Can I Have Your Autograph?

Being a famous person intends dealing with fan demands for autographs, ranging from polite and appropriate to ill-mannered and overbearing. One time Katherine Katharine Hepburn was performing on Great White Way and tried to go out backstage through a crowd of jostling autograph hounds. Bodyguards helped her to her limousine and once safely inside the very private star rolled down the window and shouted," Run mutton down! We'll make clean up the blood later!" The crowd scattered and the limousine sped away, pausing long adequate for Katharine Hepburn to revolve down the window and moving ridge adieu to her fans, accompanied by an wicked laugh. Strangely enough, when she lived in Beverly Hills the privacy loving Katharine Hepburn developed the wont of sneaking into her neighbor's houses as a hobby. She became expert at climbing trees, avoiding dismays and dogs, and telling herself just before her nervous neighbours called the police.

Walt Walt Disney had the unusual experience in the 1930s of having his name celebrated around the world when his face was not. Often he would bury his designation and that concerted with his insouciant garb sometimes kept him out of fancy restaurants. Later in the 50's he became a recognized figure because of his telecasting hosting duties. The deficiency of namelessness made it increasingly hard for him to walk through Disneyland without being badgered for autographs. Walt Disney struggled not to be brusque while explaining he didn't have got time, he was trying to do the parkland a better place. In the 60's when the company was trying to buy Sunshine State fen for a 2nd amusement park, he was warned by his advisers to remain away from the state, the existent estate terms would travel up once the personal identity of the purchaser was known. But Walt Disney couldn't resist. Eating in a Orlando diner Walt was approached by a funny waitress,"Pardon me. Aren't you Walt Disney?" Walt who was known for being brutally honest, replied," Perdition no! And if I see that sob, I'll give him a piece of my mind."

Stars making movies at Universal Joint Studios often seek to avoid tour guides leading autograph hounds. One peculiar chap became imaginative at tracking down Michael Caine, who toyed with the thought of having the immature adult male fired, then decided, "What the hell, I'll just sign" and was gracious. It turned out to be a good move, the tour guide was Microphone Ovitz who later became the most powerful endowment agent in Hollywood.

When stardom is new, autograph sign language can be a thrill. One nighttime in City Of Light the 60 twelvemonth old Cary Grant and 25 twelvemonth old Sophia Sophia Loren wished to travel out to dinner. "But the people will come up up to us. I can't stand up it!" said the jaded Briton. "I love it," said Sophia. When they left their hotel Grant complete with his chapeau pulled down,dark glasses, his scarf wrapped around his face, and his immense greatcoat looked like the Invisible Man. Sophia looked like Sophia. As they walked the streets of City Of Light people began to come up up to her for autographs which she joyfully signed. After a few fan brushes Grant began to acquire jealous. Down came the hat, off came the glasses, the coat and the scarf and soon he was standing under Ne visible lights to acquire noticed.

Another English histrion named Grant was thrilled by his jailbreak stardom owed to the film Four Weddings And A Funeral (1994). Hugh Grant would drive around New House Of York looking for theatres where the movie was playing then acquire out and wait in line, happy for the attending and to subscribe autographs. Later when he was arrested in Los Angeles for hiring cocotte Godhead Brown, he turned down petitions to set his signature on yellow journalisms containing his mugful shot.

Some histrions just subscribe despite their annoyance. One time Matthew Arnold Schwarzenegger was being interviewed at a fourth estate junket when a newsman asked him for an autograph for his mother, a large no-no. The star grimaced and said,"Of course. I wouldn't desire to let down your mother." He paused then added," I'm sure you have got disappointed her adequate already."

Autographs can do internal struggles for stars who take themselves too seriously. During the making of Klute (1971) Donald Joan Sutherland received a written petition from a fan who wished for an autograph for his daughter. Joan Sutherland showed the missive to his humorless girlfriend Jane Jane Fonda who expressed a strong sentiment that he should not subscribe it, autographs connote that film histrions are somehow superior to others. Joan Sutherland bowed to her doctrine and wrote a missive stating his grounds for refusing the request. The adult male wrote him back,"Dear Mr. Sutherland, give thanks you for your letter. We believe you are full of it but we ripped off the signature and gave it to our daughter."
