Celebrities being starstruck by other celebrities are such a relatable moment. It reminds everyone that they're just as human as everyone else.
They also look up to other people who probably are in the same profession as they are and served as their childhood hero, or maybe new, young celebrities whose talents and looks are simply admirable.
And when a fortunate happenstance such as meeting your idol occurs, what's the best thing to do? Take a picture, of course!
