The unique thing about these particular people is that they are fully and utterly themselves, and nobody can take that away from them.

I want to decide that for myself.” And so, here are the world’s Top 9 Coolest People as well as some honorable mentions.

Honorable Mentions: Adam Levine, Diplo, Justin Timberlake, Jennifer Lawrence, Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Ed Westwick, Blake Lively, James Franco, and Andrea Pirlo.
