10 Celebrities That Manage to Do Good Deeds Despite Their Tight Schedules
Stars have very busy schedules, but many of them manage to do kind things in between their tours and rehearsals. Some of them buy presents for their fans, while others save people from dangerous situations.
We at Bright Side want to tell you about the celebrities we value, both for their talent and the good things they do.
Lady Gaga buys pizza for her fans.
The singer really loves her fans. In 2017, she was forced to cancel her show in Montreal because she had a bad cold after performing in bad weather in a different city. In order not to upset her fans, she bought them pizza and sent them her autograph.
But this wasn’t the first time Lady Gaga bought something tasty for her fans. In 2009, she gave pizza to all the people waiting in line to get her autograph.
Zach Galifianakis
When this Hollywood star was still an unknown comedian performing at a burger place, he often went to the laundromat. There, he met 87-year-old Elizabeth “Mimi” Haist that lived in the shop and made money off the tips the visitors would give her.
After the success of The Hangover, the actor stopped going to the laundromat. But when he found out his friend became homeless, he rushed to help her. He rented an apartment for her and kept paying all her bills. He also invited Haist to the premiere of The Hangover Part II and The Campaign.
Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp loves wearing the Jack Sparrow costume. He did it when he got a letter from a 9-year-old girl. She asked the actor to come to her school. Depp came to the school dressed as the legendary captain.
Sometime later, Depp sent the girl an invitation to accompany him on the red carpet for the London premiere of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. The child was quite happy. The actor also visits children’s hospitals dressed as Jack Sparrow.
Beyoncé
In 2013, the singer went to the store to get Christmas gifts. But she didn’t only buy gifts for her friends and family — the star bought gift cards for visitors in the sum of $37,500, plus additional greetings cards. 750 people got gifts from Beyoncé.
Colin Farrell
In 2003, when Colin Farrell was working on the film, The Recruit in Toronto, a local radio station offered $2,000 to anyone that could drive him to the studio. The actor thought it was a great chance to help someone. He met a local homeless person and asked him to drive him to the radio. Several years later, Farrell returned to Toronto, met his old acquaintance, bought him clothes, and paid his rent.
Viggo Mortensen
The actor became a real star after the release of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. In the story, Aragorn and his horse, Brego, are loyal friends. In real life, this story was true — Mortensen took the horse with him after the end of the shooting process.
Mortensen also made a present for Liv Tyler’s stunt double. The girl really loved the horse she was working with, but she couldn’t buy it, as the animal was too expensive. So the actor bought the horse for her.
Adam Driver
Ben Affleck’s 8-year-old son was on the verge of having no presents for his birthday, but the boy’s favorite character, Kylo Ren, saved the day. Affleck was doing The Last Duel with Adam Driver. In a conversation with his colleague, the actor said that he was flying to his son’s birthday and that the kid was a big fan of Princess Leia. That’s why Driver recorded a video as Kylo Ren and even signed a card.
After that, he called Affleck’s assistant, found out his colleague’s address, and sent gifts. And it was good he did because the gifts his father bought him weren’t delivered on time.
Kate Winslet
The actress saved an elderly woman from a burning house. Kate Winslet was staying at Richard Branson’s house and a fire started. According to the billionaire, the movie star carried his 90-year-old mother from the fire.
Ryan Gosling
The actor has the great ability to be in the right place at the right time. He once snatched a journalist right from under a car. A girl from Great Britain came to the US, where the driving rules are different. It could’ve ended in tragedy if it hadn’t been for Gosling.
Emma Watson made a boy’s day.
Emma Watson made a kid she didn’t know really happy. The actress was walking around on Halloween when she noticed a boy dressed as Harry Potter. She came up to him and asked, “Excuse me, are you Harry Potter?” The boy said, “Yes.” Watson hugged him and said, “It’s great because I’m Hermione Granger, and we’re best friends!”
In your opinion, who from this list did the kindest thing?
