Most people argue that when one becomes an actor, they just have to accept being hounded by fans and paparazzi as part of the job, which is true to an extent, but I just wish people would treat them like PEOPLE. They’re just people that are good at their jobs. I saw a youtube video of several people chasing Ginnifer through a parking garage yelling, “where are you going? Why won’t you talk to us?!” kind of meanly, and she was trying to ignore them, wouldn’t look at them, and walked quickly to get to her car. The description for it was something along the lines of “Ginnifer Goodwin being rude to her fans.” And I’m just like…she was ALONE, in a dark parking garage, and people were chasing her…she was probably scared! I sure would have been!
Whatever happened to JMO was probably really frightening, and it sounds to me like maybe she just doesn’t want to caught in a mass of people. Don’t blame her. All the stories and pictures I’ve seen of her and fans on the street or whatever and they way she talks so highly of her fans makes it sound to me like she’s a nice person.
A friend of mine is Snow White’s “friend” at Disney World, and recently Snow White was approached by Ginnifer who told her what a fantastic job she was doing. Absolutely made this Snow’s year. That sounds to me like a nice person. 🙂
OMG about the Ginnifer video- that’s awful! You’re right- she wasn’t being rude…she was probably freaked out! Why on earth do people do stuff like that? It makes me so upset. Poor Ginnifer! What happened to being polite and respectful? Honestly, I would never feel comfortable approaching an actor out in the real world. That is their own time.
I used to work in Disney entertainment myself- I was “friends” with the chipmunks, Pooh Bear, and the mice from Cinderella among others. You wouldn’t believe how people act towards the characters sometimes…I actually had someone hold me by the shoulders for a photo when I was trying to leave!
That’s so nice of Ginnifer to say something to the WDW Snow White- she must have been over the moon. I think Ginnifer comes across as a very cool person- she is a member of D23, the official Disney fan club! I love the pics of Josh and Ginnifer at Disneyland. I’ve also read a few accounts from fans who did get to meet her who said she was just wonderful.
