Well... some Irish ones...

Phil Lynott - Lead singer of Thin Lizzy defitely springs to mind.  He's
massively famous in Ireland and the band was pretty internationally famous
as well.

Eamon de Valera - Politician, but also a centre point for Irish Culture
for over 40 years.  Republican and Conservative, harkening back to a 
"simpler" Ireland.  Internationally famous as a historical figure, but in
Ireland very much a part of what could be called 'pop culture'.
