The Day I met Lauren Graham

So, I went to see Guys and Dolls on Broadway last May(?), pretty much because Lauren Graham was playing Adelaide in the show.

I decided to hang outside the theater with the “stage door” fans, as they are called, pretty much just for Ms. Graham. I usually avoid stage dooring it because I’m always afraid it comes off as extra creepy, stalkery, and a bit desperate (still I did also meet Tim Curry that way).

Anyway, when she finished signing autographs (I just took pictures), she retreated inside, and I decided it was best to leave (re: desperate). As I began to walk away, Ms. Graham (now in a hat and large sunglasses) came bursting out a side door right next to me. I kept walking, but I noticed she was keeping pace. I am not this lucky, so I ignored it.

Three steps later she was stopped by a crazy mom fan and her daughter who begged Ms. Graham for a picture. I figured my luck had run out so I kept walking, but after she finished her picture, she jogged up near to where I was, and started keeping pace again.

At this point, if I could have physically melted into a puddle, I would have.

Instead though, pure adrenaline took over and I realized I would never get this chance again, so I turned to her and said:

“Don’t worry I won’t bother you.”

To which she replied, “Oh, I’m not worried, you don’t look that much like a creepster.”

I laughed and said: “Well thank you, it’s always nice to hear how not creepy I look.”

Which made her laugh, and she said, “Your welcome” (insert more melting).

When we reached the end of the block, I realized I was turning the opposite direction she was so I just said:

“Have a nice day!” I’m sure it was very awkward, but she smiled and told me, “you too.”

Later upon telling my mom, she pointed out that Ms. Graham probably just wanted to walk near someone to be less recognizable. That’s right; I was Lauren Graham’s beard for a block… Still, it was the best 30 feet I’ve ever walked.
the future, today! (operationfailure: Sorry, forgot I needed to do...)

in one comment under the post someone said they walked Lauren´s dog once.

that's such a cute story.
I don't know what I'd do if I met Lauren or any of the other actresses I like. I don't think I'd be able to say anything that wouldn't embarass me 'cause it's usually what happens when I'm nervous.

Awww so unfair. But at least she has your taste in places to go.

Katka- thanks for that bit!

Thanks Katka for that tweet! After defending her on IMDb it's refreshing to read something like this.

I know, right? But I suppose there will always be judgemental pricks who expect celebrities to be perfect all the time.

Yaz - kinda the same happened to me when I was in LA for the first time. I could have seen her first show on Ferguson but missed out by two days. I couldn´t get over it for a long time but luckily I was able to meet her on Broadway later so everything is ok with the world
