(1) If some celebrity or public figure appears in a dream, the person may be there to express something about you or someone close to you.

(2) A famous person may represent what you would like to be. This may correspond to your shadow-self, the other side of your personality that is still buried in your unconscious. If so, it means you should incorporate into your conscious life those desired qualities that you see in the famous person, because they are already present - latent - in you.

(3) Alternately, what the famous person represents may be a part of your personality or behaviour patterns that you have refused to acknowledge - for example, aggressiveness or a will to dominate.
