It's easy for plenty of celebrities to get caught up in the rough and tumble of Hollywood fame. I mean, can you imagine how difficult to keep a level head amidst all the glitter and lights? Luckily for us, though, every once in a while we get the few genuine role models in the limelight from time to time. 

It's not to say that ALL celebrities set awful examples, although some of them arguably do (I'm looking at you Justin Bieber). And it also wouldn't be fair to say that all celebrities that offer a good example don't also have their moments of weakness where they're ... um ... less than inspirational (to say the least). But hey, no one's perfect, so we can't chastise celebrities for being human, too.
