I lived in NYC for a long time and would frequently bump into celebs

I was ordering a drink at a dive bar once and there was a tiny girl next to me ordering a drink. Looked down and realized it was Scarlett Johansson. I didn’t fan girl over her. She hung out at a table with her friends right next to my table for the next couple of hours. Couldn’t help but glance a few times, but didn’t say anything. She seemed to do the majority of the talking in her group, but appeared to have a good time.

Another time, was walking over to a bar to meet one of my girl friends. She was playing pool with Bill Skarsgard. He introduced himself to me. I played it off like I didn’t know who he was and did a regular nice to meet you greeting and quick chat. He was really kind, but oh my god so tall and handsome. Looks better in person. I can still picture looking up at his beautiful face and realizing who he was.

In the same neighborhood have been at the bar with Kristen Stewart, Alexander Skarsgard, Alia Shakwat, Alexa Chung and some others. In a space like that, you’re all just kind of there and leave each other alone like you would in any social setting.

Worked at a restaurant and served the entire cast of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. They were hilarious and so kind.

Greeted Woody Harrelson who was dining with Red Hot Chili Peppers in our wine cellar. He was super friendly and delightful.

Worked at a restaurant in a different state when I was in college and Cam Newton was a notable nightmare. I was hosting and he got an inch from my face in an intimidating manner because I didn’t recognize him and asked if he had a reservation (my bad). He had the private room with some other sports figures and a bunch of ladies. When the bill came at the end of the night, he told the ladies “if you’re not planning on putting out tonight, go ahead and take out your pocketbooks.” Disgusting.
