Thank you, Miss Kelly. As families drifted through the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney World, one of the animatronics was just a little too lifelike. Who wants So do I.

He's like, it's me, Drke. I'm like, oh my god. But Drke didn't just stop for a photo.
He actually spent time with her in a very heartwarming visit. I gave him my autograph and he gave me his. An intern at one of Australia's biggest radio stations tossed his preparation questions aside and went straight to ask for a picture.
I just don't want to go home without a selfie with you. Would I be able to? Okay.
And I I thought it might be an opportunity for you to direct us how to take a proper selfie. He did really good considering I'd be struggling to even form a sentence. While in Los Angeles, Conor McGregor kept driving past an apartment with a cutout of himself on the balcony.
One day, he decided to stop and say hi to the fan while stuck in traffic. I'm going to come up to you tomorrow. So, you I'm I swear to God, I'm going to come up to you tomorrow.
You're the man like a cardboard cutout. True to his word, Connor showed up at the fan's house the very next day. Holy man.
How are you? Good. How are you?
[laughter] This is awesome. I got your shoes. You see them right through there with the remix.
Yeah. Just choose. [laughter] As Taylor Swift performed, Ed Sheeran decided to surprise her by blending in with the backup dancers dressed as a clown.

Oh, that's okay. That's fine. Oh, no.
I was actually I was wondering maybe you could do something else for me. Could you threaten me? I I usually do it for a lot of pesos.
I would really appreciate it, sir. Anything? Liam decided to comply with the request, and it was incredible to see his acting skills on the spot.
I want you to listen very carefully, Matthew. Before this night's over, I will kill you. But before I kill you, I will make you suffer pain so unimaginable, you will wiggle and beg [music] and pray for the gift of death.
Eventually, I will give you that gift. But when you wake up in hell, you won't find peace. And well, you know it was convincing when the audience stopped laughing.
While at Universal Studios, Jimmy Fallon and The Rock were surprising fans, but nothing could have prepared them for the reaction of one guy who'd been a diehard fan since he was five. Can we get the picture? [cheering] No tears.

YES. First of all, a nice Post Malone proved he's the type of guy who'd give you the shirt off his back when a fan asked him for his guitar. YOU WANT A GUITAR?
It's like a $5,000 guitar. So, you have TO PROMISE ME. YOU GOT TO PROMISE ME THAT you're going to take care of it and play.
Okay. After making sure the fan was actually going to use the guitar, he went out of his way to get it. Fans had to do a double take when the barista at a coffee shop looked a little too familiar.
