Simon Cowell
A mum and daughter duo had their day made when they ran into Simon Cowell in the countryside.
The mum stopped the car in the middle of the road, with the daughter, named Bethany, filming as her mum swiped madly though her phone to try and find the camera app.
"I'm being so uncool, Simon," the mum told the X-Factor star, to which he responded, "You're not being uncool at all."
The mum said, "This has absolutely made my day, this has - I've gone all nervous."
She finally located the camera app, only to point the camera directly into the star's face rather than take a selfie of themselves together.
The star began burst out laughing but quickly covered his mouth with his hand and composed himself, while Bethany was mortified at her mother's reaction.
"Mum, you can't just put that in his face!" she said amid her laughter.
But it seemed the 65-year-old didn't mind, posing on his bike for the mum.
He even commented on the TikTok, "Lovely to meet you! Simon x."
Bethany even added the final masterpiece to the end of the TikTok, which commenters replied to.
"She literally just mug shots him," one said, while another added, "HELP the way i was fully expecting her to take a selfie with him and not just take a pic of him."
"Why is that actually a great picture he should post it," one added, while another said, "How lovely that he waited and was so kind ❤️🙌".
Selena Gomez
One Aussie superfan's reaction to seeing all of her efforts come to fruition was caught on camera.
Sophie was such a huge fan of singer Selena Gomez that she even created a fan page in an effort to get her to come Down Under.
When the singer finally did come to Sydney for her Revival World Tour in 2016, Sophie thought she was recording a video of herself singing for a fan project organised by Kyle and Jackie O.
Imagine her surprise when her bedroom door opened and she locked eyes with the superstar herself.
After getting to hug the star, getting her autograph and taking a few selfies, Sophie had the time to take it in.
In tears she said, "I can't believe she took the time to come and see me."
Kylie Minogue
Kylie Minogue gave one of her loyal fans the shock of his life when she spotted him in the crowd on her way to a Pride event in Los Angeles.
The Aussie superstar, 56, saw a man wearing a Padam Padam T-shirt, the name of her hit song, and stopped the car she was driving in to say hello.
"Excuse me sir, excuse me, I just want to say Padam to you!" Minogue says in a clip, which she shared to her TikTok and Instagram page with her millions of followers.
The man, who at first was in disbelief, replied: "Shut the f--k up up, I love you, stop! Can I take a photo?"
Minogue happily took a photo with the fan before driving off and clapping.

Chris Martin
Saundra Glenn was already a fan of Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and that was before he gave her a lift.
In an interview with the BBC, Glenn, 64, said she was headed to Radio 1's Big Weekend music festival when osteoarthritis and "a dodgy right hip" caused her to have to pause her walk on the way to the accessibility box office.
While she was resting against a fence, Glenn said, a black Mercedes pulled up alongside her and a woman inside the vehicle offered her a ride.
"The door opens and I said, 'Oh, that's Chris Martin, I can't get in with him' and they said 'Yes, you can'," Glenn told the BBC.
She made Martin laugh, Glenn recalled, when she told him, "I'm 64, Chris, I don't do festivals, I've come just to see you and now I've seen you and I can go home."
But Martin care didn't end with the ride to the show, Glenn shared.
"When we got to the artist area, he didn't leave me there, he said 'get the golf buggy and make sure Saundra reaches her destination,'" she said. "It's the fact he's conscious of disability, he's such a kind person."

In a video shared to his 390 million Instagram followers, he admitted he's like a "big kid" and making a fan's day is the "best part of fame".
"How are you guys doing? Are you guys doing good?" The Rock says in the clip before posing for a picture for the fans.
"Did you guys go to my house yet?" he asked.
