Miles Teller is certainly on his way to becoming Hollywood's next It Boy, so it's a complete miracle that I ran into him today in the VH1 elevator! Since he was so mean and scary in Divergent, I must admit I was a little scared. But luckily he was so nice and chill in person, which totally relaxed me, too! (Well, as relaxed as I can be in the elevator.)

With all the diverse roles he's played, I didn't know what to expect. Personally, I feel he's a little bit of all of them — my favorite being Willard from Footloose. Miles told me all about his real life drum skills that he used in his new film Whiplash, which is ALREADY getting some major Oscar buzz! It should be noted that Miles, a very modest guy, shrugs it off like it's nothing. HOW COOL!!!! He did tell me that my dance skills could potentially help me become a great drummer as well, so that was exciting. I also tried my best at Miles' go-to dance move. How did I do?!
