Not to brag, but when I was a professional reporter, I met alot of celebrities. Some of them my favorites (Wesley Snipes). Being the professional I was at the time, I never let my self be so starstruck that I went totally crazy. In fact, I was in New York a while back and ran into Woody Allen walking his dog. I didn't run up to him and ask for an autograph. I didn't get all crazy and shout, "That's Woody Allen!" I just let him walk on by and offered a polite salutation. When I met Robin Williams all I said was, "You look like that guy..." he said, "I get that all the time." And that was it.
See, I was in a movie once. And while we were filming on location San Francisco, people would run up to me and take pictures. It was rather rude. And since I was a TV reporter at the time, people would recognize me on the street and start talking to me: people I didn't know, but somehow they acted as if they knew me. I'm not saying it wasn't nice to be recognized, but after a while it grows old.
So my question is: If you were to meet, or run into a celebrity, say casually, how would you react? Would you just give them their space, or freak out and search yourself for a pen? It's my belief that celebrities just want to be left alone (unless at a press junket), but sometimes fans can be rude, obnoxious and downright invading.
What kind of fan are you?
