Famous people

[Filbert]

Just seen a clip on the news as I was flicking through channels...
The question was "Who is the most famous person in the World?"
Who is it in your opinion?

Im sure for some reason that in the late 80s it was Michael Jackson. Would that have changed already? I cant think of anyone with as much global success. A lot f the world do follow football though, maybe Pele or Becks or Maradonna. I think Becks might puch it out of three cos even the papers in America have been running stories about him being the most famous sportsman in the world but we dont have a clue who he is stories for years. His face will be on everything soon.

Ronald McDonald

famous isn't the same as recognisable, dyli...

I think that it would have to be Elvis - but if we are not talking about a person who is either living or dead, I think that the most recognised character would probably be Mickey Mouse

[Shadow Man]

Father Christmas would be in for a shout. He wouldn't win but will be a good contender.
