Ingrid Bergman said the exact same thing about Cary Grant before meeting him. She expected him to be a douchebag / diva but he turned out to be a very humble dude and they ended up good friends.
It's probably because he starred in all those films where he'd just smile, say a few words with confidence, and melt the co-starring female character. It makes people feel like that's just the way he is, some cocky douchebag that just smiles... but after seeing him portray other types of characters and also seeing him star in better films (much of his filmography consists of mediocre movies where they just milk his name for money), I now consider him as one of the best actors of his generation.
