Is it still called a 'cock block' if you're female?

Had dinner with Mr. Movie Star tonight at this place - there's no name anywhere (not on the door, not on the menu, not on the matchbooks) so I have no idea what it's called.

We were in a corner, having what HAD to look like a very intimate conversation (sitting really close, hands clasped, etc.. ), when this 'woman' (quotes intentional) just sat down at our table and started trying to chat up Mr. Movie Star. I could not believe it - short of standing up and screaming "Hello, I'm the date here - do you mind?" I had nothing. I couldn't even do that, I was so stunned. I just kind of sat there with my mouth hanging open.

Mr. Movie Star made a valiant effort to get rid of her politely, but she was having none of it. So she sat there, flirting like crazy with a guy who had his arm around another woman.

We ended up running out the back door when she got up to go to the bathroom.

I'm still stunned. I have to confess - she was annoying as hell, but I wish I had that kind of guts.

Mr. Movie Star says that this type of thing has happened to him before.

Unbelievable.

I had to end the evening early as I have a 5:30 am call tomorrow at Sony.
Sony's a half hour drive for me - even in no traffic, so a 5:30 means that I have to be up at 4 am.

What a Bitch!
I'm always like that as well. I get completely gobsmacked and can't think of anything to say until way afterwards. Bollocks!
Anyways, I like your blog, it's interesting.

I know I've been with celebrities doing interviews and people will do their damnedest to crowd me out like I'm not even there. I tend not to move so easily though. LOL But kudos to him for realizing these kind of fans can really make a celebrity's life hell by confronting them.

I still like cock block, regardless of the gender, because it would take some balls (and stupidity) to behave like that.
