Bond Girl Bérénice Marlohe is half Cambodian, that's enough for me.

Well it can't be for singingricecakes wrote:jesusviolet wrote:Radioactive Anne would be classed as an expat. She's quite famous
for what ?
My posts are just jokes, maybe they're rude, offensive, and politically incorrect. They're not my opinion, viewpoint, idea, or judgement, but they're just fucking jokes so lighten up.
I think I'd differentiate between legendary and famous.
For me, people like Roddy (rip), Francois and Declan are what made this place so special 10+ years ago. They are real legends and I'll remember the crazy shit they (sometimes we) got up to for the rest of my life. They were the kind of people and times I'm never likely to experience again.
If you want to talk about fame then sure, Angelina wins, but she has nothing to do with PP expat folklore and she has made no difference to any of our lives.

I would agree with LTO's list overall, but personally I vote for Victor Chow. The old days of Eagle Force and hanging out in the Manhattan club are days I will not soon forget. Had great laughs still even when I visited him in Prey Sar...him carrying that myna bird around in a cage like the birdman of Alcatraz.

Could always just go to Google and search largest Facebook audience Cambodia based pages. Look for the pages run by a resident expat near the top of the list. Doesn't make him famous as such but he has access to a a very large Cambodian audience.

i'd throw Jackie chan into the mix...recognisable by most Cambodians...Lucky Lucan wrote:Past visitors, Charlie Chaplin wins by a long shot. Sure, Haile Selassie, Charles de Gaulle, Nicolae Ceaușescu and Jackie Kennedy came by, but that mostly just politics. Charlie Chaplin is remembered most, whatever about his dubious reputation
He's been in his room 35 years...time to let him out!

Famous are the ones that are known out there, questionable long term expats does not come to mind here.
That would be infamous.

Bretton Sciaroni, perhaps, although I wouldn't use the word 'famous' I get the impression most people know who he is.
