    phelps is not that powerful celebrity for 2 reasons.

    1. caught smoking marijuana.
    2. he won in the olympics which has little monetary value. except for his endorsements, which eventually took a hit after being caught smoking marijuana, he would not really qualify.

    power is always equated to money and being able to influence the things around you, like boxing terms. pac was able to argue a 52-48 split in his favor. and he is a very hot sports commodity now with a lot of indorsements to boot.
