The thing is, I can't think of many people other than the President of the US who are well-known everywhere other than major worldwide stars. I mean, hell, even if you take any other random world leader, I guarantee you 70+% of Americans wouldn't even know who they are.
I bet one in ten Americans knows who Hu Jintao is.

Yeah, but that's Americans though, and we're often lampooned for our limited knowledge of geography and the goings on of events outside the US.
Just to give some names more recognizable than Gaga: Madonna, Britney Spears, Rihanna (music), Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt (film), Obama (politics)... I think there was some research that showed how Coca Cola and Madonna are the biggest brends ever, but maybe I dreamt about it...

Yeah, but first of all, we account for 300 million people.
Second, there are regions of the world with much higher populations that are likely exposed much less to other events going on around the world that don't directly affect them.

I forgot about Madonna, but Rihanna is more recognizable than Gaga? I don't think so.

Not really. Everyone has access to American movies, TV shows, etc.
