Yes. Here are 2 examples...
My best girlfriend dated a guy who's sister dated Lyle Lovett. That's 4 degrees.
My best guy friend played on an album along with John Evans, Tori Amos' bassist. That's three degrees.
Does the 6 degrees of separation really work?
Channel 4 (or 5?) made a programme about this a couple of years ago. A young English woman was sent to connect with a Mongolian shepherd and she managed to do it in 7 moves - only failing to make it in 6 because the shepherd was out on the plains when she arrived in his village. It was very absorbing and a fascinating study. An American university researcher also tried to do it on the internet about 6 years ago - people were invited to volunteer to reach a person selected by the researcher - interesting to know what the outcome was.
Personally, my aunt's first husband's granddaughter married an equerry of Princess Diana, so thats about 5 steps from the Queen, I guess.
