Need help - who can this be?

This is either a man or woman. Was very interested and "involved" in culture, society and politics. Has done thinhs few have copied. Liked horseback riding. Loved both food and drinks. Some wouldsay this person is world famous, even though this person isn't on the cover of magazines and papers daily. Grew up in a somewhat modern, combined family. Became a celeb at an early age, and media has written alot about him/her. A rolemodel for many. Who can it be?

Thank you!
