Okay, take out the social/economic implications and pretend you are in Fantasyland for a minute. Let’s say there was a celebrity you happen to find yourself in the same room with and the conversation flowed and there was a genuine connection between the two of you with romantic implications. Who might that celebrity be?
I was once tending bar for a catering company at a celebrity event and as she came to my bar, Patricia Arquette and I locked eye contact – and it held there for a legitimate few seconds. She tipped me $10 for a scotch & water at the complimentary bar and remains one of only three celebs that ever tipped me in a no-cash setup (Jimmy Walker & Steve van Zant being the others). Then real life set in and I didn’t see her again that night. I oggled her once more at another party, but without interaction.
And as I think about it, Arquette and I could have really hit it off. Close in age, similar political and (loopy) spiritual views, both on the kinky side in the bedroom and, of course, both think the other is adorable.
Plus, she’s a pretty open-minded person, could be the type to go outside the entertainment world for the right person. Of course, in reality, it’s very unlikely it could have worked over time because our different social worlds and backgrounds (and financial statii). But so what. Let’s not ruin the thread.
Also for me: Sarah Silverman. Our quirks and senses of humor would match and I think I could put up with her.
Note that the word celebrity is not limited to the rich, famous, beautiful… “A celebrity is a person who has a prominent profile and commands some degree of public fascination and influence in day-to-day media.”
So ask yourself if someone like Jody Arias (who killed her ex-boyfriend) or Lorena Bobbit (who cut off her husband’s penis) would go for you.
Lee Anne Womack. Similar backgrounds, political leanings, and ages…I seem to be close to her type…and she’s DEFINITELY my type…those eyes…
But I digress. I honestly think, were timing and situations workable, that there would be chemistry…
I probably fit the profile to be one of Dahmer’s victims, although he’d have to catch me at a straight bar and I usually don’t accept drinks from guys unless they’re expensive drinks.
Ellen Pompeo
Eliza Dushku
Lisa Lampanelli( Yuck…before she killed her entire comedy routine by marrying a White guy)
A number of Black actresses (not the hot ones; just the average ones…LOL)
Khloe Kardashian ( yeah…the big one)
Aisha Tyler. She’s from San Francisco, she’s a gamer, and she married a white guy, so I know she doesn’t have a problem on that score. She’d probably kick my ass in Halo, though, like the song says.
Not to burst anyone’s bubble, but one of the qualities that makes a person a celebrity is the ability to project the sense that you could have a chance with them. For every value of “you”.
Yeah, sure. So I’m over here, and ScarJo is over there in a negligee, and looking right at me with a gaze that would set Mt. Rushmore on fire, and you’re saying it’s just 'cuz she’s an actress or something?
I mean, it’s not like she was on stage or anything.
Fuckit, why fight the hypothetical. I’m demisexual tho, so it would just be hanging out until and unless an actual friendship developed (haha).
I’m a gamer girl, I have a weird-ass sense of humor, and a deep love of dystopian sci-fi and anti-heroes. If circumstances permitted, Vin Deisel and I could easily manage some enjoyable times shooting the shit, even if we just threw some dice.
I’m also a stage manager and theatre geek, big on Shakespeare (before it was cool, and while it was cool) and I love critical discussions about literature, dancing (badly, but I love it) and activism/volunteering. In a dream universe, I imagine that Tom Hiddleston or Patrick Stewart would be great fun to hang out with and have meandering literary and theatrical discussions that would bore everyone else to fucking tears.
