Has anyone met Lea? She's not friendly to fans.

I totally agree with you, rh, and I am sorry that happened to you. It is one thing to bother a celebrity if they are in the store or at a restaurant or sitting beside you on the plane, but when they are at a fan function, they are on duty. It is part of their job. It also seems that people who genuinely value their privacy might wish to think twice, then think again about pursuing a show business career. Or at least not go to the conventions!

She did have a big success later on: The sitcom "Caroline in the City," a popular series with a decent run.
And I agree that she was great in "Howard the Duck." Really good casting of Lea as Bev, and not as bad a movie as some critics have claimed. -

quote: but put yourself in her place she probably just sometimes doesn't feel like dealing with fans day in and day out.
Well she has to get over it and deal with it, she decided to become an actor and become famous so she has to deal with the baggage. Celebrities that ignore fans is just a complete slap in the face, they want us to watch their movies and spend our money, but they dont acknolodge us. beep em I say, next time you see her, stand in line and when you get to her, turn your back on her and dont move, try and get a group of people to come along with you and turn their back too. -

No she doesn't have to get over it or deal with it, and your idea of "try and get a group of people to come along with you and turn their back too." is about as childish as one can possibly get. So what would that prove? That you and your group of friends can show Lea just what petty vindictive people her "fans" are? You and people like you have no idea what actors go through on a daily basis. And yes I have met Lea and she acted like any other person that you would meet, she didn't gush and get all "oh my a fan is paying me such a favor by saying hi to me" but she wasn't rude either. And there are actors that are actually rude as heck to the media and public in general, and not just to the occasional idiot fan who expects to be overwhelmed with appreciation for saying "hi I loved the movie you did 20 years ago", such as Tommy Lee Jones, there have been several instances where he was so rude and nasty during interviews promoting a new movie they have been cut short and two they would not air. So get a dose of a the real life, not everyone is good with the public every day, even if they are actors, just like some people can't spell or can't be bothered to use correct grammar.

If she didn't want to deal with fans, then why on earth was she at a public event like that?
I am sorry, but actors are not brain surgeons. They aren't saving lives, changing the world, etc. They are people, nothing more. There's something called common courtesy. No human being should be exempt.
LT can suck it, as far as I'm concerned. -

Absolutely NOT That's something that ungrateful "fans" have decided will be part of a celebrity's job description but the truth is, a celebrity's only job is that which they're being paid for.. A football player's job is to win football games, not sign your T-Shirt or do photo-ops after the game and a Rock Star's job is to make albums and perform live, not make small talk, shake your hand or sign your T-Shirt.. The same is also true for Actors, their job is to make movies or TV shows and not make you feel like they're your best friend or sign your photo It's this generation's belief that they're Entitled to something and that a celebrity MUST interact with "fans" Now, if they do interact, fine, but it's because they choose to and you should feel grateful.. But you're not ENTITLED to anything, except for the movie that you paid to watch

Man, what a messed up place your head must be in, Diplo. "Someone was a jerk to me. Obviously it was my fault somehowI just have to find out HOW." Some people are just evil. Not connected to anything going on around them at the time, just the way they are by nature. Personally, I think she's still steamed about that "Howard the Duck" fiasco.
