Dr. Em Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 What I find alarming and very sad is that having Gerry come out number one in a Best British Actor Poll gets basically no play on one of his most popular fan sites, but yet this ridiculous or 'controversial' act in hanging a potted plant out a window has over 3,000 views going on 4,000!!!! Now that is sad!!!!! Girls, the media is over this and to be honest, was never really making a big deal about it. On two televised shows I caught; TMZ and E! they both laughed it off as Gerry having a laugh. No one was hurt. It seems so many of you have waited so long for Gerry to make it so big and now that he is a bonafide Alister and seemingly through it all, has NOT changed in being the fun, cheeky, off the cuff guy he's always been - shouldn't we embrace him for what he is??? Even people we marry and vow to spend our lives with, anger us from time to time. He is Gerry, will hopefully always be Gerry for better or worse. Well for one thing, this thread has been "live" for longer and remember that you probably have every Mod checking this thread often to make sure it "behaves," which counts as views. Whether we like it or not, controversy "sells" and this has CERTAINLY been a controversial thread...for better or worse. This is how I feel about this thread: Any questions?

complicated Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 As you probably know....he made "Inside Edition" last night....a few comments and the picture......but they did strees that it was in fun.....! I really don't have a problem with it..... I'm sure he's sick of all this nonsense.... just as he's sick of the ghouls that chase him with their cameras. All part of show biz I suppose.........poor guy, wait until he returns to the US ...he'll never hear the end of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Um, I personally claim at LEAST 1000 of those views as I was sitting on this thread until the middle of the night - If I didn't click a thousand times over the course of the day, I didn't click once -- and I've got two posts so that proves I DID click more than once. And that's not counting the 10+ other mods eying the thread. I said it earlier and I'll say it again ... if this thread ticks you off, tests your nerves and/or embarrasses you as a fan: stop reading it and stop posting "I wish this thread would go away." It's not rocket surgery, feckryingoutloud. Before you post a reply in this thread, go do something positive and vote for Gerry in the People's Choice Award.

sav8821 Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 (edited) It doesn't embarrass me as a fan. Gerry has not ever embarrassed me, but some of the fan antics have including the scope of this thread. New pics of G don't get this much attention and personally that is what you would think fans would want to see and respond to. I stay away from JJ comments and IMDb because I find most of those posts to be negative, I am really surprised to see this here and with such interest, good or bad. It does not belong here...JMO!

RandomLanda Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 (edited) Someone's clearly missing the point My mother used to say something but I cant say it here because its against the rules but whenever we got "out of pocket" and didnt care for what went on at home she would basically say and im being nice here but "bye". If you knew my mother youd know why LMAO but it was pretty much the same as our lovely mod Spot says. So quit coming in here if it bothers you so much. I call that punishing yourself LOL I know were free to read and go wherever but seriously dont like it, quit reading it. Yeah what he did was very fratboy but thats him and well get over it. More important things to worry about like "can we get someone to dress him in more kilts?" Edited November 20, 2009 by RandomLanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavender1960 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 (edited) Well I was just going to say that googling up Mr. Butler as I do daily, the main headline I am seeing over and over again is Gerry Butler is voted Best Brit actor in Hollywood - so that positive story is being picked up all over the internet. ETA Just pointing out that the story discussed here is already being replaced by this story the latest news on GB. I am a fan of the leather kilt though I might add. Love all the kilts but esp the leather kilt. Edited November 20, 2009 by lavender1960 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lavender1960 Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Okay I totally misread that, I thought you meant the boobies were on the floor because that can happen if the bra is off the body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I challenge everyone who posted in the "dangling plant/bear?" thread to post in THIS thread as well! Helping charities is pretty easy when you're a celebrity, and it can garner a LOT of funds for those in need. Way to go, Gerry! Here is the thread.

What do you mean? A different cut than the one we have seen? Because the one we have seen has also been available on the internet for a long time (illegally of course and in rather bad quality).
