Speaking of celebrities, one of the biggest country icons came to town last month. Having spent a few days in the south, I made my way back to the SCV just hours prior to Willie Nelson’s performance at the Santa Clarita Performing Arts Center. I didn’t want to miss out on the legend taking stage here in Santa Clarita! Willie performed alongside his sons Micah and Lukas Nelson and his sister Bobbie. At the end of the evening, Willie’s daughter Amy along with Lukas’ friend actor/drummer John Stamos joined Willie on stage. John Stamos is best known for his role as Uncle Jess Katsopolis on the ABC sitcom Full House. He has also starred on the soap opera General Hospital, along with several other television films and series. After the Willie Nelson concert, John was nice enough to take a photo with Santa Clarita resident, Alex Hafizi.
He’s the 44th President of the United States, and our country’s current leader. President Barack Obama along with his wife, First Lady Michelle Obama, kindly took a photo with Lance Corporal Daniel Joseph Bolewski, landing support specialist stationed in Hawaii and former Santa Clarita resident. President Obama was elected to office on November 4, 2008 and sworn in on January 20, 2009. The President and First Lady have two daughters, Malia and Sasha.
Summer is almost here, Santa Clarita, so make sure you have those cameras ready while you’re out and about. You never know which star you’re going to run into.
