20 People Share Adorable, Wholesome Stories Of Their Encounter With Famous Celebrities
We shouldn't ever meet our heroes, so the saying goes. It can be the greatest day of your life if they're cooperative and eager to take a selfie with you.
But if they're unpleasant and inhospitable, your favorite movie, music, or book could become irreversibly tarnished. We feel we know everything about our favorite celebrities, but the truth is that we only know as much as the internet feeds us.
You see, famous people are usually cloaked in mystery. We're always interested in finding out more about them, including whether or not they look as nice in real life and, most importantly, if they're regular people like us.
Fortunately, there are a ton of people who have posted their stories online. It's all about meeting famous people by coincidence.
So, even if their stories don't address every one of your questions, they may prove that some of these celebrities are as human as you. Additionally, this list may pique your interest in learning more about some of the biggest stars in the world that you haven't had the opportunity to meet.
