I'm viewing this in descending chronological order so I'm not seeing the crap. Anyway: there are a few lists on the web purporting to catalogue well-known people with Tourette's, and they are all either over-inclusive (bloated by wishful-thinking self-reports or dodgy historical diagnoses based on urban folklore) or populated by people I've never heard of. David Beckham features on some of them, but he doesn't have it - he has OCD, which is an entirely different condition which sometimes co-occurs with Tourette's.

It's not at all clear how common Tourette's is. Not only could I not name any famous sufferer, I've never met anyone at all who clearly had it, though I've met many people with conditions with a reputation for being a lot rarer. The higher incidence estimates have to be wrong.

Unpleasant thing to have, anyway. I've had occasional vocal tics myself in the past, but nothing like what Tourette's sufferers have to put up with.
