Jimmy Fallon Is America’s Choice for Most Desirable Celebrity Neighbor
Published at
Lloyd Bishop/NBC(NEW YORK) — Jimmy Fallon comes across as such a nice guy on TV that some of us wouldn’t mind living near him.
The Tonight Show host tops a survey by real estate marketplace Zillow of the most desirable celebrity neighbors. He earned 10 percent of the vote — a slight drop from last year’s edition of the survey, on which he was also the most popular choice.
Country music couple Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert rank second, with nine percent, and Matthew McConaughey and Taylor Swift are tied for third, with seven percent each.
The names at the top of Zillow’s list for most undesirable celebrity neighbors should come as no surprise. Pop star and troublemaker Justin Bieber scored 34 percent of the vote, followed by married couple Kim Kardashian and Kanye West at 22 percent. Kardashian and West were number one last year.
Thirty-six percent of participants said they wouldn’t want to live next to any celebrity mentioned in the survey.
More than one thousand adults were surveyed between December 4 and 8.
The Zillow survey is not the only proof that Fallon is well-liked. He’s also been named the best-mannered person of the past 25 years by the National League of Junior Cotillions, an organization that trains and licenses directors to establish local cotillion programs.
The NLJC praised Fallon “for maintaining the dignity and respect of others through his comedic disposition as the host of The Tonight Show as well as his continuing support of charitable organizations.”
The NLJC annually releases a Top-Ten Best-Mannered List, but this year it announced a ranking of the Twenty-Five Best-Mannered People of the Past Twenty-Five Years in honor of its 25th anniversary.
Fallon is followed on the new NLJC list by ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir, NFL quarterback Peyton Manning, former first lady Barbara Bush, and the late comedian Bob Hope.
