Famous People

Post by M »

I've heard that Morgan Freeman is a regular on STJ. Any other famous people we should be watching for?

Oops. I forgot. Trust me, after the past few weeks I need a serious vacation and a vacation from that vacation.

Eric from St. John lives there I hear... :)

From what I have heard in the past: Harrison Ford, Richard Dreyfus (or I am confusing him with Mel Brooks?), Senator Mitch McConnell, Kenny something or other...

I don't think St. John is quite the celeb magnet as Anguilla or St. Barts - but sure there are "famous" people that visit.

The most famous people that you could see would be Ruth and Ron at St. John Spice.

I think Morgan Freeman is more a Virgin Gorda person.

I used to see a guy walking around Cruz Bay picking up cigarette butts. Always had a Heiny in one hand and a cig in the other. Locals said he had tons of money and owned most of Cruz Bay. It all makes sense now...Morgan Freeman!

All kidding aside, well not aside because we will still kid, famous people do go to STJ, but the likelihood of you seeing them is low.
They are on STJ for the same reason everyone else is...to get away from their everyday life, so you will not see a movie star strolling through Cruz Bay with a designer dress, heels, and big sunglasses. They are more likely to be on the beach at Caneel quietly reading a book.

You are all too funny! I pictured some fun with this topic, and you all delivered. We never thought we'd see anyone famous decked out...more like in flip flops and floral shirt...kicked back and having many adult cocktails at a beach bar. Would be cool if it happens......if not-we're still having fun.

Carole King was at La Tapa for dinner last week. My daughter said someone famous was staying at Cottage 7 last week, they had body guards around the cottage on walkie talkies.
