When you’re a celeb, recognition comes with the territory.

Even when getting your morning coffee.

Star Trek actor, Zachary Quinto, was on The Late Late Show with James Corden where he revealed his own encounter with the frothy side of fame.

Zachary was shooting a film in Ann Arbour, Michigan when he needed his coffee fix and headed to the local Starbucks. Not wanting the whole place to know that Zachary Quinto was in the house, the 40-year-old told the barista that his name was “Josh” when asked.

Unfortunately for the actor, the “lid” was totally blown off his cover story, thanks to his barista who decided to tweet about the caffeine encounter.

“Zachary Quinto thinks he can come into MY Starbucks, use the fake name Josh for his order, and not get recognized?? Girl check ur eyebrows” wrote the Twitter user named Sophia. “He got a tall latte [with] almond milk and 1 pump of vanilla.”

Well, Zach, you got totally pass for a “Josh” if you really wanted to.
