You've got to be high or something to think Gary Busey's bigger than Vinnie Jones.

All have been on TV for decades and a lot are still current

Imo, jedward were probably more famous than most if not all of those people at the time when they went on.

Yeah I still say Vinnie Jones because I remember that was the only time when all my friends knew of a housemate in big brother. Not to mention he was a prick but still managed to come third, probably because of how well-known he was

Jermaine Jackson (one of the original Jackson 5) and Gary Busey I'd say were probably the most famous. The Jackson 5 were massive in their day and as someone else said not many people in the world are oscar nomimnated. And probably Vinnie Jones who is now a movie star though I cant say I remember him being in the the house.

Im pretty sure Pete Burns deserves a mention anyone?

What about Barrymore, the guy was Mr Saturday Night during the 1990s and the swimming pool incident was heavily reported.

I think in terms of worldwide recognition, and sheer numbers, it would probably be Shilpa, but in the western world either Vinnie, Jermaine or Gary.

UK-wise (ignoring those above): Michael Barrymore, Julie Goodyear or Ulrika.

Although Sue Perkins is probably now one of the biggest presenters in showbiz but wasn't at the time, obviously
