Jessica Chastain has a fan base of her own, and it’s only growing with her recent Oscar nod.

But her rising star aside, The Help actress – and first-time nominee for her supporting role in the period drama – says she still gets star-struck.

“I do it all the time, every time I meet a famous person,” Chastain, 30, tells Vanity Fair in its Hollywood-themed February issue. “I’m such a geek.”

So which actor did Chastain have a blush-worthy run-in with while she was starring in a play in New York? None other than veteran leading lady Meryl Streep.

“I was in the lobby with some friends of mine, and I look over, and I said, ‘Is that Meryl Streep?’ ” she recalls. “And as I said it, she turned around and started walking toward me.”

That was the moment “everything got kind of foggy,” she says.

“She went, ‘Jessica,’ and she grabbed my hands and she was saying beautiful things about the play and my performance.”

Chastain’s self-proclaimed “embarrassing” reaction? “Because I was so shocked by it, all I did was I held her hands and went, ‘Thank you, thank you. It means so much to me that you came,’ ” she says. “And I walked away.”

It’s not the first time Chastain embraced her inner fan girl. At the Palm Springs International Film Festival earlier this month, the actress started crying when she met Gary Oldman.

Finally added pictures of Jessica at SAG awards last Sunday. Sorry for the delay…

She was BEAUTIFUL in an impeccably minimalist bright blue Calvin Klein gown, and is being listed everywhere as one of the best dressed of the night. Jessica was nominated as Supporting Actress for her work at The Help, and ‘lost it’ to her co-star Octavia Spencer, but took home the award for cast ensemble. Check the pictures below:

Jessica Chastain’s best disguise these days is to walk around looking exactly like herself.

“No one ever recognizes me,” says the actress, who was almost as omnipresent as buttered popcorn in movie theaters last year. Settling in for a vegan lunch at Shutters hotel, with her hair pulled back in a loose ponytail and wearing only light makeup, the redhead describes requesting a quiet table from the restaurant host for her interview.

“And he goes: ‘Oh, OK. Good luck with your interview. I hope you get the job.’ ” She grins. “And I go, ‘oh, it’s not that kind of interview, it’s a journalist.’ And then he goes, ‘So you’re interviewing her?’ ” Chastain dissolves into giggles, but the host wasn’t through. “Oh, you’re a writer?” he asked. “It just kept getting worse and worse,” she said, laughing. “It happens all the time.”

In fact, Chastain, 30, may be one of the most prolific actors working today: In 2011 she had seven films open, and five more are scheduled for release or production in 2012. “Usually an actor has to work in the porn industry to have that kind of success,” cracked her Tree of Life co-star Brad Pitt onstage at the Palm Springs Film Festival gala earlier this month.
