Yeah that may be an understatement, but why would a celebrity want to be a great pirate? I don't see him being a great help other then to piss of everyone else. Unless he has some sort of devil fruit power...

Somebody who has no fame, but hopes to be a celebrity would totally become a pirate. Just look at what happened to people like Gol D. Roger, Whitebeard, Shanks, Mihawk and Rayleigh. The great pirates of history are among the most feared and revered people in the entire One Piece world. Their faces are on posters all over the world, at the very least. :P
