TAYLOR SWIFT and JUSTIN BIEBER have proved their
politeness once again after they were named the world's Best Mannered
celebrities for the second year running.
The two
singers were both honoured for their etiquette by America's National League of Junior
Cotillions (NLJC) last year and they are leading the pack once again in the
organisation's 2012 nods.
NLJC national
director Elizabeth Anne Winters says of Swift, "(She inspires) young
people with her music and her manners... We think that she conducts herself
with such graciousness with her fans.
Keeping her dignity and poise as she
created the Red album, and not really having anything that would sour her
reputation."
Bieber was
honoured for "consistently showing courtesy to his many fans," and
British actor Daniel Radcliffe was feted for being nice to his Potter devotees,
while Matt Damon was hailed as "a positive role model in Hollywood to younger generations".
British royal
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge was honoured for "the poise and dignity
with which she conducts herself in the public spotlight", but her
brother-in-law Prince Harry was named and shamed for his bad behaviour.
Harry was
named The Most Ill-Mannered Person of 2012 for "disregarding his
prestigious title and misbehaving in the public spotlight".
The dishonour is linked to Harry's infamous
trip to Las Vegas
earlier this year (12), when photos of the prince playing billiards naked
surfaced online.
