Top 10 Celebrities Who Are Probably Cool In Real Life

Feel free to weigh in and add your own... especially if you can correct (or add) based on personal experience...

10. Neil Young-- because of-- or in spite of-- the fact that he is obsessed with model trains

9. Heidi Klum-- showing us her ass bruise yesterday is what got us thinking about this list in the first place

8. Anthony Bourdain-- the only man who works in a kitchen that we probably couldn't take in a fight... but he wouldn't start one with us... because he's cool like that

7. Simon Cowell-- once he steps out of character, he might be a pretty good wingman... same with Ryan Seacrest (just kidding!)

6. Elvis Costello-- if you've seen him in concert recently, you know he still has the same energy and kickass attitude that seemed so fresh in 1976

5. Bill Clinton-- unless, of course, you have a busty blond with you, hanging out with Bill Clinton is rumored to be a great time, where dirty jokes are always welcome... as long as they don't involve "interns"

4. David Bowie-- then again, David Bowie could sneer at us and it would kind of awesome

3. Wanda Sykes-- now here's somebody who you actually wouldn't mind it if she were "on" all the damn time

2. The dudes from Flight of the Conchords

1. Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert (tie)-- this we know from reliably sources... and, because, if they weren't cool in real life, it would break out poor widdle liberal hearts...

Also, a good way to tell if a celebrity might be an all right person in real life is to scan through this page of stories from waiters all over the country. They weight on whether a celebrity was a great tipper (Bill Murray, Joe Pesci, Stevie Nicks) or one who ordered "many bottles of wine" and still stiffed the help (Don Henley, big surprise.)

Tom Jones stole Elvira's virginity! After a nude revue performance in Vegas (this story is too obvious to be true), the future Mistress of the Dark met her idol, Mr. Pussycat himself, who returned the compliment in the sack.

A man who got drunk for eight hours with his pregnant wife is in jail today on assault and domestic violence charges. The pregnant woman who participated in the binge and is dating this suave winner? She won't be charged at all, not even for child endangerment.

Amy Winehouse was involved in another barroom fist rampage. Yeah, another one.

Tatler has the perfect example of why photoshopping and overexposing (?) photographs on magazine covers is always a bad idea. Maggie Gyllenhaal... poor thing. She looked fifty times hotter when we saw her a few weeks ago... in person... in the morning... without makeup.

A thirteen-year-old girl and her caseworker are in trouble in Australia after the worker got her a prescription for the pill. The girl, meanwhile, has been living with her eighteen-year-old boyfriend.

And Samantha Ronson gave Lindsay Lohan a commitment ring. We're hoping it wasn't from the same machines that spit out the Homies.
