Well... Since there's such a booze going on...

Dmitry Pevtsov

Extremely pleasant, well-mannered, polite. Gentleman. It so happened that we found ourselves at the same table at a charity event. The food was “at the expense of the customer,” but the alcohol was at the expense of the guests. Dmitry wanted wine, ordered a bottle, and offered it to everyone at the table. Me and another girl decided to join. In the end, Dmitry didn’t want us to split the bill.

It’s funny that my friend at the same “type of party” ended up at the same table with Porechenkov. Porechenkov and his friend ordered a bottle of cognac and drank it for two, without offering it to anyone. And in general they behaved like some crazy stars. Pevtsov had an interesting conversation. Not stupid. Well read. Sincerely interested in the interlocutor.

Alexander Domogarov

I, like all the girls in the 90s, was impressed by Pasha Gorin and Comte de Bussy. Then I read a lot about drunkenness, fights with women, star fever. And when I found out that I would be at the same table with Domogarov, I internally bristled. And I decided that I wouldn’t look into his mouth, we are all equal there, he needs it too, so - screw you, Alexander. I don't care about your worn-out face now.

I don’t know what played its role. Either my emphasis was businesslike, or it was all “lies and slander,” but he turned out to be very pleasant. Yes, alas, even then (it was 2011) it was very shabby. But he behaved politely, listened respectfully, and said far from stupid things. After the event, he gave me and my colleague bouquets, which were brought to him (and I read that he never gives them away even to fellow actresses, he takes all the flowers for himself).

True, my colleague told me that, in her opinion, I took a demonstratively cold position right from the doorway and he obviously wanted to melt the hearts of the “ladies present.” Well, he succeeded, he is a really good actor and very charming when he needs to be.

Sergey Makovetsky

I left an ambivalent impression. On the one hand, it is clear that he is smart, talented, and well-educated. But he is very detached, as if he was “saving energy”: he went into “standby mode” and tried not to engage in communication. But he has a very pleasant and cheerful wife.

Valery Leontyev

A very good memory.

I was a teenage girl when I ended up at his dacha (the same one where Pugacheva filmed her “Christmas Meetings”). In 1996, we were traveling from abroad, missed the connection, and were given plane tickets in 2 days (and even then with a fight). And my mother called her Moscow friend (who was then common-law wife Leontyeva - no, he’s not gay, he’s “for girls” anyway) and asked to come to her (we were already almost “empty” of money after the trip, and she, we knew, didn’t live at home anyway). So she came for us and said “why do you need to go to this closed, dusty apartment, let’s go to the dacha, Valera is all for it.” And so he hosted us for almost 2 days. And he was a very, very, very good host. I remember, I was also struck by his bathroom (very beautiful!) and the huge number of bottles of his cosmetics: perfumes, lotions, various creams.

And he cooked very tasty.

In a word, he played the play “a big star hosting modest provincials” to the best of his ability. I remember that he communicated normally, and he, his wife and my mother talked for a long, long time “about everything in the world.”

Mom is still surprised how the image of “a man in a fishnet and tight pants” can belong to such a normal, courageous man - he carried our suitcases and chopped firewood. And there was no mannerisms about him.

Sergey Shnurov and Oksana Akinshina

Stuck in the same business lounge many, many years ago.

He's a cool goofball. She... is a harmful little "star". She had a conceit that was simply unrealistic. And Sergei is a quiet, drunk, but very ironic henpecked man.

I fully believe that this Motya spins them as she wants. It is clear from him that a woman with a strong character is his ideal. Akinshina’s character is clearly strong. But at the same time, I repeat, terribly unpleasant. This was even before “Hipsters”. In short, she looked at everyone the wrong way and irritated everyone terribly with her comments. Everyone was annoyed and everyone was worried that flights were being delayed. Moreover, there was no such star “imposing” in her, only a desire to be noticed and recognized as a “big shot”.

Vladimir Shakhrin and Vladimir Begunov

I live in Ekb, it’s not difficult to meet them here. Always positive, modest people in principle. Begunov likes the attention a little more. No stardom (however, we don’t like all this here; if you want to be a “big star”, go to Moscow; if you live in the Urals, be like everyone else).

But they are really good and simple people. And they will smile from the heart and help you push your bag onto the table.

Begunov still has a cheerful son. I found myself in the same company with him, everyone was joking about him that he was “the son of Laima Vaikule,” he was sweetly kicking ass. Later I found out whose son he was.

Evgeniy Roizman

Well, it’s not difficult to see him in Ekb either. My personal opinion is that he is insincere. That's all. I see how he “turns on” his famous charm. When he turned it on me, it was like waves of heat were passing through you. But this is a hassle, it needs to be thrown off) My friend comes into contact with him at work all the time. He says that he regularly, in order, apparently, “not to stagnate,” turns on this charisma-shmarism to all women... All Moscow journalists (and especially female journalists) leave him in complete delight.

But I’ve been watching Evgeniy Vadimovich for a long time, so I know that I need to “throw off the darkness” - it’s not even an impression - it’s just the knowledge of that xy from xy.

Stas Mikhailov

Charming. Peacock (mawl). But he is not very confident in himself when a slightly more or less “intelligent conversation” begins in front of him. In general, he is not well read, somewhat tongue-tied. But - a gentleman - he is the kind who will open the door for a woman. When he feels that he cannot turn the conversation “from a serious topic” to giggles, he runs away.

Tom Hiddleston

A modest man in a large oversized coat. I was sitting in a hotel lobby in London, looking out the window, drinking mineral water (or coffee?). I was waiting there for my friends. At first I didn’t understand why the American family next to me (my mother and two girls, about 19-20 years old, like “babies with milk”) were whispering and everyone was craning their necks. Then one of the girls went to get an autograph from this nondescript man. He signed it very nicely, took a photo with her, then the second sister came up. He took a photo again. He saw that everyone who was in the lobby was already staring at him, quickly put down the money and left. Well... Nothing like that. There was no magnetism. Thin, typical British. Why did he screw it up so quickly? No one was clearly going to throw themselves on his neck screaming “Tommy, I want a little one from you, and, by the way, what’s going on with the release of the new Avengers.”

Pierce Brosnan

I had a long and uncomfortable connection at Istanbul airport. And I entered the Star Alliance lounge. It's very cool there (like all Turkish Airlines lounges). At some point I noticed that in the distance, sitting very an interesting man- a traveler, but in an excellent jacket, as if he had just been ironed, with a good figure (you could see it even though he was sitting). Next to him was a rather large woman. But with beautiful hair. One of the staff approached them, the man turned his face to the light and it was HIM. Here I directly felt magnetism. Beautiful thoroughbred face. It is clear that he carries himself with great dignity (and does not slouch like Hiddleston). His woman is really such a huge tub. But also nice. They very soon went somewhere after this employee. What was left was a feeling of real physical beauty. Although that was a couple of years ago and he’s really getting old. He's a great guy, in general. Star.

Sean Bean

Epic disappointment. Also in London I sat in a caviar bar (this just sounds pretentious, in fact there are many such establishments and they are quite democratic) with a friend. At some point, we realized that some rumpled man in a coat was looking at us quite clearly. He even smiles. The friend went to the toilet and on the way back looked at her friend. This one comes and whispers to me: “Don’t fall, but this is Sean Bean.” A lot of things flashed through my head - Boromir, Royal Archer Sharpe, Lord Fenton... And I said in such a rather loud voice (and even turning to him): “Whaaat, Sean Bean?!”

And he sits and smiles quite greasy.

Still, the British rarely behave this way. And then there was a feeling that he was going to “ask for a phone number” right now. But then, fortunately for us, two women came in - and to him. One of them is his daughter (I later found a photo on the Internet), the other - I don’t know, apparently, her daughter’s girlfriend. We quickly paid and left.

Feeling of shabbyness and some kind of unwashedness. Well, what can you do - a guy from a working environment, that's what he is - a guy from a working environment.

Ksenia Sobchak

There was a story. We met with her and some other people on a common project. Ksenia was not a guest star there, but seemed to be “a participant in the process like everyone else.” In a word, business conversation. So she quickly began to determine who could be “hooked” here (i.e., who could be safely trolled). She clung to my friend and me. We were just off the plane, jeans, sweaters... She said something along the lines of “You girls should rest, change your clothes, wash... Otherwise you’re tired in sweaters.” And, clearly, with such a derogatory overtone... Friend mine couldn’t stand it and told her: “It’s not even comfortable. We’re wearing sweaters here... What’s the matter with you, Ksenia - you rested, got ready, dressed up in a sea buckthorn bucket costume...” Everyone laughed (because she really was in everything such ocher-sea buckthorn). And after that she didn’t show her teeth anymore. Moreover, she spoke competently and to the point. From which I conclude that although she is an opportunist, she is not a fool, she knows how to roll back when she senses strength, she needs to be shown boundaries - and she respects them. Everyone in that community spoke of her in exactly this way: fantastic instincts, not very sincere, but not a fool. Although not self-confident (I would confident man looking for someone to hook?). Still well read. I quoted either Tvardovsky or Shalamov smoothly *I was already falling asleep from the plane towards the end, so I don’t remember the details*

Joanne Collins

Oh, this is complete delight. Charming, well-groomed, beautiful (even though she’s a hell of a lot older). It is clear that he holds himself with a tight rein. I saw her again in London, at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. It doesn’t seem to require attention to itself, but you can immediately see that it’s an old-school star. Posture, figure - everything is with her. She was not dressed in a modern way, she was too “patched”, but she had a very pleasant smile, her makeup was neat. The hair doesn’t feel like my own. Apparently it's a wig. Too thick. She looked at everyone favorably. This is the only person I wanted to ask for an autograph. And she asked. And I received it. And I’m very pleased with myself. She's a beauty - she's still a beauty at 70-something.

She asked me: “Should you sign ‘from Alexis’ or ‘from Joan’ - I said ‘from Joan’.”

Liya Akhedzhakova

Tired little woman. I looked out the window the entire flight. She shuddered when the flight attendants addressed her. I myself was sitting in economy, but my more senior colleague, who was flying on business, told me this. However, I walked through the business when boarding - and noticed that she seemed to have her eyes glued to the window. So it flew all the way to Yekaterinburg. Without looking at anyone.

Vladimir Zeldin

I saw him in Moscow at an exhibition in 2004.

He was already about 90, but his posture, the position of his head - it was clear that he was in control. Beautiful person.

And one more meeting - Inga Ilm (Masha Startseva)

This also happened in the 90s, also with friends in Moscow. There was such an interesting, very diverse company. And Inga Ilm came there. Well, in general, you should have immediately said “The sun has risen, fall on your face.” She looked arrogantly, congratulated the owners, talked only about herself, about abroad, where she had just arrived from and where she studied acting. Then she left. What was it? For what? I was pretty too adolescence, but why destroy the bright image like this? Many people had the same feeling, as expressed by one of those present: “Like, it would be better if I had not met her - I would have retained teenage post-pubescent fantasies...”.

Everything in your life is wonderful, except for one annoying circumstance - your permanent crush on a media personality? Then this article has come to you at the right place! Despite the seeming inaccessibility of your idol, it is quite possible to get to know him, because all the stars are ordinary people, which means they go to stylists, dentists, and even shopping. And if your cards turn out particularly well, you can count on something more... The main thing is to know the places. Read on for a guide on how to meet a star.

Many people dream of meeting an idol and becoming close and dear to him, but only a few succeed. Maybe mission impossible? But no! Everything is easier than you think!

Action plan

To conquer a star, you just need to know 5 rules:

1. While on tour, artists get bored crowds of enthusiastic fans and tons of love letters. Be different from others! Treat your idol like an ordinary guy next door (which, by the way, is what he is).

2. The stars are used to it to the fact that any of their wishes is fulfilled immediately. Imagine that you want coffee. You will not treat the coffee maker with tenderness and trepidation, but will simply use it out of habit... Hence the conclusion: do not sacrifice yourself for the sake of an idol.

3. The artists have already been tortured scandalous questions and gossip. Talking to famous person, for example, on the topic of touring, ask which city surprised him with its architecture, and not how many novels he managed to have.

4. Don't try to be cool. what you really are. Firstly, from the outside it looks funny, and secondly, the stars have already had enough of arrogant girls, and, as it turns out, no one likes them.

5. If you want to conquer a star just for the sake of becoming famous and showing off against her background, then your attempts are doomed to failure in advance. Artists especially feel insincerity and falsehood.

Just the facts

73% of popular artists are friends and date girls who have nothing to do with show business, and only 27% start relationships with colleagues on stage. But 10% of these romances last less than a year. Therefore, your chances of becoming the chosen one of your favorite artist are not as small as it might seem from the outside.

Where do stars meet?

You'll definitely be lucky here:

* On the set of TV shows
Spectators from the street are often invited to programs with stars. There you will definitely cross paths with the artist - there is one entrance and exit for everyone.

* In an Aeroport
The star, bored in the waiting room, will be happy to chat with you a couple of hours before boarding.

*In the production center

*At the film premiere
You will have to overpay for an entrance ticket to the premiere show, but you will meet a lot of celebrities there! If you make a fuss, your place may end up next to your idol. That's it, it's in your hands!

Perfect option

- Hair: Contrary to stereotypes, 62% of artists like brunettes.
- Face: 91% of showmen vote for natural makeup and a modest smile.
- Breast: 56% like average sizes, 24% like small breasts.
- Belly: 80% of celebrities are “in love” with a flat and toned tummy.

Such unattainable, beautiful and alluring… stars. No, I'm not talking about those in heaven, but about Anya Chipovskaya(28) and Adam Levine(37), to whom I tried in vain to write to direct Instagram. Yes, you think: “What a fool, do celebrities respond to anyone?” And I will say: “They answer, and how!” And I’ll tell you a mind-blowing story that happened to my friend.

You, dear Peopletalker, know this friend very well. Her name is (15), she is one of the brightest heroines of our project “ New Generation" In general, one fine day Lisa wandered into the account Armie Hammer(29) (that sexy guy from " Agents of U.N.C.L.E.") and for some reason decided to write to him. Just.

In general, after two weeks on Lysin " Hello" a response came from the handsome actor. " Hello“Army writes to her. Yes, it was incredible, and we, the entire editorial team, carefully studied Instagram Hammer to make sure it's not fake! So, Lisa and Army started a conversation, from which we learned that he loves Moscow and Russian people. He said that I don’t answer everyone, but sometimes it gets boring. By the way, Hammer was polite and sweet, and asked how Lisa was doing (which completely drove her crazy).

How this correspondence will end is unknown. Maybe Army will invite Lisa to visit? We've already thought of them common Home, a lot of kids and a dog. Well, who knows? They are now " penpals" Inspired by Lisa's story, I decided to check how often fans get a chance to get a response from the star. And I wrote about a dozen messages to celebrities of various sizes.

I basically don’t know how to act unobtrusively, so my messages look like the ravings of a crazy fan who dreams of a like Dima Bilan(34) in your photo in Instagram. The results of the experiment are as follows: Anya Chipovskaya I didn’t know that I think she’s very beautiful, Vanya Urgant(38) he ignored my cheerful greeting, and Bilan will never remember that eight-year-old girl jumping in the stands of his concert back in 2006.

Moreover, Egor Creed(21) I couldn’t even take, as they say, “ to show off». I could really get into position! But after all, I had an argument with my friend. But I sent the most epic message Adam Levine, quoting a line from his own song: “ I'm still looking for a map that leads to you...» Intriguing? Translated into Russian, this is more reminiscent of an anonymous message from a maniac, but if Adam ever reads it, I hope he will understand me correctly.

The moral of this story is: Either I'm not as good as Lisa, or it's all about Army. After all, stars are also different. And it’s so nice that sometimes they are very humane.

WikiHow works like a wiki, which means that many of our articles are written by multiple authors. This article was produced by 57 people, including anonymously, to edit and improve it.

Imagine: you're walking down the street and suddenly you see your favorite celebrity walking towards you! How will you behave? How do you act as a fan? How do you ask him/her for an autograph? Just read on!

Note: This article assumes that you are meeting a celebrity casually and not at a planned event such as a meeting or gathering.

Steps

Walk up to him or her nonchalantly. Stay calm. Control your behavior and don't start shouting. You might scare the person away. Just because he's a celebrity doesn't mean he enjoys hearing fans scream in his face. However, don't try to act too suspicious.

Try to make eye contact and smile. This will give you confidence and you will be able to overcome your nervousness. This will make your presence known and let the celebrity know, "Hey, I'm here and I'm interested!" Don't forget to smile; it will make you seem friendly and approachable. However, don't smile too long so as not to confuse them.

Wait for a response signal. If he/she responds to you with a similar nonverbal gesture, it is your turn to say, “Hey, how are you?” or something similar. If he/she ignores you, better leave. He/she probably doesn't want to be disturbed. If they respond, start a conversation.

Talk about something simple. Try talking about simple everyday things that you would talk about with anyone else. Make sure your conversation is meaningful and not just chit-chat. Don't talk about the weather or anything boring.

Keep your communication brief. They don't have time for the world, and even if they love their fans, they probably won't be very interested in hearing your life story. Talk for a couple of minutes and then end the conversation. If you've been preparing to meet a celebrity, you may have a backup topic of conversation in store, so don't panic, you know what to say. If you really idolize this person, keep your conversations short but not boring. Try to do something he'll remember, keeping in mind that he probably sees hundreds of fans a day.

Make sure you end the conversation, not she/he. Don't talk for a long time if he/she doesn't show interest. For example: "It was very nice talking to you, but I have to go. Could you autograph this little piece of paper for me?"

Don't forget to thank them. If he/she is waiting, say "Thank you" and leave with a wave.

Don't be angry if they don't give you their autograph. If he/she refuses, say, "Well, thank you. I'm very glad to meet you. Have a good day"It's always better to end with gratitude.

1. Don't ask for a phone number or address. They will most likely refuse. They may feel that this is an invasion of privacy and it will make the situation awkward.

   • Be polite and respectful.
   • If he/she praises you, say thank you. Don't be impudent and don't be vain.
   • Treat him as you would treat any other person you meet in public. We all people.
   • Don't talk like a journalist. Talk as if you were talking to your friend. They don't want to be interrogated. If you are a journalist, don't write about your everyday, carefree conversation in public. It's not your job to write about random encounters.
   • Some people don't like to talk about their work unless it's something to be proud of, so keep the conversation general.
   • Get to know him/her, but don't insist. Try talking to them about their career. Set general issues like "How did you become a professional?" or tell them how much you like him/her.
   • Remember: even if we know their names and a bunch of other trivial information about them, we don't know them! Don't expect him to act according to your expectations and impressions of him based only on public information, which may not be accurate at all.
   • If you're wondering where to go to talk to a celebrity or two, (maybe, if you're lucky, more!), look on sites like Stickam, MySpace, or search the Internet and see if a celebrity is going somewhere for interviews at shows, autograph signings, or anything like that. You can also listen to the radio to find out if a celebrity has a concert where he/she is singing, as some radio stations tell you where you can meet celebrities.

   Warnings

   • Remember the golden rule: treat others the way you would like to be treated.
   • Do not Cry.
   • Don't stalk him/her.
   • Never approach a celebrity in a restaurant or bar while he is eating, especially if he is not alone.
   • Don't invite a bunch of your friends to come and meet the celebrity; it will just be inconvenient.
   • If they're busy, it's probably best to just let them go and thank them for their time. Many people have celebrities they want to meet for fun, but only a few get the chance!
   • Be aware of those who claim to be celebrities. Look for things that actually say this is an official celebrity page. Majority official pages have a sign that says it's official. There are photos that are not easy to find on the Internet, and video and/or audio about them.
   • You should also pay attention to the city you are in. In some countries, when a celebrity is in big city, you can accidentally meet her without a strong reaction from others, even if it is Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, or Justin Bieber. Thus, a normal conversation like you would have with your friend will be enough, in such cities it is not easy to attract large crowds; but in small towns, a celebrity may be received quite warmly and attract more interest from others. However, anything can happen, so prepare accordingly. You may even meet stars who really treat you like royalty. a large number fans in Europe but unknown in Australia or vice versa. On occasion, just talk to them.
   • Don't discuss gossip and rumors.
   • Do not turn on the camera. This is not a photo shoot. How would you feel if someone was constantly filming you for no apparent reason?
   • Never ask about his personal life.

Near good man you’ll rub like a copper penny on silver, and then you’ll sell for two kopecks.

Maksim Gorky

People look not only at your achievements, but also at your surroundings. “Tell me who your friends are” is a timeless principle for assessing a personal brand. But if you are just at the start of your journey, how to start meeting famous people?

Check out announcements of upcoming events. Many exhibitions and openings of urban spaces are usually available to the general public. For example, at the opening of New Holland several years ago in St. Petersburg, citizens could meet Roman Abramovich. You may accidentally find yourself near a celebrity, for example on an airplane or a restaurant, or you may deliberately build a strategy. One way or another, you need to be ready for this meeting at any moment. It's not as difficult as it might seem.

Many celebrities generally disavow the stigma of popularity - and you can play on this. Treat communication without unnecessary aspiration and pathos. The happiest moment for a celebrity is when no one recognizes her in everyday life.

So, I’ll tell you how to meet famous people.

5 rules for dating celebrities

1. Don't steal popularity

Don't ask for anything, no free stamps, no telephone numbers. If you want to continue communication, do not ask for autographs or selfies together. It looks like you want to take a bite out of the fame. Use the first minutes of meeting to show that you.

2. Be curious

If you are dating opera singer, under no circumstances say that you also sang in the school choir. This will devalue the achievements of your counterpart. On the contrary, show that you understand little about this. People like to share knowledge.

3. Take your time

Imagine a Ferris wheel. It moves without stopping, and in order to ride, you need to enter the vacated booth on time. It’s the same in conversation: catch pauses to organically integrate into the conversation. Perhaps the person will notice you himself and with his glance will show his readiness to communicate. It is ideal if you give a comment on some thought you heard. Know how to listen, people love to talk about themselves. Ask questions.

4. Be yourself

Celebrities are the same people, they have old friends and classmates. They look perfect for you, but they themselves are just as imperfect as you. role. People with great social experience They always see the pretense. Share your real world: everyone has interesting stories. Then you will have a great chance to win the person over.

5. Respect boundaries

Do not violate personal space, do not come closer than 1 meter. If this is your first acquaintance, then watch your counterpart’s reaction. Leave immediately when you feel your interest waning; it’s better to come back later. This will show respect for the person's time.

How to plan an effective introduction

If you purposefully want to meet a famous person, here are three main steps.

Preparation

Be very specific. Think about how you can be useful, but don't act like a salesman. Take the time to find out as much information as possible about the person. You can always see the latest posts on social networks, announcements of events where a celebrity is participating. This way you can prepare interesting questions, and not the banal “How did you study at school?”

Acquaintance

If you go to and want to meet a famous person there, then the best way is to find your own “shuttle” that will take you to the desired star. Think about whether there is someone who could introduce you to the person you are interested in? This will be a warm acquaintance, and not “Excuse me, can I meet you?” Perhaps the famous rule of seven handshakes will work.

Consolidation

The day after the meeting, send the person a message on social media with a short greeting and refer to the meeting the day before. The letter can be supplemented, for example, with a fresh thought in the context of your conversation to trigger further dialogue. Even if the messages are filtered by an assistant, there is a high chance that he will skip your message “higher”, seeing that you already know each other.

Famous people are often deprived of simple everyday life and communication, so they are happy to allow new people into their circle. The main thing is that you understand how you can be interesting and useful, and be honest with yourself.
