John Belushi

John and Gilda Radner 

Third Degree: John Belushi
John Belushi was an original member of the cast of Saturday Night Live.  Here he is with Jane Curtin, Dan Akroyd, Lorraine Newman, Bill Murry, and Gilda Radner in "Cheeseburger, Cheeseburger."

John Belushi partied with Robert DeNiro and Robin Williams at the Marmont Hotel the night he died.  Here is Williams saluting DeNiro with an AFI lifetime achievement award.

After Robin Williams and Robert DeNiro left John Belushi, his dealer shot Belushi up that night with a speedball (cocaine and heroine,) he died a little while afterward.

Second Degree: Kevin Bacon
Here's another classic from 1978, Animal House.  Here John has a scene with second degree, Kevin Bacon.

First Degrees, Bill Clinton and Bono were in the 2002 documentary, "Elvis Lives" with Kevin Bacon. This also gets Cher, Mary J. Blige, Eric Clapton, John Corbett, and Jon Bon Jovi closer to Pope John Paul II!

Kevin Bacon

Kevin Bacon is a man after the Catholic heart.  He's Catholic in so many ways.

• He's only had one wife
• He is faithful to that wife
• He treats his wife with dignity and respect
• He has a great sense of humor.  Instead of being offended, he named a charity after the drinking game "6 Degrees"
• He uses his influence to help the poor



Sean from Catholic Roundup

• He doesn't bash religion with the roles he chooses to portray

2  Degrees of Separation

1. Kevin gave a concert with his band, Bacon Bros.  Sean McGaughey of The Catholic Roundup heard his concert and really loves the band



Michael Jackson

2. Sean McGaughey went to a mega-mass given by John Paul II when he was on one of his United States visits

Another reconning

1. Kevin Bacon did a Happy Birthday special for Elizabeth Taylor with Michael Jackson in 1997.
2. Michael Jackson and Pope John Paul II both appeared in the 2002 World Awards.

Kevin Bacon is not Jewish, but he married a Jewish lady.  Some may be under the impression that Christians hold Jewish people responsible for the death of the Messiah.  That would mean that He committed suicide.  JESUS WAS A JEW!!!

Kevin married Kyra, a Jewish lady

Fun Catholic Fact About Jews

Did you know that our Lord, Jesus Christ, is a Jew?  Antisemitism is a way of hating Jesus through his family.  Antisemitism in all its forms was repudiated by the Second Vatican Council.  If you hate Jews, the Pope is not pleased with you!  Get thee to a confessional!
