There is a fairly big connotational difference.

おもしろいぼうし is a funny-looking hat that the speaker likes and wouldn't probably mind wearing himself.

変なぼうし is a funny-looking hat that the speaker probably wouldn't want to wear himself.

変な人 is anyone that you think is strange/weird/unusual/unconventional, etc.
