“She definitely is. When my kids were born, the hospital gave me a paper that allowed us to sign up for free books through her foundation: The Dolly Parton Book Club. She established this free service so kids could learn and grow. My guess is she has put in millions of dollars of her own money. No gimmicks, no buybacks, no strings attached. A truly caring person.” —inewland “She also gave a a large chunk of money that helped successfully find one of the COVID vaccines."—cyberfrog777 “Watching him learn that real folks still have his back has been one of the great joys of my life.” —dbsgirl “I just love his voice! He’s a great actor, and it’s so sad what happened, but I’m so glad he’s getting back into roles again!!!” —MommaOats-1
I don’t know — to me he’s just an awesome person overall.” —Murazama “I think it’s also that he has been through such devastating losses and he chose to find peace and be a positive person instead of letting it break him. Hard to do.” —DianneQuinn
“If I ever hear of any scandal involving Weird Al, I’ll eat my poodle hat. The man is a treasure and puts on a helluva live show (we went in July and had so much fun!)."—Upstairs_Usual_4841 “I love telling this story: So two of my friends got cast in the ‘White & Nerdy’ video. They were dating at the time (eventually got married) so they had different last names. When they got to the set Weird Al was there to greet them personally, and he knew them by name when they showed up. He put together that they were a couple right away and bent over backward to make sure they were accommodated and got a room together and everything. He was blown away that he cast a couple separately in the video and told everyone on set about it. They said he was the nicest, most humble, and hardworking person they had ever met. Weird Al is absolutely a gem of a human.” —melskymob “Check out the vid where he recognizes one of his former students that is doing interviews — wholesome goodness.” —cyberfrog777 “Had some friends who babysat his kid years back, and they described him as extremely humble and pleasant to work for!"—Complete-Employee-12 “The man quit his career to raise his family. Noblest among the Knights of Nerddom, he is!"—plus-ordinary258 “A Canadian angel.” —Comprehensive-Home-4
“He just broke the record for most Make-A-Wish Foundation visits with 650! Great guy…hilarious too.” —daddydollars74 “There was a story about a family that had to seek refuge in another country but the child who had special needs kept asking his mom why they were leaving their home. She told him they were meeting John Cena — he heard about this and flew there to meet him.” —short_note “RIP Chadwick. That’s one actor’s death that really makes me feel so sad still to this day. He did amazing work on and off the screen. Damn."—Antdawg2400 “He is such a sweet man. My wife was at the airport and crying because she’d packed her anxiety meds in the wrong bag and was having a panic attack. Henry Winkler came up to her and asked if she was okay, sat with her for a second, and squeezed her shoulder. Really calmed her down and helped her get to her gate okay. The best kind of guy.” —disasterlesbianrn “My wife works in entertainment and was working with Henry Winkler. He found out that my wife was three months pregnant and sent all his children’s books to us and black and white cookies from Bea’s Bakery in Los Angeles because my wife misses black and white cookies from Manhattan. He only knew my wife for a couple of hours, LOL. He is No. 1 on my list. I say this also as someone who really hates the industry. There are a lot of normal nice people, but man, the assholes are plentiful.” —WakaWakahh
“There is a very moving documentary about how Steve Buscemi went to help FDNY after 9/11. He just seemed like a wonderful human being."—Ok_Tap662 “I heard he was so nice and down to earth.” —Comprehensive-Home-4 “One of the interesting things I heard about Shaq is that his momma raised him to be humble and she helped keep him on that track when he was a rising star. Who can’t like a person who respects his mother after becoming a superstar?” —Lost_my_brainjuice “Since he moved to Texas he has been around locally and will stop everything to pay for purchases about to be made by everyone already in line. So far I know about Walmart and HEB. I doubt those are the only ones.” —Low_Ad_3139
“Truly inspirational. Did amazing work for animals and really put herself out there against racism in the 1950s."—altmoonjunkie “One of the all-time nicest according to everything I heard about her.” —silasoulman “Ken Jeong is very nice! Can confirm!” —FancyAdult
“Tom Hanks was the first one I thought of."—Merry-Pulsar-1734 “I’ve always heard and thought this, and it is confirmed by hearing him as a guest on any podcast (Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, Fly on the Wall With Dana Carvey and David Spade, SmartLess, etc.)… Clearly seems like a genuinely great dude."—MarleyRob32
