Rimworld Celebrity suggestions

[KalkiKrosah]

I'm using Prepare Carefully to make Rimworld representations of real life celebrities and then inserting them onto a playlist and making them live together. So far I have just over 100 celebrities such as Rihanna, Gordon Ramsay, Conor McGregor, Marilyn Manson, Oprah Winfrey and Neil DeGrasse-Tyson to name a few. I'm looking to add in more and am open to suggestions.

The celebrities can be current or former celebrities and can be from various backgrounds. My only stipulations are that they are currently alive. Ghandi, Hitler and Anthony Bourdain are great suggestions but since they are all deceased I won't be adding them to the list.

And if there is enough interest I may make a narrative thread about what goes on in my celebrity colony if there is enough interest.

I vote for Ramsay to be taken out. Nobody should become a celebrity for being a foul human being.
Please replace him with Greta Thunberg.

I know he's got a foul mouth but Gordon can cook. And as far as Celebrities go he's probably the most well known cook in today's day and age.

Greta Thunberg is a good one. I'll add her in.

Edit: I made Greta Thunberg a small town kid and gave her the traits Ascetic, abrasive and steadfast. Do you think these ones fit or is there something better?

Howard Stern. Beavis and Butthead. Rick Sanchez. Darth Vader. Mariah Carey.

Being a foul human being is almost REQUIRED in order to become a celebrity!

That, in addition to the fact that this game has psychos, sociopaths, pyromaniacs, raiders (obviously) and an active slave trade. Foul human beings are already par for the RimWorld course.

Howard Stern and Mariah Carey would work. I think I already have Mariah Carey. I'll have to check.

Darth Vader, Rick Sanchez, Beavis and Butthead are cartoons/fictional characters. I am looking for real life celebrities. I could make a whole new list if I included fictional characters. That may be a more diversified list than the real life version I am making.

How about Keanu Reeves, Michelle Obama, and/or Bear Grylls? Bonus points if you add in Shia LaBeouf with the Actual Cannibal Shia LaBeouf mod for a Shia v. Shia faceoff.

Already added in Keanu Reeves and Bear Grylls. There isn't a piss drinker trait so I had to get creative with his traits.

I know I don't have Michelle Obama (mostly to avoid political banter) and I am unsure if I added in Shia LeBeouf.

Doesn't matter. They're famous slash infamous. Ever since Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, being a foul-mouthed jerk has been a necessity, otherwise you have a near-zero chance of getting cred. "Nice" doesn't cut the mustard any more. So it really doesn't make any sense to disqualify Gordon Ramsay solely on account of being a jerk (which, during the "Master Chef Junior" competitions, he is not, because the very nature of that show requires him to tone it down--and the fact that he CAN tone it down, without ever slipping up and flying into a rage when the competing chefs are eight-year-old kids, shows that his foul temper is an act).

I gotcha. Then how about Judy Sheindlin (Judge Judy), Taylor Lautner, Gabriel Iglesias, Dr. Phil, Madonna, LeBron James, er... Jung Ho-seok (of BTS fame). The last one is more of an international celebrity, but (from what I can tell, anyway) he seems to be the fan-favorite among k-pop followers all over the globe.

Those are all really good, thanks!

I have Dr. Phil but all the others are not on the list. I do not even know who Taylor Lautner and Jung Ho-seok are.

If Mr. Rodgers were still alive that might be a good one. He would certainly have the kind trait. But not a sniper background. Did you know that Mr. Rodgers was said to have been a Navy Seals sniper with his body covered in tattoos documenting all his confirmed kills? That was the reason why he wore so many turtle necks. Turns out that it was not true, but it was wild to have believed that. That's up there with all those crazy Chuck Norris-isms that are floating around the internet.

No, the Navy put out an official statement denying his enlistment in their branch. I wanted it to be true but unfortunately it is not.

Do you believe the Navy when they say that? On what basis?

Don't get me wrong--I have no evidence either way. But frankly, the idea of a guy starting up a childrens' show in order to get over PTSD is very possible--and pretty much every military force on the planet has been caught lying at one time or another.........

Sprinkle a bit of skepticism on whatever you're eating for dinner tonight. :)

Edit: you mentioned Chuck Norris earlier? Throw him in! As a melee combat pawn. :)

Sure thing! Glad you found them helpful/interesting.

Taylor Lautner is an actor who, among other things, played the character of Jacob in the Twilight movies. Jung Ho-seok is a rapper/singer in a Korean pop band called BTS.

If you do decide to share your narrative, I'd be willing to read it! Colony stories are one of my favorite posts to see pop up on the discussion board.

Edit: I second the vote for Chuck Norris if he's not on your list already. :)
