Humans and fame

[RJ]

I just want to see people's thoughts on this. I was on an online chatroom (Furcadia) an hour ago and suddenly Amber (aka. Miss Mab) arrived. For those of you who don't know, www.missmab.com. Amber's probably Furcadia's version of our Stoney. There was basically chaos when I was on there. Everyone was trying to start a conversation with her and get her attention. One person was begging her to have a cameo in her comic. I basically sat back and did nothing since I know what it's like to be attacked by rabid fans.

I can't believe how some people get over obsessed with someone who is famous. Also, not to mean any offence to anyone who does this, but I really hate it when people ask people for autographs. All you're doing is saying to the person 'I'm not good enough, you're above me'.

Anyway, in other words; I hate rabid fans.

[glow=red,2,300]But I like rabid fans when they're my rabid fans! ;D

Kidding. Anyway, I don't consider asking for an autograph as a sign of "You're better than me." I see it as a sign of "Oooh! Goody! Souveneirs to flaunt in front of my friends/sell on E-Bay!" And I don't mind if someone is a Celine Dion fan because they love her voice.

What gets me is when they're her fan because of the way she dresses or the way she looks. That has nothing to do with her line of work. No, you may not coo over the hot picture of Denzel Washington. Yes, he is a good actor. No, you may not stick a picture of his head on Matt Damon's body. Give me my magazine back. NO! THE SCISSORS!

OK, random insanity over.

Another thing that gets me; sports stars. They play well, but don't go all rabid worshipper on them, please. They're overpaid, and most of them have bad attitudes. And if I hear one more person saying "I wanna be like Johnny Damon/Pedro Martinez/Alex Rodrigez when I grow up!" I will smack that person. Especially if it's Alex Rodrigez. *is a loyal Sox fan* (Loyal fan, not worshipper.)[/glow]
