Pop Idol: Cowell Outranks God More Famous Than God? 10:45am UK, Monday December 15, 2008 John Lennon may have claimed The Beatles were "more popular than Jesus", but Simon Cowell can now claim to be "more famous" than God, thanks to a survey of British kids. In a sample of 1,600 under-10s, the TV personality was the top answer to the question: "Who is the most famous person in all the world?" God and the Queen ran a close second and third. The youngsters put 'good looks' at the top of the "very best things in the world" list while the most common answer to the "very worst things in the world" was 'being fat'. This was followed closely by 'divorce'. And when asked what rules they would make if they were king or queen of the world, the number one response was 'to ban divorce'. In addition, those surveyed said 'bullying' would also be banned - up from number three last year and number five the year before. Saturday remains the best day of the week for most, because there is no school and they can stay up late to watch television. Patricia Murchie, of Luton First - who carried out the research - said: "It seems clear that many pre-teens are more concerned than ever with their looks and weight - possibly reflecting media images of glamour, and new educational initiatives in nutrition and healthy eating." About two-thirds of the children who took part said they were happy, but 27% were not and a further 7% were unsure. :: The nationwide research was carried out by Luton First, sponsors and organisers of the fourth annual National Kids' Day.
