It does happen, here's a list.
Oh god imagine Tom Hanks sitting on your trial. I'd just plead guilty out of shame of letting America's dad down.
One thing that concerns me about celebs on juries is that their compatriots on the jury might ascribe more power / logic to their takes because of their authority / celebrity as a public figure. "If Tom Hanks thinks so, he must be right…" "Oprah tells me what to read and gives away cars; how could she be wrong?"
Yeah, it'd be a real issue.
