What actor/actress do you like who isn't "all Hollywood".
You know. Doesn't get splashed across the tabloid front pages. Doesn't have a true Hollywood story. Doesn't have paparazzi camped at the Starbucks they frequent. Doesn't have their love lives speculated about endlessly. Etc, etc., etc.

I like Ed Harris. He doesn't seem all Hollywood.

5. Linney was great in "John Adams"
I like when actresses aren't afraid to be real.

17. Bridgit the Midget.

Yes, she is a porn star, but she was also good in a non-porn role in "Tiptoes."

18. love him, but he's
embraced Hollywood a little more. However you're right in that at least he's not all over the tabloids every other week.

13. Gary Sinise
His stock really went up in my eyes when it was reported that he doesn't have a publicist because he has no desire to be followed by the paps... and publicists make it happen.

15. Tilda Swinton.
Edited on Sun Feb-22-09 09:57 PM by elshiva
Actually I have a big list, but I'll just say Tilda Swinton because she was the first to come to my mind. Of course, I love the actors in my avatar and sig line John Goodman and Alexis Denisof.

19. Terry O'Quinn
Prefers to live in suburban Baltimore rather than in SoCal, married to his wife for almost 30 years, gracious to his fans, and still wins an Emmy.
