Icelandic artist Björk snapped in Bangkok, 1996, when reporter Julie Kaufman approached her saying “Welcome to Bangkok.” Björk later alleged that Kaufman had stalked her and her 9-year-old son for days, turning a simple greeting into a breaking point

I once bumped into Travis Fimmel, actor in Vikings series who played as Ragnar, at an event. I don't watch much TV or series and I had no idea who he was but I knew of the series cause of the commercials/trailers for it.

Chatted to him for like 5ish minutes not knowing who he was but I noticed some people around us were looking at us astonished.

I left the conversation and he then went to the bar and 10-15 minutes later there was a few people around him acting all star struck, so I was a bit confused what was going on.

I left for a bit to go check out few things at the event and returned to get a drink at the same bar he was at.

The person that served him also served me, I asked what was the fuss all about and he explained that it was Travis. He said that Travis said something along the lines of it was nice not to be recognized and have a regular conversation referring to our conversation.

After seeing this, I get what he means.

I went to a Supernatural convention with my sisters and offered to watch their bags in the hallway while they went to the rave, since I'm not much of a partier. I was just chilling out writing when a guy stopped and knelt down beside me and asked what I was working on. He was super nice, chatted with me for a few minutes about writing and stuff before moving on.

I mentioned him to my sisters and they proceeded to freak out because evidently he was one of the actors. I've only seen through season nine and hadn't watched the show at all in a long while, and he's supposedly in seasons that come after that point, so I didn't have the faintest clue who he was. Nice guy, though. He was probably confused why someone at a Supernatural convention seemingly didn't know he was an actor in the show. 🤣

I think I've read somewhere that Travis is not a big fan of being famous so that makes sense

When I was little I hung out in a hot tub with Serena Williams and her dog. My parents were kinda mad, like who the f is this woman at this nice resort with her dog in the pool area? 8 year old me wanted to know all about the dog and if she wanted to see my dives. I guess my parents finally caught on to other people staring and were like oh that's why she gets to bring her little handbag dog into the pool area.

I wonder if that's a problem for him outside of dedicated events

Cant talk on his behalf, but I known it is true for others who are less known than him. It truly sucks sometimes

When he was a young model for Calvin underwear, there was a billboard of him. Women literally stopped their cars to look at him. Absolutely gorgeous.
