I've learned to treat celebrities as equals and just kind of meet them and admire their work, but I definitely could not breathe when I met Johnny Depp and James Franco.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always had a lot of ambivalence about fame and celebrity.
At my first Golden Globes, I met people I was very much enamored by: Julianne Moore, Meryl Streep, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. It was surreal to see them in person.
I'm actually one of the more reluctant celebrities you will ever meet.
Celebrities meet a lot of people and we just can't maintain them all in our fuddled brains.
Celebrities are just like us and like any of your friends. I love working with people.
I developed a deep sadness for celebrities, a pity that they often are caught in a plastic world that runs too hard and too fast, and that many times that world means destroyed relationships with everyone they know and love.
It's funny, because there are so many stereotypes out there about actors and movie stars in general, but I've had a great opportunity to meet a lot of them, and maybe it's just because they don't behave that way around me, but I rarely see that kind of abuse of power.
I've met Nicole Kidman, Elton John, loads of people.
People think that as a celebrity, you have to have this sort of mystique about you, but I'm probably the realest person you'll ever meet.
I still get excited about meeting celebrities, because I don't think I'm a celebrity myself.
