Any celebrities that like Dragon Ball?

[nite_jay]

Anyway,he's far from a list, but Egoraptor from Egoraptor likes it.

A funny thing about that is in a Game Grumps episode I saw a little while ago when he imitated a Kamehameha he sounded more like Nozawa that Schemmel when doing it.

I still remember his remix of Cha-la at the end of a part in SM64.
(BTW, those endslates are pointless AF, half the time, they weren't even fucking linked correctly, goodgamekevin)

Now I'm wondering, what does this thread qualify as celebrity? Because there are a lot of Youtubers with pretty substantial amounts of subs that like DB. (I also think that Kevin is sort of there just to make videos passable for upload. IDK if he even does much else besides lining up the audio visual.)

Sometimes who get even get that right, lol (I really hope Super mega become the full time editors).
As for the celebrity, it's up to you

I knew beforehand that some rappers are fans of Dragon Ball.

Some of the other names mentioned surprised me.

Rhonda Rousey was one I already knew. There's some video of her telling the cameraman about her crush she used to have on Vegeta.

Anyway, I don't know many celebrities that have explicitly mentioned liking Dragon Ball. What I do know is that there are some celebrities in Western shows and movies that make subtle or direct references to the Dragon Ball franchise.

Maxwell Atoms's Billy and Mandy had an episode titled, "Chicken Ball Z"
Mr. Warburton's Codename: Kids Next Door had an episode that recreated the Goku vs. Frieza fight.

It shouldn't surprise you that plenty of rappers (or even younger celebrities in general) like Dragon Ball (or at least, the college-basement Americanization of Z).

Indeed, we do talk about it as this massive thing that, even without extreme localizations, was a big deal worldwide. & that Kai's dub (which was a perfectly acceptable version of the story) was a hit with American children.

However, in regards to those parodies in Western media of Dragon Ball, they are moreso expressions of the frustrations that Hollywood networks had of anime (a product which they did not create or generally invest themselves in) doing so well, & in DBZ's case, blowing away their own shows in ratings.

This includes the Robot Chicken anime parody, & I would even say it branches out to stuff like ATLA (Wonderful show), Ben10, Thundercats 2011, & heck, even IGPX, which was a co-production which featured Hamill & Cullen in the dub (which, mind you, they NEVER did so for hit "licensed" shows, such as Naruto, Pokemon, or DBZ)

I really shouldn't wear out this term, but it's kinda like The Big Bang Theory comparisons, i.e. "nerd (or "anime" in this comparison) blackface".

* Sure, it's an acknowledgement of the popularity of the material, but it ISN'T a respectful one.

(Angry dub fan rant over)

Nerd blackface? Really?

[Freeza9000]

Ronda Rousey. Remember that bitch that got her ass handed to her a year ago? She definitely wants to become Android 18 and sure has some crush over Vegeta.

Maybe we can have them tweet Funimation, Toei, and groupe AB for Dragon Box Blu-ray rays 4:3, all the image.

Use the starfan support!

God, please

It seems that Brittney Spear's son likes DBZ, as he was Frieza for Halloween. Anyone else saw that picture?

[THEGOKU]

Actually I remember some guy a-long time when I watched MTV cribs pulled out the box sets of the Ocean Dub and was talking about them haha I just can't remember who he was

I'll never forget that episode it was Master P. I don't know if this has been answered I just felt it needed to be in case anyone wanted to know.

The funnier part for me about that was the official Bandai Namco US account tweeting to her "WOW! That's awesome. Coolest family ever"

Me and my friend were talking about that post today, got some free time at work and made a funny "what if" scenario where FUNi announces "Dragon Ball Super English Dub featuring music by Britney Spears" haha.

I had to jump in and shout out Andre-Pierre Gignac. He's a French soccer player but he plays in Mexico for Tigres nowadays. Anyway, here is him earlier this year, dying his hair blond and then celebrating a goal with a kamehameha: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkI_Y5X2lac

Heck of a goal too

I'm assuming this was from a WrestleMania. Which one? Did anyone mention DB explicitly or was it just the costume?

Yes, Wrestlemania 32. The announcers acknowledged it, I cant remember if they had any DBZ jokes in their promo?
