Most Famous Person

[BabyPiglet]

lol for some odd reason me and you seem to be agreeing a lot in this thread.

We only disagree when you mention things like elvis donuts.

 

[BabyPiglet]

he was totally awesome fo sho. Just not anywhere close to most famous person ever. No one hates Darwin except for Creationists but they have other issues to worry about so who cares?

No, not most famous person ever, but he's definitely a famous person.

I still don't think Elvis is the most famous person ever, even though he's probably in the top 5.

...what about Johnny Cash, you guys?

 

[Sparx]

i have more to add.
gandhi and mother theresa are pretty famous too. and nelson mandela.

and saddam hussein is infamous.

 

[Columba]

No, not most famous person ever, but he's definitely a famous person.

...what about Johnny Cash, you guys?

I wouldn't even put him in top 10 for most famous people ever in the USA

lol The only reason most people of our generation knows who he is because of the move Walk The Line. As far as all-time, I'd still put The Beatles and MJ ahead of him.

As much as I like The Cash, his fame and legacy is in the country world.

Speaking of Johnny, I heard a song the other day called Johnny Cash is Dead and His House Burned Down.

Yeah, I agree. Definitely not the most famous person, but famous nonetheless.

So, I'm going to say Osama Bin Laden is a pretty famous person of OUR time.

 

[KidGoofy]

What about Led Zepplin

I just don't think that if anyone from OUR time died, we would really be as devasted as the world was when Michael did.

Well, actually, it depends on who you're talking about. If it's just entertainers, then I might agree with you. But if Barack Obama died, I'm pretty sure the world (especially the US, of course) would be devastated.

Well sure, it is the same with any President. Purely because of their status they would need to have an elaborate funeral.
But I would even venture to say that Barack Obama has not made an emotional impact internationally, to where people would be mourning worldwide, the way Michael did.

He touched people's hearts, he made beautiful music, and has left the world without their "King." I don't think that anyone would have that response out of love and sorrow, that he had.

His memorial wasn't mandatory, it was elaborate because that is what people thought Michael deserved, and the people who showed up were people who loved him and worshiped him, the millions of viewers who turned in wanted to be apart of it too.

I don't think I would be watching a Barack Obama memorial service, but that's just me.

 

[TinkRockz106]

probably Kristen Stewart , Robert Pattinson , Briteny Spears, or Obama.

Did you not watch any of the election? Barack Obama has many many 'fans'. He's just not our president, he represents how far our country has come. He's a landmark.

Not everyone thought MJ was 'king', ya know. I loved the guys music, and thought he was a sweet person, but I wouldn't say he was 'king'. I'm not ignorant to how famous he was, but just because you worshipped him, doesn't mean everyone did.

I think it's incredibly sad that you wouldn't watch the memorial service for our PRESIDENT. He's our leader. He's an icon. If he died, I believe the country would be devastated. I can't speak for other countries though.

Great. Another MJ lover If you weren't watching the inauguration ceremony, people ALL OVER THE WORLD were watching it on tv. Schools in many countries had their tvs on to watch the event. If that doesn't count as impact on the world, I'm not sure what does.

 

[Fatphil32]

probably Kristen Stewart , Robert Pattinson

This calls for a *facepalm*

 

[TinkerTracy]

This calls for a *facepalm*

I couldn't agree more.
I think it's sad that we have all this teenage fangirls running around thinking the Twilight characters are the most important and famous people of our time...sad.

i don't post on these boards much but i agree with everything you said 100%. And Michael Jackson absolutely changed history. A different kind of history but history nontheless.(that was directed to a diferent post by the way)
