Famous Sonic Fans?

[QuantumEdge]

A thought just recently occurred to me.  Which famous people like Sonic the Hedgehog?  I'll be honest and say I haven't got a clue who does, but I know there has to be some, even if they're people I've never heard of before.  So does anyone know a famous person to like Sonic?

[SnipSnap]

Um... Don't you think it is better asking this in a status update?

Anyways, it is a big world, and there might be a famous person who likes Sonic, and is most likely a famous YouTuber that does. I am not exactly sure who is a Sonic fan, because maybe even Jack Black kept this private. A wild guess, I am not saying so.

If you want YouTube-famous Sonic fans, I think it's MegaGWolf, I think....

I think at one point I heard rumor or something that Obama's daughter like Sonic.

 

*shrugs*

 

I dunno what you're asking, are you asking about people famous in the community, but not outside it, or of internet fame, or of people in the real world who are famous and happen to like Sonic?

Jesse Pinkman

[Gatestormer]

Michael Jackson is the obvious one.

 

Andy Murray also likes to play Sonic before a big match, according to an interview earlier in the year.

I know owning a sonic shirt doesn't automatically make you a fan, but M.I.A. had one... *shrugs*

Marky ramone had one too but i can't find a pic

 

Plus...of course...Jesse bitch!

I wasn't really thinking of asking it in a status update, sorry about that.  I just wondered if anyone here knew as all.

I mean if there are any real life famous people who are fans of Sonic.

Lacey Chabert said she was a Sonic fan when she was younger, but I'd chalk that up to her simply doing as she was told to promote Sonic '06...

Are internet celebs fictional people now?

This has been making the rounds lately on tumblr.

 

 

Check his Twitter and yep; total Sonic fan. https://twitter.com/sonic99_sc Or Sonic killer. Depending on how you take it.

Chris Lowe of the Pet Shop Boys is said to be a Sonic fan.

I know there is a competitive gamer who got Guinnessed for Sonic games.

[Tani Coyote]

While it might just be because of his line of work, Mike Pollock seems pretty fond of the franchise (he was even willing to take time out of his busy day to attend Sonic New York meetups, for example). He did tell me he's not much of a gamer, however, so I assume he's more attached to the characters and the stories involving them.

[The Tenth Doctor]

I remember seeing Fernando Alonso (of Formula 1 fame) in a Sonic shirt. Also My Chemical Romance were Sonic fans...though they broke up so aren't famous anymore.

[Johnny Boy]

Well Lacey Chabert has been shown to be one since childhood in an interview.

 

I think Chris Brown could also count seeing that he has a chain of Sonic:

My favorite band in the world is L'Arc~en~Ciel.  Imagine my fangasm when I saw this.

I do know for a fact that he at least pays attention to the Archie series: he Tweeted a couple of months back about the second "Best of Sonic" book, where he jokingly voiced his dissatisfaction at how they saved Eggman for the last chapter rather than making him "Number 1" (hearty laughter)

Well, sort of. They're playing a role as the alter-egos they have on the internet. If the role likes Sonic, it's not certain that the real person behind it does. Just sayin'

That really depends on what the person is known for doing on the internet. Some of them don't even try to hide how are, and some just only display themselves in a credible way but still can let off something about how they are in actuality.

 

What you're saying makes me think of an actor, and I've never really seen a lot of internet celebs do that unless that's part of the thing that they're famous for doing in the 1st place.

Yep, that's the first thing I thought of when I saw this thread. Charles Ziese, AKA you

[Barry the Nomad]

Drew Carey had a Saturn and later a Dreamcast on the set of his show, I've heard he is a SEGA fan so by extension probably likes Sonic games.

 

Also, Daniel Tosh of Tosh.0 has featured Sonic numerous times, and appears to be a fan of speed runs.

[Hobgoblin]

Didn't a rapper make a song with Green Hill Zone playing in the background?

[QuantumEdge]

"Facepalm."  I forgot until now that Jason Griffith has been said to be a Sonic fan.  How did I not remember that?

[Scott]

Well, I like Sonic?

 

Does that count?

[MegaMonster54]

I know James Franco is a Sonic Fan... I think Louis Lovhagen was a fan of the games, but he doesn't like the fanbase all that much... James Rolfe is a sonic fan... Mike Matei might be one, but I'm not sure.
