Oprah, Elvis top celebrity neighbor list

TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Sept. 19 (UPI) -- Oprah Winfrey, Elvis Presley and Donald Trump are the top three celebrities people in the United States would like to have as neighbors, a new poll found.

Homes & Land, a real estate media company based in Florida, announced the results Wednesday of its Celebrity Neighbor Survey. The poll asked thousands of U.S. residents to name what famous person they would like to live next door to.

Tiger Woods was the only athlete to make an appearance on the top 20 list. Five singers made the chart -- including Presley, Dolly Parton, Kenny Chesney, Frank Sinatra and Jennifer Lopez.

The top 20 list also included high-powered businessmen Bill Gates and Warren Buffett and media moguls Martha Stewart and Hugh Hefner.

The women surveyed chose -- in descending order -- Winfrey, Paris Hilton, Parton, John Travolta and George Clooney as their top five. Men picked Presley, John Wayne, Trump, Woods and Gates.

Certain personalities received all-male or all-female votes.

Pamela Anderson, Robert De Niro and Al Pacino made the Top 20 overall list through an all-male consensus, Home & Land said.

Princess Diana and Richard Gere, on the other hand, had an all-female following.
