7. Lin-Manuel Miranda

The man single-handedly responsible for Hamilton: An American Musical, Lin-Manuel Miranda has been charming the pants off of theatre lovers for years. But now the world is experiencing this brilliant man and honestly, you’re all welcome.

From his love of Jonathan Groff (and he really loves Jonathan Groff), to everything he does, Lin gives over 100% into everything and it makes him one of the most likable success stories of all time. Usually, when something like Hamilton comes along, we all get annoyed after a while.

And yet with Lin-Manuel Miranda, we’re still praising him and talking about him years later. Yeah, guys, Hamilton has been around for years at this point. And that’s saying something about the staying power that Miranda has.

Now with Moana, Lin continues to shine, and honestly, it feels like our son growing up and taking on the world. Fans of his are just so proud of everything he’s doing and he continues to make us excited to be his fans by his unwavering support of all the good things in the world.

So Lin makes the cut because really, you can’t play Alexander Hamilton and not be charming. Otherwise, people would have shot the man way before Burr did.
