I have a second cousin that got interviewed on Colbert. Author who contributes to the New York Times and had a pretty decent selling book.
That's about the best I can do. I don't have a super common last name and some famous people do share it, but I don't know if theres a way to see if we're distant relatives.

Holy shite, you're related to Dottie? Kdub is a freaking Louisiana sports legend who doesn't get nearly enough attention since MX is more of a niche sport. If it weren't for Ricky Carmichael, Kdub might have gone down as the greatest in the sport. I've got an autographed Kdub jersey that I still need to frame. Do you go to any shindigs at the "ranch" in Centreville? The dude appears to be one of the most genuine, down to earth sports superstars out there. Please don't tell me he's an a-hole behind closed doors...
Tldr: Kdub stalker here

I've never met him since he was dead by the time I was born, but James Doolittle is my great, great uncle.

Related to William Wallace from the movie Braveheart. Obviously it's way down the line.
Is your last name Doolittle by any chance?

Only famous guy I'm related to is dead now, and he was pretty damn famous in the 30's-40's but not these days.
Gus Kahn is a Great Grandfather on my mom's side. He wrote the song "It had to be you" which was made famous by Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett.. More recently Harry Connick Jr likes to sing it also.
He had several other hits he wrote for other singers and was a popular name in showbiz back in that era in Chicago.
