who is the most famous person in the world? It still has to be...?

Question

...Muhammed Ali. some people have answered Bin Laden, Bush. Oprah! - are these people kidding? Ali is far more famous than these guys, and I believe is more famous than Elvis worldwide.

Answer 1

I think it has to be Dianna princess of Wales, but am open to others

Answer 2

Although I adore Ali, I have to disagree. Most people under the age of 15 have no idea who Muhammed Ali is, although they definitely recognize the names Bush, Bin Laden, Elvis, and Oprah.

Answer 3

I guess, if i was religious, i would say God? ( Whatever guise he/she is).
Muhammed Ali in Boxing
Elvis for Rock 'n' Roll
Mr Thomas Crapper for the toilet
Mr Alexander Graham Bell for inventing The Telephone

etc etc

Answer 4

Tiger Woods

Answer 5

Ronald Mc Donald.

Answer 6

I believe you are wrong about him being more famouse than Elvis. There is also the case for Jesus. But most of all I would say that David Beckham is in the running. Manchester United is the most widely followed football team in history, ipso facto, many people world wide would have heard of him. But I don't think he beats Jesus.

Answer 7

Are we counting just live people? Then Elvis would not qualify. And if we are including dead people, I should think Jesus of Nazareth would still hold the title. That is, who is KNOWN, not necessarily worshiped.

Answer 8

If alive i would say queen Elizabeth
if dead i would say Hitler he affected the history of a good part of the world and is still taught about in school in many countries

Answer 9

Bill Gates

Answer 10

Saddam

Answer 11

Well from the way things have been turning out in the past 24 hours (in a bad way) it will end up being Jade Goody!!!!!! grrrrrr
