WATCH > Man Tricks People Into Thinking He's Famous: Would You Fall for It?

I watch waaaay too many movies and TV shows for my own good even if only for one episode. I can usually tell when people have been in something else before. If I saw some dude with the cameras followling him around I'd probably think he was being stuck up having all those people follow him and just walk away.

Loved it. Saw it this morning on GMA.

Bagel nose booger.

I am not into celebrities anyway.

Discussed this at work today. The point made was that where we live, and taking cues from our grandparents, never was celebrity impressive (unless pride from some local becoming locally well known). Working in the hospitality business (and also trucking) I have had more than enough "celebrity" encounters...the luster fades and they become just another person on the street...those that are approachable are great to talk with; those that have a gaggle following are best to be avoided. Would I be fooled?...Probably not.

"I heard his first single and it was good, I can't remember the name of it, though" Wow. Just wow. I like some celebrities, but mostly I don't even notice them. If I saw him, I'd probably just walk right by, and if there was a fuss, I'd look, see I hadn't a clue who he was, and walk on. I don't understand how having bodyguards and paparazzi instantly makes you famous, and a good kind of famous. Imagine finding out the next day that he was a criminal, and people kept wanting photos saying they were a fan? The embarrassment :L I really thought people thought about things a lot more... I mean, I'm not one to think EVERYTHING I do through, but simple things are supposed to come naturally :P

i would be like who is this guy? and how did everyone else knew who he was? unless they are actors.

i would tell him to prove it

Yeah, but look at those skags that he drew. . . . Those women were mooses.

NOT ATTRACTED TO STRANGERS...

Not because im too smart, I just honestly wouldn't care.

If I didn't recognize whomever it was...nah!

Gee, Brett must have lots of money to throw it away on this ass-stunt.

all those people are going to feel like such complete idiots when they go home and try to look him up! xDD

If I recognized a celebrity, I might say hello. But I do not make it a point to fall all over someone just because someone else thinks they are famous. If you respect someone's work tell them.

I don't pay attention to celebrities. I doubt I would recognize a real celebrity in public.

It doesn't take much to fool most people. I fooled a bunch of people in Austin once into thinking I was a local DJ. We were at a show sponsored by the radio station and I ran into the actual guy who was trying to get out of the area but he had a bunch of swag to give away still. he gave it all to me and said "hey. pretend to be me and get rid of this stuff!" I was drunk and so i was like cool! Most of the people believed me LOL. It was kind of fun.

They are just regular people but i still would have been like. "o wait ive seen him somewhere"...

No, but really, it's not because I'm smarter than that, it's because I don't care. Even if it was someone famous, I'd just turn my head and that's it. I'm just the type who doesn't care.

I'm pretty gullible haha

The ones who do are the very ones who worship celebrities. I don't. Celebrity worship is sickening.

Yeah I'm thick lol.

It's actually easy to do, I see guys do it all the time at bars where they have a friend act like he's their driver and submissive to him in order to pick up women.

Would just walk away.

If he looked like somebody famous, I would though.

I work in Vegas a lot.. and that is actually a service you can purchase... I see them doing their thing every now and then... ... ... ... Limo ride to your favorite club... 2 bodyguards.. VIP Access with VIP Seating , some fake media interview you on your way into the club and some fake fans to oogle you... It gets them laid almost every time.

I don't follow flashing lights like a stupid bird. >.< I'll leave that to the stupid bimbos.

good for that guy......now he has become FAMOUS! let him enjoy his life, respectfully! better than him NOT getting the attention he needs and becoming depressed or something eh? we are a funny people, we really are!!!! YES! lets help this guy get the ATTENTION he needs now, before its a problem in his life and he goes off the deep end.WATCH > Man Tricks People Into Thinking He's Famous: Would You Fall for It?

THAT BEING SAID, I think this was a good and very necessary prank. You know how obsessed with pop culture some people can be.

lol I totally want to try this think i could make it?

..... ' the Baloon Head ' gal ........ that was the Puurrrfect Example

.................... that couldn't have been a Plant !

Now he's famous for being not famous...

Hell no. I don't give a damn about anyone being 'followed by cameras'. This just goes to highlight how pathetic people in this country are in their obsession with celebrity. Like cattle to the slaughter, you could lead them right in and... done.

.. famous people don't do much for me so I wouldn't care as long as they didn't bother me.

I don't lose my mind when I see someone OBVIOUSLY famous who I don't know.

I don't know everyone in Hollywood; so, I'd be curious.

no most celebrities I would recognize would be zipping around incognito.

Wouldn't really care.
