List of Famous People With ESTP Personality

Famous ESTP Personalities
ESTP (extroverted sensing thinking perceiving) is one of the sixteen personality types defined by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) test. ESTPs make up about 4% of the population, and are more likely to be men than women.

ESTPs are defined by action. They are quick, restless thinkers and poor planners. They’d rather just jump into a situation with both feet, and if things go wrong, they can always adjust on the fly.

ESTPs are very adaptable, able to roll with changes where more structured personalities would be paralyzed.Click To Tweet

ESTPs are adaptable and clever, able to roll with changes where more structured and intellectual personalities would be paralyzed. They take nothing seriously, least of all themselves.

Other personalities can find ESTPs exhausting to keep up with, and it’s true they can leave a trail of wreckage in their wake as they bull ahead. But there’s rarely any malice in them, and they’re always fun to be with.

Here are some celebrities who fit the ESTP type.

About Daniel

I was first introduced to the Myers Briggs types a few years ago by my girlfriend. Finding out why I behaved a certain way was reassuring. I created this site so you can have fun and learn more about your personality. If you are curious, I have always tested INTJ.

    Is your girlfriend an ENFP? Considering you’re an INTJ, you’ll probably be like ‘lol wtf’ but I’m just curious.

    How is Epicurus not a deep thinker? Or James Randi who has won the MacArthur “Genius Grant”? I think there is a common, yet subtle trait that characterizes ESTP thinking, but it’s not necessarily a lack of depth.

      I completely agree. I’m an ESTP and I think very deeply about philosophies. But the way I do so is very hard for many people. Because although I think in depth I do not complex things. I rather see the world as complex mechanism but not imposible to understand.

        Yes! I have deep thoughts but I don’t think it’s complex until I try to explain it to someone else. People also think I come across as rude sometimes because I’ll send a very long drawn out text without any emotion on how to solve a problem.

    As an ESTP who’s with an INFJ I’m losing my mind here. She goes off on long rants about all different kinds of stuff then gets mad when I simplify things. I do think very deeply but I move and act with simplicity. I never send long text, and I hate arguing.

      I dated an INFJ as an ESTP, you’re right it was difficult. Hopefully explaining where you’re coming from and how you speak will help

      As an INFJ I’m mildly offended, but can see where you’re coming from, lol.
      It’s important to check if she’s healthy (as in, in a good mental place), and fully self-aware, because being there helps us gauge other people’s emotions better and thus, know when others don’t appreciate our existencial rants (or how to deliver them better), hahaha.
      Wish you all the best!
