Sure, it might not be that easy to connect with people outside of Hollywood when you're famous, but you'd be surprised by the random connections that some celebrities had way before they even entered the spotlight. Some met while waiting in line to audition for mediocre projects, others met their childhood companions through their famous parents' entourage, a few were just classmates.
Sometimes famous connections seem so random that they make you wonder if any of your friends have a shot at hitting the big time (and hopefully taking you with them). Just like this crop of celebrities you didn't know were friends as kids.
