Should be removed. Bryan Adams is a Canadian, not an American as the article suggests.

I don't know about the others but Spears is of extremely distant Maltese descent. I personally object to the notion of trying to associate an ethnic group with a famous person who has only a trivially small relationship to the group.

I've replaced the list with a reference to the category. I'm placing the list here for future reference.

• Joseph Calleia - actor, the first to sing a Maltese ballad in a Hollywood film.
• Jason Bateman - actor, noted for Arrested Development, of Maltese maternal descent.
• Justine Bateman - actress, known for Family Ties, sister of Jason.
• Ray Buttigieg - poet and musician born on Gozo.
• Danielle Fishel - actress, known for Boy Meets World, Maltese mother ^{citation needed}.
• Oreste Kirkop - opera singer who performed the leading role of François Villonin the 1956 Paramount Pictures film 1956 film version of The Vagabond King
• Brent Muscat - guitar player for Faster Pussycat and L.A. Guns.
• Anthony Perici - first full-time Mayor of Twinsburg, Ohio (1976–1987). ^[1]
• Joe Sacco - journalist and cartoonist.
• Britney Spears - Singer and actress.
• Lady Gaga - Singer
• Chris Grech - writer for Noreast Saltwater Magazine, 100% Maltese descent

By the way, I added Britney Spears after someone requested her inclusion on the Entertainment Reference Desk. Her Maltese descent seems to be reliably cited, which is more than can be said for some others mentioned here. Rojomoke ( talk) 07:51, 24 September 2010 (UTC) reply

There's a picture of her on this article, but she's not in the category and I don't see anything about being of Maltese descent in her article.-- T. Anthony ( talk) 01:23, 9 January 2011 (UTC) reply
