People Reveal The Stupidest Things They’ve Said To Celebrities

I swear to you, I’ve almost met Ranveer Singh a few times. But if I were to ever meet him, face-to-face, and have to actually talk to him, I might just make a colossal fool of myself. Being starstruck does that to people! You can have months and months of practicing before the mirror, but meeting celebrities can happen so unexpectedly that you might not have your wits about you!

Twitter user @rachyymarshall posed a question to her Twitter fam about their most embarrassing encounter with a celebrity.

Well, close nuff!

Believe it or not, Twitterati are super starstruck folk and had plenty of hilarious specimen of ‘stupidity in the face of celebrities’ to share!

Relax, bub! You’re not alone!

The most obvious and first thing that comes to every fan when they’re not sure if the person is a celeb or not!

This is not stupid, FYI. Everybody, even emotions and senses, kneel before Loki!

i yelled to tom hiddleston that i loved him with tears in my eyes when he was like half a meter away from me and i feel the need to apologize for it every day because of how genuinely scared he looked https://t.co/3UPCrkpJLa

That’s definitely not Alright! Alright! Alright! Hulk ANGRY!

When I was 14 Mark Ruffalo was eating at the table across from me and I pointed to him and said, without a shred of doubt, “That’s Matthew McConaughey!” https://t.co/QpLDc96aZS

When at loss about what to say to Star Lord, stick to “I am Groot”.

I greeted Chris Pratt by saying “have you had a good morning?” But I mumbled my words so he just stared at me in silence for a full minute then said “what?” And I repeated what I’d said and he said “oooooh, I thought you’d just said ‘good morning’ then stared at me!” https://t.co/n8Lh87syjz

It’s the worst luck to have plane encounters with celebs because if you’re dying with embarrassment, you can’t even escape!

Matt Damon asked if I was okay as I struggled to put my suitcase in the overhead compartment (he and his whole family were seated around me) I said “I’m just trying really hard not to accidentally hit one of your kids in the face” https://t.co/xtFRIdRXxr

Never ask a celeb if they’re actually using the products they endorse/launch!

I asked Britney Spears if she was wearing her own perfume she was like um ya

I bumped (literally, physically bumped) into Michael Keaton and loudly gasped "OMG BATMAN"

This. This is literally an American Horror Story!

I asked Emma Roberts and Evan Peters to take a picture…of my friends and I. She said "Yeah sure" but looked super confused as why I was handing her the camera and us lining up against the display. Tbh I only realized it was her while they were already taking our picture so… https://t.co/NJRf2ElMTK

These next three incidents probably made the people in them wish they could disappear from the spot using magic like Harry Potter!

YOU DID NOT JUST DO THAT WITH MINERVA FREAKING MCGONAGALL!

You do not tell Frodo, the little guy who has LIVED the whole Lord of the Rings, that Lord of the Rings is too long OMG!

I met Elijah Wood (Frodo from Lord of the Rings) with my brother and I went on about how much I love them, ect, and he looked to my brother and he said "I can't lie, I haven't seen any of the movies in full" and Elijah Wood said "Yeah, they're kinda long"

Okay folks, now here are a few interesting ones about our soon-to-be jiju Nick Jonas and his Jonas Bros!

Pay attention because you might need it. I hear he’s already flying down to Delhi for his and PeeCee’s wedding and what if you run into him and don’t know what to say?

I didn’t say anything weird…but Nick J smiled and looked at his team like “da fuck” when he saw my old Jonas Brothers CD lol and then his team made an announcement that there would be NO MORE AUTOGRAPHS 😅 https://t.co/2erZkiDGC2

I was checking out Kevin Jonas’s groceries once and I asked him if he had any coupons https://t.co/rcbG7nYs4U

Imagine Dragons and then imagine embarrassment that actually turned out to be quite cute!

Walked into an Imagine Dragons m&g with no idea what to say and I was like “will y’all be my dads” and Dan Reynolds just goes “DAUGHTER!” 🙃

These people just scared sweet, beautiful David Beckham.

A group of us screamed so loud at David Beckham that he thought we were completely insane and he honestly looked terrified https://t.co/nd0IduIDKH

Shawn Mendes probably got you. I mean, he sang ‘Nervous’!

i was standing in front of the tv and a pic of shawn mendes album came up and i said ‘who’s that’ and shawn mendes, beside me, replied ‘i’m not sure’ https://t.co/vKKZq618hh

Blll Nye the Science Guy is also the guy you don’t wanna say stupid things to!

i met Bill Nye three years ago and said “if you want to go to Mars so bad, there’s a Mars Café just down the street” and he looked me in the eye and said “it’s closed.” https://t.co/hfzY0PBqn6

Anyhoo, coming back to me. I’m deathly afraid that when if I ever meet Shah Rukh Khan, I might just tell him my name and add “naam toh suna hoga” after it. Just FYI, SRK. I’m not crazy or anything!
