I'm about to write my first letter to a celebrity (Robert Pattinson to be precise ) and I haven't got a clue what to include in my letter. I don't want to sound stalkerish.
So I was wondering what have you written in your letters which you have sent to celebrities?
Also, what have you done to make it more personal and to show you have taken your time with the letter?
Thanks for the help

thsi is a really brief letter. I normally send only to people who i care about and know stuff about. so i wusually ad a middle paragraph about what i like about them and all that jazz.
Write what you admire about the person, what about their work you like, and maybe a little something about you. Just be natural, write from the heart - it'll be *your* letter

When I wrote to Robert I talked about how much I loved him in his other movies ( not so much Twilight; he's probably sick of hearing that.) I also told him how excited I was to see his other movies coming out next year. My advice would be try not to sound to fan girlish but still complement his work Hes great too his fans.

I sent Rob Pattinson a request letter a few days ago, along with a few others...
All of the LORs that I sent them was handwritten on A5.. so it's not too long as they get loads of fanmail everyday... Just introduce yourself briefly.. 2-3 lines should do it.
Then say what you like about them eg. "I'm a huge fan of your movies, especially _________ " etc etc. And then ask for an autograph... "I was wondering if it would be possible if.."
And then I thank them and wish them luck in their careers
Basically, make it sound personal, a real fan. don't try to make it like it's the same letter you send to everyone and only altering the names.

Just remember to keep the letter reasonably short (no more than 1 page) and to write what comes naturally (e.g. what you have enjoyed about his work, why this is so).
Whatever you do, don't make it sound like you've written a form letter where you've literally "filled in the blanks". Make it sound like you've written specifically to him as you are a fan.
