Is it wrong that I don't even know who Dan Brown is?

According to Raving Road Warrior Queen magazine...I'm sorry, Forbes magazine (via Bricks and Stones),

The top ten most influential celebrities are as follows:
1. TOM CRUISE
2. THE ROLLING STONES
3. OPRAH WINFREY
4. U2
5. TIGER WOODS
6. STEVE SPIELBERG
7. HOWARD STERN
8. 50 CENT
9. CAST OF THE SOPRANOS
10. DAN BROWN

Now-leaving out what I may personally think of any of these celebrities-at least, I know who nine of them are.
