Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about people that met celebs before they had their big breaks. Funny to see how fame can change some people, while others maintain that wholesome authenticity they were known for when growing up.

Celebrity encounters can be a magical time where people cross paths with their heroes, and those heroes actually kind of live up to the hype. Other times though, it's a moment when one realizes that celebrities (even the "heroic ones") are just like any other human being. Often full of emotions, complications, thoughts, etc. If anything, some of those celebs might just be hurting for an opportunity to bond with another human being on a basic human being level, with no society enforced roles being played.
When celebs banded together to create a video of them singing "Imagine", we don't imagine that this is how they thought the reception of the video would go. Many folks on Twitter were quick to poke fun at the video, and ask the celebs for money, instead of a star-studded song performance. Additionally, the parodies started popping up, and oh, they are brilliant.
Comedian Bert Kreischer started up a Twitter thread of people sharing the ways they ended up getting blocked by celebrities on Twitter. Some instances seem like the celebrities couldn't have had less of a sense of humor. Maybe they just get tired of the constant online trolling at a certain point though.

What a wonderfully wholesome moment. Apparently the old woman is a famous artist named Ellen Grossman as well!
These fans were able to meet their celebrities, and learn that just cause you're famous, that doesn't mean you can't be a nice person too! Sometimes we get so caught up in idolizing these worldwide celebrities, that we forget, they're just like us in a lot of ways. And hopefully one of those similarities is a kindness to respectful strangers.
It started with a post about all the strange and dumb ways people create facebook events to make fun of a peculiar art installation in Chicago casually referred to as "The Bean." It ended with a tale of millionaires, artist drama, backstabbing, and the fight over the least reflective substance in the world.
August 8th is International Cat Day which basically just means it's an entire day dedicated to cats. We're not quite sure how that's different from any other day of the year, but we'll use any excuse to celebrate!
Who's your favorite "internet cat"? Did they make the list?

This is a segment called I don't know the name of this color! Those shoes aren't orange really, or peach, or really any color I can name (this offends my sensibilities even further.) So please help me, dear readers and tell me what color those hideous shoes are.

When ZZ Top sang about legs, I don't think this is what they had in mind. Though I'll no longer be able to think of anything else.
