While mega fame and fortune might sound like a dream to some, you can't deny that being recognized everywhere you go would eventually get on your nerves... Especially if all you want to do is sit down and enjoy a delicious meal in peace.
WWE legend John Cena is certainly no different, after a video of a fan interrupting him during a meal with his friends went viral on TikTok recently.
In the clip, a fan - who goes by the handle @alex99rocks - walked towards 46-year-old Cena, who was sitting down with a friend, before asking him to do his trademark 'You Can't See Me' taunt from WWE.
Cena clearly wanted to be left alone, replying: "Can I enjoy some time with my friends?"
The fan then apologized, to which Cena gives a small smile and a nod before continuing the conversation with his friend. And his response has been praised by fans.
"Cena has always been serious about his private life. It’s hard boundary to set but I respect it," one person wrote.
Another user added: "Just say what's up and that's it lmao. Bros asking him to do something while out with his friends. People gotta learn."
"He's actually really nice but walking up recording is not it," a further comment read.
Someone else chimed in with: "Imagine being bothered all the time just because you are famous. They are people too respect that."
Though, we can't necessarily blame the eager fan for wanting to get up close and personal with Cena, who is rarely seen inside a WWE ring these days. In fact, his only match so far this year was against Austin Theory in April at WrestleMania 39, where Theory successfully maintained his United States Championship.
Since stepping back from his wrestling career, Cena has become more focused on acting, having starred in a range of different movies but, most notably, the Fast and Furious and Marvel franchises. He is also portraying the main character of Peacemaker in the TV series of the same name.
Earlier this year, the 16-time WWE world champion was spotted getting a workout in at a Liverpool gym, given that his acting roles enable him to work and travel around the world.
It's clear, though, from the viral TikTok that, despite his immense fame, he's still human like everyone else and just wants to enjoy a meal with his friends.
