Living in LA you're bound to bump into celebrities now and then... me, myself, I perform stand-up comedy at every chance I get and I attend as many shows as I can, so I run into celebrities quite often. Usually, I don't recognize them at all, even when they are introduced to me... It's bad I know, but on TV they look different... and you don't think you'll ever see them out in public! They're supposed to hide (LOL) For example I met that Payton Pantierre girl that's in a million commercials and I think plays in Hero... had NO IDEA who she was...until i saw her in a commercial when i got home...
Met Chris Spencer, only knew of him through my mentor, David Arnold, and next thing you know I'm watchin' Snoops Fatherhood and here's his ass performing!
Another time, I met Kevin Hart, and as horrible as this sounds, as I should be on my comedy game and know big timers like him, I had no clue who he was or that he was as "famous" as he is... I literally sat beside him at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood and discussed comedy, things I liked, what I wanted... like he was some "Average Joe" tryin' to make it in the game (and by the way I admire his humbleness and genuine personality) To my surprise... he was a somebody and a BIG somebody.. well little somebody ;) haha but you know what I mean... i got home and I'm laying in bed and all of the sudden there he is on my TV.... so I instantly jumped on IMDb and searched him... to my surprise, here come the credits... "Along Came Polly" ...this man was just sitting by me... He was in "40 year old virgin"!...i was just speaking to him...the list goes on and on...meanwhile, my eyes are going back and forth between the tv and the computer... then i start remembering the stupid jokes I made... oh and not to mention the critique my big mouth gave him... wow.. im an idiot... but I WAS JUST SITTING NEXT TO HIM... and all of the sudden... there you have it... STAR STRUCK IN BED!
