I don't think Will Smith is all that big in Europe breh. Titanic era Leo was definitely the biggest movie star ever, but now I don't know. This ain't the 80's or early 2000's anymore so Madonna and Eminem are definitely out.

Rihanna is bigger than Beyonce

As of right now in terms of relevance I still feel it's Obama followed by Ronaldo, Messi. Even if you don't follow soccer you should at least know their names.

I'm pretty sure Americans know

We aren't talking relevance. We are talking popularity. You flash a pic and someone knows them. Not their work. Not even what they do. I couldn't pick a Madonna song out of 2, but I know the woman when they flash a pic


But this can be easily settled........

Obama is first, then followed by the most popular soccer players. (Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar )

Depends where you live. Someone in the US may not be as popular in Asia.

In America though. Can't go wrong with Barack Obama and the Kardashian's

Breh you can say the same for any sports person the world. Not every person in South America, or Europe or Africa is a soccer fan, but they all know who Messi is. And fans do matter. Why do things become popular in the first place? Because a huge amount of people like them.

Messi is the most popular player in the most popular sport ever! Basketball isn't even the most popular sport in America. Kobe is popular due to what little international appeal Basketball has. Messi has that same international appeal times a 1000.
