Have you ever written to someone famous?

I remember writing to the president, and writing to Good Charlotte (LOL @ both of these). I got a copy-and-paste letter back from the "oval office" (or whatever they call it), but obviously not the president himself (back when Bush was president!). I didn't expect to actually have him personally read it, or have a written response. I would imagine that he would have better things to do than respond to the millions of letters that he gets per day (although it turns out maybe he ended up NOT being all that productive..) and Good Charlotte sure as heck never wrote me back. I think I didn't really expect a response either time, though, because I understood that both parties were definitely too busy to respond to a small, insignificant person like me. But it was still fun writing them.

I have not written a letter to any of the famous persons. In my early life I have the wish to write to them. But I have not done this. They are famous persons who are in distance so we would keep them in a distance and thousands of people are there to encourage and to congratulate them. So we would congratulate them from here itself.I think like this . So I have not written to them.

That's very interesting tuckersheri! When you write, what do you put in the letters? I'm just curious. Do you just say hi, hello, I'm a fan? Or do you write something dramatic to elicit a response?
I haven't written to anyone famous. But, I do write to presidents of companies if I have a legitimate complaint against their products or services. It doesn't get answered by the president itself, but I usually get something from a secretary or a public relations officer.

I haven't done that once. Well for one, I don't know their addresses and they won't reply anyway..

hello tuckersheri!

when i was in highschool, i remember that i am a fan of this one popular band here in my place...and i am really crazy about them & so i wrote a letter for them...
and i am very happy that they answer back and sending me a poster with their autographs!
that's the first & last letter that i write for someone that's popular...(well at least during that time they are really famous) but now i don't know where they are...

I have never written to anyone famous. I have thought about it though. I am just worried that it will never be read or replied to. I am also afraid to be judged by them also.

Yes.Lol..But that was when I was way,way younger. I had plenty of these fan magazines which have addresses of famous stars. One day I decided to write to them just to see if they ever reply. Sadly, no one did. Lol. SOme of my letters even came back to me. Lol

Yes I did twice to the same person and just like you, I didn't get any response. He was a known successful blogger in our country earning an average of $5,000 a month from Adsense by having over 2,000 posts. That amount of money is bigger in the Philippines because of the Peso-Dollar valuation. $5000 x 47 pesos, that's a lot for one month.

I wrote him a letter saying that I admire him and I also do wish to get the same fortune as his. I also request him to give me some pointers or advice on how to be a good earning blogger.

I even followed his tweets on tweeter. It's either they are too busy to care or is just snobbish.

Yeah, it is next to impossible for us to get responses from these super star if we write a letter to them.

I remember that when I was in middle school, I was really addicted to a popular signer in my country, then, I wrote a letter out of worship and told that I loved his songs. And then, I was waiting for his reply with nervous feelings. But so far, I have not received any responses from him. It is impossible completely.

It is just a joke and don't pay more attention to this.

I did when I was still in high school. I guess it's common that when we are a huge fan of someone, we really want them to know, but I only did that when I was younger. I have written to a few famous people at my place and I did receive one response. I was so happy and it got me thinking whether that was his handwriting or did he ask his personal assistant to do it...
