Are Celebrities Ungrateful? (Regarding Fans)

[Slim Fiasco]

Seriously, I've seen a lot of famous people or not necessarily famous but people with respectable fan bases, be it an actor, a musician or whatever, who seem to be so displeased with people walking up to them, screaming and overreacting in general. It's obviously an annoying thing but still, all these people don't even know you and yet they care about you and you're making them happy, so why is it such a bad thing? I'm sure that most popular people were unknown at certain points in their lives and they'd have killed to meet someone they idolized themselves.

Because really without fans celebrities wouldn't be what they are. At the end of the day these are the people who are putting money in your pocket. Everybody wants to be appreciated, paid well, and to share his work with others; so why bitch about it once you have it? I'd say it's a small price to pay for what you're getting in return, and let us not forget that celebrities do want to get it, otherwise why wishing for a role in a big movie or a multi-platinum selling album.

And yeah, it'd be more appropriate if the fans wouldn't overreact but these things aren't so easy to control. We all here can plan a meeting with Em but I'm sure all of us would lose our minds if we ever come in contact with him. Knowing that a picture or a simple "Hi" can mean the world to my fan I seriously doubt that I'd act as a douche if I ever get in such position. In fact, if I was Em I would be posting in here right now and skyping with you motherfuckers just to make you happy as fuck. And this is why I really respect Hopsin, who is one of the few people I know openly inviting fans to greet him. And Vin Diesel too, who would read countless facebook comments and reply to random people just to show that he cares (and hence him having so many likes on fb).

Like Em said (with other words).. I'm an entertainer. I'm a musician, an artist when I'm on scene. When I'm off it, I'm not Eminem anymore so why would you all come to me and start stalking me?

Hopsin also acts like a douche sometimes..

we shouldn't expect artists to give anything other than their work. just making stuff for people should be enough, their day job is done, go home now and live.

it's not fair to think that their lives is for you entertainment, don't you sometimes want to be left alone, be away from people and just walk around with yourself? why take that from somebody who gave you something?

If they gave fans a huge amount of time (depending on how big their fan base is) they wouldn't have time to create, and they wouldn't live a normal life to create something, normal people can relate to, they'll become numb tools, they'll hate them selves, overdose on some drug, and die!

the best reaction when seeing them in public (when they're not working or prompting their work) is to say "hello, what's up..." from a distance, or give them a look of respect.

Guys, I definitely think that it's really inappropriate to invade someone's personal space like that but then again it's kinda understandable because what the fan is thinking is - this may be the first and last opportunity to ever meet this guy in my whole life, and when you admire someone like that I'm thinking your subconsciousness will make you go a bit crazy. Plus, I'm not really speaking about going and start hugging people or whatever (alluding to female fans) but more about saying "Hey Em, what's up? I'm a huge fan here." And I guess asking for a photo shouldn't be asking for much. BUT, if the artist does say that he can't do it then I certainly agree that you should just back off and not insist on anything.

I, myself, am a loud person who likes the quiet. Weird, right? If I was in that position, I'd probably get annoyed, I'd try my hardest not to act like a douche but I have a small tolerance for other people getting too far into my business. I like my privacy and there's only so much I can take as far as other people. I fucking hate pictures.

THANK YOU for describing me there. I dont think I would approach a famous person, even if I was a huge fan, I would just leave them alone. I have never done shit like this, except 4 times or something, 3 been the same person who knew I would be around at his gigs anyway, I fuckin hate that bullshit! And I dont use this word often.

Em is not a fuckin celebrity! - I am not sayin you imply this. I hate celebrities too. Infact, I even hate the word, imagine....!!

Id slide my runty hands over your shrivvled little wart cock and squeeze til the puss oozes out. While you're busy focusing on your pain, i'd skillfully back flip away and grab the nearest spatula. !!BLAOW!! I'd shove it dry in your ass. You like that daddy? Mmmmm. Now I'm looking at you bent over and my pussy is wet. I pee on you. You cry. Daddy are you ok? Why are you crying? I suddenly and violently start to shake. FUCK NOT NOW! Boom@ I transformed into my final form! I am now an 8 foot tall lizard man with a gigantic slimy cock. Do you know what fresh meat is boy? Daddy you got a purdddy mouf
