Even if I was the number one fan of a celebrity, a nod and a smile is all that’s really polite in a non public event situation. (And then only if they caught me gawking.)

Not that I’ll ever have to worry about it, but you’d have to pay me a serious amount of money (as in more than a lead actor’s salary) to take on the burden of celebrity. I’ll never understand the mentality of those who simply aspire to fame for the sake of fame.

That’s what I’d like to do and what I’d like to think I would do
On the rare occasion that I found myself in the vicinity of a celebrity I admire, I’ve even pulled it off.
But put me in an elevator with Rowan Atkinson or Tony Robinson and suddenly have a cunning plan. And no sense of boundaries with my blithering admiration.
Glad I’ll never be famous.

If I’m going to approach a celebrity in the street and interrupt their day, I have to really and deeply admire their work (e.g. having spent time analysing what makes it so good). I’ve done that maybe twice, kept it very short (no gushing thesis dissertations on their ouevre), did not ask for an autograph or selfie. Both times they were very gracious.

I was watching season 3 of Jessica Jones last night and came to the realization that Killgrave and Crowley were played by the same actor and kind of amazed.
