Hi everyone! I am new here and I need help. Today, I sent out a mail to Tom Hiddleston. I included a letter to express how much I admire him as an actor and politely asked for autographs (I included pictures) I even included a self addressed envelope. The problem is after I shipped it, I realized that the post office did not put in the irc as they misunderstood and gave me an AR registered post instead. Is it the same thing? I've never sent letters before. Will I get a reply? Do celebrities ignore autograph request if an IRC is not included?
Should I wait or send out another one? Thank you

Including an IRC or money always increases your chances to have a reply. I know that there are celebrities that would pay for postage. In my experience, the first request I sent was to maestro John Williams, and I didn't send anything (a total newbie). I was very worried about it too, and I thought that he wouldn't reply back. But he did! So don't worry, everything will be fine!

I guess that it always depends on weight. I always send 4x6 photos and enclose US$ 2.00. Sometimes I send A4 sized prints, and as I usually add some cardboard to prevent them from bending, I use to enclose US$ 5.00, or € 5.00 when I believe it's necessary (I sent € 5.00 to Gerald Scarfe, and he lives in the UK . Good luck!

I've read that Markham, Froggatt & Irwin doesn't accept currency, according to their website, but I've seen successes from people that sent money along with their requests to that agency. I guess that they can be flexible.

Yes, I believe that the agency has imposed these rules because it's the most suitable way for any fan to receive a response from any artist, but it is clear that each artist may or may not follow the rules of the agency, especially if this actor/actress has its own website. In the case of Tom Hiddleston I only know successes from people who sent a SASE, unfortunately, but this is probably due to the fact that he is very busy.

I see you got a success from a-ha members, they such an awesome band with a terrific sound! Do you know how could I get their autos? Thanks!

Oh, I got them in person, just waited for them outside the hotel when they come to my city with last tour. I don't know if they sign TTM but I'll let you know if I discover something
