Bruce Dickinson/John Travolta and others

Great actor/director (rip) Sydney Pollack owned and flew a Citation X, Tom Cruise flies his P51 and his two L39, Lorenzo Lama I think an L39 as well, a former Star Treck dude flies an F86, I've seen Harrison Ford right seat in a GIV at Le Bourget (Paris) airport,...
 
He's got other planes too, including a Gulfstream and an Eclipse Jet. He's single pilot typed on the Eclipse, and has the following other types. LR-JET, HS-125, CE-500 (VFR only), and has an authorization to fly a Soko G-2 (Yugoslavian trainer). Somehow, I don't think somebody is going to do all that and not love aviation.

Angelina Jolie has a private/instrument and flies an SR-22, I believe. Many of the NASCAR owners/drivers own and fly their own planes, from pistons to jets.

If you go around NC airports you will see a ton of nascar pilots and their planes, some have King Airs and Citations. Out of Davidson County airport, where my boss plane is based at the moment there are two pilots (nascar) with each his Corvalis.

Nikka Lauda, famous F1 racer, he is pilot on his own Learjet and owns an airline.
 
Jimmy Buffett http://www.buffettworld.com/aviation.php. He has also owned a Falcon 50 and a Citation II that I know of.

Morgan Freeman has an SJ30, I hope it works for him.

Steve McQueen http://www.elizabethpitcairn.com/html/harold_mcqueen.pdf

I met Steve McQueen briefly at a fly-in in the 1970's when he stopped to talk to my Grandpa about his Waco. Verry nice man and shook my hand. Of course I didn't understand his signifigance and didn't get an autograph.
 
Bill Elliot has an awesome plane I've seen once in SQL. N9BE with a big #9 on the tail and painted in his racing colors. Called an epic, I forget who makes it, but its awesome.
 
"Guys guys, I'm just like everyone else, I put on my pants one leg at a time, then I make Gold Records."
 
Dexter Holland, singer for The Offspring owns and flies a CJ3 with a big red anarchy symbol painted on the tail.
 
I hate to say it, but Kenny G has a few airplanes and flies them a lot.

He's also a scratch golfer. Hate him very much.

Back a couple of years ago when AOPA did their story on NASCAR pilots, he was in it. I seem to recall he's owned about anything that's flown. At one point I seem to recall he's had a Citation, a Conquest and various other piston multi's, and I think maybe a Bell 407.
 
There is quite a few celebrities/ hollywood types for this list.

How about Fergie. Yes, of Black Eyed P's fame.
