Maureen, our advertising and marketing director, as soon as met Prince Harry (!!!) on a NYC resort roof. “My good friend and I have been in our 20s, consuming martinis by the pool,” she instructed me. “After I bought into the pool, he walked over and began chatting with my good friend. I used to be awkwardly treading water, making an attempt to overhear their dialog. She was cool and requested what he was doing that night time, and he mentioned he was throwing the primary pitch on the Mets sport.” This is what he seemed like that very night time!
I as soon as noticed Renee Zellweger wanting flustered in airport safety; I ordered ice cream (and nearly blacked out) subsequent to Tina Fey in a seashore city years in the past; I sat close to Natalie Portman and Gael García Bernal on a date at a teeny sushi spot within the East Village; and in Paris final February I stood behind Laura Dern in line on the grocery retailer. I’m certain there have been others, however I can by no means bear in mind them!

I stood there, completely nonetheless, gazing my watch for a lot longer than is affordable, simply praying that if I seemed lengthy sufficient, my capacity to learn the time would return. Giving in, however refusing to make eye contact, I lastly whispered, ‘…I don’t know.’ She very gently responded, ‘It’s okay,’ then elegantly floated off into the night time.”
