Cameo

November 14th, 2008

I usually bartend at a bar once a week in the upper east side.   There was this one night where this guy would NOT stop staring at me.  I asked him if he needed anything..and he just said:

“I’m sorry, I just can’t stop staring at you…you look like Grace Kelly  – (in case you didn’t know she’s an actress from the 50s) – Me, thinking to myself, has no idea how I would even look like her even from a side profile.

He then proceeds to whip out his phone and show pictures of her, which I thought was weird.

But what really surprised me was when he gave me a napkin that said:

“Invitation to Brunch – but only if Grace Kelly makes an appearance”

And his number right below that.

Which I thought was a pretty creative approach – he wasn’t annoying so I didn’t bother telling him I had a boyfriend (of course I had no intention of ever calling him, but I just wanted to humor him)

I swear – guys are becoming more and more creative in the pick-up department.

  1. Minus the staring, I think that was kind of cute.

  2. LOL I agree that it’s definitely creative, but also moderately unhealthy and totally creepy. Why does he walk around with photos of Grace Kelly in his phone? And then would he call you Grace, even in bed?
