[/quote]Aw Terri where did you write to Blue that failed? I wrote to Blue literally over 20 times and every time i wrote a had a success. From their very early days up until 2003 they were excellent at responding to fanmail. I sent photos, CDs etc and got them all signed.[/quote]

Not fair! I wrote twice and got nothing, one of my friends wrote once and got something. I really can't remember the address. It was in a magazine one day and my friend wrote to that and got a reply within a week and I have never had a reply from my two letters. Never stopped me going to their concerts though :D

Well mine was David Boreanaz. The guy who plays Angel i wrote a letter to him and quite frankly i didnt know what to expect. Prob a latter thanking me or writing to him. I but i got a PP of his autograph and i thought it was great cuz i thought it was real then i decided to look for more buffy and angel addresses which lead me to another site and discoverd it wasnt real but a PP. I wrote to Anthony Stewart head and he sent me and my Niece a autograph personalised which was really cool. I then met David Boreanaz :o and got his autograph and t got a lot more PPs and now am looking into getting real (well as real as we know) so i got my fist one from this site 2day from colin firth. i sent 3 others off at the same time has him and i got 8 2 send out now all written just need em posting so gotta wait till payday.

I thought it would be cool to have autographs from my favorite stars. So I wrote to one of my favorite gymnasts and got a reply back and I was really excited and happy about it that I began to do it more often. But I still only have like 4 autographs :cry:

I started sending letters because I just wanted to let some really really talented people know how talented I think they are! Then the autograph idea came in!

Idina the DIVA

Unread post by bwaybelter »

I started collecting after recieving Idina Menzel's autograph on Jan 7th, the day before I saw her in WICKED the musical. I was jumping up and down at the mailbox and screaming..It was a wonderful day!
"Idina, Sutton, Kerry..THANK GOD"

"Break a leg, not a rib...you're NOT Idina Menzel!!!"

"Idina is the diva."

Why collect?

Unread post by TheCollector »

Hi all, {up}

I am obviously collecting now for charity which is my current motivation!

I never really collected autographs before, in fact I only had one, which was Elton John and I got that in person in 1984!

Since I began my working life I have always been around celebs (I now present for TV and radio). Before that I was a journalist, so I suppose I have always been fairly unimpressed by stardom!

Having said that I am having a really good time collecting now! My motivation is to try to get autographs from people who are usually quite difficult to get! I have had some successes, but there are still plenty I am striving to get!

Cheers!

Well sometime back in September 04 I was looking around on Ebay for Ashlee Simpson's autograph. I found one that I really liked for around $80 but my parents said it was too much money. Then, I started searching on google for how to get a free autograph from her. That brought me to this site, and figured it would be really cool if I started collecting autographs.

Well back in January I sent to Ashlee(not sure what address), and I never heard back, so I gave up on that one. A little more than two weeks ago I sent to her again at the United Talent Agency address, so I'm still waiting to hear back from her.

I started a couple years ago with a book I bought with a few celebrity addresses. I sent about 4 and got 1 RTS. The other 3 were PP's. (I guess it wasn't a very good booK) I remember getting the first one in the mail and how cool I thought it was. So about 1 month ago I had so many celebrities I wanted auto's from I looked for a couple hours until I found this site. I've had 13 autographs in the last month and 5 fan packs (I think) So it's now just a hobby that I re-started. And now that it's the summer I seem to have more free time.
