Photos taken of famous people together that you would never have expected to be together but make you happy all the same.

HA!

Robo-Elvis?

L-R Akira Kurosawa, Sydney Pollack, Babs, and John Huston

Moments after this photo was taken, the room exploded b/c of awesomeness (Kurosawa looks like a total bro)

This one's crying out for a caption:

(Paul Simon & Lou Reed)

I love that SO much!!

I'm pretty sure this thread exists solely for the purpose of this photo:

Dolly Parton & Keith Haring!!

Sorry, I was wrong.

Stop the presses. We have a winner ladies and gentlemen. THIS makes me happiest of all:

One more and then the photobombing will stop...(god I love this thread!)

Stanley Kubrick & Weegee!!!

this one isn't 'never expected' but it makes me happy and i doubt there was another gathering quite like it:

Well, I wasn't expecting that one.

On this thread, anyway.

Lohan, Brit and Paris all in the same place at the same time and the universe didn't collapse in on itself? That's the equivalent of the Dane Cook, Jeremy Piven, Kid Rock photo upthread.

Anthony Kiedis and Edward Norton, pretty sure this was from ilx somewhere

this thread is worth its weight in gold

and I like to imagine Paul Simon and Lou Reed are arguing about who's more responsible for lame indie rock cliches.

Is Kiedis purposely trying to look like Iggy Pop now?

Kiedis looking very strange there.

Is Kiedis purposely trying to look like Iggy Pop now?

I thought he was always trying to look like Iggy Pop?

Buster Keaton and Sam Beckett - pretty much my favourite of these.

Yeah woah haircut not working for Mr. Kiedis there. eek.

l-r Snoop, Emu, Rod Hull (RIP)

Kubrick & Weegee photo is so awesome!

Kubrick was a New Yorker and worked as photographer in the late 1940s, so it's not that unexpected to see a photo of the two.

perhaps this thread coud be renamed 'interesting photos of famous people together' to shut tuomas up

James Dean + Eartha Kitt x Dance Class = MIND BLOWN

is there a thread for Photos taken of famous people together with ilx posters?

has anyone posted these yet? love these shots of buddy holly and waylon jennings

i mean i guess you'd expect these photos to exist because they're musicians who worked together but that in itself seems unlikely if you didn't know and...

oh wow they're amazing! and you know.. sad too :(

why is kiedis wearing a karen carpenter wig?

WOW! Black people hangin' with a white man!

I'm guessing Boney M (Mk. 2010) with Paul Garfunkel (Art's brother)

(If he does have a brother and if the band still exists, that is)

they are actors from the Wire but their characters never had scenes together and would not have gotten along. imagining them as their characters stretches the purview of the topic somewhat but it made me happy so there it is.

awesome

I dunno. That one doesn't seem so strange.

James Brown and two white guys?

weak

I have no who the other two are... But at this point I've given up hope people would actually include the names with the pics.

You know, if you don't recognize them by sight anyway, what's it gonna matter if you know their names or not?

Like you're going to be, "Oh, it's WAYNE COYNE. HILARIOUS."

The same with me, I don't every celebrity by the face but I might recognize the name. I know about Flaming Lips but I didn't know what their singer looks like.
