I went to see RnR in London and as I was walking past the stage door, he walked out of the door. I am only 5" 2" and he is very tall. He stopped to sign an autograph for some people who were waiting outside the door then started to rush past me. I grabbed his arm (gently obviously) and asked if I could take a picture of him. He said he was in a rush but I could take a quick pic. I muttered something about him probably hating people taking pics of him. And he he said no not really and actually he liked it more than he let on. Then he talked about the play. ;D He suddenly looked at me and realised that I had stopped taking his pic and asked "Are we done?" I nodded and he said he'd blame me if he was late and then with a wink he ran across the road. He is so beautiful.

Great story, dp! You are so lucky to have met him in the flesh! You're definitely in the right place here! We're all rather nuts for the lovely man.

Hi and welcome again, dp! Rufus is indeed a lovely man. And even more handsome up close than in his photos, wouldn't you agree? Enjoy exploring!

Hi, dp. Just jumping in late to say welcome and thanks for the great story about your close encounter with Rufus! Hope you are enjoying yourself here.
LOL! Entirely understandable. If I had taken it, it would have been a view of his shoes, since I would have fainted dead away!

I met him outside the Royal Court Theartre in London July 2006. He did seem quite slim yes, don't know why. He is beautiful though, really breathtaking.
