Disclaimer: This blog may offend some people but tbh if you worried about who you might offend all the time you would never do anything, cos basically everything you do could offend someone somewhere! I'm afraid that's life!
Something’s really do make me angry, but I quite often just bite my tongue and resist the temptation to say or type anything. A few of these things are the term biggest fan, spammers, liars, people who wait outside venues to meet people that they can't be bothered to actually support by going and seeing the show and people who try and judge what they haven't seen.
The term biggest fan really grates on me. I don't believe there is such a thing. People are fans in all different ways; I don't think it can be measured on what you own or how many times you've met someone. Some people may really idolise someone but not have the money to be able to buy all the things they have done or have the means to go and meet them. I am a massive Girls Aloud fan, but due to work, money, etc I haven't had the chance to meet them all.
Does this make me less of a fan?
And in another context I have got pictures with and autographs from people who I don't idolise, I like their work and the opportunity was there, but cos I have these . . .
. . . Does that make me a bigger fan than someone who actually loves them?
I hate people who spam celebrities for a response! Most celebs have loads of followers who probably also tweet them a lot and I am pretty sure they don’t have the time to spend all day sat on twitter replying to each and every person. And most people who do get a response from spamming get it because the celeb is probably bored of u and does it purely to shut u up! Also hate people who go 'oh it's cos they hate me' when they don’t reply! It's not cos they hate you, its cos they probably didn't even see your tweet and even if they did, when u tweet something like 'omg I love you' they probably don't think it needs a response!
Liars!!!!! You always get caught out so I don't really know why you bother? Also love it when people overexaggerate something that happened and u blatantly know they were lying as u were there to lol!
Now we move on to SD'ers who don't actually see the show and I'll throw ebayers into this as well! People say they want to go meet these people cos they love them and all.
If you truly want to support them as a fan then maybe you should go and see the show?
Cos like has happened to me a few times, I go to see the show get to SD after and there are already people there who haven’t bothered to see the show and end up getting to spend more time with whoever it maybe than the people who actually paid out to see the show!
And ebayers/people who ask for more than one autograph at a time! You people disgust me! You are basically using these celebrities as pieces of meat! Using them to basically either show off to people at the autographs you have or for financial gain by selling them on!
So last on my little list was people who judge things they haven’t seen! Even more so when they have a go at you for judging when they haven't even seen who your judging!
How can u judge something u haven’t seen?
Are u basing this on other people opinions?
Are you doing it to sound better in front of your mates?
For attention?
Just to be awkward and cause an argument?
Whatever your reason it is a bit pathetic tbh. If you don't think someone is going to be good at something then fair enough, but you can't say they are crap if you haven’t actually seen them. For example, a few months ago a friend and I were having a conversation about LB and Susan playing Elle. Both of us had seen Susan play the part, as had we seen Sheridan. We then got mulled on twitter by people saying we should support Susan and give her a chance in the role. Now those people, unlike us, had not actually seen Susan play that role.
So I'm sorry but who is not being supportive?
Us who still go and pay out to see the show?
Or u who sits at home and pretends to care?
Sometimes I do think maybe things or people won't be very good as I've heard they aren't. Key examples would be Grease The Musical, Shrek The Musical and Lee Mead! I still however went to see both musicals and will go and see Lee in LB. Ok so people were right about Grease, it was cheap, amateurish and tbh just a little bit rubbish, but the same does not apply to Shrek! I thoroughly enjoyed Shrek and would defiantly go again!
Which way will I sway with Lee?
I will have to wait and judge for myself.
Hope you enjoyed my views and as the disclaimer said if I offended you, well I'm sorry that's life. If I did offend you then it probably means you do or have done something on this list, so in a way, you offend me to :)
