By internet standards, yes. By real world standards, probably not. But an internet celebrity still counts, right? Also, I find his old DBZ in a nutshell stuff hilarious due to the cheese factor.thomas1up wrote:I've never been much of a fan of Arin's but he made a Dragon Ball Z video when he was a teen, (I think 13?)

One of the Game Grumps is Arin Hanson, better known as 'Egoraptor', who I would say is a celebrity, by internet standards at least. My wording may sound like he was paid to pretend to like DBZ, but he has done DBZ videos in the past, plus there's fanart on the hidden 'scrap' directory of his website (which has somehow become 403 forbidden since the last time I went there), and his deviantART (shudder) page, such as this picture of Trunks.
Yeah he was definitely a Dragon Ball Z fan but is he really a celebrity?
Are there any celebrities that like Dragon Ball/Z/GT?

Makes sense to me! it's cool she put up a gt poster and not a Z one, not because it's a better series but because you don't see too many gt references out there.Basaku wrote:Christina had small brother back then, quite possible she was watching with him.

I don't believe she's a fan but it's random that it's there

Damon Wayans said he used to have a lot of DBZ toys so he used to be a fan at least.

The Red Ranger from Power Rangers: MegaForce and Super MegaForce, Andrew Gray, said DBZ "is his thing" in an interview.

While he's not the most recognizeable name, One time U.F.C. Welterweight champion Carlos Newton is a big fan. He even named his fighting style in tribute to the series, " Dragonball Jiu Jitsu" which I found quite interesting.
The Dragonball series is my one and only anime show.
always on the lookout for uncut vhs box sets/individual tapes, dvd box sets, and various DB related merchandise.
My inner child is a monster that holds me hostage until I buy it endless video games and dragonball stuff. It won't stop until I have a man cave full of stuff that I look at more than I use. It's a problem.. They tried to make it go to rehab, but it said noo noo noo. Lmao.

Re: Are there any celebrities that like Dragon Ball/Z/GT?
Countless rappers, I don't know how but DBZ is immensely popular amongst black people. Being a young guy myself, I have met way more teen black DBZ fans than any other race. If we are going to mention posters in the background, there a movie called Agent Cody Banks (or something along those lines) where the main character had a DBZ poster in the background. Considering its timing, it was probably cashing in on the US craze at the time, but I always liked to think someone liked it enough to put in the film.
Another thing I can think of are the brothers that were part of the Matrix films. They had one fight between Agent Smith and Morpheous on a truck that was almost exactly like the fight scene between Vegeta and 18 iirc. I remember hearing that they liked anime, so them taking influences from DB wouldn't be so crazy.

Re: Are there any celebrities that like Dragon Ball/Z/GT?
I wonder if there is any film directors besides James Wong who likes Dragon Ball?

Ronda Rousey was wearing an "It's over 9000!" t-shirt at WrestleMania.

What do you mean? Between takes in a marvel movie, 2 actors were doing poses from Great Saiyaman. I can't be any clearer.Bullza wrote:What are you referring to?FoolsGil wrote:I saw .gifs of Chris Hemworth(Thor) and Tom Hiddleston(Loki) pretending to be Great Saiyaman between takes of Thor: Dark World.
Re: Are there any celebrities that like Dragon Ball/Z/GT?
I mean show it, where you saw this because the chances they were actually pretending to be the Great Saiyaman is slim to none.FoolsGil wrote:What do you mean?
