Is there a celebrity who makes you feel happy?

Not like sexually or anything, just happy when you're sad. In both my pregnancies I've had some mad secret obsession with George Michael. He's just so nice to look at and listen to. Yet as soon as I gave birth, the obsession ended.

I think monty Don would be a very considerate lover.

In tricky situations, I always think what would Matt baker do? And do that

Nonmaquillee · 04/04/2021 08:28

None. The word "celebrity" sets my teeth on edge.

Colinthedog · 04/04/2021 08:29

Adam Buxton. Have loved him since the 90s and his podcast has helped me through the last year. He’s warm, funny, relatable and just generally seems like a lovely person.

Jeff Goldblum!

Rylan Neal Clarke
Dolly Parton
Michelle Obama

Tinpotdictator · 04/04/2021 08:35

There is something about Rylan isn’t there. His voice. His personality. Just makes me think everything is gonna be ok

Monty Don, definitely, Gardener's World was my happy place during first lockdown. See also Bob Ross and Nigel Slater!
I'd like to have dinner with John Finnemore, Joanna Lumley and Nadia Hussain.

Forgot Sophie Ellis Bextor.
I loved her Lockdown Friday Night disco

Sparklingbrook · 04/04/2021 08:39

I don't know if anyone else watches but Toyah Wilcox and her husband Robert Fripp on YouTube. They are hilarious-completely batshit, but hilarious.

Jeff Goldblum!
Yay! I was hoping someone else would say him- he tinkles my ivories too! 'Jazz 👐' 😋

I wonder why, on a thread about people who make you happy, several people still have to describe who they don't like and why.

Or that they don't have one because the word sets their teeth on edge? Confused

I saw some pictures of Rob Lowe on the beach in the Daily Mail today and that made me very happy. Grin

It's like they can't cope with positivity or something, a nice thread doing no harm and they just want to stir!

Quirrelsotherface · 04/04/2021 09:11

Paul O'Grady on radio 2 on a Sunday

Fun sponges 🧽....
OverByYer · 04/04/2021 09:17

Fun sponges indeed. Sadly there are some people in life who can’t find something nice to say about anyone.

Long dead now but Larry Grayson always made me smile.

Iwasonceabrownie · 04/04/2021 09:17

Julie Walters, I think she's great.

longwayoff · 04/04/2021 09:34

The Kemp family, Martin, Shirley and Rowan. Relentlessly nice and good humoured it seems. Good luck to them.

MyNameForToday1980 · 04/04/2021 09:35

I agree with several here:

Claudia Winkleman - I empathize HARD with her, it's like she's a real life kook (not one of those fake kooky personas).

Robert Rinder - he just has a gorgeous wry joy about him.

Bob Mortimer - a gentle soul.

AnyFucker · 04/04/2021 10:04

I have just been reminded of another one : Jasmine Harman

Violetparis · 04/04/2021 10:14

Kathy Burke
Michael Palin
Rylan
Gogglebox - Jenny & Lee, the Siddiqui family and Pete & Sophie

Weirdfan · 04/04/2021 10:24

Tom Jones, don't really know why but I just love him.
