I dont know if this topic would really go on this board...but here it is anyway.

How many of you have written a celebrity? If you have, who was it? How long was your letter? Did they respond?

Just wondering.....

I wrote Roseanne Barr a short letter in January 2005, and she didn't respond.

I might write to Will Smith and ask him some questions about The Fresh Prince of Belair. :cool:

Last year I wrote Sherwood Schwartz (the creator of Gilligan and The Brady Bunch), and I got a 2 page letter back from him in a little less than three months. He answered all of my questions I had for him. He also sent me 5 autographed pictures. I sent him a thank you letter for the pictures and he even wrote me back again. Sherwood Schwartz is such a great person.

It's actually common for that to happen. I am still waiting on the first letter I ever sent to Carol Burnett (I have sent her three letters). Guess when I sent out the first letter?

June 2003.

I did get my two other letters back, though...The third took a month (January 2004 - February 2004) and the second one took a year (September 2003 - September 2004). So I wouldn't despair... Just be patient. :)

I wrote Nancy McKeon a few years ago when I was like a die hard fan...I grew out of it...and she sent me an autographed picture.

Im also thinking about writing another celeb, but I dunno if I should....I should send it...its like a 5 page letter...so it should be sent...but I dunno if she would want to read something that long. I dont think I'd blame her! LoL

Emailed Argentina Brunetti,(A Wonderful Life) a 98 year old actress that keeps her own weblog on the internet and have gotten several replies back from her.

Did you send a SASE? I know Rachel sends autographed photos if you send one. I'm not sure if the other two ever signed.

I've written to tons and tons of celebrities since 1998 and none of them have ever written back. That doesn't help much, but just had to get that out! :lol:

I wrote to Melissa Joan Hart about 4 years ago. I still wait for the mailman to come every day to see if Melissa replied :)

The only two celebrities I ever wrote to were Jami Gertz (in 1990) and Nicole deBoer (in 1999) and they were both kind enough to send me autograph pictures...which neither of them does anymore. I also have an autographed picture of Kylie Minogue from when I met her in 1988. I am hoping to one day get autograph pictures of Terry Farrell and Jennifer Beals.:)

If the envelope is sealed beforehand how are they going to put the photo in it?:D

I've written to Mary Tyler Moore a couple times. She always sends autographs. I wrote to Valerie Harper, too (I've also met her, she's really sweet!). Betty White is really great about autographs, you don't even need a SASE.

I emailed Linda Purl (Ashley on Happy Days)praising her for her role in the mini-series "Testimony Of Two Men" and I got a very cordial response. I also emailed singer Ricky Nelson's ex wife Kristin Nelson Tinker(who is an artist) telling her how much I enjoyed her autobiography and her art and to ask her a question . Believe it or not she emailed me back in less than an hour! She was gracious and answered my question.
