:rolleyes:
I love when people look reason in the face and spit in its eye. This is a ridiculous opinion.
^^^ To me attitude is everything and so if the celebrity doesn’t show any appreciation to those who buy their work, maybe their work isn’t worth buying in the first place.
God bless you always!!!

So… after showing more appreciation than anyone for 45 years, now showing the same amount of “appreciation” as everyone else AFTER clearly feeling that people were taking advantage of his attitude (by selling ‘correspondance’ on eBay) suddenly he’s worse than everyone else?
I’m sorry, but I think your attitude is the problem.
There may be a nice person behind the facade. But all I see is a self-promoting, pompous ass who hoodwinked millions with her pop psychology, and used an unethical psychologist (“Dr.” Phil) and a quack (Dr. Oz), to help spread her self-importance. As for those gifts she handed out, they didn’t come out her her pocket. It’s fine to get companies to donate products and services, but to claim they are actually coming from you is a different story (the GM car giveaway) entirely.
Stephen Spielberg. He could be life’s biggest pompous ass and still be respected, yet everyone I know who has met him says he’s an unassuming guy.
Why should everyone have to pay for whatever goes on at Ebay why not all of the fans had anything to do with it.
God bless you always!!!

He was pretty funny on Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me several years ago, as well.
Well, some people don’t seem to like him very much.

Jerry Sienfeld
He is not most beloved.
God bless you always!
Heh, in fact he’s in the Most Despised Celebrity list.
Now Steve Martin, as popular as he was once he’s fallen from grace because he’s reportedly not real charitable towards fans seeking autographs and because a number of his recent flop movies were apparently just done for the financial purpose of adding to his substantial art collection. I love the guy but have seen a lot of negativity toward him on this board.

He’ll be back.
God beat you sideways.
I can’t get worked up about celebrities not wanting to do autographs. When the Chicago International Film Festival honored Gregory Peck, every time he left his hotel, there were autograph seekers. He was a wonderfully gracious man, and would always sign. The problem was that the autograph seekers were the same damn people every single time. These pricks were running their little autograph businesses by abusing the hospitality of a frail old man. And frankly, I have only slightly less contempt for their customers.
Why buy an autograph? An autograph, as far as I’m concerned, is a physical artifact of the time I met this particular person. If you buy an autograph, what are you buying? A counterfeit memory? I have autographs from artists I admire, and photographs with them. But to buy one collected by someone else? I might as well paste my own head over someone else’s in a photograph of that person.
My candidate as well. The sound of Ringo’s voice (speaking or singing) still makes me smile a little. Always. After 48 years.
