1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,120 Welcome to Send Me On My Way. 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,440 I'm your host, Audrey Dean Kelly. 3 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,480 And on this podcast, we're gonna talk about everything 4 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:09,920 from music to pop culture to reality TV 5 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:13,440 to pretty much whatever I want. 6 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:14,680 So let's get into it. 7 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,520 All right, y'all, today I wanted to talk about fanatics. 8 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,980 My own history being a fanatic, 9 00:00:22,980 --> 00:00:27,760 my then history with someone being a fan of my own, 10 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:32,760 and the fine line between adoration and obsession. 11 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:34,920 So let's get into it. 12 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,600 And this episode was inspired recently by Chappell Roan 13 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:44,600 putting up boundaries and rejecting fandom. 14 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:50,440 And historically, I have been quite a little fanatic. 15 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,440 Let me tell you, my first experience, 16 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,120 I was a new Kids on the Black fan 17 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,240 when I was like three years old, 18 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,040 my sisters and my cousins were fans. 19 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,560 So I was a big Donnie girl, guys. 20 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,320 Let me tell you, I had an airbrushed T-shirt 21 00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:11,240 that my mom got for me at the mall that said, 22 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:12,480 I heart Donnie. 23 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,640 Honestly, mom, I hope we still have that 24 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,400 of all the stuff you've saved. 25 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,280 Pull that out of the archives. 26 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,800 So yeah, it said, I heart Donnie. 27 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,280 And yeah, I was obsessed. 28 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,600 I had a birthday party that my parents hired 29 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:34,600 like performers to come to that they pretended 30 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,200 like it was new kids on the block, 31 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,280 except like it was only three guys. 32 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,920 And somehow I believe for years that new kids on the block 33 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,180 came to my birthday, because I was like four. 34 00:01:45,180 --> 00:01:50,180 And years later, I watched the VHS and alas, it was not. 35 00:01:50,180 --> 00:01:54,620 But I was a Donnie girl all the way. 36 00:01:54,620 --> 00:01:59,620 And that fandom definitely continued when I was, 37 00:02:03,060 --> 00:02:04,940 gosh, when did the Spice Girls come out? 38 00:02:04,940 --> 00:02:07,020 I was in third grade when they came out 39 00:02:07,020 --> 00:02:10,020 and pretty much as soon as they came out, 40 00:02:10,020 --> 00:02:12,540 I was obsessed. 41 00:02:12,540 --> 00:02:15,440 And when I tell you, like that was my experience 42 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:20,440 with being a borderline crazy fanatic. 43 00:02:22,020 --> 00:02:24,700 I was obsessed with Ginger Spice. 44 00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:29,700 I remember I would stay home and I would put their CD on 45 00:02:31,180 --> 00:02:34,820 and I would practice like, first of all, 46 00:02:34,820 --> 00:02:36,580 I loved listening to the album. 47 00:02:36,580 --> 00:02:39,500 This is how like now I know I was meant to do music. 48 00:02:39,500 --> 00:02:40,820 It's like, I would listen to the album 49 00:02:40,820 --> 00:02:44,460 and I loved breaking down who was singing each part. 50 00:02:44,460 --> 00:02:48,660 And I loved working on mimicking the vocals 51 00:02:48,660 --> 00:02:50,660 of each Spice Girl. 52 00:02:50,660 --> 00:02:53,580 And like honestly, I could still do it. 53 00:02:53,580 --> 00:02:55,220 I can still listen to the whole album 54 00:02:55,220 --> 00:02:57,980 and I can tell you exactly who's singing at any time. 55 00:02:57,980 --> 00:03:00,620 And like, I think most of us Spice Girl fans, 56 00:03:00,620 --> 00:03:05,620 like, you know, Mel B definitely, Sporty Spice. 57 00:03:07,140 --> 00:03:09,100 I love you, Balcy, am I getting confused? 58 00:03:09,100 --> 00:03:14,020 Sporty Spice certainly vocally carried the Spice Girls 59 00:03:14,020 --> 00:03:19,020 in a lot of ways, but I feel like I should edit that out. 60 00:03:19,700 --> 00:03:21,380 I might get in trouble from people, 61 00:03:21,380 --> 00:03:24,060 but let's be honest, she did. 62 00:03:24,060 --> 00:03:27,460 But yeah, I was obsessed, guys, and I was so obsessed. 63 00:03:27,460 --> 00:03:29,740 This was like, oh my God, you guys are gonna laugh. 64 00:03:29,740 --> 00:03:33,780 This was right when AOL was coming out. 65 00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:38,780 So this was back in the day when AOL first came out, 66 00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:40,940 there were like chat rooms. 67 00:03:40,940 --> 00:03:44,660 And third grade, Audrey and her friends 68 00:03:44,660 --> 00:03:46,580 would get on these chat rooms, 69 00:03:46,580 --> 00:03:49,020 these like Spice Girl chat rooms. 70 00:03:49,020 --> 00:03:53,100 And I remember I like got, 71 00:03:53,100 --> 00:03:57,940 I was chatting with some account called Jerry Sis, 72 00:03:57,940 --> 00:04:01,820 no, no, Jerry Girl OO, Jerry Girl OO. 73 00:04:01,820 --> 00:04:03,700 Because I would like, you could like look up 74 00:04:03,700 --> 00:04:07,220 in the people list, like you could look for people. 75 00:04:07,220 --> 00:04:09,340 And so I would look for the Spice Girls 76 00:04:09,340 --> 00:04:12,580 and I convinced myself that this one account, 77 00:04:12,580 --> 00:04:16,540 Jerry Girl OO was Ginger Spice, 78 00:04:16,540 --> 00:04:18,420 and that we were chatting, 79 00:04:18,420 --> 00:04:20,980 and because they fully were pretending to be. 80 00:04:20,980 --> 00:04:24,500 And like in hindsight, I really hope this was somebody 81 00:04:24,500 --> 00:04:27,380 that I know that was messing with me. 82 00:04:27,380 --> 00:04:28,420 That would be amazing. 83 00:04:28,420 --> 00:04:32,700 So if it was, please reveal yourself. 84 00:04:33,700 --> 00:04:37,460 But in hindsight, it was probably some creepy old dude. 85 00:04:37,460 --> 00:04:41,500 So, but that was the Wild West of AOL 86 00:04:41,500 --> 00:04:42,700 when it first came out. 87 00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:46,180 And you guys who lived it, we all know it. 88 00:04:46,180 --> 00:04:51,180 I mean, our generation, it was some unfiltered shit, 89 00:04:51,620 --> 00:04:52,900 let me tell you. 90 00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:56,340 But I would talk to this account 91 00:04:56,340 --> 00:04:59,060 and they convinced me they were Ginger Spice. 92 00:04:59,060 --> 00:05:03,100 And so I was obsessed enough that I was AOL chatting 93 00:05:03,100 --> 00:05:08,100 with, you know, creep thinking 94 00:05:08,300 --> 00:05:09,660 that I was talking to this person. 95 00:05:09,660 --> 00:05:14,660 So I certainly have had my days of obsession. 96 00:05:14,660 --> 00:05:18,820 Lord knows when Britney Spears came out, I remember, 97 00:05:18,820 --> 00:05:21,380 I mean, my friends from like seventh grade 98 00:05:21,380 --> 00:05:23,900 will tell you stories about how I used to be like, 99 00:05:23,900 --> 00:05:26,380 guys, wanna have a singing contest 100 00:05:26,380 --> 00:05:29,660 to see who can sing baby one more time the best? 101 00:05:29,660 --> 00:05:32,020 I'm like, they would all be like, no, Audrey, we don't. 102 00:05:32,020 --> 00:05:34,380 We know you just wanna sing baby one more time for us. 103 00:05:34,380 --> 00:05:36,740 So it would be my like sad excuse to be like, 104 00:05:36,740 --> 00:05:39,980 listen to me, listen to me, listen to me. 105 00:05:39,980 --> 00:05:41,980 And it's like I'm still doing that now. 106 00:05:45,580 --> 00:05:49,420 But anyways, yeah, your girl has been a fanatic 107 00:05:49,420 --> 00:05:51,260 many a times in her life. 108 00:05:51,260 --> 00:05:55,620 And certainly part of why I became an artist 109 00:05:55,620 --> 00:05:58,620 is because I had that fandom within me 110 00:05:58,620 --> 00:06:01,780 that fueled my love of music and my love of singing 111 00:06:01,780 --> 00:06:05,300 and I definitely am a better singer 112 00:06:05,300 --> 00:06:09,900 because of how many hours I spent rehearsing 113 00:06:09,900 --> 00:06:12,420 every single part of every single different 114 00:06:12,420 --> 00:06:14,740 spice girl vocal trying to exactly match 115 00:06:14,740 --> 00:06:18,860 what they were doing for sure. 116 00:06:18,860 --> 00:06:22,100 So it's interesting because every artist 117 00:06:22,100 --> 00:06:24,820 at some point has been a fanatic 118 00:06:24,820 --> 00:06:28,100 and it's part of what fuels your artistry. 119 00:06:28,100 --> 00:06:32,860 But as we see with Chapel Roe now becoming massively famous 120 00:06:32,860 --> 00:06:36,460 very quickly, she's rejecting that fame. 121 00:06:36,460 --> 00:06:41,460 And that stalker, the fans that cross the line, 122 00:06:43,180 --> 00:06:47,740 the fans that cross the line between adoration to obsession 123 00:06:47,740 --> 00:06:50,460 or the ones that expect something from you. 124 00:06:50,460 --> 00:06:54,100 I think people forget, I mean, people act a fool 125 00:06:54,100 --> 00:06:56,380 around celebrities, let me tell you. 126 00:06:56,380 --> 00:07:01,380 Most of y'all act a fool around celebrities, you just do. 127 00:07:01,700 --> 00:07:03,260 You're taking pictures of them, 128 00:07:03,260 --> 00:07:06,100 thinking they don't notice, it's just, 129 00:07:07,500 --> 00:07:11,020 there is a fine line people. 130 00:07:11,020 --> 00:07:15,340 And I will say 99.999 percent of the population, 131 00:07:15,340 --> 00:07:17,860 y'all don't know how to behave around celebrities. 132 00:07:17,860 --> 00:07:22,860 So go figure our artists are putting up boundaries 133 00:07:23,300 --> 00:07:25,140 and thank God. 134 00:07:25,140 --> 00:07:30,140 So to also talk about my own experience with this, 135 00:07:30,620 --> 00:07:35,620 when I was a performer and like y'all, 136 00:07:35,740 --> 00:07:37,140 this was on a lower level. 137 00:07:37,140 --> 00:07:40,220 I was playing shows in Arkansas. 138 00:07:40,220 --> 00:07:41,860 I think I've alluded to this before. 139 00:07:41,860 --> 00:07:45,020 I was like massively oversaturating my market. 140 00:07:45,020 --> 00:07:47,620 Like God bless you guys that were booking me. 141 00:07:47,620 --> 00:07:50,500 Shout out to all of those amazing bookies 142 00:07:50,500 --> 00:07:53,540 across all of those bars in Arkansas 143 00:07:53,540 --> 00:07:57,660 who knew that I was just playing every other night 144 00:07:57,660 --> 00:07:59,420 and still giving me gigs. 145 00:07:59,420 --> 00:08:01,180 Thank you, love you guys. 146 00:08:03,060 --> 00:08:08,060 But I'm giving you that context because it was awesome 147 00:08:08,060 --> 00:08:12,180 when people came out to see me, but there is a fine line 148 00:08:12,180 --> 00:08:15,140 when you're playing every single, 149 00:08:15,140 --> 00:08:16,340 every other night of the week, 150 00:08:16,340 --> 00:08:20,960 when someone starts coming every single time, 151 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,960 that does start to, it goes from being supportive 152 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,600 to being creepy and I certainly had that. 153 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,600 And the guy that did it to me, 154 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:42,880 there was one guy that, yes, he came to every single show 155 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,960 and for a while at the time, I had a boyfriend 156 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,520 who was also coming to my shows who was like, 157 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:53,520 a bigger, he made it so that I felt safe 158 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,360 being there in spite of this person 159 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,480 who kept coming to every single show. 160 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,880 And it was definitely, he crossed a line, 161 00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:12,600 he crossed a big line and when that relationship ended, 162 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:17,600 he immediately at my next show asked me out and I said no. 163 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:25,760 He asked me to go away with him to California and I said, 164 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:32,800 it was to the point that I remember leaving shows 165 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,640 and I'm talking about, I remember playing one show 166 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,560 in West Littorock and it was in this bar 167 00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:42,480 where people could still smoke inside of the bar, 168 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,080 so this was a brutal show to play, 169 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:49,840 but it was a four hour gig and I would play this 170 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,440 and this dude stayed until the very end of my set 171 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,200 and I know some of you guys are gonna say, 172 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,000 he was supporting your music, I'm sorry, 173 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:04,000 but staying till the end of a grueling four hour set 174 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,720 when you've been to the same exact set, 175 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,440 I mean, granted, I didn't play the same set every night, 176 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,440 I played a lot, I let people do covers, 177 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:18,440 but this guy had seen me every other night before that, 178 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,840 so to stay that long till the end, 179 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:26,840 I remember leaving those shows being so fucking creeped out 180 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:32,120 and literally looking in my rear view mirror 181 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,960 as I was driving home, 182 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,400 trying to make sure nobody was following me 183 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,840 and yes, you guys may say that's paranoid, 184 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:45,840 but if that happened to me on such a low level of artistry 185 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,680 as far as the number of fans, 186 00:10:55,240 --> 00:11:00,240 then imagine what that's like when you get 187 00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:03,240 on a much higher level. 188 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,680 I can't even wrap my brain around it, 189 00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:09,720 I don't think any of us can wrap our brains around it 190 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,880 and I don't think that most people can wrap their brains 191 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,880 around the mind fuck that is becoming famous 192 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:21,880 and becoming famous at the warp speed that she just did 193 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,600 to the level that she just did. 194 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:29,440 So look, she's been working at this for a long ass time 195 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,400 and I am not coming on here to say 196 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,200 that she hasn't worked on this for a long time 197 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:40,200 she has, but she has had a meteoric rise in the past 198 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,320 eight months, six months 199 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:50,640 and Chapel is putting up boundaries 200 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,040 and she's rejecting this fame 201 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:58,880 because she has lost a lot of freedom 202 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,880 and there is a downside to being famous, 203 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:08,160 there just is, there are a lot of wonderful, amazing things 204 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,360 that come along with it, don't get me wrong, 205 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,880 but to give up one's personal freedom, 206 00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:19,680 it's not worth it for, in my opinion, 207 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,560 it would not be worth giving up those personal freedoms 208 00:12:27,560 --> 00:12:32,240 unless you were doing it to be able to do what you love 209 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,880 and even if you get it that way, 210 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:40,880 psychologically being able to comprehend your own identity 211 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,840 when it changes that rapidly 212 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,080 and I think that's why you see her now 213 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:54,080 really making a distinction of Chapel Rhone is not just me, 214 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,360 it is my project and she's doing that 215 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,720 because her end game has never been fame. 216 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,640 Now, no, I know you guys are gonna correct me on that, 217 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,960 look, yes, her end game has been fame 218 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,600 in the sense that if you want to be successful 219 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:19,600 as a musician, in most cases, you have to be famous. 220 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,360 So it's a byproduct of success in her artistry 221 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,760 and that's a very, very, very different thing 222 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,200 from chasing fame just to be famous. 223 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:38,000 I'm someone who, look, I would love for this podcast 224 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,920 to be successful, I would love for my music to be successful. 225 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,400 If that meant me becoming famous 226 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:50,400 because I was successful in those fields, 227 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,480 then I would want that. 228 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:58,480 Would I ever go on a reality show and lose my anonymous walks 229 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,680 in Central Park with my kids 230 00:14:01,680 --> 00:14:04,600 and going to the grocery store 231 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:09,600 and I am not someone who likes strangers coming up to me now. 232 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,560 So Lord knows, I wouldn't like it 233 00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:21,560 when I would be super famous, so I get it, I get it. 234 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:26,560 And you're allowed to want to be successful in your art 235 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:32,640 and not be doing it because you want to be famous. 236 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,680 You're allowed to reject that 237 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,040 and I think it's refreshing. 238 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:44,040 And I think, look, there's an amazing podcast 239 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,080 by this girl, Coco Moko. 240 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,640 She talks about, you guys should definitely go listen to it. 241 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,480 I linked it already, but I'll link it again. 242 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,040 She talks about Chapel Roan's Rise 243 00:14:56,040 --> 00:15:01,040 and how it's linked to Pluto moving from Capricorn to Aquarius. 244 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,640 It's brilliant, you should go listen to it, 245 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:09,640 but she has a really interesting insight in that Capricorn, 246 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:11,760 Pluto and Capricorn, which has happened 247 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,960 since basically the apprentice came out 248 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,800 and all of the Kardashians, 249 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,680 it's been in Capricorn, which is a very money, 250 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,720 success-driven sign. 251 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,720 It's all about, that's why you've seen people 252 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,640 like showing off success. 253 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,680 Our art talks about how fame has been very linked 254 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:36,240 to being flashy and showy and how now that it's moving 255 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:41,240 into Aquarius, she talks about how Aquarius rejects that 256 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,880 and you're gonna see more of like a collective 257 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,320 and it's just, I have to tell you, it's so fascinating. 258 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,560 Go listen to it, go follow her account. 259 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,120 She really does, if you're into astrology 260 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,320 and I am very into astrology, 261 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,480 but she does a really interesting intersection 262 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,640 between astrology and pop culture 263 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:08,480 and it's just, mwah, chef's kiss, baby, it's great. 264 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:13,480 But yeah, in general, I think it's great 265 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,000 that artists are putting up boundaries. 266 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,360 You need to see that because look, 267 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,640 we've seen the opposite of that 268 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:24,000 and you have artists like Britney Spears 269 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,880 who have been victims of fame and their success 270 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:32,880 and if she weren't to put up these boundaries 271 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:38,920 and take this time and really try to give herself grace 272 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:46,840 in what she's taking on, if she doesn't do that, 273 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:51,640 she will burn out and we have to protect 274 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,600 our artist's mental health, especially the ones we love. 275 00:16:55,600 --> 00:17:00,600 Especially, I mean, just give her the space she needs 276 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,720 and be grateful that she's not in it for the fame. 277 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,040 I think that's great, she's in it because it's her art 278 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,760 but yeah, y'all should also listen to me, listen. 279 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,880 Y'all stop acting fools around these celebrities. 280 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:23,720 Just stop it, like it's so tacky, just here's some rules. 281 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,920 If they're sitting at dinner, 282 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,800 especially if they're sitting at dinner with their family, 283 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,320 do not go up to them, do not interrupt their dinner 284 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,040 to ask them for an autograph. 285 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:35,960 If they're out with their kids, 286 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,880 you are not gonna stop them to take a photo with them, 287 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,940 they're out with their children, do not talk to them. 288 00:17:41,940 --> 00:17:46,940 Yeah, honestly, unless they open up a conversation with you, 289 00:17:50,220 --> 00:17:53,900 I think it's kind of tacky to approach people 290 00:17:53,900 --> 00:17:58,900 and I mean, drunkenly, I think I've done it 291 00:17:59,060 --> 00:18:02,100 in clubs when I was younger. 292 00:18:02,100 --> 00:18:07,100 I had a really cringy time that I did that with Bruce Willis 293 00:18:07,780 --> 00:18:10,340 and I think that was the one time in my life 294 00:18:10,340 --> 00:18:13,020 where I randomly went up to a celebrity 295 00:18:13,020 --> 00:18:18,020 and I immediately was like, oh, I hate that I did that 296 00:18:21,300 --> 00:18:23,540 and I will never do that again. 297 00:18:23,540 --> 00:18:28,540 But in general, y'all just let them be and you know what? 298 00:18:29,260 --> 00:18:32,460 If you're just a little bit cooler, 299 00:18:32,460 --> 00:18:36,540 you gotta kind of act like a cat, let them come to you 300 00:18:36,540 --> 00:18:40,380 and then you might actually strike up a conversation. 301 00:18:40,380 --> 00:18:42,580 Maybe they will wanna talk to you, 302 00:18:42,580 --> 00:18:46,820 but that's not what y'all are doing 303 00:18:46,820 --> 00:18:49,480 and you're approaching it all wrong. 304 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,260 Give them space, let them be, 305 00:18:52,260 --> 00:18:56,900 do not try to take their photo like they don't notice. 306 00:18:56,900 --> 00:19:01,620 They notice, it's tacky, don't do it 307 00:19:01,620 --> 00:19:05,020 and you don't own them just because 308 00:19:05,020 --> 00:19:08,340 they are a public persona, they are a person. 309 00:19:08,340 --> 00:19:09,580 They are a human being. 310 00:19:09,580 --> 00:19:13,180 So that comes to the end of my show. 311 00:19:13,180 --> 00:19:15,820 As always, thanks for listening y'all. 312 00:19:15,820 --> 00:19:16,660 Love y'all. 313 00:19:16,660 --> 00:19:29,060 Music The heist 314 00:19:46,660 --> 00:19:50,260 In the middle of July, you set my heart on fire 315 00:19:50,260 --> 00:19:54,260 Now you're just a memory and a phase over time 316 00:19:54,260 --> 00:19:58,460 We've run bright, we've run fast, I'm a lover, I've never lied 317 00:19:58,460 --> 00:20:02,860 I can see you smoking in the sun, drink a rose 318 00:20:02,860 --> 00:20:05,460 And you're singing near your home 319 00:20:05,460 --> 00:20:09,260 We were in the Mercedes with a window down 320 00:20:09,260 --> 00:20:26,460 Without an air, we can't speed it now 321 00:20:26,460 --> 00:20:30,060 Took a train out to Quar, show me off to your friends 322 00:20:30,060 --> 00:20:34,060 Try it on full size, but it didn't quiet it 323 00:20:34,060 --> 00:20:38,260 Like a fever train, light a face and I 324 00:20:38,260 --> 00:20:42,260 Time became fast and we said goodbye 325 00:20:42,260 --> 00:20:47,260 Summer's late, it's short and sweet, so let's dance around the play rough winds 326 00:20:47,260 --> 00:20:50,260 On the beach, some hearts can't be taken 327 00:20:50,260 --> 00:20:54,260 We've so longed and we're slow feeling fine 328 00:20:54,260 --> 00:20:58,260 We've run bright, we've run fast, I'm a lover, I've never lied 329 00:20:58,260 --> 00:21:03,260 I can see you smoking in the sun, drink a rose 330 00:21:03,260 --> 00:21:05,260 And you're singing near your home 331 00:21:05,260 --> 00:21:09,260 We were in the Mercedes with a window down 332 00:21:09,260 --> 00:21:34,260 Without an air, we can't speed it now 333 00:21:34,260 --> 00:21:39,260 I can see you smoking in the sun, drink a rose 334 00:21:39,260 --> 00:21:41,260 And you're singing near your home 335 00:21:41,260 --> 00:21:45,260 We were in the Mercedes with a window down 336 00:21:45,260 --> 00:21:50,260 Without an air, we can't speed it now 337 00:21:50,260 --> 00:21:55,260 I can see you smoking in the sun, drink a rose 338 00:21:55,260 --> 00:21:57,260 And you're singing near your home 339 00:21:57,260 --> 00:22:01,260 We were in the Mercedes with a window down 340 00:22:01,260 --> 00:22:05,260 Without an air, we can't speed it now 341 00:22:05,260 --> 00:22:09,260 We were in the Mercedes with a window down 342 00:22:09,260 --> 00:22:35,260 Without an air, we can't speed it now
