It’s time for the annual Network TV Upfront Presentations, which also happen to be one of the best opportunities all year to meet celebs in NYC!
The Upfronts are annual presentations where the TV networks reveal their fall line-ups to advertisers and press. And, to really make an impression, they bring along their biggest stars. Though there is no public access to these events, they can still be a perfect opportunity to meet celebrities as they are arriving or leaving.
