I've met and worked with plenty of them, but here are some that come to the top of my head right now.

Kanye West: about as nice as you'd imagine...
Kim Kardashian: actually fairly polite.
Mama Kardashian: very lovely lady.
David Hasselhoff: psychotic freak.
Matt Damon: mega-cool and down to earth.
Bruce Willis: also mega-cool and down to earth.
Brad Pitt: also mega-cool and down to earth.
Marilyn Manson: really mellow and surprisingly talkative.
Keanu Reeves: dumb, but friendly and polite.
Jennifer Garner: probably closer to what people think of when they think of Julia Roberts, than Julia Roberts is.
Julia Roberts: diva.
Alicia Keys: diva.
Britney Spears: actually quite friendly (and I met her during her nutso stage).
Drake: prick.
Common: pretty legit guy.
Snoop: really awesome, surprisingly willing to invite you to go blaze with him.
Slash: also really cool, down-to-earth guy, offered me a smoke.
DMX: makes it clear he's not really into talking with you, but is still civil.
Chris Martin (Coldplay): kind of a douche.
Sarah Silverman: super friendly, and a riot in person.
Pamela Anderson: very polite and funny.
Dennis Leary: prick.

Special mentions:
Paul Walker was a ridiculously cool guy. I miss him a lot.
Keith Flint of The Prodigy was one of the most polite, reverent, and generally nice celebs I've ever met; contrast that with his image, which is actually how he dresses day-to-day.

"Lindsay" and it's 3 episodes in. The first episode REALLY shows her true colors as there is no fabricated story line to make her seem like a nice woman.

That was the only one that was truly surprising in contrast to what people on this thread kept saying about him!

Curious, since you are all the way in China, how did you meet/work with all of these celebs? Did you recently relocate?

Actually, I meant that he was a serious jerk! Basically, it was like me saying "fill in the blanks."

Yeah, I lived/worked in Beverly Hills up until a couple months ago.

Uh, my bad. I guess I had a total "Keanu" moment there!
Kidding aside, what made you think he was "dumb"?

So, you had to move out of the country before posting all the dirt on celebrities on C-D?

I've always heard bad things about her and I can believe it, she's always come across that way to me and I never understood why she was such a big star. I never knew anyone who liked her.

Do you mean Jennifer Garner is nice? I'm a little confused because I had no preconceived notions of how Julia Roberts was supposed to be. I figure Jennifer is nice from interviews, but those can be deceiving too. Have you ever worked with Drew Barrymore? She seems like the nicest person on Hollywood in her interviews.

I'm not surprised about Brittney Spears being nice. She's from Louisiana. They're usually nice.

Either dumb or perpetually really, really, really baked, man. Like, epic baked... it can take a few repeats before things fully stick to him. Not the words, just the concepts. But, he's a really nice guy.

Actually, yes, to an extent.... Not really of course, but in my previous line of work where I dealt with celebrities personally, it could have been disastrous for my job and business if I'd openly talked smack about one who sucked. The odds of them being able to determine who I was from an ultimately fairly obscure place is fairly slim, but the ones that I'm saying negative things about are generally all a bit more on the "nutsoid-aggressive" end of the spectrum, and have the resources to hire someone to go back and figure out IP addresses and whatnot, and ultimately get back to me. Which, again, could have had dire consequences for me, even from the celebs who I had nothing but praise for... no one likes a tattletale!

Now that I spend my days teaching small Chinese kids how to say "apple" and "swim," I can afford to lay out some of the nitty gritty.

For instance, John Mayer likes to pee on chicks, and The Hoff (who actually likes to be called The Hoff) occasionally drinks so much he wets himself. John from John & Kate Plus 8 is actually gay/bi, or at least, he doesn't have anything against spending quality alone time with trannies. You know, stuff like that... maybe I'll write a book.

Nicest: picklejuice. Also, picklejuice is much better looking in person!

Rudest: Leon Spinks.

Most celebrities I've met are nice. No reason for them not to be, really.

But the most perfect celebrity I've ever encountered is probably George Clooney. He's not only charming and funny and gracious, but listens to you so attentively that you start to feel he's absolutely fascinated by what you're saying.
