They believe that issues like this are in God's hands. However, as imperfect humans, sometimes presumptuousness can creep into an individual's point of view and Witnesses are not immune to this human tendency. But as far as an official stance, only God and his son Jesus make judgments on who is righteous or not.

There are many good people in the world - even some atheists have finer conduct than people who claim to be followers of Christ. What then is a righteous person? Its more than someone who does no bad to others. Neither is it simple someone who is humble. Nor is it simple someone who actively shows love to others. These are important, but a righteous person also is a spiritual person, one who can gain more kindness and love and humility because he wants to know and please God. As said, God can see inside hearts, and he has appointed Jesus to judge humans, not humans to judge humans.

Another Answer: The book The Road to Everlasting Life-Have You Found It? published 2002 by the Watchtower Society says on Part 9 Page 30 under the heading 'The Righteous will Possess the Earth'
10 Only those who draw close to Jehovah and serve him will live in Paradise. The Bible says: "Just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; and you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, and they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace."-Psalm 37:10, 11.
11 Those who stubbornly refuse to obey God's righteous laws will lose their lives forever. (2 Thessalonians 1:8, 9) They will be no more. They will join Satan and his demons in everlasting death. (Revelation 20:10, 14) But those who learn about Jehovah and serve him will find exquisite delight in Paradise on earth.

Jehovah's Witnesses have no celebrities. Jehovah's Witnesses do not recognize anyone as celebrities. We consider no one as 'famous'.If non-witnesses consider someone who is one of Jehovah's Witnesses as a celebrity, we would have no knowledge of their views.Perhaps this is where a non-Witness can provide a list of those they consider a celebrity, that also happens to be a Witness. But we could not confirm whether they really are a Witness or not. We keep no such records.

Are Jehovahs allowed to find fellowship outside of Kingdom Hall?
Yes, they fellowship outside the Kingdom Hall often in social gatherings. However, they do prefer to associate mainly with other witnesses unless it is a situation where teaching a non-witness is involved. There is no hard rule set on how often, or in what circumstances you can associate with non-witnesses. But it is highly discouraged to have purely social interactions with non-witnesses because of the possible detrimental affects that association with people that do not share their beliefs could have on their morality standards and faith.
