I am surprise I'm seeing people put Ronaldo after Michael Jackson on their list..laughable. these five people are way more popular worldwide level in my opinion:

Michael Jackson
Bob Marley
2pac
Michael Jordan
Maradona
Oga.... Football is more popular than basketball.
Just as music is more popular than football as a recreation thing.

Who knows Michael Jordan in villages? Do thru play basketball in villages? No! But they play football in villages. They kick anything round in villages.

Ronaldo is far more popular than Jordan.


But MJ is the most popular. It's music after all

Michael Jackson.
My grandma doesn't even know those singers
Re: Without Bias, Who Is The Most Popular Celebrity Of All Times ? by EdiskyHarry: 7:54am On Apr 13, 2025
Cr7 and Michael Jackson

The only name more celebrated than MJ is Jesus

A question with subjective answers. The people posted weren’t alive in 1940. In 2060, those faces will belong only in record books. A new flock of celebrities will exist. There is no most popular celebrity of all time because it’ll change with years.

Ronaldo and Messi are only known where football is a thing. Football as popular as it is, it’s not popular everywhere in the world. Average Americans don’t know who Ronaldo or Messi is. Of course they know MJ
Big cap

[quote author=TouchNfollow post=134945968][/quote]The mighty Michael Jackson, without a question!!
Re: Without Bias, Who Is The Most Popular Celebrity Of All Times ? by ThierryJay: 8:28am On Apr 13, 2025
Micheal Jackson is number one.

Then I'd place Pele, Muhammad Ali, CR, Messi, Elvis and the Beatles at the same level of popularity in the second tier.

Maradona, Micheal Jordan, Beyonce, Obama etc will occupy the third tier.

For Messi and Ronaldo, there is no one who knows CR that doesn't know Messi and vice versa. Pendu may have more SM followers but ALL of those followers know and have nightmares about Messi so it's a tie in popularity.

Fred Astaire, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Michael Jackson.

Pele, Muhammad Ali.

Charlie Chaplin, Marilyn Monroe,

Groucho Marx, Sammy Davis Junior

The greatest Celebrity of all time has to be our lord Jesus Christ.
He has been celebrated more than anybody else and is the most worshipped.
Re: Without Bias, Who Is The Most Popular Celebrity Of All Times ? by judewrites: 8:57am On Apr 13, 2025
Definitely the lord Jesus Christ....

MJ, follow by CR7, follow by Beyonce. Wait, who put Eminem there?
You sai Taylor Swift na Eminem you see.

Of all Time?

Give it to Jesus Christ.
He even has a remembrance day (Christmas)

In 500 years to come, Micheal Jackson won't even be more popular than William Shakespeare or Socrates.

Of all time means celebrities that their popularity would flourish even after a thousand years.
Please let them nominate their celebrities.

Jesus is not in that class of people, at all!

MJ, 2PAC

The only point of argument is whether Jesus Christ is a celebrity.

No doubt MJ.
Michael Jackson is the most popular person after Jesus Christ,
I wonder how he pulled such influence without internet and social media during his days

Seek help. For the sake of the children who will be or already are unfortunate to have you as father. This is not an attack or troll on your primitive personal, but an honest advice that will help you.

Since Eminem openly supported that bitch SCAMala Harris for President, I consider him as nothing but a pussy

A very disgusting smelly pussy, as a matter of fact
Re: Without Bias, Who Is The Most Popular Celebrity Of All Times ? by JakJay: 10:50am On Apr 13, 2025
MJ of course. Even the others will ask why they were put on that list

VinnyBaba:
Michael Jackson obviously. smiley

But if Cristiano Ronaldo had a Noisy personality like Muhammed Ali or Davido,
He would have beaten MJ by now. undecided

Ronaldo is too Quiet, for his Fame! sad
Even if he was the noisiest person, he would still not be at the level of MJ.

Diego Maradona was way more popular than Ronaldo or Messi

But how would you know that, when you probably weren't born till after the middle-nineties when he had stopped playing soccer
Yes, I was born in the mid nineties when maradonna stopped playing soccer.

My point is footballers are the most popular people on Earth, wether maradonna, Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar etc. ( The OP didn't mention Maradonna though)

Notice how I picked Ronaldo and Messi together. Not just only one of them.

After mj, pele and Mohammed Ali.


But on current form, Messi, followed by LeBron.

Christiano Ronaldo is most famous for being compared to Messi.
Re: Without Bias, Who Is The Most Popular Celebrity Of All Times ? by Donjuan77: 12:06pm On Apr 13, 2025
Michael Jackson for sure

I'm a Madrid fan. Messi left Christiano behind after winning the worldcup.

Lebron's popularity is more credible than that of Ronaldo.

Just that football has more global appeal.

Well going by our present day standards and how we was followed back then, he can be said to be.

Jet Li alone is more popular than all of them combined not to talk of Jackie Chang.

Where is Lucky Dune?


Those people apart from C. Ronaldo and Messi can walk in the streets of Nigeria unrecognized by people.

Who doesn't know Jackie Chang, unless you no grow up, you were created adult.
