovic.bsky.social•90 days ago

I don't know what my Bacon Number is but I saw Kevin Bacon working out at my gym in Santa Fe years ago, and then 2 months later I moved to NYC and walked by him on Columbus Ave, and finally I sat next to him at the Broadway show Betrayal in 2013. I don't know KB but I keep running in to him.

pqsheedy.bsky.social•89 days ago

1 but that’s because of a famous sibling

kellyscaletta.bsky.social•89 days ago

Is her name Ally?

pqsheedy.bsky.social•89 days ago

👍

kellyscaletta.bsky.social•89 days ago

OK. Confession. I have a crush on your sister.

pqsheedy.bsky.social•89 days ago

Awww that’s sweet

jennyleeglv.bsky.social•89 days ago

One degree actually! I hung out a lot with Dean Winters, the Mayhem man in the 90s. He was in one episode of City on a Hill with Kevin Bacon. We were both bartenders at the time.

no1musclecar.bsky.social•89 days ago

I flew on an airplane, and I'm pretty sure he has, too, so its a solid "1" degree! LOL!

smurfmasterjym.bsky.social•89 days ago

1. I met him at a presser. (5 seconds -but- it counts)

oceana1225.bsky.social•89 days ago

I’m from Philly and so is he so, according to Philly logic, just two.

tleighb.bsky.social•90 days ago

I lived in LA & worked in Beverly Hills. I met everyone 😉.

r0burad0.bsky.social•90 days ago

4. Probably connected in other ways, but not exactly sure how.
