The Beatles went a little overboard when they said they were more popular than god....

Axel Rose, the Oasis guy, Bono, of course... damn, basically
anybody creating crap who dares to open his/her mouth to
say other than "I am sorry, I make crap for a living".
Edit. Lou Reed.
Some others:
Anthony Kiedis
Steven Tyler
Ozzy Osbourne

As for Lou, the few interviews I've seen from the guy, he
came forward as quite arrogant, I'd say. Maybe he was
stoned, lol

What do you say about Gene Simmons? The guy is arrogant
but I'll have to give it to him that his overconfidence comes
from his record of nailed ladies and his money, rather than
from the music itself. So he seems honest from that point
of view.

I don't know Gene Simmons' attitude too well.
