While the debate about Nashville Star and whether it benefits or disparages the city rages on, a lower profile discussion has been taking place on what is apparently a fan site for a preferred paintball gun: Who went to high school with a celebrity?

User Raion went to high school with show contestant Shawn Mayer, whom Raion thought would never “actually get somewhere.” Chris Brown (I’m guessing either the hip-hop artist or the former Tennessee Titan) and MadTV comedian Frank Caliendo also have the dubious distinction of having classmates brag about graduating with them on random paintball Web forums.

Maybe Nashville Star really has arrived. It’s not only on NBC this season, it’s even on Twitter. I think Failwhale deserves to make an appearance when contestants are voted off each week.
