‘Narnia’ has opened my eyes to a lot of things. I feel lucky that I’m able to travel; I’m not stuck in my hometown, meeting the same kind of girls and saying hi to the same people, week after week. There are so many interesting, intelligent girls out there. William Moseley
Hi, I’m Jeff Healy of the Jeff Healy band. Don’t drink and drive. I don’t… you’re blind! Jeff Healey
On the set of ‘Girlboss,’ I had to keep introducing myself as the show runner – literally, ‘Hi, I’m the boss’ – to a lot of my crew. My first AD said, ‘Why do you keep doing that?’ I said, ‘Because I get mistaken for an extra.’ Kay Cannon
Sometimes I – with comedy, it’s like someone liking you in high school. They either do, or they don’t. And when they don’t, they don’t. And that’s it. There are no appeals. You show up, and you’re like, ‘Hi! I’m -‘ and you stumble, and they’re like, ‘It’s over.’ John Mulaney
Pretty much all the drivers I get on with, at least to say ‘Hi’ and have a conversation. But when the helmet’s on, you don’t care who it is. You have no sympathy: someone blows an engine in front of you, if it means you gain a position, then you’re smiling. Daniel Ricciardo
Then you have to be with somebody who understands your job. Understands there are gonna be dollybirds going, ‘Hi I’m Candy,’ and be prepared to ignore that. And also be prepared to be there when you get home. That’s a difficult job. Jay Kay
I got to say ‘Hi’ to Dolly Parton, which my mom thought was kind of cool. Landon Donovan
It’s very strange to go to cities like London and New York. People walk so quickly, they seem to be in a hurry all the time. And you don’t say ‘Hi’ to everyone you meet, and you don’t smile to everyone you meet, because there’s just so many. Which is also very strange. Aurora
When people say hello to me, I feel like maybe I know them from somewhere, because they say, like, ‘Hi! How are you?’ And I’m like, ‘Oh, hi!’ And then I realize, ‘Oh, no, they just think they know me because they watched me in a movie.’ Which is cool, but definitely not a normal thing. Dakota Fanning
Bob Hope was totally regimented. I go in and say a line like, ‘Hi Bob’ and I’d have to do it five times, and then Bob would take me to the writers to say the line different ways. He wouldn’t let me ad-lib. Don Rickles
I got a phone message from Janet Jackson saying, ‘Hi, I love ‘Losing My Edge’, can you do me something funky and dirty like that?’ I can’t really do off-the-peg stuff, so I never called back. James Murphy
Things I am allergic to: people who believe in star signs and think nothing of starting a conversation with: ‘Hi, my name’s Lucy. I’m a Sagittarius;’ rodents (apart from miniature hamsters, which are not in fact rodents but small, breathing, brown balls of cotton wool); and people who go to the gym. Claudia Winkleman
My real name is Elizabeth, but I had a nanny growing up who called me ‘Elizabeanie.’ So from 4 months old, my brothers were, like, ‘Let’s call her Beanie.’ To show people the validity of it, I always say that if I met the president, I would say, ‘Hi, my name is Beanie.’ Beanie Feldstein
Standup comedy was my weird hobby. I would drag my poor parents out to the only open mics that were in coffee shops instead of bars. I’d get up and go, ‘Hi, I’m 17, and I have jokes about matriculation!’ At the time I was like, ‘Why is no one laughing?’ Alexandra Petri
People recognize me. Most people are really nice. Sometimes people say, ‘Hi, Chelsea.’ Chelsea Clinton

Thank you… adjustable baseball caps with no logo on the front and mesh netting in the back, for being a great way to say, ‘Hi, I’m over 80 years old.’ Jimmy Fallon
We have all been there: we see that gorgeous person across the room, and we want to go and speak to them so badly. However, the ‘rules’ of society mean we usually don’t end up doing it, despite our friends’ best efforts to convince us to. Time for a change. Be empowered and say hi! It’s proven that people really like it when you take initiative. Whitney Wolfe Herd
Hi. My name is Debby, and I am a storyteller. I don’t think of myself as an actress. I am more like a face that takes words on a page, and puts them in front of your eyes. Debby Ryan
You create real friendships through a growth process. It’s not just, oh hi, we’re friends! That’s very childlike. True adult friendships take time, understanding, and it’s a plant that needs to be watered and tended to so that it blossoms. Erika Jayne
The first time I’d ever had a go at production or recording, I just recorded in my room. I just put it on Soundcloud because I have family abroad, and I wanted to show them, ‘Oh, hi, Uncle Carl, here’s some music that I’ve done,’ or whatever. Lapsley
If I hadn’t had a baby, a part of me thinks I might have turned up on the red carpets all the time and gone, ‘Hi, it’s me!’ Maybe other people do it because they haven’t got kids and they’ve nowhere else to be. But because I have, I don’t feel like that. Catherine Tate
For me, I met my husband when I was going full steam ahead of what I wanted in my career. We sort of intersected and were like, ‘Oh, hi, hello!’ We were both on our way somewhere to speak and then just kept going together. Lennon Parham
While Person A might believe the kitchen counter provides a reasonable surface on which to place one’s balled-up sweatsocks post-gym, Person B – about to cut up some vegetables on that same counter, perhaps for a meal intended to be shared with Person A – can only read the sockball as a message that says, ‘Hi! I have contempt for you!’ Lynn Coady
One of my earliest memories is being inside the recording studio and I see the shadow of a figure that looks an awful lot like Walt Disney. Then the door opened and Mr. Disney walked in and said, ‘Hi Clint.’ I won’t ever forget that. Clint Howard
When love is gone, there’s always justice. And when justice is gone, there’s always force. And when force is gone, there’s always Mom. Hi, Mom! Laurie Anderson
No one’s forcing me or any other celebrity to take time out of their day to say ‘Hi’ to these fans or do these things. It’s just something we do nine times out of 10 because we love and appreciate our fans. Lili Reinhart
Today, youths say ‘Hi and Bye’ even to their parents. Instead, they should touch parents’ feet as a mark of respect. Rajnath Singh
Whenever I meet someone new, I always extend a hand and say, ‘Hi I’m Lana Condor… Condor like the ugly endangered bird.’ I like to see how people react to that and if they laugh and, indeed, know what a condor is… chances are we’re going to get along just fine! Lana Condor
If I’m tired, I’m trying to still say hi to a fan or still talk to that person ’cause that one meeting with them can impact how they think of me for the rest of their life. RJ Barrett
I am always late because people stop me for autographs and say hi. Natalie du Toit
My mom was a freethinking artist – she was wild and would do anything to get a laugh from me. She’d go in reverse through a drive-through so I could order from the window: ‘Hi, can I get a milk shake?’ Tig Notaro
Yes, people do come across the street to say hi, but as they approach and get near, my perception of space begins to dissolve, and a new interest takes over that is primarily emotional, and with it comes a desire to touch, which may be a human interest, but not the interest of my work. Diego Giacometti
Veterans report that service dogs help break their isolation. People will often avert their eyes when they see a wounded veteran. But when the veteran has a dog, the same people will come up and say, ‘Hi’ to pet the dog and then strike up a conversation. Al Franken
We live in a capitalist society. I think if anyone, in any field, was approached and someone said, ‘Hi! You know that job you are already doing? Would you like to do it next week for quadruple your normal pay?’ Show me one person who would say no. Stormy Daniels
If you want to meet a woman, it’s best just to smile and say hi. Karen McDougal
Digital is a different world because you are sitting at home and a hi tech piece of equipment today is within reach of most people, so they are watching a pretty hi tech version of whatever you’ve done. Ridley Scott
You loan your friend money. You see them again, they don’t say nothin’ ’bout the money. ‘Hi, how ya doin’? How’s ya mama doing?’ Man, how’s my money doin’? Chris Tucker
I miss people. I miss going anywhere and meeting a random person and saying ‘Hi’ and having a conversation about life. I love people. Lady Gaga
I marketed pens – on the phone. But the beauty of the gig was that you had to call these strangers and say, ‘Hi, how ya doing?’ You made up a name, like, ‘Hey, it’s Edward Quartermaine from California. You’re eligible to receive this grandfather clock or a trip to Tahiti.’ You promise them all these things if they buy a gross of pens. Johnny Depp
I’m savoring being in California every minute, learning that traffic is just God’s way of saying ‘Hi.’ Taylor Negron
I went to New York for Fashion Week and girls showed up waiting to see me. It’s funny because there’s a group of girls who I actually recognize because they always show up. It’s nice and I’m like, ‘Hi girls! I recognize your faces!’ It’s just like a feel-good experience. Katie Cassidy
When my wife and I met, I couldn’t talk to her – and my defense mechanism is sarcasm. I belittle someone with verbal pokes and prods. I did it to her out of complete awe. When friends introduced us, I said ‘Hi’ – and turned my back. Later, I called my mom and best friend and said, ‘I think I just met my wife.’ Mike Vogel
I met Porter Robinson in, like, 2016 at Shaky Beats after one of his sets. Me and my friends ran backstage really quickly to try and get him as he was going to his trailer. We said ‘Hi’ really quick, and it was the best 30 seconds of my life; it was amazing. Getting to meet artists like that that have changed my life is super, super cool. Chandler Riggs
When I called ‘Cut 4 Me’ a mixtape, I was thinking about a few elements: One is used instrumentals. The project is more centered around introducing you to an artist; it’s not meant to be seminal. It’s ‘Hi,’ ‘Hello,’ a thing that you first hear. Kelela
Hi, I’m Nadine Velazquez, and my green tip is: recycle. Nadine Velazquez
One thing I cannot stand is when people say, ‘Hi, how are you?’ and they don’t wait to hear how I am. They’re just going through the motions. I say to people: ‘Keep it human. Keep it alive. Don’t turn into a robot.’ You have to hear what the other person is saying clearly. Judith Jamison
I’m not confident in social situations; just going up to someone in a bar and saying ‘Hi’ is going to be even more difficult because they won’t know the real me. They will just know me as a fictional person I play on the screen. Benedict Cumberbatch
I’ll walk around the city, and people will come up to me and say, ‘Hi,’ or ‘Keep up the good work,’ or whatever, and I’ll stop and talk to them. Ryan Howard
I feel like I was kind of raised to be mechanical, like, ‘Hi, I’m Brooke Hogan. I’m Hulk Hogan’s daughter. I like cookies and sunshine.’ Brooke Hogan
I don’t really know a lot of famous people. I’ve met a lot of famous people. If I ran into Tom Hanks today, I would have to remind him who I was and he would then remember me. But he wouldn’t come up to me and say, ‘Hi Dave!’ David Zucker
How do I play the princess thing? I don’t, really. I don’t like talking about it much and find it annoying when people say things like, ‘Oh, you’re the princess.’ One of my best friends jokingly says, ‘Hi, Princess,’ and I say, ‘Shut up.’ It is one of the things that bugs me most in the world. Princess Eugenie of York
Fame can be just so annoying because people are so critical of you. You can’t just say, ‘hi’. You say hi and people whisper’ man did you see the way she said hi? What an attitude. Juliette Lewis
Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love talked trash about the fact that I hooped. I once stopped to say ‘Hi’ before a show, and as I walked away, Courtney yelled, ‘Go play basketball with Dave Grohl!’ Jeff Ament
I have this horrific thing where I’m really bad with names and faces. I have an appalling memory. Someone will come up to me in the street and go, ‘Eddie!’, and I’ll try and give myself time by going into overdrive, ‘Hey, hi! Nice to see you!’ and start a whole conversation because I can’t distinguish between who I know and who I don’t. Eddie Redmayne
I met Icona Pop by chance because we were both recording at the same studio. I was a fan so when I heard they were in the next room, I went to say hi. Next thing I knew, they were on two songs. Big Freedia
Hi, Billy Mays here for… Billy Mays
I think that you may find that Tamera’s a little more vibrant and energetic, but I’m much more likely to go up to a person and say, ‘Hi, I’m Tia, nice to meet you.’ Whereas Tamera is like… well… she’s a little shy. She’s down to earth. I’m more extroverted and she’s more introverted when meeting people. Tia Mowry
It is a little weird now, going over to Heath’s place. It’s like, ‘Hi Heath, hi Nomes.’ Very strange! Martin Henderson
People are really talkative in New York. Someone always comes up to me and says ‘Hi’ during the day. Lana Del Rey
I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, and in spite of what most people might have expected from a young girl growing up deaf, life for me was like one long episode of ‘The Brady Bunch.’ Despite whatever barriers were in my way, I imagined myself as Marcia Brady skating down the street saying ‘hi’ to everyone, whether they knew me or not. Marlee Matlin
I try to go throughout my daily life just as if nothing has changed, but you don’t have much anonymity anymore, which feels really good. People come up, and say hi and they enjoy your work. Adam Lambert
If I was 13 years old and Kurt Cobain tweeted me some advice or even just said hi, my whole world would be affected by that. Mark Foster
My parents are both from Belfast. I have an Irish passport and a British passport, and I go back every summer and every Christmas, and sometimes I pop over during the year to say hi, and, of course, celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Stella Maxwell
I like New York, man – I ain’t gonna front. The only thing I probably don’t like about New York is that, coming from the South, people aren’t hospitable. You tell somebody ‘Hi,’ and they look at you like you’re out your freaking mind. Charlamagne tha God
I’m at that great level where fans will stop and say ‘hi,’ which I love, but the paparazzi don’t care, which is incredible. Katie Featherston
I guess guys are intimidated. I’ve never had a guy come up to me and be like, ‘Hi, you alright? Can I buy you a drink?’ Tulisa
If somebody honks a horn in Cleveland, they’re saying ‘Hi.’ It’s so rare to be honked at in anger. When we have merging traffic, we just interweave. There’s real courtesy. Mary Doria Russell
Someone once asked, ‘What’s your best pickup line?’ I said, ‘My best pickup line is, ‘Hi, my name is Hugh Hefner.’ Hugh Hefner
I think foreign countries really do like it when American artists sing in their language. And when you go over there and say, ‘Hi, how are you?’ in their language, they love it. It makes them feel like you’re doing it just for them. We in America take so much for granted. Natalie Cole
As a Middle Eastern male, I know there’s certain things I’m not supposed to say on an airplane in the U.S., right? I’m not supposed to be walking down the aisle, and be like, ‘Hi, Jack.’ That’s not cool. Even if I’m there with my friend named Jack, I say, ‘Greetings, Jack. Salutations, Jack.’ Never ‘Hi, Jack.’ Maz Jobrani
I’ve always felt toward the slightest scene, even if all I had to do in a scene was just to come in and say, ‘Hi,’ that the people ought to get their money’s worth and that this is an obligation of mine, to give them the best you can get from me. Marilyn Monroe
I’d hate to think that the stereotypical American is someone who just says ‘Hi – bye’ in conversation. That’s how Europeans see us. And I’d like to think that not all of us are like that. Cedric Bixler-Zavala
L.A. is great, but it’s a completely different beast. I go back to Minnesota, and I borrow a bike from my neighbor and go around Lake Harriet saying ‘Hi’ to people. Some of that is missing in L.A. Yara Shahidi
It’s nice to be able to let the fans know that you’re around and say ‘Hi.’ Courteney Cox
I’d like to find someone to procreate with – as sexy as that sounds. If you’re out and about and fit the description, come up and say hi. I won’t bite. Well, maybe a little, if you’re lucky. Chloe Sevigny
My main message is for people to live your life through love. That doesn’t necessarily mean through a relationship. It could be your friends, your family, your workplace, even just walking down the street and smiling, saying ‘Hi!’ Embracing positivity! Karrueche Tran
My part of Brooklyn has always been a very warm neighbourhood, even before I had anything going on in the music industry. When I step out of my house to go for coffee on Saturday mornings, I might say hi to 20 people before I get to the cafe. I think they feel they own me, in a way. Gregory Porter
It’s important to slow down, every now and then, for no other reason than to call someone to say ‘Hi.’ It doesn’t have to be a long conversation. Just calling out of the blue does more to let someone know you still care about them than nearly anything else. Simon Sinek
Hours after I gave birth to my first child, my husband cradled all five pounds of our boy and said, gently, ‘Hi, Sweetpea.’ Not ‘Buddy’ or ‘Little Man.’ Sweetpea. The word filled me with unanticipated comfort. Faith Salie
I guess the worst day I have had was when I had to stand up in rehab in front of my wife and daughter and say ‘Hi, my name is Sam and I am an addict.’ Samuel L. Jackson
If somebody smiles at me on the street, I’m like, ‘Hi, have a nice day!’ Gaby Hoffmann
No one ever bugged Jack Nicholson. When we made ‘Witches,’ and people were standing around to see him, he’d just come out and say, ‘Hi everybody!’ I was lucky enough to go with him to a Lakers game, too, and he was always friendly. No one bothers Jack, because he makes himself so accessible. Veronica Cartwright
Hi, my name is Alexandra, and I’m a netaholic. Alexandra Petri
I became interested in film making at around 16, when I discovered a friend of mine had a HI 8 camera which belonged to his father, which we were forbidden to use. John Carney
I was a very shy child. I remember being in a kindergarten open house with my mother and children saying ‘Hi’ to me, and I still remember feeling this way – but I don’t know why – but I wouldn’t even say ‘Hi’ back. I was that shy. Jim Parsons
When I’m out with my girlfriends at the bar, and I see some young 18-year old boy, just for fun I say, ‘Hi honey. Do you like girls? Do you like girls exclusively? Oh, good.’ Yasmine Bleeth
The absolute base-level thing that you do as a new screenwriter is send out query letters. Literally, you just say, ‘Hi, Mr. So-and-So,’ and you give them a one-sentence description of one of your scripts. You send it out to a list of people you found on the Internet. Evan Daugherty
I’m a person who likes to hang out. I would never go on a blind date. That sounds like the most uncomfortable thing on the planet earth. It’s like, ‘Hi. Nice to meet you. So, what kind of music do you like?’ Date ended. Kirsten Dunst
I’ve always had this American-pie face that would get work in commercials… I’d say things like, ‘Hi, Marge, how’s your laundry?’ and ‘Hi, I’m a real nice Georgia peach.’ Sometimes this work is one step above being a cocktail waitress. Teri Garr
I was introduced to Amitabh Bachchan by Ram Gopal Varma. He said ‘Hello Sudeep’ and I just said ‘Hi, sir.’ Sudeep
I would not understand when people will tell me that ‘Tum hi ho’ has got more than 1 million views on YouTube. I was like, ‘How does it make a difference?’ Later, I would go to YouTube and see songs of Rihanna, Enrique etc. and would see their hits. Then I came to know the importance. Nowadays, you can judge from these sites how big is a sing. Arijit Singh
I’ve gone up to a random guy in a grocery store before and said, ‘Hi, I think you’re cute. Are you single?’ I’m not smooth. I just put it out there. Autumn Reeser
When I came into office, people said, ‘Billionaire? How do they live? What do they eat? How do they sleep?’ Today, they see me on the subway coming uptown. A couple of people say hi, some people smile and nod. Some people just sleep. It’s not an issue. Michael Bloomberg
When I met Christophe Waltz, I was so shy! I was like, ‘Oh, hi! Um, I’m Stephanie!’ He’s one of my favorite actors. Stephanie Sigman
When you’re walking down a street and you are a brown-skinned person or you’re a person that lives in an immigrant community, there’s no differentiating on – solely on the basis of what you look like. They don’t walk down the street saying, hi, I’m an immigrant; I’m here legally or not. Lori Lightfoot
