Celebrity Stalking is NOT ok!

I have noticed lately that people have an issue with stalking celebrities. Whether it be online or in person. I just want to know what makes people think that it is OK. Are you that desperate to be noticed that you have to bother the same celebrity over and over? Must you tweet the person several times a day? Must you go and "visit" them on set whenever you have a day off from school? Going every month does not make you cool. That makes you a stalker. You do NOT have to go to set every month. Its just weird. And when you say "OMG she recognized me!" Newsflash! Thats not always a good thing! They probably remember you because you go there too much and you scare the hell out of them. Here's an idea, BACK OFF! They don't want you there as much as you want to be there.

OK, I know I probably sound harsh, but here's the thing. There are too many kids/fans out there that think that going to set, tweeting, or writing celebs is the best thing ever. That's fine to an extent. How often do you do it? Do you visit set once every 6-12 months? Or do you do it once every 6-12 days? Do you tweet a celeb once every 1000 tweets? Or do you do it once every 5- 10 tweets? Lastly, do you write a celeb once during the span of your interest in them? Or do you it until you make sure you get a response from said actor or actress? Do you know how busy they are? I love the fans that get mad when the actor/actress doesn't reply back to them. Do you know how busy they are? I love when a fan finally does get a response and they start freaking out. I want to say, "Yes, they replied to you, but its because you tweet that person 20 times a day.

Here is how you should act around a celebrity:
1. Don't force things to happen. Just let it play out the way it is suppose too. If its meant to happen it will happen. Following them around won't do your reputation any good.
2. Be yourself when you meet them. There is nothing a celebrity hates more than an obnoxious and creepy fan on their hands. Just stay calm and talk about normal things. Don't start spurting things out about what you want to happen on a show that said actor or actress is in.
3. Do NOT take a million things to be signed. Take only a few things to be signed. When I say a few, I mean 3 things. That is plenty. Plus, do you really want to be lugging around a bunch of stuff with you all day?
4. After meeting a celebrity don't start acting like you are best friends. Its annoying.

I could probably go on about this for hours, but I don't want to bore you all. Just remember that when you are writing, tweeting, or meeting a celeb to be yourself. Stay calm and think before you speak. Oh, and no need to feel the need to "visit" them 4 times a month or more. That only makes you look bad. Keep it simple and go less often if you so desperately need to go.
