Autograph collecting in L.A

[Karl Stromberg]

Does anyone know any places in L.A where these celebs hang out :

Burt Young/Talia Shire/Bill Conti (of Rocky fame)
Burt Ward , Julie Newmar
Melrose actors
MASH actors
MWC actors (Applegate , Faustino etc)
Friends actors
J-Lo (I guess I could get one at Madres ?)
John Savage & George Dzundza (of Deer Hunter fame)
Dolph Lundgren , Frank Langella & other MotU actors
N Kidman , S Stone , M Pfeiffer
007 stars (Lazenby , Paluzzi , Dor etc...they all live around L.A)
Bolo Yeung (martial artist , Enter the Dragon and numerous MA films)

Was thinking of getting their autos IP....but it's gonna be tricky if I don't know where to look :/

Thanks.

I've seen Jennifer Aniston on at the Ralph's at Doheny & Beverly as well as a few other celebs. But they really don't like to be bothered while grocery shopping.

Your best bets are premieres and such where they're in a public greeting mood. You really don't want to piss off people you admire anyway, do you?

This might be a trip of a lifetime so if I wanna get any autos I might have to get a little pushy....no guts no glory

Sorry , but when the celebs are in public they should expect auto hunters...that's part of the job.

I'm prob going next month.

Try The Ivy...It's a restaurant on Robertson Blvd. Also, Le Petite Four, a restaurant on Sunset.

WOW. That is the lamest/stupidest thing I have read today.

(Nothing against you Karl).

Sorry but that's the way it is....if celebs can't accept it then perhaps they should find other jobs....signing is part of PR/image thing.

I just saw mia maestro, famke jassen, and some others at the Arclight Theaters in Hollywood. Think it's officially on Sunset Blvd.

Well, there's two sides to the autograph collection gig. On the one hand there are the fans (like you Karl) who only want to collect some sigs to add to their own private collection. But on the other side of it there are the autograph hounds. The hounds job is to get as many autographs as possible to then turn around and sell them on ebay or from their own private business.

There was an interesting book I read a couple of years ago called "Starstruck: When a fan gets close to fame" that delved into the two sides of collecting and certain celeb. fandoms (especially autograph collecting).

Good luck on autograph collecting Karl. I'm sure you won't have a problem getting a few. Most celebs seem to be willing to sign things.

Some are pretty nice...just happened to see Colin Farrell in a Ralphs a couple of weeks ago and a little girl asked for his autograph and he gave it to her. Maybe he gave it because she was a little girl, but he seemed nice. You don't happen to have a little daughter do you? that would make it easier, I mean who can say no to a little girl???

Everytime I think of autograph collecting I think of those I Love Lucy episodes were she goes to Hollywood!

 

[Darklord Dave]

Aren't there stalkeratzi websites that track the movements of celebs? At least they did a Boston Legal about them, so they must be real!

PR/image thing? No. Iinterviews, posters, advertisements are part of their PR/image thing. Grocery shopping, taking a walk/piss/shower, those are PRIVATE things.

Unless you are a cute as a squirrel's nut little girl, I say leave the auto hunting for the appropriate time and place.

 

[Karl Stromberg]

Famke lives in NY so chances of getting her graph :/

I'd love to get Sly Stallone & H Hogans graphs also but they live in FL ?

 

[gabberjawa]

Anyone know where I can get Bodie's autograph?
