About this Guess the Celebrity quiz

Guess the celebrity from a few quick clues: a nickname, a famous role or record, or a detail only true fans will know. This guess the celebrity quiz features 15 stars from film, music, sport and television, from Bollywood legends and cricket heroes to global pop icons and Hollywood greats.

Instead of photos, every round uses written clues, which makes the game fairer and more fun: you have to actually know your stars rather than just recognise a face. Early rounds are easy, while the last few reach back to classic cinema and will test even keen movie buffs.

It works as a solo challenge or as a guess the celebrity game for a party, a classroom break or a family evening. Read the clues aloud and let teams shout out answers, or play on your phone and share your score. Every answer comes with a short fact, and the full answer key is below the quiz.

Fun fact: A. R. Rahman won two Oscars on the same night in 2009, for the score and the song 'Jai Ho' from Slumdog Millionaire, a first for an Indian.
