The ultimate awkward moment.
Through my ~research~, I’ve discovered that celebs often reject other celebs when it comes to hugs, autographs, selfies, pictures, and more.
It’s a perplexing phenomenon — the celeb-to-celeb rejection — so here’s 16 times that happened. Enjoy:

Jerry later explained to Extra, “I don’t hug a total stranger.” Kesha talked about the incident with Sirius XM Hits. “I felt like I was 5 years old. Oh, I instantly was like, ‘Oh, fuck me!’ And I, like, somehow ended up in my very own episode — mini-episode — of Seinfeld for, like, five seconds.”
