[This thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=783962)about being asked out by strangers made me ponder how notable people would react to being asked out. I’m guessing that a female celebrity would be covered up with protective gatekeepers. If say, you are fairly good looking man with a decent job how would you make your move? What gets you a shot?

How about being a female interested in a hot male celebrity. What’s your move? Do male celebrities have gatekeepers too?
