Man has horrifyingly embarrassing plane encounter with KATE WINSLET

A plane passenger has revealed his very awkward encounter with Kate Winslet after accidentally playing Titanic hit My Heart Will Go On right next to her before realizing who she was.

US-based content creator Chris Olsen took to TikTok to explain the embarrassing interaction that happened on a flight from Cannes to London.

The 25-year-old said that he realized all too late that his AirPods weren’t connected as he played a soundtrack of Celine Dion’s greatest hits.

Other social media users were quick to see the funny side and claimed the actress ‘probably chalked that up to top five weirdest fan interactions.’

The 25-year-old said: ‘I’m trying to rack my brain of where we’ve met before or something like that until then from behind her I see her pull out a script with highlighted lines’

In the clip, which has so far been viewed more than 2.2 million times, Chris talks directly to camera as he relives the scenario.

He begins: ‘I need to start paying more attention to my surroundings because I cannot keep embarrassing myself like this.

‘So today I was on a flight as I am like every day of my life and I see my ticket is for the third row but for some reason I get to the second row and I’m like “great this is it.”

‘There’s this one woman who is already in the window seat and the middle seat between us is empty.’

Chris continues: ‘Now at this point I’m ready to listen to some music, settle in – and who is on my mind but Celine Dion because she canceled her tour and so they were playing a bunch of her songs on the news…

‘What I don’t realize is that my AirPods are not yet connected so Celine starts playing out loud. I’m just kind of skipping through her top hits at this moment.

‘It’s All Coming Back To Me Now plays for a second, I Surrender plays for a second, My Heart Will Go On plays for a little bit and this is all happening out loud but I don’t realize it.

‘But as soon as I do I pause the music – none of it played for that long but you could have heard it if you’re around me.’

The TikTok megastar concludes: ‘I played a second of My Heart Will Go On – best known from the blockbuster movie Titanic – right next to [Kate Winslet]’

The TikTok megastar, who has more than 10.2 million followers, then reveals: ‘At this point the lady next to me keeps looking over at me as if I’ve done something wrong which I have – I’m in the wrong seat.’

Chris said that a flight attendant eventually came up to him and told him that he was sitting in the wrong row.

‘I get up, I go back to row three but as I’m getting up to go and I’m saying sorry to the woman who’s in the window seat I look at her face and I’m like “she looks familiar.”

‘So I’m trying to rack my brain of where we’ve met before or something like that until then from behind her I see her pull out a script with highlighted lines.

‘Then I’m [thinking] wait maybe I don’t recognize her from my life – perhaps an actress?

‘And as Celine Dion continues to play in my ear I realize what is going on. I was sitting next to Kate Winslet – Oscar winner Kate Winslet.’

And dozens of other light-hearted social media users were quick to poke fun at Chris’ misfortune

He concludes: ‘I played a second of My Heart Will Go On – best known from the blockbuster movie Titanic – right next to her.’

Chris then screams into his pillow as he reflects on the embarrassment before uploading the clip alongside a caption that read: ‘KATE IF YOU SEE THIS IM SORRY I DIDN’T KNOW.’

And other social media users were quick to poke fun at Chris’ misfortune.

One wrote: ‘The fact you did this on accident and she probably thought you were MESSING WITH HER is sending me to another dimension.’

Another added: ‘Lol she probably chalked that up to top five weirdest fan interactions.’

And a third said: ‘I literally laughed out loud and hid my face in embarrassment for you… Wonder what she thought.’
