-Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho): famous for "toe-tapping."
-Sir Laurence Olivier (actor): arrested for cottaging in 1953.
-George Michael (pop star): not to be confused for the character on Fox's Arrested Development played by Michael Cera.
-Ringo Starr (born Richard Starkley, actor, drummer): never actually arrested for cruising in lavatories, but what list would be complete without him?
-Socrates (bare-footed hippie): listed here as a synecdoche for the entire culture of public toilets & gymnasiums.
-Alan Jones (Australian radio personality): fell afoul of Westminster by-laws in a WC in London's West End, 1988.

-Christopher Aitken (Swedish Pop star): Disorderly conduct is actually permitted in Sweden, but is discouraged (for obvious reasons) by vocal professions.
-Barbara Walters (revolutionary female reporter): accidentally arrested in the wrong bathroom for lewd behavior, was actually just rehearsing her tap-dancing routine.
-Frederick William Serafino Austin Lewis Mary Rolfe, the Baron Corvo (19th Century English novelist & 'eccentric'): Most of his names would stay home & carouse with the boys at his estate whilst Lewis or Mary would parole the tea-rooms.
-Alexander (Emperor): conquered the known world in search of beats.
-Rev. Ted Haggard (defrocked President of the National Association of Evangelicals): Who needs bathrooms when you have the entire infrastructure of mega-churches? but the reverend liked to dabble in everything he condemned.
