But try telling that to people from Portsmouth, who have shared with The News their stunning assortment of superstar selfies from over the years.
From Michael Bublé to Taylor Swift, from Pelé to Samuel L Jackson and Debbie Harry, the list of celebrities they’ve met is so incredible we simply had to share it with you.
Admittedly not all 35 snaps in this gallery are smartphone selfies, but each one captures the moment someone from Portsmouth met one of showbiz’s top names.
Taken a picture with someone very famous yourself? Email it to [email protected], telling us who it’s with, where and when, and we may share it in a later gallery.
