Or at least raised, started school here? It could go back as far as you like. So people like Shaq as Brittney Spears don't count.

We were having this discussion last night at work.

We were guessing the top three are probably Stormy Daniels (because of her recent fame, not porn fame), Bobby Jindel (but many people outside LA have forgotten who he is), and Randy Jackson.

Other notables, Jim Taylor and Billy Cannon

What you think?

Good one, close enough to BR to say she is from BR.

I guess I skimmed the guidelines and thought being associated with BR was a qualifier. My bad. He's definitely from Winnfield.

Not many people would know who Donna Douglas is without telling them who she played

I forget about Joanne Woodward. She wasn't born here, but not sure when she moved here. If she moved here for college, she don't count.

Will Wright work is probably at the top, but he himself isn't exactly famous except in certain circles.

Stormy probably wins because of Trump.
