maybe not really a "fan", but i remember a radio show/interview with football (soccer) player frank rijkaard on dutch vpro radio in the early 90's where he mentioned a bunch of bands he liked and sonic youth were among them. i was kind of surprised considering the notoriously bad taste football players are known for. i also once spoke somebody who claimed having seen him at a sy gig once, but i don't think i believe that.
anyway, he's probably not a celebrity in the usa but he was quite famous in large parts of the world. a legend as a player during his time for ac milan and recently he won his first champions league title as manager of fc barcelona.
