We often forget that celebrities are just average people at the end of the day. Just like us, these celebs do everyday things, like shower, fight with their partners, and yes, pump their own gas. Somehow, pictures of celebrities doing "normal" things like pumping gas never fail to amuse us. Because for just a second, we get to see celebs without all the makeup and bright lights, and we see that in all honesty, they're not that different to ourselves. Of course, some celebrities don't even pump their own gas. Some have even forgotten how to do it!
But there are some celebrities who strive to be as normal as possible, even if that means stepping out of their cars and exposing themselves to the paparazzi who follow them around. Some celebs have been caught in some pretty embarrassing situations, and the gas station seems to be a prime location for these incidents to take place. Following we'll take a look at 10 embarrassing photos taken of celebs pumping their own gas.
10. CONAN O'BRIEN LOOKING AVERAGE AS HE PUMPS GAS
Conan O'Brien is a celebrity we all know pretty well, and this star is seen pumping his own gas in a pretty average outfit. As Just Jared reports, the star had higher ratings that Jay Leno back in 2010, which is when these pictures were taken.
The star looks a little less glamorous than his usual self, but it's definitely not the most embarrassing picture.
Conan is seen here wearing plain jeans, a polo shirt, and a pair of designer sunglasses. But it's the star's hair which makes him seem the most average. Gone is the perfectly styled hairdo we're used to seeing on his show, and it's replaced by a slightly bedraggled mop of hair twisting sadly in the wind.
9. OPRAH DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO USE A GAS PUMP
Another talk show host that was spotted pumping her own gas was none other than Oprah Winfrey. This celebrity needs no introduction, and she's established herself as one of the most popular hosts in television history. Everyone's watched her show at least once in their lives.
Although it's pretty obvious that Oprah can't quite figure out how to use the gas pump, she made no attempt to hide this embarrassing moment.
This picture was actually posted on Oprah's own website, Oprah, and it was all part of "Oprah And Gayle's Big Adventure." The star commented on the incident, saying "I feel kind of stupid not being able to pump gas, but I thought maybe they'd changed the pumps since I last pumped. The pumps aren't the same as they used to be."
8. EMMA STONE ROCKS YOGA PANTS WHILE PUMPING GAS
Emma Stone is probably one of the biggest names in acting these days, and she's been incredibly successful over the last few years. She was the highest-paid actress of 2017, and she also won an Oscar for La La Land. Things are definitely good for this young actress right now, and who knows what kinds of projects will come her way in the coming years?
This picture was posted by the Daily Mail back in 2016, and it clearly shows that Emma Stone has an amazing figure. But Emma Stone is famously not too comfortable with the paparazzi, so she might be a little embarrassed that pictures like these have surfaced...
7. CHLOE LATTANZI AMAZED AT HOW GAS STATIONS WORK
Chloe Lattanzi is the daughter of the Australian icon, Olivia Newton-John, and she's also an aspiring actress, as the Daily Mail reported back in 2014. They also posted pictures of the young celebrity getting her gas pumped by an attendant in Los Angeles, and the expression on her face is just priceless.
She seems to be amazed at how this man was able to pump her gas for her.
Has she really never done this before? It might actually be true, seeing as she comes from a very wealthy family. Olivia Newton-John was incredibly successful back in the day, starring as the love interest in the musical film Grease, and having a successful music career.
6. MADISON BEER WEARING NOT A LOT WHILE PUMPING GAS
Madison Beer is another celebrity that most of us are familiar with, and she was actually discovered by Justin Bieber. The singer has some amazing talent and has found herself in the spotlight at an extremely young age. Seeing the paparazzi snapping pictures of her while she's pumping gas is just something that this star has had to get used to, and she doesn't seem to phased by it.
As an article by the Daily Mail reported back in 2017, the then-18-year-old actress, singer, and model was seen pumping gas after lunch with a friend in Los Angeles. There's nothing too embarrassing about this photo, except of course the fact that she's not really wearing much below the waist.
5. HEIDI MONTAG AND SPENCER PRATT PUMP GAS
Both Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are two of the most easily recognizable names in reality TV, although, their time has come and gone many years ago.
In a video posted on Dailymotion, the couple is seen exiting their car and pumping gas, although, they seem to be having way too much fun doing it. It's like they are performing for the paparazzi.
Speaking of the paparazzi, how is it that they're able to track celebs like these to the gas station? In the video, they are already waiting by the gas station and snapping photos of the stars as they pump gas with huge grins. Was this all a pre-planned publicity stunt?
4. SEAN PENN PUMPING GAS
Sean Penn is another actor that requires no introduction, as we're sure most of our readers are more than familiar with his work over the years. He has been in some incredible films, such as Milk, I Am Sam, and many others. He hasn't acted in as many films as he once did, but he still remains a major celebrity and target for paparazzi when he's out and about.
This picture was posted by Oh No They Didn't, and Sean Penn appears to be pumping his own gas in Malibu while smoking. You don't need to be a genius to know that smoking while pumping gas is incredibly dangerous. Aside from that, he looks a little worse for wear.
3. HALLE BERRY LOOKS LIKE SHE'S DEEP IN CONCENTRATION
Halle Berry is another actress who needs no introduction, and she's been in all kinds of amazing movies over the years. She's probably one of the most successful women in film, although, she doesn't appear as much as she used to in massive blockbusters. Her past credits include the X-Men franchise, in which she played "Storm," Swordfish, and many other movies.
Just Jared posted this picture of Halle Berry pumping her own gas back in 2011, and she was reportedly in the Los Angeles area. The article goes on to claim that the actress had trouble figuring out how to operate the gas pump and pay for it. In this picture, it seems like she's never done this before!
2. REESE WITHERSPOON USING A PHONE AT A GAS STATION
Reese Witherspoon is another celebrity we all know and love, and, although it might be a little hard to identify the person in this picture, we can confirm that it is, in fact, the Legally Blonde star. This actress has done some amazing things over the years and has established herself as one of the leading names.
The Daily Mail posted this picture of her stopping for gas at a local Los Angeles gas station. While she does seem a little fazed by the paparazzi, the article pointed out something even more potentially embarrassing. The fact that she's using a cell phone is technically a safety hazard at a gas station.
1. ALEX RODRIGUEZ HIDING BEHIND A PARKING METER
Alex Rodriguez is a well-known baseball player, but he's also one of the biggest celebrities. He's dated people like Jennifer Lopez in the past and is generally one of the best-known athletes in the world. As a result, it should come as no surprise that the paparazzi love to follow him around.
We get that this isn't quite a gas pump, but in many ways, a parking meter is the same concept.
Alex Rodriguez is actually famous for his attempts to hide from the paparazzi, and this might just be one of his most hilarious moments. He's actually hiding using the parking meter, but as you can see, it's not the best hiding spot.
