True New Yorkers do not bother celebrities, I'm proud to say. When I first arrived from the swamps of Northern Florida, I was always thrilled to see a celebrity in person. I worked at Tiffany's, so, I saw at least one a day. Just seeing these famous faces was enough for me. Years pass, and I find myself in the company of some famous names, and it's interesting to see how the public reacts when encountering a famous face. Most people are polite. When I exit a stage door, it's amusing to read the faces of the fans behind the barricades. Someone once blurted, " Oh, that's nobody!" I might be offended, if it weren't so amusing.
Meanwhile, back at Joe Allen, if you spot a celeb, and you catch their eye, just smile. It's the easiest compliment you can bestow. |
