Hollywood is known for its glitz, glamour, and larger-than-life personalities. But amidst the flashing lights and superstar egos, there are a few celebrities who have managed to maintain their down-to-earth demeanor and reputation for being genuinely nice. Here are the 20 nicest celebs in Hollywood according to people who actually met them!
Ian McKellan
“He sat down on some empty theatre steps with me and engaged in a whole conversation. It was awesome, and I will never forget it!”
“He spoke to me for about 5 minutes. It was like seeing a friend. He had this incredibly warm personality.
Matthew McConaughey
“When the drunk guy asked “Aren’t you the McConaughey guy?” he laughed and bought everyone drinks. Then he took his shirt off and played bongos with a band.”
“That absolutely sounds like something Matthew McConaughey would do.”
“A girl I went to college with was a waitress at an upscale restaurant in high school and told us a ton of stories about how he would come in frequently. She said he came in frequently shirtless and stinky from just working out, but was beloved by all the staff. He knew all their names and would tip front and back of the house 100s.”
Tom Hanks
“He came into my break room and took a random selfie with everyone in the room. Most celebrities don’t speak to Cast Members, let alone go out of their way to interact.”
A friend of mine used to do architecture work for celebrities in the mid-eighties. His hands down favorite person was Tom Hanks. Tom was the only person that paid immediately for the work and would treat him like another human being without hesitation. Whenever the topic came up, he always gushed about Tom. Since then, I’ve never heard anything bad about Tom – ever.
Henry Cavill
“My friend said he was nothing but nice all day despite the odd surroundings and even swung by their little fundraising event afterward.”
“Cavill himself is super chill and undemanding, so the cabin crew just served coffee and spent the next 4 hours giving belly rubs to his dog.”
Jeff Goldblum
“His real-life persona matches the on-screen one exactly.”
“My buddy met him a few months ago. Basically, gave the same review; very kind but definitely eccentric. Took the time for autographs and pictures.”
Adam Sandler
“Such a sweet guy. He brought his family over, and we hung out with him for like 3 hours, and we just chilled. He is an amazing dude.”
“He would stick around after filming to hang out with those that came to watch. I’ll never forget him chatting it up with a little boy, and the kid just dropping his ice cream in awe.”
Scarlett Johansson
“Super sweet and really bubbly. She just had this charming aura about her.”
“I cooked for her when she was filming the avengers in Cleveland; she was bubbly and insisted on paying the check.”
John Mulaney
“He wanted to pay for someone else’s room, so he was at my desk for like five minutes while I set that up. He’s a genuinely nice guy.”
“My friend helped him with a private party and said he was really nice and chatty.”
Jason Momoa
“He’s an absolute treasure to be around. He’s genuine and loves his job. He wants his fans to have as much fun as he’s having.”
“He could really vibe with how each fan felt, so he could be whacky or more chill, depending on who he was engaging with.”
Lenny Kravitz
“Incredibly humble, down to earth, laid back, and friendly.”
“Lenny Kravitz used to stay a lot at the hotel I worked at; one of the coolest dudes ever became a somewhat regular at the bar I manned; SUPER nice guy.”
Peter Dinklage
“He wanted to take silly pictures with me, and I was like, “WOW TYRION WANTS TO TAKE PICTURES WITH ME.” Great dude.”
“Security stopped my brother, but not before Peter saw him; he asked security to let go and gave him his autograph. Mad respect to him for that.”
Hugh Laurie
“Having met Hugh Laurie in person, I can confidently state that he is one of the nicest and most humble celebrities out there. Not only is he completely happy to interact with his fans, but he also does so in a way that makes each and every one of them feel like they’re a friend.”
“The most sincere thing I ever saw him do was give a homeless person who lived right outside his trailer an unknown amount of cash on our final day of shooting at that specific location. He had befriended her, and I just remember him hugging her and then seeing her cry (from what I assumed were tears of joy) after he’d left. One of my favorite stories to tell and greatest act of kindness I’ve seen.”
Anne Hathaway
“She’s a sweetheart and a genuinely nice person. I’m glad I got to meet her.”
“Anne noticed I was clearly just an average joe and actually spoke to me, made some jokes, and shook my hand. She came across as genuine and kind.”
Robin Williams
“So engaging and generous with his time.”
“He’s one of the celebs I was here to post. Super normal, easy-going, and smart.”
“He was so sweet; smiling, shaking hands; a national treasure.”
Sean Astin
“He seemed to be a genuinely humble, kind man who appreciates the success he’s had, his fans, and just life in general.”
“I tried my best not to fan out, which was a bit easier since he was so humble and down to earth.”
Danny Devito
“So, my girl’s friend flags down Danny as he’s walking by, and he ends up sitting with us for a solid 2 hours. Buys us a couple of rounds.”
“He was a class act, a thoughtful communicator, attentive and respectful to my youthful enthusiasm.”
Joe Jonas
“They hadn’t recognized Joe Jonas, and actually asked him to take a photo of them with Sofie Turner; he took it like a champ and took their picture with her and then chatted a bit with them about the city.”
Mister Rogers
“Absolutely as kind and gentle and lovely as he seemed on TV.”
“I was lucky enough to spend 6 hours sitting next to the man on an airplane. I was 7. Highlight of my life.”
Alan Alda
“He took my hand for a second and made a joke about being surprised I knew about the show because I was young. Once I got past my absolute embarrassment, I realized he was so gracious and patient with me when he could have easily been a jerk. Great human being.”
John Barrowman
“He is so cool and gives amazing hugs.”
John Barrowman
“I’ve met John a few times, and he’s so nice and so damn funny. He took a selfie with us so we didn’t have to wait in line and pay, because he liked our cosplay outfits.”
