THE WORST PEOPLE TO GET AN AUTOGRAPH
I am asked constantly who are the worst and best personalities to approach in hopes of getting an autograph for your collection or in many cases to try to sell. Honestly the list will change every week with the majority We can say are good but the bad stick out like a sore thumb. You have the likes of JERRY LEE LEWIS. JERRY LEWIS, KEVIN COSTNER, and even MERYL STREEP who make the list every year. But this past 2 weeks one in particular may be topping them all.
Singer KENNY ROGERS was playing what he billed as his last world tour and decided to grace us in a venue that is very accessible to meet and attempt a request for an autograph that may take 30 seconds to accommodate some that have not forgotten him. We heard stories that he was tough but seems is believing. I once spoke to his manager and requested if I could send him a few albums for Rogers to sign and when they came back he signed ONLY one in the package of seven which were going to a special cause. I knew what may be coming but what we observed was worst.When 3 of us went to the best spot to meet him we ran into a true fan who waited 4 hours to get an autograph and a picture of someone she paid 200 dollars for a seat in the first row. 4 HOURS!!!! Forget about the 200 dollars which should have included a meet and greet of which most of us will never understand why that happens.She told us this was the 6th time she has seen him and he NEVER HAS STOPPED. Personally I would have said politely screw it but not this gal. She was the only one waiting and he drove past her in a golf cart( he now has a bad knee we were told) ignoring her completely even with her sincere plea just for a picture. Has he looked in the mirror lately . Even with all his surgeries he is nothing to look at and just an aging singer that only caters to a certain crowd. Though he threw her a tambourine at the show , how difficult would it had been to make this woman's day. Everyone should read this blog pass it on to a friend, boycott his shows and make him realize without his fans HE IS NOBODY. The few albums I have can now be used for target practice or frisbees for my dogs. Now they are some great stars to their fans and I will follow up with the best of the best but today we saw the Worst if the Worst.
