50 People Share Their Family's Most Cherished Celebrity Pictures
"Did Grandma leave you her framed hunk Albert Einstein photo?"
Unless you live in a big city like LA, you don't always get to see a celebrity. When the moment comes that you do cross paths with one, it can be a fun story to politely ask for a selfie with them.
It's a delightful anecdote to share with your family that you once met someone at a random restaurant. These kinds of stories, though silly, are often told with glee at family gatherings.
The lucky ones who have the opportunity to take pictures with celebrities treasure those moments. Whether you like to admit it or not, you can't wait to tell someone you know about your celebrity experience.
Before the age of the internet, people used to have those photos printed out and placed in albums. Now, we simply share them on our social media pages, often accompanied by a heartfelt or witty caption.
The website Awkward Family Photos encourages users to share their, well, awkward family photos. One of the more popular tags is photos with celebrities.
Some share genuine pictures with famous people, while others share old photographs of their family members who resemble celebrities. This is a compiled list of those photographs that you might enjoy!
