Well if you are South American or Mexican, you may think of Subcomandante Marcos. Probably one of the most famous living pipe smokers in that region. Pretty cool dude, though some would probably call him a terrorist.

"The Staircase" defendant smokes a pipe, he's pretty famous.
Novelist Michael Peterson
Magnum is so cool I’d consider him a pipe smoker even if he wasn’t.
Keith Richards lives about 15 miles away from me in CT. Some years ago I stopped into a small antique/thrift shop near us and asked if they had any old tobacco pipes. I was told Keith had purchased them the previous week, that he occasionally stopped in and asked for them.

William Friedkin Oscar winning director of The Exorcist and The French Connection (did you ever pick your feet in Poughkeepsie?) smoked a pipe back in the day.
Me? Well I am certainly a legend in my own lunch hour 
While he is certainly not a celebrity in the traditional sense, there is a prominent composer in my field (classical music) who is a pipe smoker. Dan Locklair. In fact, like myself, he also plays the pipe organ so he enjoys both smoking and playing pipes! I’ve played a few of his works, and some have become “standard rep” for American organists.
His website(Locklair.com)is full of publicity pics, and in every one he is with a pipe. His music room is obviously his smoking room as well, as at least two of the shots show he has pipes piled high on his piano. Sounds like a good life, surrounded by keyboard instruments and pipes!

I read somewhere Buzz Aldrin is a pipe smoker. I think the British actor Stephen Fry is as well.
I wonder if he was the first man to pipe in space? Probably would've been difficult to load the bowl in zero gravity. ?
Not to mention the minor issue of lighting something in a pure oxygen environment! It would light a bit TOO easily.
PURE oxy environment? That doesn't sound quite right. Are you sure?
And, yeah, you can't use gravity feed, but one finger stuff should work fine!
Yep. AFAIK, all the Apollo capsules used 100 percent pure oxygen, even after the fire that killed the Apollo 1 crew. Apparently OSHA didn’t have jurisdiction over NASA! (Actually, OSHA didn’t exist until 1970).
I watched the original Alien movie (1979) last week, and it was kinda funny with all the cigarettes being smoked on the ship.
In space, no one hears the antis scream.
Back in the heyday of smoking in general, ones preferred smoke was a trademark often included in informal portraits by portrait photographers or photo journalists. This was driven home when all of the allied world leaders were pictured with their smoking gear: Roosevelt with his cigarette holder; MacArthur with his tall corncob pipes; Churchill with his fat cigar; and Stalin with his pipe, and many other folks who followed this trend. Today most leaders and celebrities high and low wouldn't ever be intentionally photographed smoking. Just not well accepted as a public gesture anymore. Senator Fred Thompson was frequently pictured with his pipes at the Watergate hearings, among the last of a fading breed.
Yes I found photographic evidence that the creature itself liked the odd bowl full, everybody needs a hobby I suppose. I wonder if he used his 'extra mouth' to clench?
yes doing an imitation of the Gorton's Fisherman.
