    If you’ve not heard of these people, it’s likely a cultural difference. They’re definitely all well known people. Dua Lipa is one of the most popular pop stars in the UK and USA (and presumably worldwide) , Gary Lineker is a former football player, turned sports commentator, and Benedict Cumberbatch is an A-List actor.

      It seems like they have fans here, judging by the downvotes.

      Definitely a cultural difference. Dua Lipa sounds alright. A few songs have now been added to the library. Cinema - haven’t been in a while and most films I watch are somewhat randomly picked from whichever streaming site I’m on. Cumberbatch doesn’t seem to be in the stuff I stumble upon. Football… yeah, can only name Maradona, Bellingham, Ronaldo, and Messi.
      I just generally don’t pay attention to names.
