13 Celebrity Run-Ins That Will Make Your Day

Source: ad0rkablelol on Reddit

Why is it that we get so extremely excited when we run into a celebrity?

Well, there’s the cool factor. Famous people have a lot of popularity, and some piece of us deep down expects that maybe by being associated with them, even for a minute, we can be cool too, and finally show our middle-school selves that it was all worthwhile.

But there’s a slightly less cynical angle to it as well. Through media like movies and TV, we spend a lot of quality time with strangers. Our minds come to think of them as, well, sort of friends. And when we see the actual humans, for a moment, even though you’ve never met them, it kind of feels like connecting with a friend you haven’t seen in literally forever.

And the best kind of celebrities are the kind that get that, and will take the time to make a moment with you. Moments that often end up on Reddit, like these.
