Im guessing Pam is more famous.
Friends is more popular than anything Pam’s done.
Baywatch was huge. And the sex video was legendary.

They made a whole series about it.
Think I'm Team Wease on this one. Baywatch WAS huge. The sex video WAS Huge. Friends IS STILL huge.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

How do we measure fame? I say you show a picture of the celebrity to half of the people on earth and ask if they know that person's name, with some points for recognition but not the ability to name. Then, you say the name of the celebrity to the other half of the world population, and ask if they can describe who that person is or identify some highlight from their career.

Who is the most famous person in the world? Barack Obama?
