Jack Black once listened very empathetically to girl troubles I was having when I was 18 and gave me solid, mature advice on leaving things be. I didn’t realize it was him until someone told me.

I once served Tom Hanks at my old job. Once I was off I was leaving & he was too. I asked if it would be okay for us to take a picture together. He smiled & said “walk with me.” So I did & we talked, he gave me some life advice, then we took a few pictures together.
Super nice.— some jerk (@NerdGerm) November 10, 2017

Salma Hayek danced with my little sister at a party once, as did Shannon Doherty, and Spice Girl Mel C played Connect 4 with her. Lucy Liu was so incredibly kind and lovely when we worked together when I was nine that she became one of my first big crushes.

I worked on a movie with Brad Pitt back in the late 1980s. He’s incredibly funny, talented, and kind. He’s also a really good card player, and he taught me how to play poker. He taught me so well that I was finally able beat him.
