Celebrity Psychic Experiences

Many celebrities have experienced psychic connections from the other side.

Russell Crowe

Russell's first psychic experience occurred in his kitchen. "Suddenly a kookaburra flew in the window, he recalls. It looked me in the eye and I knew my grandfather had died. I phoned home and my mother confirmed it". Russell was adamant that the bird embodied his grandfather's spirit but his mother refused to listen. Many years later the Gladiator star awoke from a dream in which he was consoling his tearful mother. Disturbed, he reached for the phone. My mother said a woman who had worked closely with my grandfather had come to visit and, without prompting, had told her a story that shattered my mum and reduced her to tears. She said that on the day my grandfather died a kookaburra had visited her too.

Toni Collette

In Sixth Sense Toni plays a mother struggling to comprehend her son's ability to see dead people. But the Australian actress is more receptive to such phenomena. "I've always been aware there was another dimension to life, she says. After my grandmother died, I used to get an incredibly strong feeling of her presence. It was scary. I used to say, I know you're there, but please don't talk to me. I can't handle it. All the family sensed her. My dad actually saw her twice, but I just felt an extraordinarily potent energy".

Mel C

Sporty Spice lost her grandfather while she was on tour in 1998. They had been close and Mel was comforted by his presence when she performed on stage. She says, "You can be singing a verse in front of tens of thousands of people, but you can still feel alone". "I knew my grandfather loved 'Viva Forever', and sometimes, when we sang it, I felt he was there and I was singing it just for him. It could be quite magical".

Kylie Minogue

Kylie cites the late Michael Hutchence as one of her great loves and is convinced he still watches over her. "Michael's still around, I know that" the singer insists. "People might think I'm mad, but I feel his presence. It's very personal. He checks in with me and it's typical of him that I feel his presence just when I need him most". "It's not spooky, it's reassuring although the force of his presence can be scary".
