David Schwimmer he had an awkward encounter with a legendary celebrity while working as a teenager.
During a recent appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” the 58-year-old actor said he “had so many banana jobs” when he was younger, one of which led to meeting musician Rod Stewart.
“One summer after my freshman year in college, I was just looking for a job, and my mom said, ‘Well, you can be my process server,'” he recalled. “My mom was a divorce lawyer and I was the guy who would pop out of the bushes and serve you divorce papers.”
The actor recalled that he felt like James Bond because he would get a tip on where a person might be and go find him.

“Once, oh man, thank God I haven’t run into him since, but I was serving Rod Stewart“, said the star of the series “Friends”, laughing. “I don’t even know if he knows. I don’t think he knows.”
Colbert then joked that he “knows now” and if the two ever meet down the road later, he now “knows he’s going to hit you.”
Although it is not clear who he divorced, Stewart was married to Alana Stewart from 1979 to 1984 and then to Rachel Hunter from 1990 to 2006. He is currently married to Penny Lancaster, whom he married in 2007 .

In this latest sequel, Schwimmer portrays a divorced father of two, who takes time off from his career as a botanist to care for his mother, who suffers from dementia. In the process, she finds herself caring for her twins and continuing her research in a homemade laboratory.
“I’ve always been a horror fan, especially horror action comedy. The genre is so exciting to me,” he told The Hollywood Reporter in January. “I’m a true fan and I’ve never been asked to do that.”
“One time, oh man, thank God I’ve never run into him since, but I served Rod Stewart. I don’t even know if he knows. I don’t think he does.”
The project not only marks Schwimmer’s first appearance in a horror series, but also marks a new chapter for the actor.
Schwimmer famously played a father of two during his involvement in “Friends”, but this series gives the actor a chance to explore what it’s like to be a father to teenagers on screen.
