Reminds me of running into the occasional celebrity during my days in West L.A. in the 2000s and early '10s.

A few impressions:

Beck: Quiet and intriguing.
Tracy Chapman: Shy but sweet.
Robert Englund: Shy but polite; grandfatherly (believe it or not!).
Joshua Jackson: Peevish but dignified.
Michael Keaton: Polite and considerate.
Eugene Levy: Very shy; scared of his own shadow.
Joe Piscopo: Kind and humorous.
Sydney Pollack: Warm and sociable.
William Shatner: Impatient but polite.
Maria Shriver: Thoughtful and dignified; a lot on her mind (this was not long before the divorce).
