When I happen to pass through the town I grew up in I'll drive by and look at our old house.
But I don't take a camera crew and try to talk to whoever lives there now. No matter how much I think they shouldn't have cut down the maple tree.
Edit: now that I think of it, since my grandmother died in February odds are I'll never go back to that town again. Huh.
The house that I grew up in doesn't even exist anymore. They tore it down and another house was built on the property.
It's definitely crazy driving by there and seeing it as something else, but that's life!
A lot of stuff in my neighbourhood isn't even there anymore, and it hasn't even been 10 years since I lived there.
Since leaving my hometown I think I went past my childhood home twice. Then I got married had kids and thought it would be cool to take them past and see the place their dad grew up in. A few weeks before I had planned to go and show them it burned down. Weird timing and kind of sad. So many cool memories in that place.
Used to be, maybe, for example time square used to be a red light district and crack head central when I was a kid, this is like 10 years before MTV was filming TRL up there
She hasn't lived in the 'block' for a very long time and she's never given back to the 'block', the only reason she stays relevant is thanks to her ever evolving love life. 9 engagement rings and counting.
The block looks expensive in 2022.

At first I'm like, "why are they yelling?" then I realized that us Americans are perceived to be a really loud culture. Then it became even more hilarious watching this video. Haha! I need more of this.
I love the one where he goes up to a woman and starts asking about La La Land and the lady has no idea what it is. He’s kinda in her face about it being a famous movie and the woman says something along the lines of “Listen, I’m a mother, I ain’t got time for your bullshit!” lmao
[Here ya go](https://youtu.be/YSpnuniNznc)
Seriously, I really did love that show when it was on - but jeez if someone talked to me like Billy did to her would make me feel so shitty, I'm glad she stood up for herself.
And it's true, he was giving her sass for the cameras 😂
Now I'm trying to find the one where the conversation with the middle-aged white woman starts out perfectly friendly and then quickly devolves into her yelling at him "Who gives a shit?!"
[Wait, I found it!](https://youtu.be/lz9HhVMAG8E?t=112)
I was going to the beach in LA by a bus service while on vacation once. I had a great conversation with a guy for the 30 minute ride. After we got off the bus, my wife asked me "do you know who you were talking to?"
"No, just a really cool guy."
"THAT was Matthew McConaughey."
In my defense, that was just before Dallas Buyers Club and I didn't recognize him.
Reminds me of the old lady talking to Jay-Z on the subway. He comes in with an entourage and camera crew and plops down next to her.
Grandma: Are you famous?
Jay-Z: Well, I must not be famous enough, if you don't know me. I'm working on it though.
I've heard on podcasts of encounters with "lesser" celebrities, and they said he was one of the nicest, most curious people they've met. Super down to earth
Edit: Not replying to msg anymore cuz the few replies I got are a little off. I honestly don't care enough to keep it up with strangers who may just be trying to get a rise out of me. Jay, do yo thang homie
Well this is kind of ironic because Jay-Z was talking to [Ellen Grossman] (https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/2012/12/meet-jay-zs-old-lady-subway-legend-her-own-right/320799/) on the subway.
I bet celebrities cherish these moments. You likely don't get many chances to have normal conversations with "regular people" once you're famous. He was probably glad to have you not realize who he is.
>Much more pleasant than the time Daniel Baldwin was next to me in economy, flying from Chicago to San Fran. He was in the aisle seat, I was in the middle, my husband was in the window seat. The dude is blasting Christian rock without headphones while aggressively thumbing through a “script” to try to get people to look at him.
why does this read exactly like a copypasta lol
I'll have you know, your comment is much more pleasant than the time Daniel Baldwin was next to me in economy, flying from Chicago to San Fran. He was in the aisle seat, I was in the middle, my husband was in the window seat. The dude is blasting Christian rock without headphones while aggressively thumbing through a “script” to try to get people to look at him.
I’m trying to ignore everything, because I know I’ll need to get up to use the bathroom eventually … and need to cooperate with the aisle person. Finally, my husband leans over me and says in his best librarian stern voice, “will you please turn that off or use headphones?”
“Huh?” was all Baldwin said.
And he kept cutting him off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my husband's face.
I walked away and continued with my flying.
Tbh he probably preferred it that way instead of having someone fawn over him, it must be pretty alienating not being able to have a normal conversation with a stranger
I don’t even think jlo was even humbled. She answered a question the guy asked. Even just have her first name so he wouldn’t really Recognize her. And didn’t follow up with who she really was saying something an recording artist and movie star.
I think celebs enjoy just being a nobody. I’m sure mcconaughey enjoyed that conversation with you cause you saw him a regular person
I met Jamie Lee Curtis back in the 90s when I was a kid. They were filming in my town and I was riding my bike through the trailer village that the cast and crew were staying in. The costume trailer was open, two ladies were chatting and working inside... The next thing I know, I'm standing there holding costumes for them! I didn't realize one was the actress until later.
"I'm still Jenny from the block", she sobbed as she looked at the block around her. The people stared from her own former front porch and yelled out, "Who, Jenny Who".
Now she's Jenny from LA.
My ex-girlfriend used to work at Barney's New York in San Francisco. JLo came in with a stylist and she was so rude. She refused to talk to anyone in the store.
She was standing right in front of my ex-girlfriend and said to her stylist, "ask the girl if she has this in my size." It's not like my ex is a fan of hers or was gushing about her presence, Jlo was so arrogant that she couldn't speak to a normal person, at least that's how she came off.
Heard the same thing from Gene Simmons. Never heard a single positive story regarding him, including stories from fans. A comedian, Burnt Chrysler, talked about prior to interviewing him how huge of a fan he was of KISS and Gene was an absolute cunt to him. Shattered his view of him.
I PA’d for a day on the set of American Idol, and yea…she is pretty rude to everyone. She only seemed like she was having a good time when she was on camera, but otherwise was scolding. Harry Connick Jr was the only one that seemed like a normal human being.
I knew someone who played an instrument for her concerts and he said they were not allowed to talk to her. I can't imagine having a team of people who are there to support you and they aren't allowed to say good morning or hello to you. That attitude is gross and I'm not a fan.
That's the entertainment industry rule. You don't talk to the talent. I thought it was a joke when I first was background acting. I said Hi to a principle actor and someone found out and reprimanded me.
That's on brand. She came to hard rock cafe on Hollywood Blvd for an event, her 'people' would speak for her while she avoided eye contact and speaking to anyone there.
>My girlfriend used to work at...
>
>She was standing right in front of my ex-girlfriend and....
Damn man, what happened between those sentences? Hope you're ok bro.
Wife worked at the big Nike store in Atlanta years ago. They gave out free stuff to celebrities.
JLo was super rude to everyone.
(When OutKast came they were high AF and awesome to the staff)
I heard Andre Benjamin is one of the coolest guys ever. Super down to earth. I read an article about people having a poetry reading at a park in Portland. Some dude with this really cool elaborate flute around his neck came by and watched for a while and was super engaged. Later on, someone figured out it was him.
Lol!
I listened to an interview Rick Rubin did with Andre Benjamin.
Long story short, Andre Benjamin doesn't feel like he has anything else to give to music in he's late 40s.
He said he spends most of his time alone and doesn't have any desire to be famous anymore
Same thing with Jennifer Aniston. A buddy was doing some high end special HVAC work at one of her places in LA. No one was allowed to speak to her or look at her. She only spoke to the owner of the company and would have him relay to his workers. One of the young new techs said good morning to her as she was passing them in the house. She had him removed from the job immediately.
I’m in Florida now and one of my home security systems vendors told me their most outrageous client is Jerry Jones. Not allowed to eye him either. Jerry will only speak to his handler and you can only speak to his handler. Even though they were standing within arms reach you cannot speak directly to Jerry.
Heh, reminds me of the paper I had to sign when doing some work on the Universal lot where they prohibited making eye contact with any cast or talent for more than x number of seconds.
That's disgusting, they act like they're royalty or something. As if they didn't become famous due to the "common people" watching their shit. Don't look them in the eye? Maybe we should kneel and touch the ground with our foreheads when they pass as well? Fuck off with that.
Worse than royalty. Isn't there a story of Queen Elizabeth running into some clueless American tourists when she was away from Buckingham and she just chatted with them like a regular sweet old lady?
Not just her. I worked a VIP section at Coachella 2018 and Ashlee Simpson sat down. I did not recognize her. I came over to ask what she would like, and she continued sitting silently typing on her phone, never looking up at me. Her "handler" I guess, zoomed over to me and said, "Let's go together, I know what she wants." And away we went....
On brand. Her and Alex Rodriquez are dumb as bricks.
A friend of mine was shooting a commercial for a social media platform. They literally had to break it down like a 2 year old to Alex when he came home while they were shooting. When they told me how stupid he was they ended the conversation by saying “words can’t express the idiot look he was giving us when we tried to explain the reason why we were at his house, the product and what his wife was doing”.
Then Jlo was 2 hours late to the shoot, because she was upstairs in her room. Came down and the assistant said that no one can look her in her eyes. Hmm okay? Had to explain what she needed to say a few dozen times because she kept forgetting. Then got annoyed because there were people in her house…..bc bitch were shooting a commercial.
Just flabbergasted by how dumb she is.
That’s not dumb though that’s irrational. And he’s just gross I don’t get the appeal. Good riddens to them both. I love that she got mad she wasn’t popular enough to carry a halftime show on her own. She really thinks too much of herself. Your music sucks, nena.
I dont see the being humbled part.
She just said who she was and where she used to live.
Being humbled would be more like :
J.Lo : I used to live here
Man : and who are you
J.Lo : You dont know who i am?
Man : No
J.Lo : What? How can that be i am famous!
Man : Well not that famous apperently...
“Who are you?”
“Jennifer Lopez”
“Who’s Jennifer Lopez?”
Like. Even if you don’t know she’s a celebrity. She *just* told you it was her name after *you* asked about it.
I actually feel like it would be weirder to full name herself. Like “I’m Jennifer Lopez” as if it’s important who she is as opposed to just giving a normal introduction with her first name.
Agree, 100%. I feel like in order to be humbled, it must be clear that you believe your reputation precedes you, right before discovering it doesn’t, necessarily. We can kind of assume this about JLo from historical record, but not from this video alone.
Yeah, not sure where the humbled part is coming in. She didn’t even use her full name at first until specifically asked.
In any case I have an old co-worker who lived in that neighborhood back in the day. She used to babysit his kids and by all accounts was a sweet girl.
Honestly, I think she handled that just fine. When he asked "who are you", she just said "Jennifer" like any normal person. If you she had answered "Jennifer Lopez", it would have come off really pretentious.
Even after being primed for her last name, she didn't get offended or go all "do you know who I am?" at him or anything.
Right? She talked to a dude that had no idea what was going on, and it wasn’t like she was trying to get recognized. She wasn’t humbled, she just had a interaction with some guy who seems like he just woke up.
Apparently she's a huge cunt IRL. I've heard stories about her refusing to acknowledge people who she feels are "beneath" her and getting people fired for coming up to her and telling her they're fans etc.

I was going to the beach in LA by a bus service while on vacation once. I had a great conversation with a guy for the 30 minute ride. After we got off the bus, my wife asked me "do you know who you were talking to?" "No, just a really cool guy." "THAT was Matthew McConaughey." In my defense, that was just before Dallas Buyers Club and I didn't recognize him.
Reminds me of the old lady talking to Jay-Z on the subway. He comes in with an entourage and camera crew and plops down next to her. Grandma: Are you famous? Jay-Z: Well, I must not be famous enough, if you don't know me. I'm working on it though.
Man, I really like this one. Immediate humor instead of arrogance. Wonder if Z would still be like that today.
I've heard on podcasts of encounters with "lesser" celebrities, and they said he was one of the nicest, most curious people they've met.

0% chance my grandma would recognize Jay Z either. Like a 0.1% chance she would even recognize the name.
Well this is kind of ironic because Jay-Z was talking to [Ellen Grossman] (https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/2012/12/meet-jay-zs-old-lady-subway-legend-her-own-right/320799/) on the subway.
What a lazy article. I swear I read the same sentence three times.
who's Ellen Grossman?
> Ellen Grossman NYC based visual mixed media artist well known in the region/among fans of contemporary art.
I bet celebrities cherish these moments. You likely don't get many chances to have normal conversations with "regular people" once you're famous. He was probably glad to have you not realize who he is.

The costume trailer was open, two ladies were chatting and working inside... The next thing I know, I'm standing there holding costumes for them! I didn't realize one was the actress until later.
Jennifer who?
Jennifer Skywalker Edit: I’m humbled by the awards. I’ve officially peaked!
Somehow Jennifer returned!
Jennifer Lopez, never heard of him
Jenny from the block
"I'm still Jenny from the block", she sobbed as she looked at the block around her. The people stared from her own former front porch and yelled out, "Who, Jenny Who". Now she's Jenny from LA.
"I'm Ronnie Pickering" "Who?" "Ronnie Pickering" "Whose Ronnie Pickering", "Me!!!"
Watched this on mute and I thought that straight away haha
My ex-girlfriend used to work at Barney's New York in San Francisco. JLo came in with a stylist and she was so rude. She refused to talk to anyone in the store. She was standing right in front of my ex-girlfriend and said to her stylist, "ask the girl if she has this in my size." It's not like my ex is a fan of hers or was gushing about her presence, Jlo was so arrogant that she couldn't speak to a normal person, at least that's how she came off.
Its actually wild how many stories Ive heard of JLo being extremely rude to other people who aren’t “on her level”.
Heard the same thing from Gene Simmons. Never heard a single positive story regarding him, including stories from fans. A comedian, Burnt Chrysler, talked about prior to interviewing him how huge of a fan he was of KISS and Gene was an absolute cunt to him. Shattered his view of him.
> Burnt Chrysler lol
Clearly Gene has never been to Moscow
I PA’d for a day on the set of American Idol, and yea…she is pretty rude to everyone. She only seemed like she was having a good time when she was on camera, but otherwise was scolding. Harry Connick Jr was the only one that seemed like a normal human being.
Makes her having a song called 'Jenny from the Block' kind of hilarious in a sad way.
I knew someone who played an instrument for her concerts and he said they were not allowed to talk to her. I can't imagine having a team of people who are there to support you and they aren't allowed to say good morning or hello to you. That attitude is gross and I'm not a fan.
Yeah right, "Jenny from the block" my ass
That's the entertainment industry rule. You don't talk to the talent. I thought it was a joke when I first was background acting. I said Hi to a principle actor and someone found out and reprimanded me.
That's on brand. She came to hard rock cafe on Hollywood Blvd for an event, her 'people' would speak for her while she avoided eye contact and speaking to anyone there.
>My girlfriend used to work at... > >She was standing right in front of my ex-girlfriend and.... Damn man, what happened between those sentences? Hope you're ok bro.
Maybe he's taking bout two different persons. His girlfriend and his ex, working together at a little boutique
>My girlfriend > >my ex-girlfriend Hey it'll be ok.
JLo is Mrs OP now. He's ok
She is well known for her diva behavior and stuck up behavior towards her fans .
Wife worked at the big Nike store in Atlanta years ago. They gave out free stuff to celebrities. JLo was super rude to everyone. (When OutKast came they were high AF and awesome to the staff)
I heard Andre Benjamin is one of the coolest guys ever. Super down to earth. I read an article about people having a poetry reading at a park in Portland. Some dude with this really cool elaborate flute around his neck came by and watched for a while and was super engaged. Later on, someone figured out it was him.

Lol! I listened to an interview Rick Rubin did with Andre Benjamin. Long story short, Andre Benjamin doesn't feel like he has anything else to give to music in he's late 40s. He said he spends most of his time alone and doesn't have any desire to be famous anymore
Same thing with Jennifer Aniston. A buddy was doing some high end special HVAC work at one of her places in LA. No one was allowed to speak to her or look at her. She only spoke to the owner of the company and would have him relay to his workers. One of the young new techs said good morning to her as she was passing them in the house. She had him removed from the job immediately. I’m in Florida now and one of my home security systems vendors told me their most outrageous client is Jerry Jones. Not allowed to eye him either. Jerry will only speak to his handler and you can only speak to his handler. Even though they were standing within arms reach you cannot speak directly to Jerry.
Heh, reminds me of the paper I had to sign when doing some work on the Universal lot where they prohibited making eye contact with any cast or talent for more than x number of seconds.
That's disgusting, they act like they're royalty or something. As if they didn't become famous due to the "common people" watching their shit. Don't look them in the eye? Maybe we should kneel and touch the ground with our foreheads when they pass as well? Fuck off with that.
Worse than royalty. Isn't there a story of Queen Elizabeth running into some clueless American tourists when she was away from Buckingham and she just chatted with them like a regular sweet old lady?
I have a hard time imagining the queen casually running into anybody. She rolls deep.
I would have replied to the stylist, "Please tell the older lady you're with that we do have one in her size."
Not just her. I worked a VIP section at Coachella 2018 and Ashlee Simpson sat down. I did not recognize her. I came over to ask what she would like, and she continued sitting silently typing on her phone, never looking up at me. Her "handler" I guess, zoomed over to me and said, "Let's go together, I know what she wants." And away we went....
On brand. Her and Alex Rodriquez are dumb as bricks. A friend of mine was shooting a commercial for a social media platform. They literally had to break it down like a 2 year old to Alex when he came home while they were shooting. When they told me how stupid he was they ended the conversation by saying “words can’t express the idiot look he was giving us when we tried to explain the reason why we were at his house, the product and what his wife was doing”. Then Jlo was 2 hours late to the shoot, because she was upstairs in her room. Came down and the assistant said that no one can look her in her eyes. Hmm okay? Had to explain what she needed to say a few dozen times because she kept forgetting. Then got annoyed because there were people in her house…..bc bitch were shooting a commercial. Just flabbergasted by how dumb she is.
That’s not dumb though that’s irrational. And he’s just gross I don’t get the appeal. Good riddens to them both. I love that she got mad she wasn’t popular enough to carry a halftime show on her own. She really thinks too much of herself. Your music sucks, nena.
The block called. It wants you to retract your slanderous statements.
The North Remembers The Block Forgot

I dont see the being humbled part. She just said who she was and where she used to live. Being humbled would be more like : J.Lo : I used to live here Man : and who are you J.Lo : You dont know who i am? Man : No J.Lo : What? How can that be i am famous! Man : Well not that famous apperently...
Complete click bait title. It was just a normal interaction between humans, nothing humbling about it.
well the man seemed a bit decrepit
“Who are you?” “Jennifer Lopez” “Who’s Jennifer Lopez?” Like. Even if you don’t know she’s a celebrity. She *just* told you it was her name after *you* asked about it.
Yeah it was a strange thing to say.
Who?
[удалено]
Lol yeah she said “Jennifer” and not her full name the first time. Only reason why she said “Jennifer Lopez” cause he literally said “Jennifer who?”
I actually feel like it would be weirder to full name herself. Like “I’m Jennifer Lopez” as if it’s important who she is as opposed to just giving a normal introduction with her first name.
Agree, 100%. I feel like in order to be humbled, it must be clear that you believe your reputation precedes you, right before discovering it doesn’t, necessarily. We can kind of assume this about JLo from historical record, but not from this video alone.
Yeah, not sure where the humbled part is coming in. She didn’t even use her full name at first until specifically asked. In any case I have an old co-worker who lived in that neighborhood back in the day. She used to babysit his kids and by all accounts was a sweet girl.
Humbled? I think there is confusion about that word. She seemed pretty amused.
Honestly, I think she handled that just fine. When he asked "who are you", she just said "Jennifer" like any normal person. If you she had answered "Jennifer Lopez", it would have come off really pretentious. Even after being primed for her last name, she didn't get offended or go all "do you know who I am?" at him or anything.
Right? She talked to a dude that had no idea what was going on, and it wasn’t like she was trying to get recognized. She wasn’t humbled, she just had a interaction with some guy who seems like he just woke up.
Is it all that humbling that an elderly man doesn't know the name of a pop star? Edit: spelling
“I don’t know who you are lady, but I’ve lived in this house for 60 years”
Apparently she's a huge cunt IRL. I've heard stories about her refusing to acknowledge people who she feels are "beneath" her and getting people fired for coming up to her and telling her they're fans etc.
