Not me...though that would be cool.

Apparently there's this British morning show that is doing a contest right now called Bounty Hunter, where listeners call in with celebrities on the line, or try to get celebrities to call in for them. At the end of the week people vote on the coolest call in and that listener wins a whole bunch of money.

So a few weeks ago someone called in with Chris Martin(lead singer from Coldplay). So recently Chris Martin called back in with a celebrity of his own...Steven Spielberg. And the two of them both take turns talking on this radio show.

Spielberg mostly talks about War of the Worlds and the new Star Wars movie. Pretty neat, and I thought it was interesting.

Here's a link to a write up about it, and that page also has links to listen to the conversation or just read the transcript.

lol, I bet they were rather surprised to have someone who was one of their 'celebs' call in with a different famous person.

I don't have a link for it, but a local Atlanta station does somethink like this every couple of years. It is really fun. Having the Coldplay singer call back with his own celeb was a fun idea.
