Swiping right for the former High School Musical star seems like a no-brainer, but in reality, dating apps haven't been a success for Efron. Back in 2016, the Baywatch actor admitted that he tried Tinder, but people didn't chat with him.

"Amazingly, when I signed up for Tinder, nobody swiped me!" he said. "They thought [my profile] was fake." We would've swiped!

The former Gossip Girl actor doesn't seem like a man who would need any online help to find a mate, but back in 2010, Crawford was ready to try anything to find a girlfriend.

Unlike many celebrities on this list, the Snatched actress hasn't used Tinder. Instead, she used Raya — aka "Tinder for famous people" — to met her ex-boyfriend Ben Hanisch. "In my main profile picture, I was wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap with no makeup. It was a selfie and I made a gross face, looking as though I were dying, because I was hiking, so I was," Schumer wrote in her book, The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo.

"I also put up a picture of Sophia from The Golden Girls, Claire Danes making her cry face on Homeland, and one more normal photo where I was smiling and wearing a sweatshirt," she explained. "Vanessa [Bayer] and I posted our profiles at the same time and scream-giggled like little girls."

In 2015, the New England Patriots tight end told anyone and everyone who was listening about his tips and tricks for using Tinder. Spoiler alert: he didn't take the dating app too seriously.
