I just found I have some famous cousins through my 12th great grandfather, Barnabe Lessard Gagnon (1531-1581):
Céline Dion
Madonna Louise Ciccone
Jack Kerouac
Hillary Rodham Clinton
Ryan Gosling
Diane Tell
Of course, that means they're all cousins to each other.

More cousins
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Re: More cousins
I'm sure everyone has cousins they are not particularly proud of.

Re: More cousins
They are also distant cousins in my family tree as well (along with several other Famous Names) via the Zacharie Cloutier/Sainte Dupont line. Of course, that does not necessarily make Bob my cousin...so he is off the hook. At least for now.
And, BiT: Included among the Cloutier descendants is Justin Bieber. So, yeah, you are right...
