Celebrity Ass of the Week: Ringo Starr
Sometimes stars forget the people who got them were they are: the fans. Case in point, least-popular Beatle Ringo Starr. The iconic drummer announced in a video on his Web site that he won’t sign any more memorabilia for fans and will throw away all fan mail he gets. In a “serious message to everyone watching,” Starr says:
“Please do not send fan mail to any address you have. Nothing will be signed after the 20th of October. If that is the date on the envelope, it’s gonna be tossed.
“I’m warning you with peace and love I have too much to do.”
Well, let me tell you with peace and love, Ringo, that you are an ass. These are the people who got you where you are. You bang a drum. You don’t sing particularly well, you don’t play an instrument. You keep the fucking beat.
Your complete lack of concern about the fans who allowed your marginally talented career to prosper is ungrateful and it’s disgusting.
I hope that the next time you put out a CD or go on tour, your fans have “too much to do.” I hope that you look in the mirror and see the
Your selfish behavior, your conceit that your time is more valuable than anyone else’s and your complete lack of redeeming behavior in this episode makes you, Ringo Starr, the Celebrity Ass of the Week.
