If I can just correct the answerer above me slightly - Simon Cowell hasn't taken our penny: he's one of us, through and through. in fact, his entire mission is to lower the standards of celebrity to a point where people can be famous for being on the TV, rather than for being specifically good at anything.
Naturally then, Taylor Hicks is a name familiar to us.
Paris Hilton, bless her empty little soul, is a stock answer, but the fact is that she's famous not through any deal with the powers of Hell, but because she's the scion of an insanely wealthy family. If she wasn't, she'd be humping a cousin somewhere and thinking herself lucky, in all probability.
Justin Timberlake's on our list, as is Elizabth Hurley, whose talent, last time I checked, was "wearing a risque dress". Tyra Banks? I'll have to check, but I think she's one of Cowell's little projects, to make people believe that modelling is a legitimate and difficult career. Seems to be working. There are plenty more of course - Busted, Hanson, any other little commune of homonculi that assault the airwaves with adolescent dross...

Paris Hilton for starters. Mick Jagger, Woody Allen, Tiny Tim, Charo, Pamela Anderson, Sylvester Stalone, Nicole Ritchie, Alec Baldwin, Simon Cowell. That is my list for the top 10.

Then people must have made a deal with the devil in order to be able to watch people devoid of talent. If people didn't pay to watch them, they wouldn't be famous!

I can almost envision the response:
