Are you six degrees away from Kevin Bacon?

Asked by downtide (23815points) September 25th, 2010

Six degrees of separation (also referred to as the “Human Web”) refers to the idea that everyone is at most six steps away from any other person on Earth, so that a chain of, “a friend of a friend” statements can be made to connect any two people in six steps or fewer. This idea was popularised in a variation in which you tried to link any random person (usually another actor) with Kevin Bacon.

Can you link yourself to Kevin Bacon, and if so, in how many degrees of separation? Can you link yourself to any other celebrity in this way?
