Don't know about famous, but the Pope is usually the most photographed. There's always a crowd of people outside the Pope's quarters in Vatican City, and most of them usually have a camera and photograph him when he steps out to speak to them. (I'm going to guess Pope John Paul II was the most photographed person of all time)

Probably Elizabeth II. She is the longest reigning monarch, and probably is more well known than Queen Victoria was at the time.

I would say the pope. Even more remote places in Africa have heard of him. He's pretty well known.

Obama is the most powerful for sure, but the Queen of England might be more famous as she has lived longer and reigned for decades

If Jesus is also influential in Islam and not just Christianity why is he lower than Mohammed?

Probably quite close - I would plump for a sport with a broader reach e.g. football - perhaps the likes of Pele, or David Beckham if looking a little more current...

This is ridiculous. Ronald McDonald is NOT real. This thread is about most famous LIVING people. To me, I think Santa Claus is most famous because he is known in every nation. Rambo is another one of those guys that are pretty famous, though. But what do you have to say about that? You have been proven wrong.

Why do you assume Ronald's not known everywhere?, he has fast food restaurants all over the world and a lot of related media, have you ever watched those trippy japanese videos of that guy dancing?, besides, he's there for you all the year, Santa Claus only works one day.
