Is this gray-haired man anyone famous? The capsule didn't say. I saw the episode again today and was wondering...

Austin

Homer:    [blows a raspberry] Kent Brockman, please!
Moe:      Oh, what, I suppose you've seen a bigger star.
Homer:    I might have ...
Lenny:    Come on, make with the name.
Homer:    Oh, I can't.  I promised I wouldn't.
Moe:      Aw, yeah, right, you ain't seen nobody.
          [the others in the bar begin laughing at Homer, who imagines
          his new friends pleading with him not to reveal their secret]
Kim:      Please don't tell anyone we're here.
Alec:     You've got to keep our secret, Homer.
Ron:      Homer, we're out of vodka.

% But the celebrity pleas are interrupted by a vision of a gray-haired % man, dressed in 19th Century fashions.

Gray-Haired Man: Tell the people, Homer.  They have the right to know
                 ... about the celebrities' summer house.
Homer:           Who the hell are you?
Gray-Haired Man: What do you care?  I'm telling you what you want to
                 hear.
                 [Homer turns to his bar buddies]
Homer:           All right.  I'm going to let you guys in on something.
                 But you've got to keep it much more secret than I did.
