I collect German WW1 and WW2 militaria and I would like to know if
information is available regarding any celebrities that share the same
hobby. Thanks!

Hello Budulai,
I wish to take a stab at your question. Below are my findings:

Links to pages that mention celebrities:
Ananova - Ozzy Osbourne sells his Nazi collection to Lemmy
http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_565480.html?menu=news.celebrities
- Ozzie Osbourne is the source of Nazi material now owned by Lemmy
Kilminster of Motorhead.

Universal Press -- Goldstein found dead
http://members.aol.com/svbtitan/greenpages/article.html
- Jacob Goldstein, a philantropist, was also a Nazi memorabilia
collector

These may be the only high-profile people collecting Nazi and German
military paraphernalia. I would understand that there are few since
the hobby is very controversial, as some articles below indicate.

I hope this has been a satisfactory answer. If there is any problem
with it, do please post a request for clarification. Thank you.

I know there wasnt much to be expected as celebrities who would do
this would naturally keep low profile, but those additional links,
while not on topic, are a nice bonus, very interesting for me as a
collector! Thanks!

Marge Schott, the controversial former owner of the Cincinnati Reds,
collects Nazi memorabilia.

So does Lemmy Kilminster, singer / bass play with Motorhead.

If you believe this bulletin board site
http://dan.elwood.net/aykroyd/wwwboard/messages/521.htm, Dan Ackroyd
is a collector although the idea screams to be an Irwin Mainway
sketch.

Thank you for the five star rating! I am glad the extra links I got
were very helpful. So you are a collector too! I see nothing wrong
with it.

I'm a modeler and I have some kits of German planes, though I don't
think it's wrong to build them. Hope you have fun collecting! :)
