He’s won the Heisman Trophy, two BCS National Championships and had his pants sell for $5,000 on eBay, but now Denver Broncos sorta-quarterback Tim Tebow is winning the awards that really matter … like the fifth annual Zillow Celebrity Neighbor Survey. Yes, that is a thing. It “asks Americans which celebrities they would most like to have as their neighbor, as well as celebs with whom they wouldn’t dare share a fence” and Tebow is on top. The Jersey Shore people are on the bottom, as usual.
From People, with a hat tip to Sportress Of Blogitude:
U.S. adults would most like to be neighbors with Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow, whose unshakable attitude and consistent displays of faith during games (a.k.a. “Tebowing”) has bolstered much media attention during the last year. The survey showed the 24-year-old athlete’s popularity was significantly higher among males (14 percent) compared to females (7 percent).
Celebrity super couples Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux received 10 percent and 9 percent of the vote, respectively.
He’s a kindhearted gentleman and you get an endless supply of footballs lost in your yard!
Also, how funny is it that Justin Theroux is considered one-half of a “celebrity super couple”? I get that he’s dating a lady who was on ‘Friends’, but damn, being Leslie Knope’s worst boyfriend for four episodes and playing a cowboy in Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion don’t make you an A-lister. I agree with most of the rest of the list (including Nancy Grace ranking on both lists, because whatever, people are stupid in both directions), but I would love to have Lindsay Lohan as a neighbor. She’s never home, and when she IS there’s a chance she’ll be naked and falling all over me. Also, it would mean I’m rich enough to live in Lindsay Lohan’s neighborhood.
