Do Japanese TV stars count? Hatsumi sensei was once in a TV series called "Jiraiya" that ran in Japan for awhile.

Then of course there's always Frank Dux and Rick Tew...

Sonny Chiba has met and trained with Hatsumi sensei.

We have at least one porn star that was training at a dojo in the Philly area, IIRC. Hatsumi sensei has her picture (pg-rated, settle down) on display in his home with his other awards.

You might have spotted him in Caddyshack as Bill Murray's nemesis...

In addition, there's also former "porn star" and current B-movie actress and alleged all-around sweetheart Traci Lords.

Her own website claims she studies "Ninjutsu" (with the two "u"s and not the two "i"s).

IMDb lists her as 1st Kyu in Da Booj, "Bujinkan Ninjutsu" specifically.

(then again, imdb.com can be notoriously unreliable, though, so take it with a grain of salt).

No independent verification, though.

Also, lest we forget, there's also SKH of "Shogun" and "Ninja Vengeance" fame...

Which one??

Groundhog Day
