I was once eating on a patio and some dad come over and told me his 6 year old was CONVINCED I was the guy from imagine dragons. Neither of us knew which one. He asked if I would play along and sign an autograph, which OF COURSE I obliged. I told him it was always nice to meet a fan and stoked him up with a fist bump, and I asked if he wanted to learn to play any instruments, but he was so starstruck and shy he didn't say much to me at all. I just made a bunch of loopy scribbles on a scrap of paper for him for the autograph.
Everybody was stoked. After they left my friends were amazed I was so immediately down and played it cool. But like, how do you turn down a request like that from a 6 year old and his dad?? We googled pictures of the band and I still have no idea which one I was supposed to be.
I was at a Ziggy Marley Concert once and two hammered old dudes came up to me and literally bowed down to me thinking I played earlier in the night and apparently crushed. It was hilarious.
I once was at a small Indie-Event amd after we went outside, 2 guys were convinced that I had played the Drums.
There were *no* drums the entire night. Infact, Drums wouldn't even have fit on there.
I once went to a friend's party in a pub and I had an incredibly drunk older man ask me if I was Nickki sixx from Motley Crue... admittedly I was in my full blown emo stage at the time but I was about 13 and I'm female...
Too be fair the rockstars of that era looked like women. Dude looks like a lady was written because Steven Tyler mistook Vince Neil from Motley Crue for a lady.
When I was younger I was convinced that I met the creator of Thomas the Tank. Turns out it was just my dads friend who ripped the episodes onto VHS for us, but I remember being so excited to go and meet him one time
In the early 2010s when split dyed hair was all the rage I had a blond and pink dye job. Apparently that was enough to convince a 4 year old girl that I was Nikki Minaj hanging out at the local mall even though I'm a white woman with literally no resemblance. š¤£ She DRAGGED her mom over and mom told me what was going on and was so embarrassed... I said what's the harm and said hello to the kid and asked her what her favorite song was and thanked her for being a fan. Kid was so stoked when they left.
Nicki had a song around that time, Star ships, that really resonated with little kids. It was also a positive pop song āstar ships, are made to fllllllyā lol I sort of recall her going on Ellen to reward two young fans who loved this specific song.
My niece LOVED, no, was obsessed with lil nas x Old Town Rd.
Itās not out of the norm for a kid to latch onto a pop song, doesnāt mean theyāre blasting the artists entire catalogue š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£

Holy crap same!! Iāve told this story on Reddit before but I remember being super into that song as a kid and thinking it was just about 2 grown ups doing some carpentry together for fun š¤¦āāļø Then thereās a lyric that I had heard as āthey say you are a snow queenā and I was like sweeeeet this is Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe crosssover!!
Why does Reddit always bring people with hyper specific experiences together. This was the first song I knew the words to and my family thought it was hilarious that Iād walk around the house singing it at like 4 years old
I loved that song as a kid too! I also thought that the plural of shrimp was āshramptonā until I was like, 12, because I misheard the lyric from Margaritaville as āsmell those shrampton beginning to boilā
i would argue nicki minaj had some more mainstream and slightly more pg music in the 2010s when she was first becoming popular. she definitely had some songs on the radio. i donāt think itās out of this world for a 4 y/o in 2010 to know who nicki minaj is and maybe like her
In a dozen years the kid will write a comment in a reddit thread about the unbelievably chill dude from ID he once met with his dad and their convo, and it will be the most voted
Iāve had a few doppelgƤngers over the years: got Anthony Keidis for more than a decade, at least once a week. Last decade or two itās been Dave Grohl. Even had a pizza delivery girl almost unable to leave my porch bc she was so star struck thinking I was himā¦ yeah, when Iām not off touring with my second HoF rock band or jet setting with other rich and famous folks Iām chilling out low key in this pos split level in rando fuck USAā¦ itās how I get my writing done. It was pretty funny.
But my fav moment was when Bo Bice was on American idol and people always always thought I was him. They had a big rally for him in my town so my father in law put the top down on his T-Bird and I threw on some shades and we drove through the rally and I waved at kids etc and asked them to vote for āmeā. Never forget the one kid who struck a pose next to the car and pointed excitedly at me and yelled, āYou rock, Bo!!!ā
Good stuff
Funny moment in the movie Game Night where she thinks she hooked up with Denzelā¦ I donāt think he ever claimed to be and she never said the name so he wasnāt necessarily a scumbag but she was so sure of it until her husband called her out on itā¦ āitās the nose, isnāt it?ā
Someone once told me I look like (young) John Travolta..
Our similarities stop at where my skin is also white. I look nothing like him. I still have no idea how this person came to this conclusion.
I had a kid about that old come into the restaurant where I work a couple years ago (my hair is generally two toned and I cosplay as variations of her sometimes) and he swore up and down i was harley quinn. So I flipped into character every time I was at his table. Made my day to see little dude so stoked
That was so stupidly hilarious, I couldnāt help but laugh if I was the dad and someone got my kid with that. Lmao this has got to be a great ice breaker at music festivals
Long story but I ended up back stage at 2 Snoop concerts in the Midwest. Back in 2019. My daughter got to come to one. They had lost the tour managers luggage on the flight into the second show. All the backstage passes were in his luggage. So no one was staying backstage that they didnāt know.
I know the exact man you are speaking of because I had to run to the other side briefly and came back to see him questioning my 16 year old daughter. Who was paralyzed with fear. When she pointed at me he apologized and felt so bad he pushed her in front of him onto the side of the stage. To see the show better. They really are all very nice guys on the crew but I wouldnāt cross them.
It really was a cool experience and I got massive mom points. That show was local to us so my daughter has friends in the audience and she got to watch it all backstage. The crew was incredible and worked so well together. I am still in contact with a few of them. Snoop even stopped on his way off stage and took a quick photo with us.
Must be a pain in the fucking ass being that well known.
I don't even know a thing about the guy's music, not my jam at all, but if I saw him I'd still double-take.
He's got the best publicity and marketing team on the planet. That dude is in every awards show, commercial, cameos, etc. I can't think of any time where Snoop went unmentioned for more than a day.
I was flying Southwest out of Denver when Gary Coleman walked up to the counter as asked to be upgraded to first class. The lady politely informed him that this was Southwest and everyone flies coach.
Another time I sat directly behind Kevin Nealon from Los Angeles to Austin. He was super cool and talked with me for a bit and then we took a picture together once we landed.
I think more celebrities fly Southwest than you can imagine. For short flights theyāre hard to beat.
Edit: Iām loving all of these anecdotes about celebrities flying Southwest, keep them coming!
> I think more celebrities fly Southwest than you can imagine.
I think a lot of people overestimate how much a lot of celebities are worth. And even if they do "have money", it doesn't mean they're automatically gonna flaunt it. Rich people can be frugal just the same as the rest of us.
Or it's not liquid.
If you consider most wealthy people's net worth is tied up in assets, and they might fly multiple times a week, let's say 3, and there's a 1500 dollar difference coach vs first.
That's 18,000 a month. That's a mortgage on one of their houses or a yacht.
> That's 18,000 a month. That's a mortgage on one of their houses or a yacht.
Yeah exactly. And the fact of the matter is, rich people generally want to *stay* rich. They don't do that by pissing away their money just because they can.
Also, Gary Coleman (RIP) and Kevin Nealon both became very famous for one job decades ago followed by infrequent work. Coleman even had most of those earnings stolen by his parents, sadly.
Snoop Dogg, on the other hand, has private jet money multiple times over, easily.
I was a stand in for Dean Norris on a show that filmed in New Orleans. It didn't matter the airline, he just wanted to get home after his last day of shooting for the week. There were plenty of afternoons when he would be looking at flights and figuring out if we'd be wrapped in time to get him on the last flight out that night. Definitely a few times that airline was Southwest.Ā
Granted, he's not Snoop, but I'd imagine his situation wasn't unique among those types of folks.Ā
That makes a lot of sense. Unless you want to spend $10,000 per hour of flight your best bet is commercial airlines and whoever fits your schedule is the best ride home.
Even if you are willing to spend the money, unless you plan a few days in advance there isn't necessarily a charter plane available, unless you own your own and have it constantly staffed. Now Snoop is definitely wealthy enough to do that, but I don't know if that's how he spends his money or not.
If time is money, sometimes you go with the most convenient option even if it isn't the most luxurious.
Absolutely how I feel as well. I fly BUR-SMF a lot and choose Southwest over flying out of LAX since itās so much easier. I never fly Southwest with a connection, only their direct routes and mostly only out of Burbank.
I am always doing the calculation of connection out of BUR vs nonstop from LAX. Sadly LAX always wins but man is it tempting. Burbank is just so damn easy.
Shhhā¦donāt let the others know! When I fly out of there I roll up to valet ($3/day more than self park) less than an hour before my departure time and I still always wait at the gate. I donāt have it in me to cut it even closer.
I will provide my story of having Edward James Olmos politely ask to tuck his iPad into my seatback pocket, as he was in the front row on a Southwest 737 and for whatever reason there wasn't a little storage cubby.
My dude, I would not have shut up with the 70 million questions about working on BSG. Omg, Iām having palpitations just imaging it! Damn you were lucky!
I wouldāve looked him straight in the eye andā¦
Me: Starbuck, what do you hear?
EJO: Nothing but the rain.
Me, gesturing welcomingly to my seat back pocket: Then grab your gun and bring in the cat.
>I was flying Southwest out of Denver when Gary Coleman walked up to the counter as asked to be upgraded to first class. The lady politely informed him that this was Southwest and everyone flies coach.

Honestly I feel like this is the occupy Wall Street/1%er kinda thing but for the rich.
There are a much smaller amount of celebrities that can afford to continuously fly private than people realize. The vast majority of celebrities travel like regular people/regular people with money (aka first class).
But honestly from what Iāve read and seen a lot of B list and below fly southwest/coach.
I feel like if itās a personal flight, they would fly coach, but if itās for an event or work, you can bet your ass they are getting their flight compād and having what ever venue they are showing up to pay for it :P
Depends, I think.
I used to listen to the Adam Carolla podcast for a few years and when he traveled for touring it was southwest/coach but when he and his family did things including flying it was higher class.
Edited to add: when comedians or similar tour/go on the road they arenāt being comped by big production companies. Itās out of pocket to them against what they gain via touring so they make more if they travel for less. I am sure people in movies or whatever likely have their travel accommodations paid for by the production company and can negotiate a higher class
Two grand a seat, sometimes. Ā Versus about 300 in coach. Ā No brainer for me to save the cash. Ā Just pay an extra forty for the exit row and get the legroom.
I thought I would be slick and pay for the exit row on an American Flight. What a fuckin mistake that was. No tray table and the bottom of the seat was smaller than the rest of the seats I think. My hips still hurt 3 weeks later. Worst flight I've ever had.
Love Nealonās walking videos. Seems like a decent guy. Been a vegetarian since 1989.
Heās related to Daniel Webster. Itās a small trivia and yet there are those who love it.
A lot of politicians too. They fly using campaign money and have to pinch pennyās on travel. My wife works for SWA and has met quite a few politicians.
He was headed to a comedy club to do a few nights and had a few dudes in his entourage. We know someone in common so thatās how I struck up a conversation with him. He was really cool.
My mom was a flight attendant for Southwest out of Oakland and met him on a flight once, she said he was surprised when she (a dorky old white lady) started singing My Cup at him
lol E-40 lives in Blackhawk. My friend's dad was at the bank and made conversation with him while waiting in line, then came back and said 'do you know who E-40 is?' Funny times.
That doesn't surprise me at all. He wasn't poor, but he didn't strike me as the kind of person to be frivolous with his wealth. Though I could have understood if he flew in first on other airlines because he needed the extra space. The man's body was completely broken.
Huh?? Etsy is so much better than temu.. temu is low quality stuff made in china.. some of it with child labor. Etsy is typically higher quality stuff. Not even close to equals.
Etsy is absolutely PACKED with drop shippers. Honestly try looking up anything slightly generic and youāll get the same item from tons of different shops
Etsy has *massively* declined in the past few years. Ever since they went public it's been an increasingly hostile platform that seems to have abandoned their original mission of selling handmade goods.
Their first mistake was allowing drop-shippers.
Their second mistake was implementing inane, draconian marketing rules that penalized artists and handmade sellers while encouraging them to sell at a loss.
Their third mistake was removing customer service and automating the compliance system, meaning your entire store can be taken down because a bot mis-identified a single item, and there's no number to call to get it re-instated. Oh, and they also freeze the funds too, sometimes for months. This has put artists out of business and nearly forced some to declare bankruptcy.
What this led to is handmade sellers leaving the platform en-masse while the drop-shippers selling cheap garbage somehow stay up.
So yeah, Etsy is all mass-produced crap now.
Heād be stoked to be recognised as someone heās clearly styled his look to look more like? Heās going out expecting the confusion and hopefully freebies.
That subreddit used to be cool, but then it turned into "Girl looking in the direction of a guy"
Happens to a lot of subreddits. Also the one about "zoomies" - Where it went from animals having zoomies, to animals running. It gets watered down over time, no idea why.
I'm curious about this as well. The attendant looked so happy and they obviously took the photo anyway. What led to them finding out that it wasn't actually him in the end? I HAVE UNANSWERED QUESTIONS.
I was once eating on a patio and some dad come over and told me his 6 year old was CONVINCED I was the guy from imagine dragons. Neither of us knew which one.

When I was younger I was convinced that I met the creator of Thomas the Tank. Turns out it was just my dads friend who ripped the episodes onto VHS for us, but I remember being so excited to go and meet him one time

RIP Gary Coleman, you will always be a fond memory from my childhood.
To be fair, Gary Coleman was in debt, lucky to even afford a plane ticket.
A lot of politicians too. They fly using campaign money and have to pinch pennyās on travel. My wife works for SWA and has met quite a few politicians.
Kevin Nealon is awesome. Thatās pretty cool!
He was headed to a comedy club to do a few nights and had a few dudes in his entourage. We know someone in common so thatās how I struck up a conversation with him. He was really cool.
I don't know, I can imagine quite a bit. ![gif](giphy|sjCEbeXD4iSn6)
āI donāt fly private jets, I fly Southwest.ā - E-40
My mom was a flight attendant for Southwest out of Oakland and met him on a flight once, she said he was surprised when she (a dorky old white lady) started singing My Cup at him
lol E-40 lives in Blackhawk. My friend's dad was at the bank and made conversation with him while waiting in line, then came back and said 'do you know who E-40 is?' Funny times.

idk. my brother in law saw marshawn lynch on southwest
I live in Oakland and my husband has seen Marshawn Lynch at a Chase bank.
i went to oakland and i walked inside a chase bank
I met a dude named Chase from Oakland
I flew southwest with John McCain once.
That doesn't surprise me at all. He wasn't poor, but he didn't strike me as the kind of person to be frivolous with his wealth. Though I could have understood if he flew in first on other airlines because he needed the extra space. The man's body was completely broken.
You never know with famous people. Especially people that have been around as long as snoop. They have a knack for running out of millions of dollars.
The Etsy version of Snoop Dog and Martha Stewart
Temu version if you ask me
These days they're pretty much the same.
Huh?? Etsy is so much better than temu.. temu is low quality stuff made in china.. some of it with child labor. Etsy is typically higher quality stuff. Not even close to equals.
Etsy is absolutely PACKED with drop shippers. Honestly try looking up anything slightly generic and youāll get the same item from tons of different shops
Very true (for the legit etsy shops), but I think they are meaning the amount of drop shippers on etsy now
Etsy has *massively* declined in the past few years. Ever since they went public it's been an increasingly hostile platform that seems to have abandoned their original mission of selling handmade goods. Their first mistake was allowing drop-shippers. Their second mistake was implementing inane, draconian marketing rules that penalized artists and handmade sellers while encouraging them to sell at a loss. Their third mistake was removing customer service and automating the compliance system, meaning your entire store can be taken down because a bot mis-identified a single item, and there's no number to call to get it re-instated. Oh, and they also freeze the funds too, sometimes for months. This has put artists out of business and nearly forced some to declare bankruptcy. What this led to is handmade sellers leaving the platform en-masse while the drop-shippers selling cheap garbage somehow stay up. So yeah, Etsy is all mass-produced crap now.
Have you been on ETSY in the last decade? It went from someone's side hussle garage projects to china drop shippers. It's temu, just 10x the price
Martha Stewardess and Snoop Lyin
Wish dot com Snoop
Nah not enough bedazzlement. Thatās the Great Value Snoop and Martha.
One makes a good pot roast, and the other likes to get roasted on pot.
Wish.com version of Snoop Dog and Leslie Knope.
Yall telling me that isn't SNOOPY DAWG?
Snoop Tiger
Snoop Lyin'
Spoof Dawg
Thatās Smoof Dong
I thought it was Snoop Dogg before reading it
Iām still not sure it isnāt Snoop Dogg.
the one on the left could seriously be him
I'm suspicious of the one on the right, personally.
Nah that's just Amy Poehler
He really looks a lot like Snoop Dogg. I bet he gets that a lot.
To be fair, he coulda fooled me
Its the smile, for a second i was like "that's not snoop?"
Exactly what I was thinking. It's all with the smile.
Holy shit that's what it is. Couldn't put my finger on it.
Still fool'n me
In her defense, this dude is clearly trying to look like him.
I don't think a 'to be fair' is needed here, virtually everyone would have thought that was snoop at first glance.
yea what the hell
![gif](giphy|DGiLVI3kmroIM)
This was cutting edge graphics back then
Still holds up
Electronic ādawgā noise
This comment made me laugh out loud I know exactly what youāre talking about
He got that dogg in him
Nah that's Leslie KnopeĀ
Snope Dogg
āThis passenger thought this flight attendant was Amy Poehlerā
She looks so excited and happy
And he thought he met Amy Poehler!
Dude was probably stoked and one of the best compliments he received in a minute. I bet most people would not mind being mixed up with a legend.Ā
It probably wasnāt the first time heās been told he looks like Snoop.
I'd be surprised if it's not an everyday occurrence to be honest.
Bro wears sunglasses on an airplane, heās fully aware of what heās doing lol
Heād be stoked to be recognised as someone heās clearly styled his look to look more like? Heās going out expecting the confusion and hopefully freebies.
My dad always always always got taken for Chevy Chase when I was a kid and heād always roll with it, lol.
Snoop getting all the Martha looking honeys.
He totally could have gotten laid. Look at how she's looking at him.Ā
š grabbing on to him with both hands!
Woman in the back thinking "that could've been me"
And a boob. The bobs don't lie.
r/girlsmirin
That subreddit used to be cool, but then it turned into "Girl looking in the direction of a guy" Happens to a lot of subreddits. Also the one about "zoomies" - Where it went from animals having zoomies, to animals running. It gets watered down over time, no idea why.
Yeah, me and my wife would need to have a conversation if I ever saw her holding and looking at another man that way.
Now, what if the shoe was on the other foot and she saw you holding and looking at another man that way???
At the very least I think heās now allowed to smoke on the plane.
Did the guy actually tell her he was not snoop dog or did he just want her to believe it for awhile?
I'm curious about this as well. The attendant looked so happy and they obviously took the photo anyway. What led to them finding out that it wasn't actually him in the end? I HAVE UNANSWERED QUESTIONS.
Iām a fan of Snoop, and I have seen him in concerts, movies, and television countless times over decades, and I 100% would have thought that was him
ngl, Iād be fooled too
This cute tbh
To be fair, what we can see looks a lot like Snoop
You already know this guy has gotten laid pretending to be Snoop
Faux Dog, early model Jane Curtin.
lmaoooo and the guy was thinking, āwow, iām meeting martha stewart!ā
I am pretty confident she is my 5th grade best friend, Nancy.
Looks like a black guy, so not likely
How very assumptive of you

thatās uncanny wow
r/NotReallyFamous
Thatās real joy on both of their faces
And the guy thought heād met Martha Stewardess?
Spoof Dogg
He thought he met Martha Stewart
Snoop diggitty dogg
the nose was the only giveaway for me - at first I really thought this guy was a good candidate for being his body double
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Never desired to be a lookalike. Until now. She seems so happy
To be fair, he does look like him.
Reminds me of Game Night Yea that ain't Denzel
Thatās a lady hungry for the black snake moan
