    Incredibly, I've heard Eminem played on air in Zambia, India and Tajikistan - yup!!!

    Tough question because obviously it depends both on media access and age group. I travel to remote areas, often very populated ones, and I am constantly amazed at how few people know the 'famous' people in the North and West. This said, I would say that today, taking into account most age groups and populations, I the most recognized are:
    1. George W. Bush
      1. Pope John Paul II (I know he's deceased, which is why I've put him as 1a)
    2. Hu Jintao
    3. Eminem
    4. Kofi Hannan
    5. Saddam or Brad Pitt
    Okay, I have to get back to work now

    The Pope
    George W Bush
    Ronaldinho
    Michael Schumacher
    Madonna

    Would be my guess.

    Not necessarily. Hip-hop isn't very popular in some countries, so I doubt they've heard of Eminem, etc. Just because something is popular in the USA doesn't guarantee it's well known around the rest of the world.

    You could probably add Britney Spears and 50 Cent to the list.
