Of course people have heard of Hearsay. We aren't senile.

Hearsay

The younger generation will know of them due to Myleene Klass and Kym Marsh surely?

From when I was growing up I do wonder how many of today's kids and teens will know about these artists.

Snow Patrol
Daniel Bedingfield
Natasha Bedingfield
Kings Of Leon
Scissor Sisters
The Darkness
Keane
Will Young
James Blunt
Crazy Frog

The Beatles are probably still the most mentioned pop band in the history of music. They are timeless. Im not a huge fan or anything, but all generations have heard of The Beatles. They are Micheal Jackson tier when it comes to pop culture.

Sarah Michelle Geller was the first to pop into my head. She was everywhere in the late 90's/early 00's.

Hardly what I would call famous, considering 60 percent of the population at the time wouldnt have heard of him.

Your head must be full of nonsense.

well the question was that young people wouldn't have heard of now, I took that to mean that we had to think of a celebrity (which he was regardless if absolutely everyone knew him back then or not) that wasn't so famous that people would know him now. I also never heard of Josy Lawrence FYI. The vast majority of teenagers in the 90's would have at least heard of the TV Show Blossom btw if not watched it, plus he was a regular in teenage magazines back then

I don't think the youngsters will remember Nick Hancock. He presented one of the great quiz shows of the 1990s "They think it's all over" I think he was also the original presenter of "Room 101"

Won't younger people know of her due to Buffy and to a lesser extent The Grudge and Cruel Intentions?
