| Here are my thoughts: I personally never approach a celebrity if I see them in public. Particularly if they're dining or doing something with friends or family. Just because they're dining in a public place that's popular in the industry does not mean that they want to be "on display." If they did they would give a talk or do a book signing or something. I work in the industry & I've been out with famous people. I can assure you that they want to be left alone. Of course there are exceptions. I've been living in NYC for 16 years. I have seen lots of celebrities out & about but I only approached people two or three times. Twice was on the subway. Once when I was in line to get into a show & this person was stuck in a huge line right next to me. Each time I just said hello & mentioned that I was a fan. Two of the times they chose to engage in a brief conversation (which was nice but I would never expect or anticipate that). I've never asked for autographs nor have I asked for selfies. And I would never ever approach someone while they were dining. Like, never ever ever. Leave them be. I once sat next to a Tony-winning theater/TV/film star at an Off-Broadway show & I didn't even say anything then! It took a bit of restraint but he was with a friend & probably appreciated the privacy. Or at least I'd like to think so. I'm sure he gets interrupted plenty of other times. |
