4. Please choose persons real or fictional that are not horribly obscure. No repeats.
5. Whoever guesses correctly takes over from the previous question master. If they do not want to do it, they may choose who to pass the duty onto or just give it to the first volunteer.

Yes. I won't count that as a question. Take it as a Christmas gift.

Would it be normal to buy a ticket (for example, to a movie, to a game, to a performance, etc etc) to watch this person do what they are known for?
