There’s something about celebrities that make us all excited. It could be their status, the characters they play, the movies they were in or simply the way they look. Just the idea of being close to them seems super exciting.

Unfortunately, the same level of adoration can cause trouble. When you’re too excited to snap a photo or record a video, you may not see things for what they truly are.

Check out these 45 extremely funny photos of people who thought they actually met celebrities.

1. Robert Downy Jr.

This man is either a super fan of Robert Downy Jr. or he’s just looking for some attention. From the suit to the glasses, he’s quite prepared to get mistaken as RDJ.

2. Chris Pratt

This guy was so drunk when he saw Chris Pratt. Looks like the other guy was so drunk to protest, too.

3. Ed Sheeran

Not one but three people thought this guy was Ed Sheeran. We’re not buying it.

4. Johnny Depp

Johnny Depp used to wear eyeglasses with black rims and a bit off eyeliner on his waterline. When these women saw this man, they thought they have everything figured out.

5. Mark Wahlberg

The lady was super ecstatic to see the guy. She even yelled his name a couple of times before getting a picture with him. Unfortunately, his name’s not Mark Damon.

6. Maisie Williams

Apparently, this man knows nothing. The real Maisie Williams even had to correct him.

7. Jake Gyllenhaal

Judging by the way this fake Jake Gyllenhaal was hugging the man, it looked like he was quite enjoying the attention. Well, you should take every chance you get to make people happy, right?

8. Tom Cruise

Celebrities are good for business. So when you see one in your restaurant, make sure to take a picture with him and post it for everyone to see.

9. Tupac

To end the speculations once and for all, this guy found proof that Tupac is indeed alive. Apparently, he was found in a barbershop.

10. Vin Diesel

Fortunately, this man didn’t feel courageous enough to walk up to the other table. Otherwise, he’d just be embarrassed to find it’s not actually Vin Diesel enjoying a T-bone steak that night.

11. Larry David

What are the odds of seeing Larry David in a festival with his picture? Well, this man thought it was highly possible.

12. Michael Cudlitz

With that hair, nose, and beard, he could definitely pass as Walking Dead’s Abraham. They look so similar!

13. John Legend

Well, he looks super excited. I wonder how those people broke the bad news to him.

14. Benjamin Franklin

This guy was super lucky. It’s not everyday you get to see someone as historical as Benjamin Franklin. He should have made him sign his $100 bill.

15. Another Robert Downy Jr.

If you saw Chis Hemsworth with someone who looks like RDJ, that’s got to be him, right? I mean, that’s proof right there.

16. Jon Snow

Despite the hair and fur coat, that’s definitely not Jon Snow. This guy knows nothing.

17. Blake Shelton

This is not Blake Shelton. This is definitely not his twin either.

18. Rod Stewart

These ladies must be feeling so lucky. Imagine, they were able to take a picture with someone that’s clearly not Rod Stewart.

19. Ryan Reynolds

It looks like Deadpool has been kicked out of Hollywood. Here is a picture of him in his new uniform.

20. Abraham Lincoln

Imagine being able to sit next to Abraham Lincoln with a good bottle of beer. This is probably how you’ll look.

21. Hugh Laurie

Who do you expect to meet just before a Hugh Laurie concert? Well, someone who’s not Hugh Laurie.

22. Reese Witherspoon

Except for the nose, there’s nothing else that tells this is Reese Witherspoon. Nonetheless, this guy looks super starstruck.

23. Rod Stewart

Did you see the look on this girl’s face? That’s probably one of the reasons why they couldn’t tell her it’s not Rod Stewart.

24. Snoop Dog

Even with those jacket, blings, and sunglasses, it’s not hard to see that it isn’t Snoop Dog. The guy probably needs a new pair of eyeglasses.

25. Usher

This could pass as Usher if the real one stops going to the gym and starts eating takeouts every single meal. Otherwise, it’s a no.

26. Will Ferrell

This guy probably has Will Ferrell’s sense of humor and funny character. His looks? Well, not so much.

27. Hugh Jackman

Here’s what happens when you try to pretend to be someone you’re not. You use your fingers and show them off as claws.

28. Lorde

This guy was so excited to meet his favorite artist. The woman, on the other hand, don’t really care. She’s just there for the photo.

29. Mike Tyson

Was it the tattoo? There’s clearly nothing else that would make anyone think it’s Mike Tyson.

30. Barack Obama

This one is probably more forgivable than the others. The man’s just a bit whiter than the former president.

31. Morgan Freeman

This one is a really good clone. Even the lines on his forehead are quite identical to the real one.

32. George Clooney

This one’s pretty close. We’ll have to wait to hear him talk before we can make a decision.

33. Ryan Gosling

Apparently, everyone who knew kept silent. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have made it in the papers.

34. Bill Murray

The fact that not a single person realized it’s not Bill Murray is quite disconcerting. Even the people who left comments on the post clearly didn’t notice.

35. Bono

This is clearly a good impersonator. He’s got the details right.

36. Ken Jeong

Even with the introduction, Ken Jeong couldn’t let this pass. He even felt the need to say it’s not him.

37. Peter Dinklage

There’s no way this guy’s Peter Dinklage. It’s just another random person and these ladies are too ecstatic to realize it.

38. Calvin Harris

You know what’s more embarrassing than taking a picture with someone you thought was a celebrity? It’s posting the picture on the internet for everyone to see.

39. Bradley Cooper

This guy thought he was getting acquainted with someone famous. Apparently, it was just a random guy.

40. Bruno Mars

No matter which angle you look at, there’s nothing about this guy that makes him look like Bruno Mars. She probably has the wrong celebrity in mind.

41. Toby Mcguire

This man had a hard time convincing people that he was with Spiderman. Well, you can’t really blame them.

42. Another Bill Murray

Looks like someone’s wishing to die for the wrong person. Even if the photo is blurry, you can tell that’s not Bill Murray.

43. Hank Schrader

Hank Schrader is famous for his performance in Breaking Bad. This man, on the other hand, is going famous for not looking like him.

44. Taylor Schilling

This guy is probably not paying a close attention every time he’s watching Orange Is The New Black. How could he think this was Piper?

45. George RR Martin
