We probably have done Warren Zevon already, but we can do him again.

Warren sings Disorder In The House with Bruce Springsteen.
Clarence Clemons plays sax for Springsteen.
Clarence was a miner on TWAS.

Lyle Lovett

Lyle Lovett was married to Julia Roberts
who was in Pretty Woman with Richard Gere
who was married to Cindy Crawford
who was in George Michael's Freedom video
who sang faith that was redone by Limp Biscuit
who had a big part in Angry White Boy Polka.

Okay, now Allison Janney please?!!!!!

This is a FUTURE Six Degrees, so I don't think it counts, but it's interesting.

Lyle Lovett plays with Matt Rollings, who will tour this year with Mark Knopfler. Mark Knopfler played on Weird Al's "Money For Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies."

Also on the Knopfler tour, of course, will be Richard Bennett, Bermuda's brother.

Okay, okay, I'll do Allison Janney.

"Weird Al" Yankovic appeared in "Safety Patrol" with John Bennett Perry, who made a guest appearance on "West Wing" with Allison Janney.

Ruby Dee.

I don't think just being on the same NETWORK counts. Try again.

I actually did find a connection through movies, but I can't remember it at the moment.

Ruby Dee is the voice of Alice the Great on Nick Jr.'s "little Bill"
which is based on books written by Bill Cosby
who had Stevie Wonder as a guest on his Cosby Show
who duetted with Paul Mccartney on the song "Ebony and Ivory"
whose bandmate the late George Harrison was parodied with the song
"This song is just six words long"by Al.

I hope this clears it up.

Michael Jordan appeared on Michael Jackson's Jam video
as Al parodied MJ in "Eat It", and "Fat" not to mention at least one album cover.

Just to be weird, let's go with Alfred Molina.

Alfred Molina was in the second Spiderman movie, which was mentioned in Al's parody of the FIRST Spiderman movie. That's a little tenuous, I know...

That's simple. Alfred Molina played a role of a psychiatrist in "Identity", where he was talking with a maniac with 10 different personalities in him. One of them was John Cusack. And we ALL know what Al did with John Cusack in "Tapeheads". Well, at least John's favorite band is "The Doors" since then.

Well, let's try... Martin Scorsese!
