But what if a local celebrity becomes a fan of a famous and high-profile international celebrity, such as when they see Angelina Jolie? That’s what TV personality-host Tim Yap experienced when he met the actress.

The Filipino celebrity posted about his short meeting with Jolie on Instagram, which happened while he was watching the Outsiders Musical at the Bernard Jacobs Theatre on Broadway. According to Tim, he tried to stay calm and composed even though he was meeting a big star.
