Wrink and I were having a trivial discussion today which posed the following question - Who do you think are the most famous male and female living people in the world? And the most famous Australian?

I don't know.. I think the largest country in the world is like, china so perhaps someone like the Dali Lama? Then again there are alot of catholics in the world so maybe the Pope.
And the most famous Australian, like famous outside australia? Probably Brett Lee now that he's done the whole bollywood thing, theres heaps of people in India? ? ?

Maybe if it was Pope John Paul the second.... but I supoose all Catholics know who the Pope is anyway.

I reckon the most famous man would be George Bush (junior), easily.

The most famous lady would probably be the Queen, 'cause pretty well everyone knows she exists, even if they don't like her or have any idea what she does or what she looks like... I gather the Queen is pretty big in a lot of third world countries 'cause she personally funds a lot of aid programs all over the place, and they're always full of people. All of India knows who she is, because England used to be the boss of India, and they still have an interest in England on account of the cricket. And there's a lot of people in India....

The most famous Australian.. that's a toughy. Maybe Dame Edna.

I was tossing up between the Queen and Oprah.

My thoughts exactly. Probably Oprah.

Ooh, Oprah, good call...

brad and angelina.
eddie macguire and nicole kidman.

fame has very little to do with contribution to society.

L. Ron Hubbard and Kirstie Alley.

John Howard.
