“I can see you”: Ryan Reynolds Left 1 Fan Mortified after a Witty One-Liner Turned Into a Creepy Greeting in front of the Deadpool Actor
- A fan, feeling nervous, awkwardly said, "I can see you," when meeting Ryan Reynolds.
- The Hollywood star gently patted the fan’s shoulder and asked trying again next time.
- The fan valued Reynolds' kindness and realized he needed to speak better.
Meeting a celebrity can be an amazing experience, but sometimes things don’t go as planned. For instance, imagine waiting for hours to see your favorite star, only to find they’re in a hurry and don’t have time for a real chat.
Or maybe something awkward happens that spoils the moment. Even the most exciting dreams can sometimes have unexpected hiccups. That’s exactly what happened to a fan who met Ryan Reynolds. Though he was starstruck at first, he later realized something after meeting the Canadian actor.
Meeting the Deadpool Star Becomes an Awkward Moment for a Fan
A fan shared a funny story about meeting Ryan Reynolds before he became synonymous with his Deadpool character. The fan wanted to say something clever like, “I can see why you ordered that,” but when he actually spoke to him, all he managed to say was, “I can see you.” That’s when Reynolds looked at him and asked if he wanted to try again. The fan awkwardly repeated, “I can see you.”
Because, as he said, that’s all that could come out of his mouth. Obvious reasons—since it was Ryan Reynolds he was meeting! The now 47-year-old, being nice, patted the fan on the shoulder and said, “Maybe next time, pal,” before leaving. The encounter made the fan realize that he needed to work on his speaking skills.
The father of four is undeniably one of the nicest guys in Hollywood. He’s got a knack for using humor to make people feel comfortable, and he did just that in this situation. Reynolds, ever the gentleman, noticed the fan was nervous and didn’t know what to say.
Instead of making the fan feel worse, he gently gave him a boost. It’s clear he wanted to make sure the fan didn’t feel awkward, proving once again that Reynolds is a master at turning nervous moments into feel-good ones.
Ryan Reynolds’ Awkward Encounter with a Fan Whose Wife Was “Half Dead”
On an episode of The Graham Norton Show, Ryan Reynolds shared a funny but strange story. He was on a plane when he saw a newlywed couple. Before the flight took off, the wife suddenly became “violently and horribly ill,” much worse than just needing a sick bag.
People around them started to panic, and she was taken away on a stretcher. As she was being wheeled out, her husband, still excited to see Reynolds, shouted, “Deadpool! No way! High five!” The star was hesitant to high-five him because he was worried about the wife’s condition.
“By the way, your wife is like half dead,” Reynolds said (recalling the incident). “Help her. Help her, man.” He thought the husband should focus on helping her. Despite the unusual situation, Reynolds said it was a memorable and surreal moment, and he hopes the couple is doing well now.
