Me too. Certainly not near the bottom. I'd never heard of Al or Joey before this.

I'd say top spot would be between Kian and Al.

Kian for the obvious reason that he was in west life who toured pretty much all over the world.

Al, because I would assume that Fresh Prince is and was shown globally and Carlton was a major character.

I certainly wouldn't put Joey before those two...

I'm going by currently. I'm not taking into account how famous they were in their heyday
Worldwide

-Alfonso
-Rebecca
-Kian
-Steve
-Lucy
-David
-Joey
-Amy


UK
-Rebecca - London 2012 is still talked about a fair bit when it comes the legacy
-Kian - Westlife only came to an end last year
-Lucy - she still on the TV 5/6 days of the week with emmerdale & was recently part of a big storyline
-Steve - if you are into snooker you would know him otherwise u wouldn't. i'm big into sport but didn't know who he was.
-Alfonso - fresh prince is still watched by a lot of people
-Joey - known in certain circles for TOWIE. if you don't watch it you wouldn't have a clue who he was. I don't want it so didn't know who he was.Heard the name but couldn't say what he looked like
-David - well known in the 80's because of the dress but not really done much lately
-Amy -the pageants world is very small and doesn't really get a whole lot of coverage.majority of people wouldn't know who she was. I know I didn't

Me too!

4 Olympic medals watched by millions is pretty famous.

I don't watch soaps or Towie, I've never heard of Alfonso......

So fame is relative to a specific audience only.

I do wish that somehow the winner of IAC could be based upon what they achieve in the jungle - fantasy I knw

I knew who they all were except for Alfonso whom I knew after I'd been told who he was, and Amy.
I wouldn't have known those two if they'd walked past me.
I would have recognised all the others, but Kian is most famous to me.

Apparently the miss universe competition is shown in over 100 countries and watched by over 1 billion people.

Looking at the photos of those celebs the only one most people could name was Steve Davis.

Have to say I don't agree with Rebecca's perception than joey is the most famous in the uk....he might be with her age group but not others. Also she didn't know who Steve Davis is because she is not quite old enough and he was famous in the 80s. I'm 29, I don't remember the 80s but I knew who he was

Also read that Lucy said 35 percent of people in the uk watch emmerdale...do they?! I didn't think any of he soap got a higher rating than about 10 million.. And there are over 50 million people in the country

I found Alfonso very big headed 'I'm known all round the world' etc...I know a few people who didn't know who he was.

Joey famous for being an idiot on a pathetic show like Towie
I despair that these idiots are seen as celebs and are made famous.
And worse of all idolised by so many UK youngsters

He also has an extremely high opinion of himself

Have to say I still do think people would be more likely to know who Lucy is rather than joey....another point to note is that towie is only shown on itv2, it's not even on one of the traditional main four channels! Even though we have digital tv now, a lot of people don't bother looking at the other channels

Same here, never heard of him. never heard of Joey Essex, never heard of Alfonso either so I certainly wouldn't put them at the top of my list.

Id say Amy, Alfonso & Joey the botton three.
Amy - never heard of her
Alfonso - looked vaguelyly familir, was told he was in FPOB so I'd s ay Carlton was famods notAlfonso wots his face
Joey - heard the name but thats about it.

All equally famous within their own fields, but Alphonso is a legend in his own mind.

Worldwide I'd say it would still be Alfonso by a wide margin (although most would know him as Carlton and not by his actual name).

I spotted the following article on digitalspy

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/s100/...r-verdict.html

It advertises Rebecca, Steve and kian (quite rightly) as being the big names to appear in I'm a celeb 2013. T me that sounds accurate, was very baffled by the camp mates opinion on who was most famous

Unless you actually watched The Fresh price you wouldn't know who he was. I've never seen him in anything else.

I didn't know who he was....never really watched the fresh prince...obviously I know will smith though and if he had been in camp indeed he would be the most famous

Steve, Rebecca or Kian

I'm not sure if he's even done anything else but your quite right.

Out of the ones that are left - I'd say the most famous is Rebecca. At the start of the series - Rebecca (because of her world-wide audience), Alfonso (because of TFPOBA - even though I thought it was crap), then Matthew.

The others (even though I really LIKE some of them) I've either never heard of or are just in it for the money - and why not?

Kian, followed by Rebecca.

Steve Davies, very famous, for a very long time. Although young people might not be very familiar.

Rebebecca is very famous too, recent double gold olympic medallist.

I'd seen Carlton casually, but he's not famous as an actor, just this one character, still famous though, I suppose.

Kian I find a little difficult as WESTLIFE are very famous, I've heard them, seen them on the telly etc. But I didn't know him.

The rest, niche and local, Matthew, Vincent, David, Joey, Lucy, Mo.

Amy is a nonentity
