About Us

It's in human nature to be interested in people who are in news and people who make news. We all want to know who are the top singers, actors, painters, footballers, aviators, magicians, chefs, socialites, environmentalists and so on. Though everyone has their own favorites, they are based on individual biases and preferences. What may appeal to one person may not appeal to other. The problem then is how to curate a list of top personalities in different spheres of life and rank them. That's how the idea of TheFamousPeople.com germinated.

We consider that the wisdom of the crowd is better than the wisdom of few experts. Our lists are based on a wide spectrum of opinion—including the insights given by our audience and the latest social media trends. This data is then filtered by our intelligent technology which helps churn out the most definitive and credible rankings.

With a huge database of more than 1,00,000 prominent personalities and over 50,000 lists, we attract more than 10 million monthly unique visitors and are regularly cited by teachers, researchers, and publications.
