When Worlds Collide: Celebrities Mingle With Royals

We may sometimes think of the British royal family as being celebrities in their own right, but even they can cause Hollywood's top acts to get starstruck. Everyone from Reese Witherspoon to Harry Styles has gotten a chance to meet Queen Elizabeth II and her family, and they all made sure to be on their best behavior. While some of them, like Eddie Redmayne and Tom Hiddleston, got to know royals like Prince William when they went to school together, other stars, like Angelina Jolie, get an invitation to chat with a member of the family due to their achievements in the arts or in the world of philanthropy.
