Prince, Larry Graham, Kim Holland (porn star), Van Morrison (rumored)
Here's a good list: http://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/famous-jehovahs-witnesses.php
Van Morrison was raised as a JW. He has a song called "Down at the Kingdom Hall"
He performs it on Saturday Night Live here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAu8TWJTd-M
How the heck is Van Morrison singing that wuth a straight face!!!
As if that ever happened at a Kingdom Hall
I think that was the point of his song......As I remember reading, his mother was a faithful Witness, and he used to attend, but pursued his music career and left when he was a teenager. He was still close to his mother, and wrote the song for her I guess to make it seem like the KH was more energetic than it really was.
(Not people such as Lindsay Davenport that supposedly are Jehovah's Witnesses - but those that left.)
Huh?
Xzibit, Notorious B.I.G., the lead singer of the New Radicals and Wheatus all were raised as well.
Kid Gavilan, Welterweight Boxing Champion from Cuba. Was asked to write a bio for the AWAKE magazine but was to 'punch drunk' to do so. Look him up on Google.
Of course Mickey Spillane, author of some racy novels. (Mike Hammer series)
Outaservice
Lark Vhoories (spelling?) aka Lisa on Saved By the Bell. She was a soap star later in her career and I think quit her show or wouldn't do certain types of scenes (lovin') due to religious reasons.
