Top 25 Celebrities No One Hates, According To The Internet
Celebrities tend to dominate the headlines, people can be obsessive about the lives and relationships of the rich and famous. It seems a lot of the mainstream celebrities feed the “bad news is still good” sort of mindset, as long as their name is in headlines or trending, they’re still relevant.

So, in a world of reality stars and delusional egomaniacs, the celebrities who DON’T participate in any of the typical Hollywood drama, and use their platforms to help support worthy causes and marginalized groups, have a special place in the hearts of non-famous folks. They’re good at what they do and turn around to give back what they can.
We love them for it, we literally cannot get enough of their wholesome goodness. These unproblematic stars are a breath of sweet, fresh air in the midst of L.A. smog.
In a recent AskReddit thread, users shared who they believed was “that one celebrity that has like no haters.” And in the typical Reddit fashion that we’ve grown to enjoy, users really delivered.
We selected 25 of the highest-rated suggestions. These include the likes of Cookie Monster from Sesame Street, the Internet’s favorite comedic old lady, Betty White (RIP).
Of course, being an open discussion, not everyone agreed with some suggestions. There were some controversial mentions that dug up some maybe not-so-well-known dirty laundry, like late Jeopardy! show host Alex Trebek.
Check out the list for yourself, see if you agree with the top 25 most likable celebrities.
1. Bob Ross

2. Danny DeVito
"Danny DeVito saved the life of a thirteen year old, who says (he’s an adult now) that he was suicidal from the abuse he was enduring at a boarding school. On a ski trip, he was on a lift and DeVito, who sat next to him, noticed something was wrong and offered support, referencing the abuse he also endured at a Catholic School. This guy says everyone ignored his cry for help, but DeVito saw a defeated teenager and was the first person to listen to him and believe him."

8. Danny Trejo
"Suprised I didn’t see this higher, he kinda is the whole rehabilitation package and actively gives back a lot. Won’t play villains that win, actively gives talks in prison and has tried to give Mexicans it’s very own super hero via machete."
![8. Danny Trejo](https://static.pupperish.com/images/ZcmfoNRxqHjX_13101.gif)
9. Mads Mikkelsen

14. Grant Imahara
"Man, I grew up watching him on Mythbusters. I remember being so happy to see him there, because he’s Asian, and when he started Mythbusters there weren’t a lot of Asians doing stuff that he does on screen. Gone too soon."

16. Julie Andrews
"I effing LOVE her story about how Walt Disney waited for her to give birth before filming Mary Poppins. Keep in mind at that stage Julie Andrews was nothing more than a mildly successful West End/Broadway actress. The fact that one of the biggest film producers at the time wanted her specifically to play Mary Poppins AND he was happy to wait until after her pregnancy is a true testament to her phenomenal acting and singing ability."

17. Andre the Giant
"I was fortunate enough to catch a screening of The Princess Bride in Nashville a couple of years ago; Cary Elwes (who plays the love interest) was there after the show and told some stories about working with different cast members. when he got to Andre, he recounted how he was the “mood maker” of the cast and always had a smile on his face. he even broke his foot during one of the last scenes but powered through it because the other actors had been filming all day and wanted to go home."

18. Dev Patel
"Seems like the most lovely of people and everyone that works with him sings his praises."

19. John Candy

![23. Jim Henson](https://static.pupperish.com/images/jdQHOFwGyDgh_13101.gif)
24. Robin Williams
"If I found out someone genuinely hated him as a person and it wasn’t just a “don’t care for his movies” situation (which still seems unheard of) I don’t think I’d be able to continue knowing that individual. That’s just a red flag"
![24. Robin Williams](https://static.pupperish.com/images/yGzJIUclBHCD_13101.gif)
25. Tom Hanks
"Tom Hanks comes to mind. I forget where I read it, probably on Reddit, but someone described him as the only person who drunkenly punch out a nun in an alley and the world would wonder, Damn, what was wrong with that nun?"
