Austin Butler, Hollywood’s shining star and our very own relatable goofball, recently admitted that he’s just as prone to fanboy moments as the rest of us mere mortals.

Picture this: the 32-year-old heartthrob from *The Bikeriders* had an encounter that left him so flustered, he might as well have been a teenager at a boy band concert. Despite his superstar status, Austin found himself in full-blown shy mode, all because of another A-list celebrity.

During a chat on TODAY, Austin spilled the beans about a recent run-in with none other than Ryan Gosling. But did they share a bro-hug or exchange cool nods? Nope! Our Elvis sensation went full ninja and actively avoided the encounter.

β€œI was just telling this story yesterday about getting starstruck by Ryan Gosling recently,” Austin confessed, probably blushing. β€œIt’s when you don’t expect to see somebody… So I saw him outside of a hotel that I was staying in, and I had to go into another door.”

Yes, you read that right. Austin Butler, the guy who played Elvis, ducked into another door to dodge the swoon-worthy Gosling. β€œI couldn’t say hello. I grew up admiring him so much,” he added, probably kicking himself for the missed opportunity.

When reminded that he himself is a huge celebrity, Austin’s response was adorably humble: β€œI know. But that doesn’t feel real.”

Even Hollywood’s finest can turn into shy schoolkids around their idols. So, the next time you trip over your words meeting a celeb, just remember: Austin Butler is right there with you, hiding behind a hotel door.
