Here’s how it works: Go to the Google home page (http://www.google.com) and in the search field, type in the name of a celebrity followed by “bacon number.” Instead of going 'round and 'round with friends about who was in what movie with whom, Google crunches the numbers for you and badda boom, badda LET’S DANCE! it spits out how many degrees of separation the person is from Kevin Bacon — their bacon number.

Consider yourself warned, the first 27 you do, will likely be twos.

Al Pacino is a two: Pacino and Robert Duvall were in “The Godfather.” Duvall and Bacon were in “Jayne Mansfield’s Car.” Denzel Washington — also a two. Washington appeared with Ryan Reynolds in “Safe House” and Reynolds and Bacon were in “R.I.P.D.”

I finally got a 3 by putting in JFK.

I think anyone who's been in any big, medium or even a small budget film has a 2.

My daughter's boyfriend came up with Kevin Hart (who I've never heard of). His Bacon number is 3. Kevin Hart and Jason Segal appeared in "The 5 Year Engagement". Jason Segel and John Lithgow appeared in "This is 40". John Lithgow and Kevin Bacon appeared in "Footloose".

I quit when I put an actor in from the Japanese film Battle Royale into Google and it still came up with 2.

Justin Bieber gives you 4, but that's the highest I've found and he's not even really an actor so it's kinda cheating.
