#1 Rick Moranis

he is my entire childhood. He left acting to raise his kids when his wife sadly passed. Good to hear he's working on some projects and we see him again soon. (automatorsassemble)Insane when he popped up in the news for getting sucker punched by that one dude. But yeah, I’m excited to see what he’s got going on now. (sirdippingsauce45)
#2 Fred Rogers

In the same vein, Mr. Dressup. Nothing but wonderful things to say about either of these great people. I was on an overnight field trip when Mr. Dressup died and my mom, myself, and many students, teachers, and volunteers cried over him. (parksandrecpup)As a rule, I don't trust anyone who tries to give off an overtly nice persona, because usually, it's a front for toxic people. Almost nobody is that good. But Fred Rogers was something special. (SatanMeekAndMild)
#3 Dolly Parton

I've just listened to a podcast where they interview her. Dollywood employees now get their education paid by her. That woman is unstoppable with her kindness. (ProfessionalFront473)I'm glad she's one of those celebrities that's used her wealth to try to make the world a better place. (TrueDeadBling)
I’ll never forget about Dolly’s imagination library! They send you free books from birth till you go to school. One of the best childhood memories I had was getting them in the mail all wrapped up, and living just a drive from Dollywood too! She was such a big part of my life growing up and meeting her in person multiple times was the best, she’s so genuine and sweet. (pookimane)
#4 Bob Odenkirk

Bob Odenkirk is responsible for adult swim the way it’s built today. Without him no Tim and Eric. No Robot Chicken. No Oblongs. (taylorpilot)His performances on Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul were phenomenal. (IAmNotRappaport)
#5 Alan Rickman

He was going through the final Movies while battling his cancer. Poor guy… no one could’ve done a better Snape than him. (Significant_Way2194)It seems like a great guy with amazing talent and no scandals. (dianagama)
One of my favorite things about him is he asks before making a parody despite not needing to as parodies are protected by the first amendment. (ForgottenForce)
#6 David Tennant

He’s a brilliant actor and he seems like such a humble, down-to-earth guy. I’ve never heard of any scandals and I don’t know of anyone who’s had a bad word to say about him. (ThatScotchbloke)My friend worked with him on Dr. Who years ago. He was just an extra on a few episodes, has nothing but great things to say about him. (Ill_Royal9688)
David Tennant deserves all that he has. He is a phenomenal actor and from what I hear and see, is a great family man. I don't know if it's true, but I read that he works so much because he's afraid he won't get another acting job so he works as hard as he can. Despite all of the accolades and awards, he's still humble enough to worry about being good enough to get another acting job. I just adore that man and pray he never changes (OutsideEmotion)
#7 Tracy Chapman

One of the greatest songs ever written and performed. Encapsulates millions of people’s lives in a heartbreaking 4 minutes. (WaluigiIsTheRealHero)#8 Hugh Jackman

The video of him recognizing the cameraman on the red carpet always brings a smile to my face. (stabliu)
Hugh J has an amazing talent for acting and singing. He has a range of roles he’s played from serious, funny, rage, and loving. He has stayed clean as far as I can tell and has stayed married to the same woman despite her not being famous. And of course, he’s ripped and has an awesome accent. (Beautiful-Appeal2688)
#9 Sean Bean

Watch his BBC series; Time. Some of the best acting I’ve ever seen also stars Stephen Graham; another exceptional actor. (SonnyRose94)
#10 Brendan Fraser

Brendan Fraser deserves all the love, all the success, and all the Lego the universe can muster. (thecatistheboss)
I always loved Brendan Fraser and when I found out what he'd been through, I was heartbroken for him. (Overquoted)
#11 Bryan Cranston

I saw an interview with him once and honestly you never know how people truly are, but he said something about a friend getting a part that he wanted (or a friend was having success and he wasn't), and he found that the right attitude was to be just supportive of your friend's success and that it just wasn't the right part at the right time and eventually the right part finds you. He may not have meant it in the way he meant it, but I always thought that was very classy. I've gotten some breaks and had some near misses, but I know that always being jealous of someone else's success just causes ulcers. (boomboomroom)
#12 Chadwick Boseman

Every time I think of him I can't help but feel terrible for the guy. All this suffering going on behind the scenes and none of us knew until the last second. I admire the hell out of the strength it must've taken to live his life, though. (nightfuryfan)#13 Tony Hawk
Source: Wikipedia
The man with the most desirable curse in all of history. To be loved by all, but recognized by none. (Raetekusu)The HBO documentary on him is really good. (BriSnyScienceGuy)
#14 Keanu Reeves

It seems to me, that Keanu is good at acting as if you placed Keanu in that actual situation and it's probably how he would be. (don_one)#15 Jack Black

How he didn't get an Oscar for his portrayal of a 14-year-old girl in a middle-aged man's body in Jumanji I will never know. Also, I love how his mother is a crucial engineer for NASA and pulled off great achievements. (Aggressive-Falcon977)
He has so much talent it just bursts out of him all the time. His music is awesome and he's just a funny person to be around. (Amegami)
