Both have Wiki entries and although both are Brits (sorry! :)) they are internationally known, if not renowned... It might help a bit! :)
It does seem odd that there aren't more - but I've mused on this celebrity thing before - I think it demonstrates the stigma that remains with this and therefore, while there certainly are celebrity and famous CDers out there, the only ones likely to come out are those that are probably on the road to transition... At least we have a couple of Brits flying the flag! Hoorah!
