This will probably bring people out the woodwork to say they hate so and so celebrity but who are the ones that you never really hear a bad word said about them? My nomination is: Dolly Parton.

My dad hates so many of these people
the miserable contrary bastard

BritishHorrorStory · 20/10/2019 20:52

I can't believe I didn't include Kathy Burke in my OP as well as Dolly!! I love her. I don't know anybody that dislikes her. (My friend despises Linda from Gimme Gimme Gimme because she makes her feel sick but that's just a character, she doesn't despise Kathy lol)

Ooooooh @Mrsjayy so do I

Brian Cant from Play Away and Playschool. He always seemed lovely.

Yes, loved him and Floella Benjamin growing up.

Oh and I can believe the story about Stacey Solomon, I saw her at the swimming baths a few years ago and she gave me the filthiest look Angry

Love the Martin Clunes dog story too.

Harry Styles is meant to be a very nice person. Apparently shakes everyone’s hand when he enters a room and makes you feel like he has all the time in the world for you.
Whoever said Ashley Banjo I can confirm he’s lovely as is his brother Jordan.

Mrsjayy · 20/10/2019 21:05

Aww I like the Banjos

WombleishofThigh · 20/10/2019 21:07

"...the lovely Michael Ball" Confused Ugh!

IHaveBrilloHair · 20/10/2019 21:08

I'm a huge Harry Styles fan, and have never seen anything bad said about him.

evilharpy · 20/10/2019 21:08

I'd be gutted if Dwayne Johnson turned out to not be lovely in real life. He seems like a real sweetheart with time for everybody.

redeyetonowheregood · 20/10/2019 21:09

Michael Johnson - the athlete. Inspiring, polite, honest

Clare Balding - I love catching ramblings on radio 4

AllFourOfThem · 20/10/2019 21:09

Yes to George Michael.

Other tennis players who are known to be nice are Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.

LynetteScavo · 20/10/2019 21:10

I can't believe no one has mentioned the lovely Michael Ball.

ConfusedHmm

Just no.

Jurgen Klopp

Timothy Spall?

LittleSweet · 20/10/2019 21:14

SarahTancredi how could I forget Wentworth Miller? Obviously, just beautiful, but the speech he gave about coming out as gay was amazing. My heart melted, I cried a little. Very jealous you got to snog him and marry him.

DuckWillow · 20/10/2019 21:16

Michael Sheen, welsh actor and an all round lovely human being,

SarahTancredi · 20/10/2019 21:23

Well he did have to break me out of prison then disappear for 7 years first GrinWink

saltysally · 20/10/2019 21:45

Definitely Bob Mortimer!

JK Rowling

Federer is always so passive aggressive in defeat - blaming it on some injury, or the weather, or his outfit / racket, the court - rarely actually giving credit where credit is due - to his opponent.

Plus he's dull as ditchwater.

SinittasDancers · 20/10/2019 22:02

°David Attenborough?! I know MN worships him, but a lot of people who have worked with him loathe him - ill mannered, user, prima donna, do you know who I am etc

(I know a lot of cameramen and producers)•

I had to come on to say that this is the absolute opposite of what the people I know who have worked with him say. They work in TV and have worked with him many times, and with other celebrities as well, most of whom are entitled and unpleasant when not on public view. David is one of very few exceptions, charming, professional and kind.

For me, I'd love to know if anyone has met Lauren Laverne and can tell me if she's as nice as I think she is.
