24 Famous People Who Are Truly Beloved By Everyone And Can Absolutely Do No Wrong
Keanu Reeves is too good for this world.
We asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us which famous people are truly beloved by everyone. Here's what they had to say.
1. Dolly Parton
"Dolly freaking Parton! I don’t have enough characters to say all she has done to help others (vaccines, literacy, relief from wild fires in Tennessee, etc.). Not to mention that voice, those songs, wigs, and the most fun personality in the world!" —calebw4f1d98965
2. Keanu Reeves
"KEANU FREAKING REEVES. He's never done anything just because his image would be made better by it. Every incident you hear about Keanu is sweet and kind — also, I don't think it matters a lot, but the fact that Keanu dates someone his own age who he seems to be really in love with is quite refreshing to see in Hollywood." —s4bb472acb
3. Lin-Manuel Miranda
"Definitely Lin-Manuel Miranda — ever since Hamilton was released on Disney+, I got slightly obsessed with it for a month. I got into so many fan pages on Instagram and watched so many cast videos on YouTube, and all I can judge from them is that Lin-Manuel Miranda is a gem of a person. It seems like he always has a friendly relationship with everyone on his projects, he's immensely talented and yet has no ego, and he really cares about his fans, often replying to them and listening to their concerns. I also love how he geeks out over his wife — he's just an overall amazing celebrity." —s4bb472acb
4. Betty White
"If you don’t say Betty White, are you even human?" —crystaljonesb
5. Viola Davis
"Everyone agrees that she is a terrific actor, and she also seems genuinely nice and friendly and always has such a good relationship with her costars. She's also a great activist, and genuinely cares about the causes she supports — she's not just doing it because it's good PR." —s4bb472acb
6. Steve Irwin
"I was part of a generation who grew up with him teaching us about the world and how to love all living things. He was the first celebrity I ever mourned, and I still feel sad that my children won't grow up with him. His family has done a great job of preserving and expanding his legacy." —the-honest-truth
7. Chadwick Boseman
"Without a doubt, Chadwick Boseman — may he rest in peace." —snfldn4567

10. Rihanna
Not for much longer...me nor my people would ever be at or around one of those tragic rallies, so thanks for the heads up philip! https://t.co/dRgRi06GrJ
"Rihanna seems like such a good human — she's brilliant, hilarious, and is never afraid to speak her mind. I feel like more celebrities should follow Riri's example!" —kaylayandoli
11. Carrie Fisher
"Carrie Fisher was such a badass who didn't take shit from anyone, and wasn't afraid to speak her mind and call out others. I remember sitting in the break room when the news came on about her death and struggled to hold back tears — her Twitter account was gold, as she was super funny." —monikap6
12. Dwayne Johnson
"The Rock, unquestionably. I’ve been waiting for years to hear something unwholesome about him, and I’m starting to accept that he may in fact be as spiritually perfect as he is physically perfect." —erical47bf7f8cc

"I feel like Octavia Spencer is just a super sweet human — I always want to hug her after watching her interviews and movies." —fannyfolye
17. Alex Trebek
No host likes shooting promos, especially for a phone version of their hit game show, but Trebek did them with good humor. So long, Alex, and fuck 'em.
"Alex Trebek — he was intelligent, kind, generous, an environmentalist, a gentleman, honest, and hilarious. I was devastated when he passed away in 2020." —censusprincess
18. Jennifer Garner
"Jennifer Garner — I used to work at Disneyland and she smiled at me once, and I felt like I was suddenly in an early 2000s rom-com. She just EXUDES warmth." —elisabethr49f276fa9
19. Billy Porter
Billy Porter has a good heart, and isn't afraid to talk about issues everyone else is normally uncomfortable with — he makes the world (and the red carpet) a brighter place, and uses his platform to spark important conversations and to promote kindness.
