Hope this is appropriate for the forum...! OK so I live in LA and after seeing a celebrity at my barn, I started googling celebrities riding horses and am kind of amusing myself w/ checking out some of the famous folks riding... :)
Here's some of the ones I've found... Not sure why it makes me happy, i guess I just love knowing no body can deny how awesome horses are :D

Feel free to contribute..!

When I was a kid, I took saddleseat lessons at a barn where William Shatner kept a few of his horses in training. Never did see him there, but the little girls would all gossip about who had met him.

speaking of William Shatner (Captain Kirk on the original 1960's StarTrek), he wrote an autobiography that was so funny, it had me in stitches! really a good read.
can't remember the name, though.

George Strait team ropes with his son.

Jillian Michaels, one of the trainers on Biggest Loser, has a horse. They were on an episode of Dog Whisperer because she wanted the dog at the barn with her but it would dart into the arena while she was trying to ride and it NEVER shut up.

I've been in and around hunter/jumper barns most of my life and I have seen quite a few riders wearing chaps like that. It's just a personal preference thing.
Not saying that proves Lucy Liu rides. The picture actually looks kinda photo shopped to me.

If you've ever been a General Hospital fan, Lynn Herring (Lucy) has her own horses and so does Leslie Charleston (Monica). Also, Sebastian Roche (Jerry Jax) judged the costume class in a really huge horse show (can't remember what one it was, big jumper show).

Also, the gal that plays Amy in Heartland has horses and had previous riding experience.

Here's a pretty sweet clip from the extras of LOTR, Viggo and Orlando speaking about the horses.

Return of the King Horse Lords featurette clip - YouTube

Apparently Viggo bought both of the horses he spent his time on set with, which I thought was pretty sweet.
AND the horse who played Hidalgo....I think his name is Pete. Viggo Mortensen is my favorite celebrity EVER and it is icing on the cake that he is a legit horseman.

I freaking love Viggo Mortensen.

I saw a picture of Justin Bieber on a horse once... he was wearing a clean and pressed white shirt... leading me to believe someone just popped him up there for the photo... =P

Every time I see a picture of him on a horse I snort with laughter. While everyone else is going nuts that he's a "cowboy" all I can think is good lord that horse is a saint.

Johnny Depp has always liked horses as well
He adopted Goldeneye, the one-eyed Andalusian horse who played Gunpowder, Ichabod Crane's steed in Sleepy Hollow (1999), thereby saving him from the glue factory.
