A Vietnamese travel vlogger went about his business seemingly unaware that he was sitting next to one of Hollywood’s biggest names while at a restaurant.
Hollywood is full of many familiar faces you have seen in films and TV shows for decades, but do you think you would notice them if you walked down the street?
Sure, if you are a massive fan, you could pick them out of a lineup of millions, but for some, it may prove to be more difficult.
Recognizing them might even be more difficult if you were in a foreign country and not expecting to see them.

Well, Vietnamese travel vlogger Khoa Pug claimed he had no idea who he was sitting next to, and to be fair, he doesn’t pay the actress any attention in his video.
Recording a video while at a restaurant in Japan, Khoa ate his food and gave his thoughts on the sushi dishes like any other video.
Khoa only seemed to realize who he was next to after filming the vid and uploading it to YouTube on May 11, as he titled the clip: "Khoa Pug sits down to eat with an Oscar-winning Hollywood star..."
The star in question ended up being none other than Black Swan star, Natalie Portman.
And people on social media rightly lost their minds at just how close the vlogger was to Portman.
One user said: “Sitting down to eat with Thor's wife without even saying hello, so annoying!”
Another said: “Thor's wife sat next to him, on this side, be careful, if thunder hits you with a stick, you'll definitely become a lightning superhero... but I have to admit that you're lucky, even when you go out to eat, you meet a superstar.”
Meanwhile, a third simply said: “That’s Natalie Portman she’s so famous. You are so lucky.”
After asking his fans whether they could identify the Thor: Love and Thunder star, Khoa seemingly joked about his confusion with how other people reacted to her.
According to a translation, he commented on his YouTube video about the moment, saying: “I was sitting down to eat and saw customers constantly asking to take pictures of her.
“I was so angry, I thought: 'How strange! The number 1 travel YouTuber in Vietnam is sitting here, not asking to take pictures, but asking to take pictures of the woman next to him.' Who would have thought.”
It isn't clear what Portman was doing in Japan, however, she's been incredibly busy as she was in attendance at the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday (May 17).
