I don't really think it matters if a celebrity is a jerk. As long as you are polite to me, the fan, and respect the fact that we pay for that porch you're driving, you can be as much of a **** in reality you want. Billy Corgan's a good example. He's supposed to be a real jerk. But when I met him, he was very sweet to me and gave me a hug and an autograph. That's the kind of stuff that matters to me.
I dont know how much I would judge anyone based on a one-time meeting. Especially if it was a circumstance like bumping into them .. or during a bad day etc. I can tell you that Chad Kroeger and all the NickelBack guys are all-around good dudes. Not based on a one time meeting either - but they consistantly act like responsible folks in their neighbourhoods. The Rolling Stones.. hmmmm? Well they do sell themselves as sorta 'Loud Mouthed' Partying, dont-give-a-shit Rockers. So I guess I wouldnt be at all shocked if Keith Richards was to be drunk/stoned and abrupt with me one day. In fact.. i think id be disapointed to find out he was really a very polite gentleman who only pretends to be a 'wild muthafucka' to the public.
I don't live too far from Orange County New York, (OCC) I've heard from numerous people that the Tutles(sp) from Orange County Choppers are total assholes
A story about a very young boy asked for Rowan Atkinson's autograph. Rowan Atkinson turned around to the young kid and told him to 'FUCK OFF'', I have a funny feeling Rowan Atkinson is a complete arse-hole in normal life. Maddona seems an utter bitch from hell as does most female pop-divas. another is Naomi Campbell, who has already proven shes an utter bitch. As for men, try Russel Crowe or John Thaw and would imagine, Keith Richards would be a total boring arse-pain too in real life, as is one of the guitarists from 'The Who', but don't know his name.
Pete Townshend or how ever you spell it, that guy comes across as a major asshole in the interviews I've seen, including the one they show at the rock and roll hall of fame.
I'm glad I found this thread. I used to bus and wait tables at the old desert inn in vegas. I've served alot of celeberties. Louie Anderson is a pig. We seated him in the back of the restaurant because when he eats, the food flies everywhere. we'd have to call the porters to clean the food off the floor. Whitney Houston and bobby brown would allow only blacks to wait on them. Dennis Miller walks around talking into a tape recorder and bumping into people. Willie Nelson is cool, and will toke up with anybody. Debbie Reynolds is a stuck-up ****. Frank Sinatra was cool. His bodygaurds, however, would knock you flat on your ass if you were in the way. His son is mister congeniality. Buddy Hackett got plastered during his shows, and was funnier afterward. Steve and Edie are a class act. Gallagher, is a money obsessed ass. Don Rickles really is a nice guy. Troy aiken may be the cheapest millionaire alive. A $5 tip on a $300 dollar check! The entire cast of the movie, Star Trek: Resurection was unbelievable gracious. Dolph lundgren is surprisingly quite, and Jean-Claude van Dame has a problem keeping his dick in his pants. Blair Brown is very classy, and has wonderful taste in men! I also served Bill Clinton. he was so smooth I had to check to see if I still had my wallet. there are many others, but these come right to mind.
I must mention RAY MANZAREK KEYBOARD PLAYER OF THE DOORS: he is one of the most wonderful guys on the planet.....the best karma eminates from his every being!!!!!!!
the first person that comes to mind when i think of a bitch is Courtney love. i dont hate her or anything, but she's a moviestar bitch. it seems. when has she been nice to somone? kurt? not really. so, point made.
this lady from my hometown was in Vegas on vacation, she was at the casino in her hotel and won a thousand bucks, she had to go up to het room to receive the money, her friedns stayed in the casino and she just told them she'd be right back. Well she got in the elevater, it stopped at the next floor and 3 big black men came on and said "hit the floor:, she dropped to the floor and started saying "i don't have anything, here take what you want" None of them said a word, then the one man said "we said, hit the 3rd floor" She got up and was so embarrased she would not even look at them. She went to her room, buddy came and brought her money, just after she closed the door, there was another knock, it was a bell boy with a dozen roses, attatched was a card that said "Thanks for the laugh, Denzel Washington" Around each rose, there was a 100 dollar bill around the stem, so she ended up with 2200, instead of jus tthe 1000 she first won.. so aparently Denzel has a good sense to humor.
Who wouldn't guess Mariah Carey is a dipshit and stupid bitch. Whitney Houston- she lost her mind but is pretty funny to watch when she is "off." I could guess about 80% of all celebrities are fake,obnoxious and total assholes because it all goes to their head- (even if the have filed bankruptcy or foreclosed) Willie Nelson, Johnny Depp are very very cool!
I am embarrassed to say but I met the drummer and lead singer of Smashmouth. The lead singer is an asshole drunk who thinks he's a lot more famous than he is, but the drummer was really nice.
My dad met Bill Clinton when he was still governor of AR. He spent almost 20 minutes talking to him and he said that he has a wonderful ability to focus on a person and make that person feel important. I've only known one minor celebrity, Earl Schaffer. In 1948 Earl Schaffer became the first person to hike the Appalachian Trail in one season. He did a 50th anniversery hike in 1998 ;the same year that my brother and I hiked the Appalachian Trail. My brother and I hiked 1200 miles with Earl and got to see him as he truly was; an absolutely wonderful human being.
Personface, That's funny, What has Smashmouth done in lik the last 5-7 years!!!? He can't afford to ba an asshole- don't U think?
