Chevy Chase was NOT in a good mood when I met him… or from what I’ve heard, he never is. Yikes!

At Comic-Con, William Shatner seemed less than thrilled to meet a 12-year-old fan who saved up their own money. Took a little prodding before he even acknowledged the kid. Oof.
My cousin worked on Morbius and says Jared Leto was super rude to the crew and even demanded script rewrites. Drama, right?
Met Chappell Roan before she was famous and told her I loved her performance. She just scoffed and gave zero smiles. Rude alert!
Ariana Grande actually yelled at my brother when he was a custodian at Disney. Not cool, Ari.
Met NSYNC at age 9. Justin was rude, which sucked since he was my fave. But the rest, especially Lance and Chris, were total sweethearts.
Asked Danica to sign my cast. She looked me up and down like, nah, and kept walking. I was 11. Not cool, Danica.
Lana Del Rey told a super sweet person, "I don't like your energy," mid-compliments. Yep, that happened. Heartbreaker Lana!
My mom worked the toll booth and greeted Warren Beatty like any normal person. He got mad and said, "Don't you know who I am?" Mom just said she knew he was an actor, just forgot the name. Priceless.
Paid $300 to meet Millie Bobby Brown. She said hi to the person before me and after me, but totally ignored me. Felt like a personal snub. Ouch!
Worked as a PA on Madame Web and saw Sydney Sweeney film TikToks outside her trailer. The job was rough but at least I got to pet Dakota Johnson's dog. Silver linings!
Keira Knightley wasn’t rude, just super dismissive. Came to my work with her kids and basically waved me off every time I spoke to her. Mom mode, probably.
Worked at an LA restaurant frequented by celebs. Chelsea Peretti from Brooklyn 999 was hands down the rudest. Meanwhile, stars like Jennifer Aniston and Leonardo DiCaprio were super nice. Funny how that works!
If you’ve worked backstage at the Grand Ole Opry, you’ve heard - Carrie Underwood’s not the nicest. That’s the word on the street!

My top two: First time I met Gerard Butler, rude. Second time? Also rude. Consistency is key, I guess.
I work at the airport. 2 Chainz’s bodyguard told fans to look the other way just for glancing. Talk about serious vibes!
Worked as an extra on The OC. Mischa Barton flipped out about extras walking nearby and even made everyone leave the scene while she tried to cry for hours. Drama queen alert.
Met MGK at a gas station years ago. I just said hi and said I liked his music, and he was like, "I'm literally skateboarding." So rude!
When it comes to rudeness, Jennifer Lopez takes the crown. At least according to this witness!

Walked past Beyoncé and Jay Z once and they were not friendly. Didn’t interact though, so maybe just vibes.
Will Ferrell scared my daughter when he was on a mean phone call during a film shoot but then was really nice once he put the phone down. Odd combo!
Paul McCartney used to be cool but apparently, after getting famous, he stopped playing Roblox. Bad vibes.
