The Top Ten
1 Tom Hanks Thomas Jeffrey "Tom" Hanks (born July 9, 1956) is an American actor and filmmaker. He is known for his roles in Splash, Big, Turner & Hooch, Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, Apollo 13, Saving Private Ryan, You've Got Mail, The Green Mile, the Toy Story Franchise, Cast Away, The Da Vinci Code, Captain Phillips, and Saving Mr. Banks.

Everywhere I go on the internet, I see his face. He has a massive fanbase, and he's definitely deserving of it.

He is such a versatile actor. Impressive.

I'd love to meet him one day. So much talent.

2 Shahrukh Khan Shah Rukh Khan, also known as SRK, is an Indian film actor, producer, and television personality. Referred to in the media as the "Badshah of Bollywood", "King of Bollywood", "King Khan", he has appeared in more than 80 Bollywood films, and earned numerous accolades, including 14 Filmfare Awards.

This man is surely the biggest movie star. He is the king who can do everything. He is a great actor, a popular star, a generous charity giver, a skilled sportsman, and a wonderful family man. With a double century of awards and a century of nominations, he is the epitome of style and hard work. His dedication, despite 20+ injuries, is simply breathtaking. There is nothing he hasn't achieved. What's even more admirable is that he came from humble beginnings with no film background. His competitors have come and gone, but he has remained constant and consistent. He started from "zero" and reached the top. He is the one and only Shah Rukh Khan.

We, as fans, wish only the best for you. You deserve to receive all the love, respect, and success in the world. We believe in you because you believe in us. You deserve to be at the pinnacle of glory. You deserve to remain the uncrowned, reigning king of Bollywood. You deserve every joy in the world. All of your films deserve to touch the 1000-week margin at the box office. You are the King of our Hearts.

Your fans cannot thank you enough for the impact you have on us. Yes, Shah Rukh, we understand that life may not be a bed of roses, but at the end of it, everything turns out perfect. We hope that your inspiring interviews, your beautiful films, and your witty - and sometimes dirty - jokes continue forever. We keep falling in love with you every moment.

On behalf of all the SRKians, let me reiterate this once again: "One Life. One Love. Team SRK."

3 Michael Jackson Michael Jackson (Michael Joseph Jackson; August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American singer, dancer, and songwriter. He passed away from cardiac arrest caused by a propofol and benzodiazepine overdose on June 25, 2009. He donated (at least) a remarkable 500,000,000 dollars to charity. Michael is also known as The King of Pop (a title given to him by Elizabeth Taylor) or under the initials MJ... read more

Michael Jackson was the biggest celebrity I've known all my life who has walked this planet. I know that there might be other good entertainers, but Michael Jackson was better than all of them, even better than Elvis Presley. I think that everyone on this planet should take a break from what they're doing to appreciate what this King of Pop has done for us, from young to old.

Many people don't fully appreciate him despite his immense talent, good looks, and contributions to changing our world. I believe that people, including the media and press, treated him poorly because he was getting all the attention, and they tried to tear him apart, but it wasn't going to happen.

We should all be thankful that God has brought him into our world and allowed us to imitate him. Seeing some people imitate him and become impersonators is the best way to keep his legacy going and spread his joy throughout the planet.

4 Selena Gomez Selena Marie Gomez is an American actress and singer. She is best known for songs like "Come & Get It", "Good For You", "Same Old Love", and "It Ain't Me". Selena Gomez's voice is mezzo-soprano but she usually sings in alto. She is best known for her role as Alex Russo in Wizards of Waverly Place.

I don't think she sings too well without auto-tune, but she does seem very nice and caring. I think her songwriting style is very average, but she makes catchy tunes. If people don't like her because of her voice, I can understand why they would like her for her personality instead.

I absolutely love Selena. She is my role model, and I've been obsessed with her ever since I was little. I think she is incredibly talented and has been through a lot to get to where she is now. I have loved watching her grow up and become a woman. She has learned so much over the years, and I think she is one of the most amazing people ever. I absolutely believe that she deserves to be on this list. I love her with all my heart. ❤️

She is beautiful. She is a person who lights up the world. She inspires me every day, especially when she said, "If you are broken, you don't have to stay broken." Ever since I heard that speech, I've never given up. Thank you, Selena!

5 Beyoncé Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter, is an American singer and actress, who started out in the popular pop/r&b girl group Destiny's Child. They had multiple top 5 hits such as "No, No, No", "Say My Name", "Bills, Bills, Bills", "Survivor", "Independent Women", "Bootylicious", and "Jumpin', Jumpin" from 1999 to 2004. After they broke up in 2006, Beyonce pursued her solo career, creating smash hits such... read more

This woman right here is the best female artist. Yeah, there are Katy and Taylor, but she can beat them anyway. This Single Ladies singer should be at the top of the charts.

Beyoncé is real, and she worked hard to be good. Her voice is powerful, and she deserves to be at the top.

Come on, everybody likes Beyoncé. A bunch of people ranked above her are controversial and unlikable. As for Miley Cyrus, her producer is lame. I don't know who he or she is, but her voice is totally messed up. You can tell that it isn't her real voice. They just change it to make it sound different.

6 Lady Gaga Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, known professionally as Lady Gaga, is an American singer, songwriter, and actress.

On the start of her career, she performed at an event called the Lollapalooza Festival during 2007 whereby a record label company Interscope found her due to her performance being “amusing” to watch. Since Interscope found her, she was a mastermind behind her songs with... read more

1. As of March 2011, she has 31,110,369 likes on Facebook and is hailed as the most-liked celebrity on Facebook, defeating Michael Jackson with only 30,530,707 likes.
2. She is the number 1 Twitterholic based on followers, and she has 8,953,225 followers. Next to her is Justin Bieber with 8,328,290 followers.
3. Her song Born This Way became number 1 in the top 100 music hits!

I love her, from singing to American Horror Story, fashion to being a strong woman. She's a positive role model and creates a path instead of following one. I love that about her!

She is the most powerful woman in the world! Way more talented than Eminem and Carrie Underwood. She should most definitely be placed 1st. Duh!

7 Jennifer Lawrence Jennifer Shrader Lawrence is an American actress. Lawrence began her career in television, playing her first major role as a main cast member on the TBS sitcom The Bill Engvall Show.

Jennifer is the best celebrity ever. She's just so down-to-earth, an amazing actress, and well, she's just so lovable. Everyone can relate to her, and her personality is pure gold. I love her so much, and she is mine and many people's idol.

She was incredible in all of her movies and really brings her characters to life. She definitely deserved Best Actress, and I think she could deserve a million more. She should definitely be number one on this list!

I haven't really loved any other actress as much as I love Jen. Jennifer is the best. Her beauty, her style, her personality, and moreover, Katniss Everdeen - she nailed it. And how can we forget her love for food, especially pizza?

Seriously, she's really one heck of a woman. I just adore her friendship with Josh. She accepts herself, knows her flaws, and isn't afraid to show who she really is. I literally love this woman so much.

8 Britney Spears Britney Jean Spears, born on December 2, 1981, is an American former singer and actress. She was born in McComb, Mississippi, and raised in Kentwood, Louisiana. As a child, she performed acting roles in stage productions and television shows, such as "The Mickey Mouse Club," before signing with Jive Records in 1997... read more

I really love and admire Britney Jean Spears so much! I am a huge fan of Britney Spears, and I really appreciate her amazing songs and her wonderful singing voice. My top favorite songs from her include: From the Bottom of My Broken Heart, Sometimes, Oops! I Did It Again, Lucky, 3, Toxic, Womanizer, Email My Heart, Boys, Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know, What U See (Is What U Get), Born to Make You Happy, and I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman.

Whether you like her or not - and there aren't many reasons these days not to - Britney Spears has been an extremely public figure for nearly two decades. She's known worldwide. While she doesn't sell as many number-one hits as newer artists, she is more well-known and identifiable than they are.

So you think Christina Aguilera is more popular than Britney? Oh, come on, give me a break. It's not about talent. It's about popularity. Let's be objective.

9 K.S. Chithra Krishnan Nair Shantakumari Chithra, often credited as K. S. Chithra or simply Chithra, is an Indian playback singer from Kerala. Chithra also sings Indian classical, devotional, and popular music.

She's such a music icon with powerful vocals and a good personality. She is gorgeous, beautiful, and very fashionable. Everywhere she goes, people are amazed by her aura and her beautiful, mesmerizing voice. She is very friendly to people, including fans, and always gives her best when singing. She is an A-class singer.

Instead of criticizing someone you don't know, why not listen to her music and see if you can broaden your appreciation? This lady has a voice without comparison. She sings in several languages and, by the way, is very popular in Europe, the Arab world, and Asia. It's in the US that she is underappreciated because most people are primarily into pop music.

K. S. Chithra is a person who lights up the world. She is amazingly beautiful and talented. She has a lot of respect and care for others. She also has many religious values. She's the best.

10 Barun Sobti Barun Sobti is an Indian actor. He is most famous for his role "Arnav Singh Raizada" for the show "Iss pyaar ko kya naam doon". This character won millions of hearts.

Evancho's latest album 'The Debut', was her eighth consecutive release to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart... read more

Instead of criticizing someone you don't know, why not listen to her music and see if you can broaden your appreciation? This young lady has a voice without comparison. She sings in several languages and is very popular in Europe and Asia. It's in the US that she is underappreciated because most people are either into pop or country western.

A friend - a concert "snob" who has attended hundreds of shows in NYC and New Haven - attended Jackie's Providence concert with me. After the concert, he said that he had never before experienced such deep mutual affection between performer and audience as he had that night. He was very moved, as was I.

At 16, she has had immense talent since she was 10! She has a heart of gold, a Jiminy Cricket conscience, and unmatched beauty inside and out. She is as unaffected as the sweetest girl next door. You've got to love her!

12 Adam Levine Adam Noah Levine is an American singer and songwriter. He is the lead vocalist for the Los Angeles pop rock band Maroon 5. ...read more.

May the Lord bless this hot man! Oh, God bless! I am going crazy! Love you, Adam - most especially on The Voice! Oh, may the Lord God bless! Xoxoxoxoxo.

He is the best singer ever! Sweet like sugar!

13 Dwayne Johnson Dwayne Douglas Johnson, also known by his ring name The Rock, is an American and Canadian actor, producer and semi-retired professional wrestler, signed with WWE.

14 Eminem Eminem, born Marshall Bruce Mathers III, is an American rapper, actor and music producer born on October 17, 1972 in St. Joseph, Missouri. Eminem has sold over 300 million records making him the bestselling hip-hop artist of all time. In addition to his solo career, he is a member of D12 and (with Royce da 5'9") half of the hip-hop duo Bad Meets Evil... read more

Eminem should be the first. He has a huge fandom, and his songs are the definition of true music. No other artist can compete with the depth and meaning he portrays through his songs. Additionally, he's won an Academy Award for the best song ever, Lose Yourself. Although acting isn't his profession, he did a terrific role in 8 Mile.

Coming to his personal life, he's gone through the worst and yet rose to success because of his passion, talent, and hard work. He has contributed towards Detroit, showing his love for his city. We aren't just fans. It takes a lot to achieve such a huge fan following. He has touched our hearts and souls with his songs, given us hope, and motivated us to be the best versions of ourselves. Eminem is life.

He is incredibly talented and a great songwriter. He's not fake. He's real. Some people like to compare him with Justin Bieber, but that's like comparing the Beatles with One Direction. Honestly, he should be number one with 90 million followers on Facebook.

15 Abraham Lincoln Abraham Lincoln (February 12, 1809 – April 15, 1865) was an American lawyer and statesman who served as the 16th president of the United States from 1861 until his assassination in 1865.

16 Taylor Swift Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She was born on December 13, 1989, in Reading, Pennsylvania. Swift is best known for writing personal songs and has won 11 Grammy Awards.

She developed an interest in country music when she was around nine years old. After watching a documentary about Faith Hill, Swift felt inspired to go to Nashville to begin a country music career. Subsequently,... read more

She is overhated and underrated. How is Selena Gomez 4 and our girl Taylor 16? I have nothing against anyone on this list. In fact, I love them all and think they're all amazing, but the fact that Swift isn't 1? Bro, that's messed up.

She is so talented, pretty, and creative. If you ask me, people are jealous that she's better than any of their fave singers and stuff. Anyway, GO TAYLOR!

Taylor Swift IS the music industry. Making her first album when she was 16, she has won ten Grammys, released nine critically acclaimed albums, and is one of the youngest people to have won Album of the Year (the second youngest, next to Billie Eilish). She also has had the most successful tour of all time. Her lyrics, especially on her newer albums, are wonderful, and she has a nice alto voice. Personally, my two favorite albums by her are Folklore and Speak Now, so if you haven't listened to a lot of her music, I would recommend starting there.

17 Kanye West Ye (born Kanye Omari West; June 8, 1977) is an American rapper, songwriter, record producer and fashion designer. He is regarded as one of the most influential, as well as controversial, artists of the 21st century. ...read more.

She is best known with her international hit singles like Rolling in the Deep, Someone Like You, Hello, Easy On Me and the success of... read more

After watching how quickly the tickets sold for her Minneapolis show, I think she's better than being the 91st favorite celebrity.

Amazing voice. Should be in the top 20.

19 Barack Obama Barack Hussein Obama II (born August 4, 1961) is an American politician who served as the 44th president of the United States from 2009 to 2017. He was the first African-American president of the United States. A member of the Democratic Party, he previously served as a U.S. senator from Illinois from 2005 to 2008 and as an Illinois state senator from 1997 to 2004.

Everyone who said Obama is stupid is wrong. If Obama were stupid, he wouldn't be president. Some of his actions may be stupid, but that doesn't make him stupid. He achieved a lot and tackled many challenges, but he still succeeded. We proved that we are still a people capable of doing big things and tackling our biggest challenges. - Barack Obama

Apparently so, since he was named the most admired man in America for 2015.

20 Rihanna Robyn Rihanna Fenty is a Barbadian-American pop singer. Born in Saint Michael and raised in Bridgetown, she first entered the music industry by recording demo tapes under the direction of record producer Evan Rogers in 2003. She ultimately signed a recording contract with Def Jam Recordings after auditioning for its then-president, hip-hop producer and rapper Jay Z.

She is the greatest singer of all time, right next to My Chemical Romance. They are so passionate about what they do, and their music excites me and gives me energy. She's beautiful and has a great voice. Her music is truly amazing, and she is a good influence on young women. She is true to herself and always supports other women. She also went through a rough time, especially with Chris Brown hurting her.

Her interview with Oprah shows how emotionally intelligent she is. She really loves her fans and knows how to have fun.

She is a great singer of this generation.

21 Elvis Presley Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American singer and actor. Dubbed the "King of Rock and Roll", he is regarded as one of the most significant cultural icons of the 20th century. His energized interpretations of songs and sexually provocative performance style, combined with a singularly potent mix of influences across color lines during a transformative era in race... read more

My #1 is Elvis, Elvis, Elvis!

He is still a record-breaking music icon, 42 years after his death. He was the King of Rock and Roll and the Artist of the Century. As much as I loved his great voice, his heart-stopping good looks, and the energy in his performances, what I love most of all is his kind and generous heart.

It is reported that Elvis used to say, "What good is fame or fortune if you can't share it with your friends?" He gave so much to his friends, family, charities, strangers, and fans. That is someone with love in their heart. So, I have nothing but respect and honor for Elvis the man.

Few facts:

He was the largest single contributor to the Pearl Harbor Monument.

Ed Sullivan introduced a song, describing Presley's plea for people to donate to the charitable cause of Hungarian refugee relief. In a subtle attempt to explain Presley's choice to sing a gospel song, Sullivan said Elvis was going to "sing a song he feels that this is sort of in the mood that he'd like to create." He sang "Peace in the Valley."

Elvis bought Roosevelt's yacht and donated it to support St. Jude's Hospital.

Thank you, Elvis! I will be your fan until my last breath.

22 Chris Pratt Christopher Michael "Chris" Pratt is an American actor. He came to prominence from his television roles, including Bright Abbott in Everwood and Andy Dwyer in the NBC sitcom Parks and Recreation.

He is the best actor ever! I'm in love with him.

He is amazing in Guardians of the Galaxy, Passengers, Jurassic World, Parks and Recreation, etc.

Will you marry me?

He is awesome, unlike that hack Jennifer Lawrence!

23 Justin Bieber Justin Drew Bieber (born March 1, 1994) is a Canadian singer, songwriter, and record producer. He currently resides in Ontario, Canada and is Christian. He is the son of author Pattie Mallette.

Justin Bieber is best known for his songs "Baby" and "What Do You Mean". He currently has seven videos that exceed 1 billion views on YouTube, which are "Baby", "What Do You Mean?", "Sorry", "Love Yourself",... read more

So many people are hating on him and other celebrities, but he still stays strong. Every person in this world makes mistakes, including him, because he is also human, right? So haters, you don't have the right to hate him. If someone has done something wrong to you, then you have the right to hate them, but he hasn't done anything wrong. He is a good person. He makes better music than other artists in this world. He is a legend of all time. Beliebers always love him. He is a superstar. And please stop calling him gay. There are many celebrities in the world who may look like that, but I don't think he looks like that. Haters are trying to diminish his fame, so guys, please don't hate him. He is the best.

He has saved more lives than you, so you have no right to judge. His music inspires people and has helped them get through difficult times. Haters need to get a life because someone you know might not be in your life today if it weren't for him. Not to mention that he is so incredibly gifted in every way imaginable. Listen to his music. It speaks.

24 Olivia Holt Olivia Hastings Holt is an American actress and singer who starred in the Disney Channel Original Series I Didn't Do It.

Olivia Holt is awesome! She deserves to be #1!

25 Johnny Depp John Christopher "Johnny" Depp II (born June 9, 1963) is an American actor, producer, and musician. He has won the Golden Globe Award and Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actor. His role in a movie is often rather big. His character is often on the "loopy side" and his character being in a darker state of mind, etc.

Without a doubt, the most loved and most respected. One of the most beautiful people ever, both inside and out. Johnny Depp is the real deal. Much love, xoxo.

The comments on almost every vote list are annoying and unrealistic. But Johnny deserves a spot in the top ten.

Johnny Depp is amazing! He is the epitome of cool!
