Hitting on Famous People

Okay, my bad.
At first I wrote out this post in response to the OP as if she was there as an appearance. And I thought, if it is her, this chick has sold over 30 million records, is a credible artist, and is arguably the most popular female artist in the world and she's going to show up at someone's wedding?

But I re-read the post and now I take it as she's just going to be there, like as a guest or something, not as hired music.

So I'm still not sure which one you mean, but I think you mean she's just a guest like everyone else?
God, maybe I'm just dull. But if that's the case, definitely just act normal and be funny, witty, endearing but not overbearing and desparate, like with almost any other chick.





and fwiw I think she's a total babe

Read the thread again, dude. It's already been established that it's Melissa Etheridge.

[Dan BRIGHT]

just pretend you dont know about them or recognize them and act like a cocky [censored] that uses women for sex.

It is about Blarg talking out of his ass for the millionth time. Errr, I mean haven't you figured it out by now, Blarg knows everything.

[NT!]

i was just trying to establish whether blarg had successfully wet his piece in any big-name snatch. if he had, i'd read it. otherwise, i don't really care about picking up famous chicks, i've got a normal one that i'm pretty happy with.

OP,

FYI, Melissa Ethridge is gay.

[Rogue5]

haha, is she legal?

I can't believe you correctly picked Mellissa Etheridge so quickly. I'm hoping to sneak into no-man's-land.

This is a general advice situation, it doesn't matter who the person is, just that they are famous enough to require (I am assuming) a different appproach.

Oh, and yeah she's a guest (went to HS with the bride (my cousin) and groom), not a performer.

I don't think the "hi, so what's your name?" is going to work, because I'm sure everyone else there is going to be going all fanboy, so the idea that I don't know her will probably not be believable (or would that be surprising/intriguing, (as in, "wow, a guy without any preconceptions of me") I mean I can always play it off that I'm from New Hampshire, and we just got the internets).

I think the current projects discussion is a good one, she has probably talked about her past a million times, but is probably more passionate about the things she is planning to do.

I guess the idea of finding something via fan sites seems like it could work, but seems a little stalkerish to me... oh well, I'll probably get over it.

You obviously don't have a chance. Just give up.

on a serious note, i think your best bet would be to ignore anything about her music, fame, or that whole bit. treat her like you would treat any other chick you like.
