People Meeting Celebrities and Living Their Best Life!

Celebrities can sometimes seem otherworldly, almost like they’re gods. Unfortunately, we’ve all heard of stories that reveal the ugly side of some celebrities. Whether it’s rude to the waiter, aggressively refusing a photo, or simply having a bad attitude, it’s quite disappointing to know that someone we perhaps idolize is actually a jerk. Fortunately, some people have been lucky enough to meet celebrities who turned out to be pretty awesome! Here are some stories of people meeting celebrities that were nothing but pleasant.

Sometimes you’ll meet a celebrity without even realizing it. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what happened to one Redditor’s mom, who accidentally yelled at Pierce Brosnan — and didn’t regret it!

Hangry (hungry + angry) in line, user XANA12345’s mother was about to order until a guy cut in front and interrupted her. She then snapped and told him to head to the back of the line and wait for his turn. When she got her food and went to sit with the family, her husband informed her, in shock, that she had just yelled at Pierce Brosnan. The best part is she said, “Well he shouldn’t have tried to cut me!”
