10. John Lennon
John Winston Lennon was an English singer and songwriter who became famous worldwide because he co-founded the band The Beatles, which is the most commercially successful band in the history of popular music.
Lennon was born in war-time England, to Julia (born Stanley) and Alfred Lennon, a merchant seaman of Irish descent, who was away at the time of his son’s birth. What most people don’t know is that Mimi Smith, Julia’s sister, complained to social services twice about Lennon’s familial situation – or lack thereof – before she assumed custody of her nephew.
