Eddie Redmayne isn't one of those actors who is too cool to get starstruck.
In fact, on Tuesday's Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the Oscar nominee and Theory of Everything star said he feels "like a kid in a candy store" at all the celeb-packed awards shows he's been frequenting lately. The 33-year-old Brit added that it's "endlessly exciting" and "completely surreal" coming face to face with "all these people you've long admired."...
"My dad's favorite film is Pretty Woman, so I think as a kid, at a pretty inappropriate age, I was watching Pretty Woman," he said. "So, this moment happens when your name gets read out and it's such an extraordinary euphoria and it's kind of white noise and it all kind of goes into a blur, and then suddenly, there I was sort of hugging Julia Roberts, and then I was meant to be articulate. All I could think of was, 'I want to tell my dad!'"...(x)

"It's sort of kid in a candy store," Redmayne said about hanging with Julia Roberts and Jennifer Aniston. "It's all these people that you've long admired."
"My wife and I love "Friends," the star said of himself and his other half, Hannah Bagshawe.
"We saw Jennifer Aniston at a party and we were just incredibly inappropriate. We so wanted to meet her that we sort of literally stalked about 4 meters behind her for an entire evening."
"Eventually I think she was like, 'OK,'" he joked. "So we got to meet her and she was as beautiful and wonderful as you'd expect her to be. She could've turned around and slapped us for being stalkers."...(x)

And clearly the rules of stylish etiquette has brushed off on the award-winning star has he continues to prove his fashion credentials as he makes the rounds to promote his noteworthy film The Theory Of Everything.

It’s a great privilege for me. These are all actors I’ve long admired.
I would like to dedicate this award, this very wonderful skinny man, to those people around the world
living with ALS. To those who have lost their lives to this brutal disease. In preparing to play Stephen,
That’s why I’m incredibly grateful to them.
To Stephen and Jane, back in Cambridge, thank you for allowing someone who gave up 
science at14 years old, to enter your orbit. Thank you for entrusting this wonderful troupe 
of people on Table 2, with your formidable story.
