Who is the nicest, most genuine celeb you've met?

I'll start:

Matthew Kelly - very tall, laughs a lot. Really nice man - and polite to waiters which is always a test.

Keanu Reeves - never met him alas but he seems to live a quiet life and doesn't take himself too seriously.

Jo Brand - down to earth, warm hearted, gives credit to other people in comedy which is RARE.

Not met per se, but I had a work-related phone call with Kate Adie years ago. She was at home and playing 70s disco quite loudly. Respect Grin

Has anyone met Sarah Beeney? Watched her restoration nightmare series over Christmas. Both Sarah & her husband came across as really nice people Smile

The late sir Ken Dodd . He was so humble and a lovely kind man .

I also met Sir Ken Dodd when I worked at Alder Hey children's hospital as he was a regular visitor and a total star, hilarious and generous with the children, in fact we had many visitors whilst I worked there who were lovely including the Duchess of Kent.
My claim to fame is that I've made 3 comics laugh, not that embarrassing sort of let's throw them a life belt kind of smirk but a proper laugh, Caroline Aherne, Nish Kumar and Susan Calman who were all really lovely.

Simon Cowell - he was so lovely and couldn’t believe I was excited to meet him. He spent some time chatting and took a photo with my friend and I Smile

Zoe Ball
She was totally humble and children were very well mannered

Calum Best
Chris and Pui
Kim of Kim and Aggie
Leanne Campbell (a Liverpool radio sleb but worth mentioning because she was so nice)
These are all forever on my Good List because every one of them has been really lovely to my little DD.

Martin Clunes. He’s a total honey.

Bruce & Wilnelia Forsyth. Lovely genuine people - and she's so beautiful

I saw Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee in an airport a few years ago. They were being really friendly to everyone (posing for pix etc)

Btw, have you seen that MNHQ is proposing to cut some topics, and that this is one of them?

It's nice to hear about the nice celebs for a change.
Usually we just hear about the rude, entitled, egotistical ones.

Joanna Lumley is THE biggest babe you could ever meet. So so lovely

anitagreen · 14/05/2019 20:13

@ShirleyPhallus my dad met her once she asked him for a lighter in central London (he's a window cleaner) really early in the morning didn't realise who she was till after, and she sat and spoke to him about what shops and businesses he does and he said she was the loveliest person he's ever met.
