NEW YORK, Sept. 8 (UPI) -- A magazine poll has found that U.S. TV talk show host Oprah Winfrey and Hollywood star Tom Hanks appear to be the most trusted celebrities.

The New York Post reported Monday that a recent AOL Living and Woman's Day magazine poll indicated that 37 percent of the poll's nearly 2,000 participants said Winfrey was their most trusted celebrity compared with Hank's first-place support of 40 percent.

While the poll's respondents clearly have a liking for the popular adviser and the "Forest Gump" actor, poll participants appear to be less trusting of their loved ones.

The Post, which didn't provide a margin of error for the poll, said 67 percent of respondents admitted they wanted to know everyone their husband was contacting by e-mail or text message. Children's messages were also not off-limits to respondents as 75 percent said they routinely check who their kids are messaging.

The poll also found that 24 percent of female respondents admitted to cheating on their spouses, while 48 percent of the nearly 2,000 people polled said they considered themselves honest people.
