Being a global star and a personality who’s known all over the world can be as challenging as it is fun. While we can only sit and guess what it would be like, during the most recent episode of the Hollywood Round Table, a few top actors came together and discussed their lives and professions. The men of The Hollywood Reporter‘s annual Comedy Actor Emmy Roundtable shared it all, from the most bizarre feedback they have received over the years to the strangest fan encounters till now and everything in between.
This time, THR had actor and comedians Bowen Yang, Anthony Mackie, Ricky Martin, Theo James, Kelsey Grammer and John Goodman at The Georgian Hotel in Santa Monica for the fun-filled episode. Each one of them gave us a sneak peek into the hilarious real-life experiences they had throughout the conversation. However, one of the funniest segments during the episode was when the actors were asked about any particularly weird fan interactions they had.
In response to the question, Anthony Mackie shared a particular interaction story that left everyone slightly disgusted and laughing out loud.
Anthony Mackie said he was in Vancouver, shooting Altered Carbon. While in a bar, he saw a young lady, who he guessed had some special needs. Hence, he told his bartender to ask the lady to come and say hello to him.
“She makes her way around the bar and everybody in the restaurant’s like, He’s so nice. So she’s like, Can we take a picture? I was like, Well, give me your phone. If you’re discreet, I can take a picture. So I take the picture, she looks at it and she pukes from here all the way down to my shoes. This is after two dozen oysters, a lobster,” he explained, which Martin, along with other guests found “horrible.”
He says that she soon ran out of the restaurant. The waiter came, took him back to the oyster wash-off and washed him clean with a water hose.
“They take my clothes. He goes across the street to T.J. Maxx and gets me some sweatpants and a graffiti T-shirt, and I come back out and this woman is like, I’m sorry, can I take a picture,” he added.
All others bust into laughter as he explains that it was a different woman and not the one whom he met earlier.
Meanwhile, he ended his story revealing, “She was so gone. So I asked the other woman, Yo, I was just trying to be nice to your special needs friend. She was like, Special needs? That’s my boss.”
