You hear alllll kinds of horror stories about celebs — which is why it's all the more refreshing to actually hear something nice. So when Reddit user Mr-Nobody-74asked, "Which celebrity is an actually nice person," I loved scrolling through people's positive experiences with celebs. Some of them made sense — obviously, Dolly Parton is a gem — but some were super surprising! Here are people's best celebrity encounter stories.
1."Paul Rudd — I ended being one of the last people in the line at the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo. They were literally turning lights off in the convention center. He stood up and said not to worry, that he was gonna meet all of us. When we got up to him he was great; he shook both my wife’s hand and then mine. He got very excited that he was autographing a CrapBag friends mug and he told me it was the best thing he signed all day. He wrote out a line from the episode and signed it. Then we asked if he would do us a favor, and he said, 'anything.' We asked him to do the air piano from one of the episodes for our other family members who had been waiting on us in the half-dark. He cracked a huge smile, stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and air piano-ed perfectly! We thanked him and he shook our hands again and thanked us for waiting. It was just awesome and he really was just amazingly nice."
2."I met Henry Winkler at a con. Instead of standing behind a table and signing without talking, he walked up and down the line talking to you before you even got to the table. At the table, he gave you a minute to pick which of the hundred or so pictures you wanted him to sign, which is when he worked the line. He pretty much ignored me and talked to my daughter the whole time. In line he got down and did a magic trick for her. When we took the picture he was hugging her. Then he turned her around and said, 'every once in a while you meet someone special and I am so glad I met you.' Scripted line, but damn if it didn't make me tear up. Then he asked if he could have a hug and she practically leapt into his arms. It will always be one of my favorite celebrity moments."
