Selfie Society is a blog dedicated to highlighting celebrities who post "selfies" that help better society. For my first post I spoke about one of my favorite actors, Paul Walker. This blog post is a little more personal. Being how the first celebrity I spoke about was Paul Walker, I wanted to give readers a little more insight on my view of him.
Growing up I always had a crush on Paul Walker as well as enjoyed all of his films. When I was 15 I had the opportunity to meet him and although it was short; it's an experience I will never forget. Throughout the day I happened to be searching and saw some of his films; later in the day I went to Times Square to celebrates a friend's birthday.
After dinner we decided to walk around and as I was crossing the street with a friend a tall man walked by us and I automatically recognized him. I told my friend that it was Paul Walker but I was a little hesitant to approach him because I did not want to be a bother. However, my friend took my arm and we went in the same direction as him and he had already been stopped by two other fans.
When they left, I asked him the first question that popped into my head "Are you Paul Walker" to which he replied "Yes I am" with a big warm friendly smile. After that I told him that I loved his work and he was so grateful and thanked me. I asked for a picture and he was more than willing to take a picture with us (I was lucky enough to stand next to him :) ) Unfortunately the picture didn't come out and by the time I realized he was down the block and I definitely did not want to go bother.
However, it is an experience I will not forget because he was extremely nice and took the time out with his friends to speak to us and even take a picture (wish I had it). But, it was a great night I got a half hug from one of my biggest celebrity crushes and favorite actors as well as realize what a nice person he was.
