I am a huge dork and I apologize to the people I talked to if I came across at all scary and obsessive. It was nerves and I promise I will not stalk you."<br /><br />I think that sums it up pretty well.Rynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08060462128762202471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8420181682705655952.post-75396508165456507842010-10-18T06:12:09.988-07:002010-10-18T06:12:09.988-07:00Here is what I try to keep in mind when meeting st...Here is what I try to keep in mind when meeting stars/idols/messiahs:<br /><br />When meeting celebrities (musicians, actors, authors) I usually say the same thing. Something like "I really enjoy your work, thanks for doing it" or, in the case of performers that I have just finished seeing live "Very nice work/show, I enjoyed it." <br /><br />More often than not these kinds of phrases will lead to a question from the person such as "what's your favorite" or, in the case of live performances, "how did it sound?" If it does, just give an honest but positive, and brief, answer. You can ask a question or two, but let them carry the conversation, if there is a lull, exit gracefully with a "nice talking to you" or whatever.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
