Bush ahead of him in the U.S. and Gates topping the list in China; the Queen is the most admired woman overall, trailed by Jolie and Oprah, and the results show strong political, business and sports figures across nations while highlighting gender imbalances in some countries.

Based on surveys of 13,895 people in 13 countries, the document also asks who is the most famous person in the world, with Obama leading that question.

09-COVER STORY.01
This piece is a wry, insider’s diary of the 83rd Academy Awards weekend, tracing the race between The King’s Speech and The Social Network while chronicling the swirling world of pre- and post-Oscar parties, red-carpet maneuvers, and the publicity machine that can make or break a film. Through the eyes of Fran Lebowitz, it captures the glamour, gossip, and strategy—from Peggy Siegal’s Oscar-season theatrics to Harvey Weinstein’s tireless campaigning, to the fashion crises and luminous chaos of the Beverly Hills hotels and Vanity Fair soirees. It also situates the moment in a larger world of headlines and political undercurrents, showing how the glitz and grind of Hollywood intersect with real-world stakes. The result is a vivid, witty portrait of how one crown is won not just by art, but by audacity, access, and image.
