Robert Redford is one of the biggest living legends in Hollywood today. With his charity work and creation of the Sundance Film Festival, his mark is stamped as one of the elites in the business.
Last night he dropped in to watch Jane Fonda's new Broadway show 33 Variations. Robert and Jane appeared in a few movies together in the 1960's, including Barefoot in the Park. About a half an hour after the show, Mr. Redford exited the stage door of the theater where he was greeted with a cheer.
Instead of being friendly he just blew everybody off and ignored the entire crowd. He went walking down the street and was immediately bum-rushed. He continued to turn down requests for autographs and photographs as the cops stepped in. They then rushed him to his car.
Robert is known to be one of the meanest stars in Hollywood when it comes to dealing with fans. You would think that for the era he came from he would be a lot more gracious, but he isn't. He doesn't care about his fans and never really has.
Fortunately for him he has had a long career and it doesn't really matter to him anymore, but young stars should not follow his lead. It is by treating your fans with respect that they keep them and have a career, so hopefully young celebrities will not catch on to his meanness.
