  • 1: Never heard of 'em.
  • 2:Recognize by name: You know this person's name, but you aren't sure who they are;
  • 3:Somewhat: You know who this person is, ie: you know their profession, you might know one or two details about them, ie: if a well known film-maker, you might be able to name their last or greatest movie and no more;
  • 4: Very: You know who this person is and why they are famous, you know a bit about their achievements, for example if a film-maker, you know their most important movies, may have seen a few, but probably can't name every movie they've ever produced;
  • 5: Extremely: You know a lot about what makes this person important, for example if a politician, you know their position on all the key issues, you might also know details about their personal life and their professional history before they became famous;
