RZA, and I'm pretty sure other members of the Wu-Tang Clan, too.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

I think Robert Kirkman (Walking Dead, Invincible, and Haunt) is a fan of Dragon Ball since I recall him talking about the series in a interview before?

I wouldn't say so. He's only starred in about three movies (including DBE).

He is indeed, he used Dragon Ball (specifically Goku's training and ascension to Super Saiyan) as an analogy for his journey as a
black man in America.
And could we not list a young man's profession as "douche bag"?

And he's NOT a DragonBall fan. He only read it in "preparation for the movie", or so he says.
Marsters was a fan even before he was involved with DB:E.
Do manga-ka's count as celebrities? I know some who love DB and get inspired by it.

Shadowboxing! Hey, I love your avatar

I'm really glad that RZA and members of the Wu-Tang-Clan like DragonBall, heck they're an amazing band! I wonder of Raekwon is one of them.
Actions have reactions so don't be quick to judge, you may not know the hardships that people don't speak of.
Dub fan.

His ungodly power-ups in movies.

I hear the Saint Seiya creator is a fan, I'm not sure if that is true or not?

According to an interview in a magazine, he's already been a fan of DB, before the "preparation for the movie".

I quote;
Q: Were you a fan of the manga before this film?
Justin Chatwin: I know about Dragonball, but I was really interested in the series when I got the part. I saw it on television when I was younger with the younger brother of my friend, who was a big fan. I think it has become really popular for the generation now coming after me, but I always thought it was magnificent. Obviously, I would never have dreamed of being involved with a film of DRAGONBALL but when I started working I have seen every episode of the television series. Now, I am fascinated and obsessed by this phenomenon.

He saw it on TV, but that doesn't make one a fan. I mean, I saw so many shows but I'm not fan of everything I've seen in my life.
