Heartthrob Johnny Depp again tops the list of nice guys as he ranks number one in an annual poll of the best celebrity autograph signers, Autograph magazine reported Friday. The Sweeney Todd actor heads the list for the third consecutive year.
"Whether at a premiere, in a restaurant or on location, Depp may just be the best Hollywood autograph signer of all time," said Steve Cyrkin, the magazine's editor and publisher.
Matt Damon and George Clooney came second and third on the top ten list, which also included Jack Nicholson, John Travolta and Russell Crowe.
Crowe had been on the magazine's top 10 worst autograph signer's list last year. "(Crowe) may still be a bit grumpy at times but now he signs pretty much anytime anyone asks," Cyrkin said.
The not-so-nice guys include comic actor Will Ferrell, who topped the magazine's WORST list, just ahead of Tobey Maguire and Joaquin Phoenix.
"What's so frustrating about Will Ferrell being the worst autograph signer this past year is that he used to be so nice to fans and collectors, and a great signer," Cyrkin said.
The magazine compiled the list based on the observations of judges based in Europe, New York and California.
