People like to talk a big game about what they would do if they ever met a celebrity, but what happens when the moment actually arrives? Twitter user @rachyymarshall asked people "What is the stupidest thing you've said to a celebrity?" and the answers she received proved that keeping your cool is way easier said than done.
To get the ball rolling Marshall shared her own humiliating encounter with one of the queens of pop. “I once told [Lady] Gaga she looked like MARY Antoinette. I meant Marie,” she tweeted, even adding video evidence of the memory. Well apparently word vomiting in front of stars is a common phenomenon and the thread soon went viral with people sharing fan freak-outs with famous faces from Taylor Swift to former President Barack Obama. Scroll down below to read some of these hilarious OMG moments and don't forget to upvote your favs.

When I worked at the War College in PA, my Sergeant was manning the desk when Tom Clancy walked in. He literally yelled "Oh My God! Do you know who you are!?" and immediately tried to take the words back. Luckily Mr. Clancy was a very nice man and just answered (with a smile) "Yes. Yes I do. And apparently you do too!"

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago - when Blockbuster Video still was in existence - I was told that Brad Pitt would be stopping by our location to covertly sign some posters, merch, etc for Legends of the Fall. As I was only working twice that week I thought that there was no way I'd be there for the blessed event. Well, it happened on my shift. He stood in front of me signing things while I was trying to look busy... chatting the whole time. I honestly could not tell you anything of what he said, as I was in my only little world. Suddenly he looked up at me and said: "You know?". I straight up looked him in the eye and dais: "Can I touch your hair?". He gave me a look indicating that he clearly thought I was special needs, and begrudgingly said: "Umm, sure?". Well damn right I touched that luscious mane & proceeded to proclaim: "Oooh, silky!". Not one of my finer moments.

Years ago I was in D.C. walking by the Capitol building as Hillary Clinton was getting into her town car. I started excitedly saying, "Is that Hillary Clinton?! I think that's Hillary Clinton! Was that Hillary Clinton?!." Then a security officer said to me, You should have taken a picture." To which I replied, "Oh, I don't really care." and wandered off.
