How do we know we're real?

Like, for instance, you've only ever met people you've seen face to face. Every celebrity, politician, TV personality, etc have only been shown through a screen.

Ergo,

I can't prove that Beyonce is real, just like I can prove that any of you are real +-+

But you also don't know what seeing people face-to-face means, ontologically. Maybe even the people you meet in person are just constructs of your mind.
