The Go-Go’s Belinda Carlisle, Who Now Lives In Bangkok, Says She Left LA Because She Didn’t Want To Spend Her Final Years In “A Country Club”

 

Not a bad read, but it seems like I can't paste a link?

 

 

Any other celebrities that moved to LOS?

 

 

I was a bit of a celebrity in my home town in rural Australia.    
Does that count?    555

Former Miss Universe married Thai tennis player Paradorn. Still in LOS I think.

Hot as back in her day. Still wouldn't mind bumping her now...in any respect

formerly married.

Ron Tavel lived in my building.
(Ronald Tavel (May 17, 1936 – March 23, 2009) was an American screenwriter, director, novelist, poet and actor, best known for his work with Andy Warhol and The Factory.)

Goes to prove the point, rich tourists are NOT likely to flock to Thailand now or anytime ever in the future.

Jim Rose and Bebe the Circus Queen of the Jim Rose "Circus of the Scars" in Chiang Mai. Think they're in Mae Rim now.

Marc Faber, the Swiss investor and publisher of the Gloom Boom & Doom Report  newsletter, resides in Chiang Mai.

 

I heard that the Pope has a caravan in Bang Saen for dirty weekends.

Apparently its a real posh one with velvet flock wallpaper, fur lined handcuffs and an inside khazi, which doubles as a confession box.

 

 

Michael Jackson's monkey,  Bubbles is living and working in government 

I was told.

Steven Leather spends most of his time in Thailand whether he is here right now due to Covid is another matter. Great author and script writer.

Elvis…and his dog.

Wonder if he staples dollar bills to his forehead in the local bar.?

 

Or drinks "bile beer" there..? ????

So far, the only name I recognize that people have provided is Marc Faber. But even he is just a sort of niche figure who used to appear on financial shows on the weekend.

this forum will only be aware of Western celebrities.

I'm sure there are Japanese, Korean and maybe Russian celebrities in Thailand.

There was this story years ago about this Russian orchestra conductor ...

Remarried to a Panamanian entrepreneur called Dean Kelly and still resides in Bangkok, so I guess she counts.

Molly Meldrum, TV presenter pop music 30 years ago in Australia, came to Bkk, opened a bar believing that he would receive instant amazing fame & recognition. In reality achieved very little.

Don’t forget  the famous drug dealers, bikie enforcers and other slippery lowlife that are continually being found here. 
First stop for any drug lord is usually Thailand and then Dubai.

Cha-Am resident Nissa Nyberget tells me he's a celebrity in Norway. Does that count?

Steven Tyler (Aerosmith), Beyonce, Stevan Seagal, Jon Claude Van Dame, Leonardo De Caprio  and many other actors, singers, entertainers have visited Thailand even though they don't live here.

Former Spurs and England player Gary Stevens lives in Hua Hin
