Famous as in well known by the general public.

I would have to say its Billgates. His "richest man in the world" status along with his $50 billion net worth and his position as chairperson of microsoft as well as his Gates foundation charity has to say something.

EDITED TITLE.

How the hell would you know who posts here? Rossman could actually be Michael Dell's alias as far as I know.

It's a sketchy bet, but I'd put money that someday luvly may be able to lay hold of that claim. Though she says she'll take off from here if she ever does reach the modelling fame she aspires to.
