Bratt humbled on Oprah

He may have dated Julia Roberts and starred in a string of successful films, but Benjamin Bratt came back to earth with a bump when he was booked on the Oprah Winfrey’s show as a surprise guest.

The humbled star explained: “There was the story of an aunt who had written in to the show saying that her niece is a huge Benjamin Bratt fan.

"So the producers of the show wanted to surprise her.

"They called her down to a spa in downtown Chicago, and the gag was for me to show up with a bouquet of flowers and walk out to the lobby where she was sitting and say, as I did: ’Hi! I’m Benjamin Bratt! I’m going to be your masseur for the day!’

"She just looked up at me and went: ’Okay...’ She had no idea who I was! It was incredibly humbling.”
