Real Talk

(continued)

JUST LIKE YOU, BUT HOT AND MORMON Katherine Heigl (Photo: Getty Images)
Janice Dickinson: "Yes, she's a total bitch. But I don't think she's playing the part just for the cameras. There's an honesty to her that's very likable, even if she herself isn't."

Robert Downey, Jr.: "He's very 'this is who I am, take it or leave it.' You never see him doing bullshit publicity tours or interviews. His really doesn't seem to care what other people think or say about him."

Danny Glover: "There's something in his voice that makes me believe everything he says."

Katherine Heigl: "She has that charming 'real girl' quality that you can't fake. It's almost impossible not to like her, even in unlikable roles, like the character she played in Knocked Up."

Roger Federer: "You know inside he thinks he's better than everyone in every aspect of his life. And he's absolutely right in thinking that. Yet he's outwardly extraordinarily modest and very down-to-earth."

Ben Folds: "I saw him perform at Central Park once and he said, 'The only reason I exist is because kids with tons of disposable income are into my music.' Of course, I was like, 'Ouch. I'm just a kid with disposable income.' It take someone pretty sincere to insult his fans like that."

NOT FRONTING Michael J. Fox (Photo: Getty Images)
Michael J. Fox: "That rarest of child star who never quite let fame go to his head. I think Parkinson's has shown him to be a genuine person in that he doesn't seem to have changed personalities from before and after."

Jennifer Garner: "I don't think she's much of an actress, but she is so real in interviews. She seems like she's just really into her kids and her family and maintaining a low profile, and not really caught up in the Hollywood shuffle."

Paul Giamatti: "He's in that Philip Seymour Hoffman vein where his lack of attractiveness automatically validates him as 'real.' He's gotten as far as he has because he's talented, not because he looks good. And that makes him seem like the genuine article."

Ryan Gosling: "Even in schmaltzy fare like The Notebook, he has a realness that really shines through. Usually, it's hard to take really attractive individuals at face value. But Gosling somehow pulls it off."
