Once I saw Usain Bolt just walking down a street and I didn't want to bother him so I kept walking. Around an hour later I saw him again at a stoplight and I tried my hardest not to start being a fanboy over him, so I was shaking so hard trying to contain my excitement. After like 3 minutes of waiting he looked over at me a said, "Hey I like your shirt" I was wearing a pokemon shirt, I did end up getting a photo with him. Super nice guy 10/10 experience

So in the Philippines, there's this popular celebrity named Anne Curtis and in 2017, me and my family went to Siargao. We were with one of my mom's friends and her daughter who was 3 years old or so and I was on babysitting duty while we were eating at this restaurant. In typical toddler fashion, my mom's friend's daughter started running around so I followed her so that she doesn't get lost or something. And then she goes near the table Anne Curtis and her friends were at and I was shocked so I just gently grabbed the child's hand and lead her back to the table we were at. I don't exactly remember what I felt at that moment since it was... 4 years ago but I know that in my head I was like "Nah, it couldn't be her. It's just someone else probably. My mind is just tricking me or something." and then when we got home, my mom mentioned that Anne Curtis was in Siargao around the same time we were there and that's when I realized that yep, that was her.

there was this one time i went to mexico and one of my favorite tiktoker/youtuber also happened to be in mexico, so i was excited thinking we would be in the same country (weird ik). But i was also disappointed cause the chances of meeting her in a giant country was close to nothing. So i got to the resort, and it was so fun that night i decided "imma see what shes up to" so i check her channel and her newest video was her at a resort.. You see where i'm going with this? Well I looked at the background of her video and I was thinking to myself how familiar it looked, like RLLY familiar, like i was literally there an hour or 2 prior. So i was so hyped thinking that i might see my favorite youtuber, my dreams were crushed though when she posted something about going to a different resort (for context she was in fact at my resort but she went to a different resort after I had been there for like a day. So all hope was lost for me. UNTILLL... It was the last day and it was a super fun trip i had completely forgotten about the whole situation just enjoying my trip we got our luggage picked up and went onto a shuttle to go to the airport along with stopping by a few other resorts. well as we were stopping by another resort, i look out my window and THERE SHE IS, RIGHT THERE. I WAS SHOOK. I had no clue what to do i was shaking anfd my sister told me to go get a photo with her, so I gave my sister my phone and asked if i coulf get a photo with her. SO NOW I HAVE A RLLY COOL PHOTO. and this is one of two cool storys about meeting a celebrity. it was so amazing

[@arrctyk7994]

I'm Canadian so laterally the closest thing I've got to a celebrity encounter is when a small singer/songwriter from nova scotia visited my school, and I sat like a meter away from him. Whereas my brother was lucky enough to have a semi popular Minecraft KZbin visit his school. (I cant remember his name only that his name and skin had something to do with sharks, and he was Canadian)

I met the VA of Marco Diaz last June and, Toph’s and Toga’s. I didn’t really know which character the other VA played but, my cousin got video of him on Snapchat

[@DianaDxD]

I actually remember going to a mall in LA where I was waiting for a friend to use the restroom at Target And while I was waiting I noticed a woman with her daughter and to me she looked vaguely familiar. That was until my sister pointed her out and I realized I was near Ming-Na Wen aka the voice of Mulan and Fennec Shand from the Mandalorian. I remembered absolutely freaking out on the inside and I asked her if I could take a picture with her and she said sure. We chatted for a bit but I didn't wanna hold her up cuz she was with her daughter shopping for school supplies so I said my good byes and when my friend came back I excitedly told the story of what happened. Best Day ever in my opinion🥰 btw she's an absolute sweetheart and was very nice🥰

[@echothefreak9396]

I’ve literally never seen a celebrity before irl(not counting minecon) but I have online :D I was playing Wings of Fire on roblox and I met Bellasaurus, who, lemme just say, was being crowded and bombarded with questions. Poor Bella

[@pinklemonade8269]

ppl keep commenting this, I've heard of Markiplier before but I barely know anything about them, are they really famous or something?

[@impagain]

@@pinklemonade8269 lmao yes, he's one of the biggest gaming youtubers ever (one of the OG Big youtubers in general), one of the biggest reasons FNAF took off, and an all around good guy. Last year him and CrankGamePlays did a big project called Unus Annus, which was them making qnf uploading a video every single day for a whole year, and then deleting the channel at the end. It was legendary. You should check him out and see if his videos are your cup of tea, because he's a really delightful guy! 😊

[@pinklemonade8269]

@@impagain cool :D also idk who CrankGamePlays are

[@impagain]

@@pinklemonade8269 CrankGamePlays is another gaming youtuber, Ethan Nestor. He's also got a fun personality and is really fun to watch! He's kind of a goober, and does ADHD toy videos sometimes. I also really recommend his channel, both him and Markiplier are really nice people and have a lot of fun content!

The closest I ever got to meeting someone popular/ famous was Ratana. The EN VA of Yae Miko from Genshin Impact and Leonie from Fire Emblem. She came to my local animethon and since I went on the last day, I only waited 10 minutes for a picture and a signed Yae Miko poster. She’s really cool and chill

[@Kai-pu2mt]

I met TheOdd1sOut at my comic con, and we were getting signatures from him along with photos. Everyone was having him sign their 3-day passes, and me, wanting to be the unique one, asked him to sign my Kirby stress squishie that I got from a friend. He awkwardly laughed, and said "On there? Okay..." And did sign the squishie, and I also got a photo (Sadly I think the photo is gone, that phone went away a long time ago). Sometimes I wonder if he even remembers that, but thinking about it, probably not.

[@mushroomlover479]

BRO I WOULD LOVE TO MEET JAMES! He is one creator I wouldn't freak out about. Not because he isn't as special. He just has this personality that makes you feel so safe and comfortable. If that makes sense

[@Kai-pu2mt]

Oh yeah, it makes sense, haha. He's a very chill guy, but he still intimidated me because he's so popular! I remember telling him to keep being awesome and he dabbed at me (This is when it was cool to do it, not like 2019 or 2020).

[@TheDramacist]

James seems very shy to me. The Amaazing is much more intimidating

[@sydahnee157]

In 2016 or 17 James, jaiden, timtom, and Adam did a meet n greet in boise idaho and I met them, I still have signed Fanart and pictures

I've encountered two celebrities. The first one I saw was Chuggaaconroy when I was 18. I was at a meetup with a bunch of youtubers in his circle and I had the most awkward conversation with him ever. The second celebrity was The Professor from Tolarian Community College when I was 21. I was at a card store playing Magic I was kind of shocked to see him but it made sense that I would encounter him at this place since he was on vacation with his family in my area and this was the particular store that sponsors his channel.

[@Deedoo_r]

this one time David Wax Museum stayed at my house, all of them were there. when I went on a trip to New York I met Fred Armisen and he told my family a bit about the city, specifically what cars were, what the UN flags near 30rockafeller were and that there were buildings in NY. that was cool

[@AnimeloverotakuloveNinachan]

I love how most of these is. “Don’t bother the creator” vibes and I stand for it 😂 there people and people need space man don’t Attack Your Fav Creator🗣

[@Cloud-he4yh]

I get that, but politely coming up to them to say hi because you're a fan isn't attacking, at least :0 I know some people can be really invasive with the creators they love, but most of them are relatively calm

My husband and I went to a movie theater in Wisconsin. And we saw Ninja from youtube... We didn't know him and in the Hallway my husband needed to fart really bad. So he did in the hallway. Moments later Ninja walk through that hallway and we didn't know... He had discussed a look on his face when he walked through the fart. 🤣😂 So he farted on a celebrity. I heard he was visiting family or something.
