Just got a famous actresses' number. Would a young trader have any chance with a hot rich actress?
Just got back from a quick lunch break, first one i've had in 6 months not at the desk. I'm a 25yro quant trader/geek at a well known hedge fund in NYC and I pull in around $250k-$500k, all in, depending on the year. I was just at a bar downtown and this well known 23yro actress came in (not going to say who). Not knowing she was THE actress, I told her she looked like a gorgeous famous actress when she and her friend sat near me. (HINT: She was in a popular spy tv series) I know I know, you think i'm fucking crazy.
For about 15 mins she never revealed who she REALLY was and we just talked for a bit. I was in a pretty nice suit and she asked me where I worked and if I was one of those "tech start up boys, rags-to-riches" type thing before telling me she worked in "entertainment". I said no, I worked in finance.
So anyways, still not knowing who she really was, I asked for her number. She gave it to me. Didn't want to be bullshitted, I called her right then to make sure it was legit and so she had my number as well. Then I got up to leave... and some nearby NYU college kids started hounding her like asking her for an autograph and shit. She turns to me and smiles then looks away and im walking out the door like HOLY SHIT.
SO.....tell me right now that was all some upcoming reality show where actresses try to land dates with normal people. but what the fuck was that? would a famous actress really consider some up-and-coming finance asshole like us?
In before cool story bro.
This.
Also, if true story, quit posting on here and try to call her like a boss.
number/name or it didnt happen
Lol Andy
Rule of the internet.
Here's an idea for you, stop posting questions on WSO about your dating life and just call her tonight for dinner.
and here's some helpful info for you - tom brady's theory on how to get a 2nd date from a supermodel:
Why wouldn't a person have a shot with a hot/rich/actress? Girls are all the same. The main thing is to not make like it is a big deal for her to have money, or for her to be successful, and to just treat her like a normal person. If you are a cool dude, she'll probably take that for what its worth. I know several attractive women who were set to inherit 100M+ who have dated guys who were of far less wealthy (and frankly physically attractive) backgrounds. People who are successful/rich seem to take it as being less important than people who aren't at that level yet.
All that player/mind game sort of stuff just kills me.
no
cool starry bra.
Can anyone guess the actress he's talking about? I don't watch TV so I have no idea...
Yvonne Strahovski?
lol he said she’s 23. Yvonne is 37 so swing and a miss there!
To be fair to him, Yvonne was only 30 when he suggested her
Assuming you're not just trolling:
You obviously had a connection and made an impression. She gave you her number so you definitely have a shot. She also knows that you legitimately didn't know that she is who she is, so you were just a chill dude chatting up a pretty girl. That's probably worth a lot to a chick who is used to people falling at her feet because she's famous. I'd say you have a solid shot at making something happen here. Good luck. Closest I ever got was banging an extra on Titanic.
my opinion of you just went down, shouldnt have admitted that
I'm just talking about actresses. You wanna talk famous lays? I spent a pretty hot weekend with Leona Helmsley when she got out of the can in '94. Did her at a Motel 6 just to show her who was boss.
aint nothing like Miami heat.
name or gtfo
NYU kids asking for her autograph?
Are you talking about Kristen Bell? She graduated from Tisch from NYU.
Why'd you throw your comp in there?
HAHAHA... he was just adding a data point for all the college kids to go crazy over
You're a 25 year old who was born on May 1 1980? You must in fact have some pretty elite quant skills to pull that off. I'd say fuck hedge funds, you should be in the time travel business. Chicks really dig time travel.
Don't listen to all the haters, I've heard of a few stories about guys in our industry dating celebs. If you said it was Angelina I would call BS. Just play it like you would with any other girl you were dating. I would venture to say the minute you put her on any type of pedestal it's game over.
Dude, if you want this to last beyond the first date, you really should take this post down and just get to know them. It's thrilling, but realize that they like YOU and they want that from you as well. If you turn this into something that it's not, they'll drop you in a heartbeat.
THIS.
You registered an account an hour ago just to tell us this story?
Two responses: 1) troll 2) cool story bro
i think its a real post though..
I got Betty White's phone number once. Don't see what the big deal is.
My girl don't have a cell phone, not even touch tone. She rotary.
Did you tap it, dawg?
This thread is useless with out pics! :)
jkjk, we should come together and try to figure out who hes talking bout!
"Not gonna name who, but here are a shitload of hints so you can figure it out"
bro, op cant be 4 real man u know that
I almost got Brooke Burke's number. It was about 10 years ago and it snowed like crazy in early/mid November when she was signing her calendar at FYE near Rock Center. Nobody was on line and when I got to the front she looked up and smiled at me and asked what my name was and what I wanted her to write.
So I told her my name and asked her to put down her number and where I should pick her up later for dinner. She did not even look up again at me and started to write what I assumed was going to be something along the lines of "To NAME, Much Love Brooke".
A second later she stops and giggles, shakes her head and looks over at one of her people and says "I was about to write down my number. People have been asking me to write down the craziest things all day". I told her it was the holidays and she should be giving and continue with the number-giving. She smiled and signed with some canned standard message and I took my calendar and went on my way.

also LOL at Ravenous
Ouch. Goddam smokeshow.
he should time travel to before she got famous
We have a winner
[*Probably NSFW-ish]
OP, how does it feel to know that we saw her topless before you?
I'm calling Fugazi on this. Name her or get the fuck out
Fonseca is 24, not 23.
my guess is america ferrara
I've smashed Pauly D's ex and Rob Gronkowski's sidepiece...do I have herpes?
Upskirt snapshot or it didn't happen.
LOL SB +1
it's Miley y'all!!!
^ Good call...no clue on who this could be. Popular spy series? Thought of Homeland but no hot 23 year old's there...
OP should just gain credibility by just coming out with it.
And her number while he's at it
omg i hope its Selena!!!!
http://www.imdb.com/video/hulu/vi665952793/
at the very least he can let her know how to hedge her acting skillz
BEYONCE OR BUST BRO
this thread make me vomit
Ok OP. I'm going to bite.
I decided I'm not going to post why or how I know what to do..or specifically what you should do (you can PM me for that). But remember this. First-most famous people do not date other famous people-contrary to belief (but they DO date important/powerful people-and that definition can change depending on the person). Second-most famous people have friends who are not famous but again are important/powerful.
PM and I'll give you some background stories and what you should do here specifically-but you can pull this off in any numbers of ways if you remember that she (at the moment) assumes you are just as fun/rich/popular as her other guy finance/tech start up friends (yes she has friends like this already).
Last note-if she hasn't given you her full name (or it is different from her stage name)-never acknowledge you know who she is until a full night out at the least! And when you do find out-shrug it off like "I knew you looked familiar-too bad I don't watch spy shows." She will feel more comfortable hanging out with you as a person and not as a famous actress.
Good luck bud
Funny story of my own - I lived relatively close to a well-known actress and happened to see her every once in awhile leaving my building. Ended up getting her number and going out for a drink a few times. I think "famous people" like having a normal connection to people but it became pretty clear there was no chance of anything happening, especially when she moved out of the city not too long ago. I think in a way though people in entertainment and whatever are drawn to Wall Street guys so it's definitely not impossible. I also didn't know who she was until a buddy of mine told me when he saw me with her. Go for it man.
Seriously considering buying some credits to SB for that one.
SB'd
Dammit BH, as if we (the WSO-chat community) didn't already have reason enough to believe you're secretly (on your way to becoming) The Most Interesting Man in the World! Kudos.
Yeah, BlackHat has made me hate my life
lol troll
i got trolleyed by D-Wade and LeBron in Miami one time....and I'm a dude.
Just proves to everyone that celebs go for normal guys
Don't let LeBron go down on you unless you're into choking.
keep it secret, but he was chokin' on me
girl, why you trippin'?
girl, girl, why you trippin'?
Good stuff Swagon and Nouveau.
Two questions:
1) Spy series ended - as in finished its run for the season or completely ended? (Only series I can think of is Alias & Chuck thats completely ended)
2) Who did you say she looked like?
I do not believe a smokeshow like Fonseca would simply hand out her number.
This guy is a 25 year old quant who makes 250-500K?
Haha, yeah, "depending on the year." That's a big range for about 3 years of work. Anyway, not material to the story. :)
Stop saying smokeshow.
Nah it's just that smokeshow is too vague, generic and impersonal. I prefer a more personal and direct approach like:
I'd rape her
Jennifer Garner? Alias?
no you big dummie jennifer garner is 52 years old
Good point.
i'd still tear dat asss up
i'd still tear dat asss up
melvvvar gets sloppy seconds or it didn't happen
OP how big were her breasts
Bro ask her out to dinner. And being friend zoned by a celeb is never a bad thing lol
Iz gots Cohens #, what now.
Does she do the cat daddy?
Anybody can sleep with/date anybody so of course its possible. Back in the day I think Tara Reid was going out with a dude from bear Stearns...and this was back in the early 200s before she lost her looks and became a joke. In some ways her career mirrors bear stearns now that i think about it...but anyway not to get off topic... My only decent celebrity story is that i once got very drunk with Kirsten Dunst and a few of her friends at Gemma the restaurant in the bowery hotel....this was in her pre-rehab days and she was really fukked up and looked horrible. More like a burn-out hippie-type girl then what she looks like in the movies.
This is why you don't call back on the same night. Don't be this guy.
^ LOL
you amateurs. if the chick is willing to bang you it doesn't matter if you wait 3 hrs, 3 days or 3 fortnights to call back.
OP, go split this cockholster in half and make some good use out of your god-given sex rod.
What country is she from?
I'm surprised you didn't recognize Angela Lansbury until she left the bar. Did her phone number have a street address in it and require the help of an operator to function properly?
I'm betting my job on that it was Fonseca. he said she was 23. fonseca is 24. close enough. one of them is lying about the age for anonymity.
It wasn't Gabrielle Anwar from Burn Notice was it?
I'd bang that like a screen door in a hurricane. Ever seen Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead? Epic smokeshow.
lol this thread is cracking me up. Good thing you threw your comp in there so we can advise you when to call her.
Agree with posts above, get off the internet and get a hold of this chick.
Whgm45 - We can only assume that yes, you do indeed have herpes amongst other rare and awesome infections.
Do we have a name?
Provide proof through posting the voicemail greeting online.
He's full of shit. Why post about it, bragging to a bunch of strangers he'll never see?
I am certain this dude is completely full of shit, but it is true that these famous actresses typically date non-hollywood dudes. I have a good buddy of mine that that is a fairly famous actor in a tv series. As a result, I end up hanging out with a lot of other actors/actresses that he has become friends with (I'm in Socal).
Almost all of the chicks are dating regular dudes. Dudes that would shock you no less cause they aren't the 6'4" underwear models or anything like you would expect for a hot young actress. They are average guys that are actually really chill and don't care what the chick does (at least thats how almost every single one i've met has some off).
However, almost every single one of the chicks met her guy through friends and not randomly at a bar. Not saying it's impossible, but I am saying that it's super unlikely since they would have their guard up real high and would prob doubt that you don't know who they are if they're actually famous.
call tomorrow.. ok posted 5/10 so call today or asap. she'll be busy with stuff and probably wont deal with playing with the game.
like what other said.. just treat her like a normal person. you're a finance guy vs shes an actress so currently you have the more stable income.
you said she's also up and coming so feed into her insecurities sometimes. ask her to dinner cut the drinks crap.
i have nothing else for you.
please come back and update us.
can't tell if serious.. Proof and you can be inducted into the WSO hall of fame (not that I have much say :P)
I was going to say Piper Perabo but since you said 23-year old, um...not so sure. But congrats and call her!!!!
The OP hasn't posted anything since the thread opened. One of the more successful trolls in WSO history.
i like how you guys are telling him to reveal who she is or post some picture. im sure doing so would completely blow any chance he had with her if just ONE of her friends read this website and sent her the link. my hunch is still on fonseca being the actress and that he wont reveal anything until she rejects him after a few dates lol
Do 25 year quant traders really pull in $250-$500k? Sorry, I'm not knowledgeable in this aspect, but damn that's a huge compensation.
Successful troll is successful
What kind of fuckboy-beta thinking is this?
This is BS there is not popular spy series in the US that has a 23 yr old chick in it
lyndsy fonseca from Nikita
But if you are full of shit, it was obvious when you put her number in your phone and didn't include her name... You say you didn't identify her until NYU kids stormed her, but what kind of dumbass doesn't ask for her name for your phone?
She is 25
I don't ask for names...I usually text and call off of phone numbers.
uhhh... what?
He prob just got her first name, connor - which is pretty common. Also, even if he did get the full name, who the fuck knows who she is? You're gonna tell me you actually watch nikita?
I had to look up "women in spy shows" to find her. Even then, was pretty oblivious.
Figured it out.
Nikki Blonsky.
Even Travolta looked better than her
SHE'S A GODDAMN SMOKESHOW. A REAL SMOKESHOW I TELL YA. I WANT TO SMOKE WHILE SHE PUTS ON A SHOW SO WE CAN HAVE A SMOKESHOW WHILE SHE'S A SMOKESHOW @LYNDSYFONSECA #SMOKESHOW
I do Not like you
This is either OP or Connor...I cant decide
I've noticed all it takes for a successful troll on WSO is the mention of a pretty girl...
SWAG UP GENTLEMEN...jesus
all an actress is is some piece of poon who was selected through the random chance filter and the casting couch filter.
LOL
Really? 19 month bump to say "LOL"?
my only celeb story is that i drank an old fashioned (extra cherry juice) with Harrison Ford at the Park Hyatt hotel bar in midtown on 57th a few years ago. He was pretty quiet. i think he was doing some interview for a movie that just came out.
Meh, Hollywood hasn't made a great movie in decades and most actors spend their time virtue signalling on social media.
Not sure if it's worthy it, assuming it's true.
lol
Never Happened.
What's the difference? In any case, it's cool.
