That’s what I always wonder, too. Like the Tig Notaro bit about Taylor Dayne. “I don’t do that anymore.” So funny when the story is told later, but so anticlimactic for a fan.

I always think I will be calm, cool, and collected around celebrities. But since I’ve so rarely ever even SEEN a celebrity, I have no idea how I will actually be. I imagine that I would want to tell someone how much I admire their work, but I know they hear it all the time. Does it become disingenuous at some point? Do they become numb to it?
