4 people who seem exceptionally nice when they come on the show

I have often been asked, who is the biggest ass or who is really nice - off air - when they come on the show..here are 4 people that stand out...

James Brown...he seemed to make a point to give a friendly hello to everyone in office..now whether he was reallly a nice guy, who knows, he did have rumors about hitting and I think shooting some former girlfriends/wives..but when he came on show he was always really old school polite and nice..one of my favorite James Brown stories - he owned or rented some office space down in Georgia ..and on his floor another business also had office space..there was a bathroom on the floor, but the bathroom was supposed to just be James..but the people from the other business were using his bathroom - so, one day, James walked into their boardroom while a meting was going on, shot his gun into the air and announced to them "Stop using my bathroom"

Drew Carey..whether its out of insecurity or just plain niceness this guy was so nice - I remember him in the green room - this was years ago , back when I was an intern or just starting out and I think I was carrying a box and he asked if I needed help moving the stuff I was carrying around and when I said no thanks, he asked in all seriousness if while he was waiting to to go on the show if there was anything he could be doing to help around the office, answer phones, etc

John Stamos like James Brown, Stamos always seems to make it a point to give everyone a hello and I am not just talking the obvious, Howard and Robin, I am talking everyone from receptionists, interns on up, very complimentary, very nice...I also probably have a softspot for Stamos cause people always get us confused lookwise and think I am him and vice versa

Dave Chappelle..there is just something so sweet about the guy, and I am also talking times I have ran into him on street years before I met him thru the show..I've also always felt a sadness about him.cant pinpoint it, exactly but you want to hug the guy
(and no I am not gay, I am going to go have sex with a woman right now)
