How to Flirt With a Celebrity

by: on | in Celebrities | 51 Comments

Have you ever had a searing, clawing, over-the-top crush on Rob, Justin, Zac, Liam or any other super sexy celeb? Then you’ve probably watched in fevered jealousy as they pose with their equally gorgeous girlfriend and thought “I know he’d fall in love with me if he could only just meet me!”  Well darlings, you may just be right.

I don’t like to lie brag, but I’ve dated a handful of celebs including several rock stars, pro athletes and more than one A-list actor. It’s not that I’m a 10 on the hotness scale or willing to throw myself at any guy with 100,000+ Twitter followers—it’s that I learned how to flirt with celebrities of all sorts.

And with these five tips, you can snag a famous fella of your own…

1. Meet Them in the Right Context. Asking for an autograph has never lead to a date. Why? It automatically puts you “below” your celebrity crush and boys want to date their equals, not their fans. Obviously it’s not easy to just bump into Kellan Lutz at Starbucks, but if there’s any way you can run into your favorite dude in a non-fan context, you’ll increase your flirting chances tenfold. But if you do, be sure to…

2. Act Like Their Equal. Um, because you are their equal, DUH! Just because a guy has legions of screeching Beliebers or ten thousand Tumblrs in their honor doesn’t mean he’s better than you are in any way. It just means he knows a few more people, that’s all. The only reason I snagged the boys I have is because I have always been a celebrity in my own mind, and that confidence comes through.

3. Don’t Gush Over Who They Are. But don’t act like you’ve never heard of them, either. Yeah, they won a VMA—and? They lifted the Stanley Cup—so? Guy like a modicum of ego stroking but always remember that you’re their peer, not their fan club president.

4. Ask About Something Other than Their Career. I first bonded with the love of my life, a bassist for a band, over X-Men. I have no idea what made me bring it up, but I did and to my delight, we were both huge geeks and ended up talking for hours. Everyone around them is forever asking about their career, whether it be music, baseball, or their latest role. Switch it up by starting a convo that plays to one of their other interests that reporters never seem to care about.

5. Like Him for Him. Celebrities might not be able to pump their own gas or carry their own groceries, but they can smell a user a mile away. Sure, it’s fun and wild to see a highly Google-able name pop up in your text, but that can’t be the only reason you like him. It’s basically the same as a boy going for you solely because of your looks. Maybe your Prince Charming will come riding down the red carpet, but if you ask me, it’s just as romantic if he’s the boy next door!

    Let me be really honest, I’d be super scared to death to date my celebrity crush, I’m a Directioner(Been here since the start), and I really like Niall, but my issue is how the Directioner family can be really, really protective of the guys(I’ll admit I am protective haha) & even judgemental of the girls they know(whether they are friends or something more). I’m scared my own “family” would stop liking me and hate me just because I’d be with the irish snowflake we love so much. I’d also be scared that the rumours and stuff would affect my own friends and family.

    My Dream boyfriend will be James Maslow from Big time rush. I would like to date him because he likes animals. I thinks he is a really cool and his is really nice. I heard that he has a dog. I can help him with his dog because I always wanted to have a dog. I also heard that James likes horses to. That is like hearing a bell ringing. I wonder if he has a zoo at his house. I wonder how many animals does this pop star have. I can also help out with his dog to because I am lookinf for a job with animals that will be prefect for me. That is why I would like to have James Maslow as my future boyfriend.

    You know, I had these school-girl crushes on these celebrity guys many many many times. I’ve totally grown out of that. I’ve come to realize that the majority of them are in love with THEMSELVES and couldn’t love another human being. Plus, I read your other article on what it’s like to date a famous guy. I get depressed if my bf wants to hang out with the guys for a night instead of with me, I can’t imagine dealing with him running off to perform at some concert for 574927506 girls drooling over him… AAAAHH!!!
