Better a bad bomb than a bombadLets talk about celebrities who behave admirably, who do something worthwhile with their status.
Rule: Whatever good thing they do can't be the main reason they are famous. Jonas Salk was very famous for curing polio, so he wouldn't count.
Brad Pitt-
Despite seeming the biggest douche on Earth for his Chanel #5 commercials, I admire that he throws his effort and celebrity into his non-profit "Make It Right" organization to rebuild New Orleans with quality green housing. An odd choice for a dude who supposedly loves Ayn Rand, but still, good for him.

Water.org is an American nonprofit developmental aid organization resulting from the merger between H2O Africa, co-founded by Matt Damon, and WaterPartners, co-founded by Gary White. Its goal is to provide aid to regions of developing countries that do not have access to safe drinking water and sanitation.
However, in practice you must take into account the "fuckwit factor". Just talk to Darth Mallwalker...

Gary was a cross-country runner in high school, and a team mate of mine. Go Celtics!
