Celebs you irrationally just love !

[JorgyPorgy]

Maybe they aren’t great at acting, maybe you love them for nostalgic reasons or because they seem like a great person IRL!

I complained in the other thread about people not understanding the difference between irrational and rational - liking a beloved character like David Attenborough is not considered controversial by any stretch, but liking Peter Andre, maybe 😉.

Alan Davies, I have been watching QI and he’s just so cute

Jennifer Aniston.
Stephen Graham.
Vicky mcclure.
Tom Hanks.

I used top have quite a yen for him

Charlie Dimmock!

Yes these three!!

Plus David Nicholls, the author of One Day etc.

I changed my opinion of Tom Cruuse a bit after listening to this…

I have a real soft spot for Donny Osmond. I can't even explain why.

Oh and Henning Wehn. I'm sure it's all an act but he comes across as incredibly earnest and likeable, even when joking about awful things.

David Tennant
Gordon Ramsey
Alison Hammond
Dermot O’Leary
Keanu Reeves

Emma Thompson. I know people think she’s a luvvie but I admire her and would watch her in anything.

Emma Willis. She seems so real and down to earth, caring and lovely.

Maya Jama

We love Henning in our house.
Anytime he's on the WILTY panel you know it's going to be a great show.

loving a positive thread!!

Reece Shearsmith was so funny in Car Share and the outtakes are bloody hilarious. He comes across like a right laugh!

James Norton. Nice guy vibes

Go! I've been to Dollywood and the best bit is the cabins you stay in. Ours had three floors with a hot tub on the balcony of the top floor. Heaven

Haven't quite got over her miming at Glastonbury though (Dolly).

Kenneth Brannagh comes across quite down to earth I think

Also Olly Alexander seems like a real.sweetie

Candida from Pulp. Adore her

It's context-specific but really love Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell in Long Lost Family- they are each so sensitive, kind and quiet at the important moments. They never make the show about themselves. I had no particular view about them before LLF, but I watch it now for their masterclass in empathy.

Jason Manford.. we go to see him every year... brilliant comedian.. but also down to earth.. does loads of things for people for free.. setting up padel and sports clubs... just meeting joe public for a game of padel if he's in their area.. going to the local pub where he's doing shows and joining in with the karaoke..
In lock down he picked up old people for free and took them to their appointments or took shopping to them
Plus l think he's bloody handsome! Going to see him again this Autumn.

Nicky was adopted himself so he truly understands what some of them are going through.

I really like the toned down, less crayzee version of Davina too. Wish she could be like that on all her shows.
