Sometimes, you meet a celebrity and they make your day. But it can also be awkward. And comedian John Field is much more interested in the latter rather than the former.

This autumn, he asked Twitter users: "What's the worst interaction with a celebrity you've ever had?" From Devi Lovato and Kid Rock to Jessica Alba and Cillian Murphy; turns out, there's no shortage of those.

Of course, we must remember that everyone has a bad day and nobody owes us anything just because we heard them on a stage or saw them on a screen. Plus, some people tend to exaggerate. But with that being said, it's still a pretty entertaining thread to say the least.

We managed to get in touch with John and he was kind enough to have a little talk with us about the now-viral thread.

"I came up for the idea for the tweet after reading a thread of 'bad celebrity interactions' and wanted to tweak the wording just a little bit so people would basically give me answers about where they were the bad people in the stories," he told Bored Panda.

I mean, as far as encounters with Bill Cosby goes, I think you got off pretty easily.

Rude! But to be fair, that's not the worst thing he's done. Probably not even in the top 10 .

My sisters best friend was his "special girl" when he was in town. This was in the early 70's (before cosby show or even fat albert). She asked if we could meet him as we loved his comedy. "The reply was No, he does not meet fans" At that point I lost ALL respect for him ( I was old enough to figure out his relationship)

Dude. Why do celebs do this s**t all the time!? I've heard this same story about like 10 different famous people. Always trying to cut in line and then getting mad when nobody lets them and throwing little tantrums because they're not used to being treated like everyone else.... they're especially not used to being treated exactly how they treat others either. They hate it.

He was probably super sleep deprived. Imagine how often he stayed up all night r**ing women and making sure they didn't wake up and run away. That'd make anyone snappy. Disgusting.

I'm just not going to place this very distasteful crude joke here. Unless I for some reason acquire enough upvotes. An then yeah sure I'll do it. Because it will not be my fault then.

I don't want to know anything about what Bill Cosby is doing at the Fishmonger, especially not the Fishmonger.

Asshat tried to cut in front of me once, too, when I was at the Quaalude store.

After scrolling through the replies, John thinks the funniest story belongs to Andy Richter who had a seriously weird interaction on the set of New Adventures of Old Christine. "It's one of those awkward experiences I relate to."

"As a person who works in a customer service job, I get the sense that when celebs are out in public they have to be 'on' all the time like when I'm dealing with customers, which seems exhausting," the content creator added.

Which is true. Billie Eilish, for example, has had a hard time adjusting to her popularity. "I don't mean this in a necessarily negative way, but I sort of lost my teenage years, because this all started when I was 13," the singer told Dutch channel 3voor12.

"There is no training, there's no like, let me go to a school that's going to teach me how to be famous. Also, that would suck. That would be trash school ... Famous people suck," she added. "Fame is trash."

Okay, David Tennant is the final boss when it comes to celebs for me. I don't think I could speak any English in front of him.

"The original thread I read that inspired my post was about people complaining about 'bad celebrity encounters' and halfway through, it felt like the people approaching the famous people in the story were the rude ones, not the celeb, and so it made me a little sympathetic to people who have the limelight on them all the time," John said.

The man also has a YouTube channel where he explores all sorts of open-ended questions. "I have short sketches and long essays on death and crap!"

I'm just realizing how incredibly invasive those hospital visits they do are. They don't need pretentious royalty visitors.

So he wasn't happy because she insulted him ? What ever happened to manners ? Would you like someone who had never met you but knew your name and decide to take the piss out of it. ?
