re: Nicest/Worse People in Hollywood

From following The Rock on twitter, it seems like he is a genuinely good dude. I think out of all the people in Hollywood he is at the top of my list of people I would like to meet and have a beer with.

Saw her in a cat litter commercial over the weekend...oh, the irony.

I've met Leno a couple times in different settings and he was an unbelievably nice guy.
This. My best friend in college had to pick Leno up from MSY for a gig at SLU years back. Said Leno was incredibly nice. He asked if they could go through a McDonald's drive thru 'cause he was hungry. Bought everyone in the car food. Cracked jokes the whole time, and was interested in what everyone was doing in school.
Put on a great show that night, even though it rained like a bitch and only about 100 people showed up.

If Dwayne Johnson is actually a dick in real life, then he is the greatest living actor on planet earth. Every thing I've read about the guy, social media, etc...he seems like a genuinely good human being and a good role model, who wants to use his platform to positively impact others.

Am i correct to assume that when watching the movie that he's IRL drunk (or at least somewhat buzzed) in all his scenes?

I saw Jerry Seinfeld the next day. We made eye contact as he was getting into his limo. He stopped and did a double take.
I don't get this part, was there any reason he did a double take when he saw you?

Johnny Depp
He and Amber Heard showed up in Talladega in either November or December. They are scouting locations for a TV show based on Muscle Shoals that he is a co-producer of, and Dega has a downtown with no modern store fronts. One of the few left in Alabama.
I know a few people who work at the camp ground he and the production crew stayed at. One of of whom is a close family member. They all said he was incredibly gracious and nice, if a bit...odd at times.

Supposedly he is a huge introvert, which is why he always plays over the top characters

My cousin worked at Adult Swim for a few years, and Seth Green would drop in every now and then. He said he was a super cool and hilarious dude, and he's even shorter than he looks on TV.
My mom sat next to Sting (the singer) on a long flight once. She said he was super nice.

No clue. I still wonder that to this day. I felt like it was this moment where we were both in an actual episode of Seinfeld. We look at each other in an odd way, have some crazy internal thought, the classic Seinfeld bass riff plays, and the scene cuts out to something George is doing.

My aunt met sting at an airport and talked to him for a long while. She had NO IDEA who he was. After he left where they were sitting a small crowd of fans approached her and asked her about the conversation. She was like "he was super nice, what's the big deal, who was that?"
The fans were like "that was STING!"
She said "....ok. Well, he is really nice"

Heard some amazing piano out in NO. Realized it was Harry Connick Jr. We gave him a little light applause when he finished. He came and sat down at our table and shot the shite with us for a while. Then he paid our bill when he left. One of the nicest guys I ever met.

Non Hollywood celebrities I've met are The Logo (Jerry West), Randy Orton, Sheamus, Ted DiBiase, and Mark Lowry the Christian comedian.
West was a bit of an a-hole, but all 3 wrestlers were super nice guys. Sheamus shot the shite with me and a few others for like 15 minutes.
Lowry was a bit of a jerk when it was just me and another guy driving him from the airport. He was nice to everyone else he met in a more public setting though. I'm also roughly 95% sure he has a little sugar in his tank after meeting him.
Orton was on the same flight as me from Dallas to OKC in 05. Super chill guy. I was behind him in line, just said hello and then apologized for bothering him. His answer? "Oh fans don't bother me, these things do." As he pointed at the plane. His calves freaked me out, they were WAY too skinny for an athlete that size. He was a leg day, never day kinda workout man apparently.
Side note about Sheamus, if he weighed a lb over 235 I'll eat my shoe. His in ring weight is listed at like 280 or something like that...yeah, not even close.
A close friend of mine met Colin Farrell when he served him at a movie theater in Hampton, VA. Said he was a pretty nice guy, had a woman under each arm, and was fairly drunk. He was in town shooting The New World up the road in Jamestown. I would have been drunk too if I had been shooting that horrid film.

Reminds me of my mom. We saw Allen Iverson at the mall in Hampton, VA sometime in 04. When I told her who he was, she walked up to give him my dad's card(he is a pastor), and told him if he ever needed a safe place or someone to talk to that he could call. Said she knew that living a public life could get very stressfull.
Only problem was....she walked up and called him "Mr Alvin" when she was introducing herself.
Edit: He was a pretty nice guy about it for the record. Just took the card and told her thank you.
Charles Barkley is also a super nice guy.

I've met/worked with hundreds of pro wrestlers over the years (used to work in the business). The coolest were Diamond Dallas Page and Mick Foley. Most of them were real cocksuckers, lowest of the low on the human quality scale. The Rockers (Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty) were the absolute worst, along with Dynamite Kid.

not hollywood, but i met bush 43 when he was done with the rangers and was running for governor. he was campaigning in my town and came to the republican headquarters.
my dad's a raging repub and we went. he sat town and talked to me (the only poor kid drug along) for 20 minutes while all the adults were adulting about the rangers and what guys he liked in the organization. was a really really cool moment for me growing up, because i loved the rangers.
also i live somewhat close to crawford and have a few friends on his SS detail when he's in town. they all say he is the nicest and most friendly guy they know. their biggest complaint is when he's bike riding out there, he doesn't slow down when they're having to carry SMGs.
others:
Skillet is cool as heck. all kind, nice people.
all of MercyMe are dicks. i roll my eyes every time that "i can only imagine comes" on.
Chris Tomlin isn't a jerk, but he's not an overly nice fellow.
McConagay is a strange fellow, but nice.
Pratt's an awesome dude.
