Agree/ disagree/ opinion/ comments on this subject matter goes here in this thread.

I totally disagree with David Beckham still in the top 10 today. He is history. Is all about Cristiano Ronaldo now. He totally destroyed Czech Republic yesterday.

Bah! I don't understand, man, what happened to the Czechs?! How did those girly Portuguese defeat them!??!!? Well, I guess they did play better, but goddammit I hate them. Buncha whiners, just like those pesky Italians! That last goal was just brutal. They let 'em right in. Might as well have just left the field and let them score a couple more. [/rant]

Anyway, do they mean 'The worlds richest celebrities'? In either case, none of them are a zinch as powerful as the real powerful guys writing their million-dollar checks. Those are the ones you don't hear about often. 'Celebrities' are a joke.

Girly? Get out of here. C.Ronaldo rocks.

[Powerslave]

C'mon!! Like you said, he's just like Beckham, another backstreet boy and you know it!!!.

[Cyrus the virus]

Haha, The Police? Like, Sting? Hahaha.

Ronaldo is gaining power/popularity. The entire Portuguese team is filled with top-notch players and some of the best in any leagues. Doesn't help I'm half Portuguese and want them to win lol.

I hate to point this out but, shouldn't J.K. Rowling be a bit more than 9?

[Atlas]

Haha, The Police? Like, Sting? Hahaha.

Don't **** with Sting.

^_^

Beyonce? Really?

[Atlas]

I was surprised to see her rank above Jay-Z.

[Data]

Has she done anything new lately? Or is it because of her relationship with Jay-Z and her American Express commercials?

[Cyrus the virus]

I can't bring myself to imagine that Sting has any power whatsoever. Except for the power to play Fields of Gold and bring us to tears.

[Atlas]

Has she done anything new lately? Or is it because of her relationship with Jay-Z and her American Express commercials?

Haven't seen her on E or anything lately, which means she's probably laying low until her next album release.

Ronaldo was on the bench when Portugal lost 0-2. Good strategy to throw the game away to rest the players, and avoid injuries/ cards.

C'mon!! Like you said, he's just like Beckham, another backstreet boy and you know it!!!.

Yaa kind of like that. Anyway, Beckham is also a Spice Boy. So no problemo amigo.
