Many of us have daydreamed of running into our favorite actor or artist in a store, on our way somewhere, striking up a casual conversation or simply spilling our love and adoration to them right then and there. Well, last July one girl got incredibly lucky to sit next to her favorite musician, however, to her own disappointment Alicia was unaware of it. Dotan, the musician in question, shared the story with his Twitter followers, live-tweeting the experience.
The 31-year-old Dutch singer-songwriter was on a plane when he noticed that the girl sitting next to him is listening to his album. As they started chatting, it quickly became clear that Alicia did not recognize him. While trying to throw some hints, the musician shared the experience with his followers and eventually decided to go with one user’s suggestion to leave her a note. Read down below how the situation unfolded and how the girl reacted in the end.

What do you think ?
well this is adorable. from both sides. hopefully she'll get to go backstage and finally meet him again...
That would be so incredibly awesome for the both of them (and her mom).
Turns out it's all fake... https://tinyurl.com/y7444oow
Too bad it turned out to be a story made up by Dotan himself. Dutch newspaper did some research and has evidence of at least 140 troll accounts by die hard fans. Confronted Dotan, amongst other things he admitted that he made this story up. Sad sad man.
It's a hoax, the guy is all faking this crap.
This is rather sweet. It's great to meet someone you admire, but a fun memorable story that each person will remember is very special :)
I agree.
Although, technically, she didn't "meet him".(insert Crazy face emoji here).
And it is a fake story fabricated by the artist himself (insert crazy face emoji here)
I have always been terrible at remembering the faces of the people so I am sure that if all my favourite musicians would be in a same place with me I would not recognise them. I once recogniced one celebrity on a street only because he always had so weird hairstyle. But if he would have had a hat I probably would not have recognised him. :D
Me, I'd be like "oh, that person kinda resembles *insert name*, eheheh, cute" - and that's it. I'm not that bad in remembering faces, but when there is someone you only know from photos and videos, there's no chance I'd recognise them in a totally random situation, without the given situational context. Besides that, there's always the anxiety of 1) appearing rude and disturbing that person; and 2) making yourself look like a fool, because there's people out there who troll fans of certain celebrities they're mistaken for.
Me too - 10 years ago, I was sitting in a theatre next to the actress Isabelle Huppert and I only noticed it at the break.... I did' nt dare talking to her because the reasons you mentionend - she was at a theatre, enjoying the play and who am I to disturb her? Everybody has a right to have some privacy
I'd like to think that if I was sitting on a plane next to George Clinton or Cardi B. I would recognize them! However, there are some Jazz Artists that I might not recognize so readily.
