Dec 18 2007Will Ferrell named worst autograph signer
Will Ferrell was officially named the worst celebrity autograph signer. Despite having a huge fanbase the comedy actor hates signing autographs, Steve Cyrkin, the editor and publisher of Autograph magazine, told Reuters:
"What's so frustrating about Will Ferrell being the worst autograph signer this past year is that he used to be so nice to fans and collectors, and a great signer. What makes him so bad is that he'll taunt people asking for his autograph."
Holy crap, is Will Ferrell wearing a cowboy hat? That is hilarious. Seriously, where does this guy come up with stuff? I don’t care that he pisses in his fan's faces and won't sign autographs. Walk around with a cowboy hat like that and you’re A-okay in my book. Aw, man, I hope he gets gratuitously naked in his next movie. That gag never gets old!

I'm sorry I ruined your lives, and crammed eleven cookies into the VCR.

Big Deal!! Who gives a shit about getting his autograph. Is it a slow news day? Is there anything better that the Fish can post??
3. Gerald_Tarrant - December 18, 2007 1:48 PM
I name him 'Worst wearer of a cowboy hat'. I've never seen a hat look that bad on someone. The 'Fro has to go.
4. Jimbo - December 18, 2007 1:48 PM
Veggi, You still have a VCR? Do you keep it next to the 8 track player??

Whoaaaa there Hoss, that broke back mountain hat has to go.

So not only is he not funny but he's an asshole? Good going Will.
I have a huge grudge against this guy since he said "Who cares about that freak anymore anyway?" about Lindsay Lohan. Way to bully and publically humiliate a teenager, one-trick pony.
8. FRIST!!! - December 18, 2007 1:52 PM
I wanted to hear more about the "taunting".
WTC is a VCR???..

Beta>VCR any day.

Yee hawww!!!
Here's another one who couldn't pay me to fuck him.
The cross eyed thing makes him look like a sweet little kitten tho.
11. veggi - December 18, 2007 1:56 PM
4- It's a Will quote silly.
12. Texas Tranny - December 18, 2007 1:57 PM
I still have a ton of porn on Beta.
13. veggi - December 18, 2007 1:59 PM
Really? You all don't like Will?..
Well, smack me silly and hide my clothes! I could watch Anchorman, Talledega Nights, and even Elf over and over......
14. Jimbo - December 18, 2007 2:00 PM
@12 TT, I though you had tons of porn period!!
15. Pastafarian - December 18, 2007 2:06 PM
Is he still famous? He was never funny. He even looks like a dick.
16. Danklin24 - December 18, 2007 2:08 PM
This guy is a complete douchebag. Warning: Do not see Walk Hard. I have seen a screening of it and it sucks hardcore. I mean come on, its made by the same assbags that made Talladega nights. God damn that was a terrible movie.
17. John - December 18, 2007 2:09 PM
Autographs are stupid and pointless. It's rude to ask a stranger to sign some random piece of paper.
18. mike - December 18, 2007 2:18 PM
He's like Adam Sandler - not funny, and a complete prick in real life. But retards like veggi love their movies, so the rest of us are stuck with them. Thanks, tards.
19. veggi - December 18, 2007 2:25 PM
Mike, You're stuck with them? How about finding a mind of your own and watching things you enjoy? I know, individualism is hard for jackasses such as yourself... and by the way, Grandmas Boy is brilliant.... in which Adam Sandler helped make. Now, go watch your clueless humorless life fly by without enjoyment. Cheers.
20. Gerald_Tarrant - December 18, 2007 2:29 PM
"Grandmas Boy is brilliant"
I think I love you. Or at least for tonight.
21. Methos - December 18, 2007 2:33 PM
He's a comedian ? really ? someone point me to something remotely funny he's done, because you can't mean his movies FFS ?
22. veggi - December 18, 2007 2:35 PM
Gerald, alright. One night it is!.. Can we watch Grandmas Boy?
23. Gerald_Tarrant - December 18, 2007 2:36 PM
Anchorman was a riot. He pretty much stole Wedding Crashers. Hilarious in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.
24. Ruby - December 18, 2007 2:36 PM
@ mike
I agree with you on Adam Sandler. He seems like a really funny guy in real life, during interviews and such. But when he's "acting" he just comes of like this retarded assclown and not funny at all.

Sorry for the dubbelpost! Also: I thought Will Ferrell was hilarious in Old School. I still don't get why that Luke-fellow keeps getting parts in comedies. Now that guy is not even remotely funny. He just keeps playing the character over and over again.
27. beesknees - December 18, 2007 2:43 PM
I think he's a jackass if this story is true. He gets paid millions, the least he can do is sign an autograph for someone. Stars have no rights! They exist for the public.
28. awkward boner - December 18, 2007 2:54 PM
dont hate the player, hate the game. that sexy game we call life.
29. D. Richards (Male.) - December 18, 2007 2:55 PM
Ol' Billy-Bob Will learned something this past year: He ain't funny. Someone explained to him that maybe the first time he ran almost naked in a movie, flailing his arms, it was funny - - the fifth, or sixth time, c'mon. Now Ferrell's bitter.
Hey, Willy? I'm kidding of-course. The nudity is the only thing you have going for you. Honestly, I've never understood your stardom. You were never funny on SNL. I mean, Saturdat Night Live hasn't been funny in over a decade but, you, you were horrible. Breaking character by laughing in ever skit. Fuck, man, you really suck. Do you know that?
30. Micky Mc - December 18, 2007 2:56 PM
This look inspired the term: Asshat
31. Gerald_Tarrant - December 18, 2007 2:56 PM
A few years back, on two seperate days, I had Mel Gibson and Harrison Ford in my office (I sold motorcycles at the time).
Anyhow, when we finished, Harrison stood by while people ran to grab Polaroid cameras and posed with them and then signed them. I thought, pretty cool.
When Mel and I finished signing paperwork he refused to sign any autographs or take pictures with people. He offered a handshake and a brief "worship people who actually do something worthwhile for a living, doctors and teachers." Again, pretty cool.
32. Desi - December 18, 2007 2:57 PM
I'm glad to see others that don't think this guy is funny. He is a creep besides. Also on the not funny list are Robin Williams, Steven Colbert, Steve Carell, Dennis Leary, Billy Cristal, and George W. Bush.
33. veggi - December 18, 2007 3:00 PM
Gerald... you met Harrison???? Now, I think I love you!! I'd love to "meet" him..
34. Celebrity Gossip - December 18, 2007 3:24 PM

36. TS - December 18, 2007 3:32 PM
Autrograph seekers are a bunch of retards, fuck 'em all. What the fuck are you gonna do with a scrap of paper with someone's signature? Get a life (yet here i am on TheSuperficial.com as if I have one).
37. cookie monsta - December 18, 2007 3:34 PM
maybe he just found out that Travolta isn't doing JR Ewing in the Dallas movie, now here's a guy that could do a lot for that character!! I love the Ferrell, and isn't that the same thing everyone else was saying about slurry Lohan? (@ #7?)
38. BaconMessiah - December 18, 2007 3:56 PM
I love when people on here address the person/celebrity directly in thier post, like that person will be getting done filming for the day and runs home to read the superficial. Now that's funny.
#31 Mel isn't cool. just drunk. And profound apparently.
39. Natitude - December 18, 2007 3:58 PM
@ 32 - Desi
Ummm... so who exactly do you find funny?... no one? Personally, I love Will Farrell, asshole or not. The reasons I find him funny have nothing to do with him being a nice guy or 'down to earth'. He cracks me up in his movies, and that's all I can ask of any comedian.
40. havoc - December 18, 2007 4:49 PM
Most over-rated comic (?) out there.....
Same gags. Same lame jokes. Same schtick.
Next.....

41. Uhhh - December 18, 2007 4:55 PM
Who the hell cares about this or what anyone thinks?!?!
42. Jaffo - December 18, 2007 5:14 PM
Sometimes you posters here are just sooooo funny. Yeah, Will Ferrell is not funny at all. Right. I am curious as to whom exactly some of you chumps ripping him think is funny? Joan Rivers? Rip Taylor? Larry the fucking Cable Guy? Oh and by the way, asking for autographs is about the dumbest fucking thing ever. Anyone asking for autographs ought to be shot in the face and then pissed on. Losers...
43. 23apples - December 18, 2007 5:31 PM
Dammit! Steve Cyrkin beat me to the punch AGAIN. Looks like I have to find another idea for a magazine... I totally thought a magazine based only on autographs would be the one to rake in my millions . Shoot.
44. BunnyButt - December 18, 2007 6:04 PM
No, no, he's a talentless hack.
** Looks around furtively and stuffs her "Elf" DVD behind the couch cushions, hoping no one notices. **
45. Kate - December 18, 2007 6:22 PM
Will Ferrell is so funny, Old School was great (despite having no plot), Anchorman was great, Elf was great, even Kicking and Screaming was great. I agree, those of you who said he's not funny, please tell us who IS funny. It should be very enlightening.
46. scooby - December 18, 2007 6:31 PM
i have always thought that this guy looks too much like george w. bush to not be related to him. well they're both assholes, so besides looking like idiots that's something else they have in common.
47. Danklin24 - December 18, 2007 6:51 PM
I dont think Adam Sandler should be lumped into the same category as this asshat. Grandmas boy was pretty damn funny, as was Billy Madison. Hell the onlyunfunny movie Sandler was in was punch drunk love. That was just a horrible script.
48. Danklin24 - December 18, 2007 6:53 PM
If you guys want to know who IS funny and will always be funny. that man is Dana Carvey. That guy is a fucking genius.
49. Kate - December 18, 2007 7:10 PM
DANA CARVEY!!!! GMAFB!!!
50. engel - December 19, 2007 12:16 AM
I am his faithful fan. I often share his news and videos with my friends at pubspa.com. I love him forever.
51. stinson beach - December 19, 2007 1:16 AM
so he realizes "the top" sucks because now he's forced to repeat himself forever and kiss the asses of people he probably despises and who now control his career. oops! comedy-as-lifestyle isn't so cool when you're ready to do something serious or when you no longer feel like dancing to their music. maybe jim carrey and will can overthrow the powers that be, but probably not.
sorry will. maybe you can make some more subtly anti-christian movies and shame yourself for more money. that's about whatcha got left, bro.
52. D. Richards - December 19, 2007 1:18 AM
Kate? How about Bill cosby? Yeah.. He's great. What about Dane Cook? Hagh! That's what I thought.
No, I'm kidding they both blow.
Let's see, who's funny: David Cross. Richard Pryor! Sarah Silverman. Bob Odenkirk. George Carlin. Henry Rollins (Snake-man). Patton Oswald (Brilliant). Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Judd Apatow. Jon Stewart. John C. Reilly's. George Lopez (Great timing). I could keep going.
53. Spanky - December 19, 2007 7:49 AM
Ollie Williams is funier than all of you.
54. JoBlo - December 19, 2007 8:44 AM
Will Ferrell is seriously the most un-talented person in Hollywood, I'm so glad to hear that this no-talent, un-funny worthless POS is also a DOUCHEBAG!
55. JoBlo - December 19, 2007 8:46 AM
Adam Sandlerstein...now HE'S funny!

What's more amusing, Will Ferrell, or thesuperficial.com copy?
58. Amanda - December 19, 2007 11:12 PM
david spade wrote all the scetches that dana carvey did while at snl and carvey got all the credit! Then after dana carvey went on his own he tanked fucking big time, you wanna give someone the nod of funny and great give it to david spade
59. Jon - December 20, 2007 10:44 PM
I met will ferrell today and he signed me an autograph at startbucks...it was actually a note to go to my class late that said please excuse jon he was buying me a pack of ciggarettes...seemed like a pretty nice guy to me
60. makemepuke - December 20, 2007 11:58 PM
Sometimes he is funny but most of the time he is a fuckin arrogant prick.
61. groonk - December 21, 2007 6:17 AM
he should be drawn, quartered and whipped within an inch of his life!
have you seen the trailer for his next "movie"?
GHASTLY doesn't begin to cover it.
62. Lisa Bowen - December 22, 2007 10:47 PM
WIll Ferrell was with his wife and two sons today shopping at the Barnes and Noble bookstore and he was super nice and gracious to my 9 year old daughter. I am tired of all the negative crap, some "fans" are annoying. We were very respectful to him and he couldn't have been nicer.
63. Phil - December 23, 2007 2:11 PM
Look at this hat, it looks terrible. I bet if you buy this hat, you get a free bowl of soup! Oh, it looks good on you though...
64. Jessica - December 28, 2007 8:33 PM
Yeah, I heard that he was a douchebag in real life. That's too bad, I liked him.
65. Kayla - January 27, 2008 7:10 PM
You guy's are crazy, Will Ferrell is awesome, Adam Sandler is definately awesome!!!The Longest yard rules!!!!Will Ferrell is pretty dar awesome also, I just got an autographed Taladega Night's (Rickey Bobby) autograph, because my brother worked on set with him recently, and was very nice about the whole thing, Kudos to Will!!!!! Yes his autograph is very messey!! LOL
66. John - March 19, 2008 7:09 PM
Ferrell is pathetic. So not funny. Nothing more pathetic when someone thinks they're funny and they're not. Ferrell galivants around more rancid than a dead horse attempting to foist his zero humor on the public and no offense to the average Joe or Josephine....., but people laugh, as if he's funny, not to mention not arrogant..
Will, you've had more than your fifteen seconds of fame......, disappear.
67. Will F. - April 8, 2008 1:19 PM

BOO!
68. Factotum - May 12, 2008 2:57 PM
Autograph magazine bases its so-called "best" and "worst" signers list on the experiences of just a few professional collectors, people who follow stars around to get their signatures and then turn around and sell it for profit. Can't blame
stars for not signing for that lot. Autograph magazine is not credible. Its annual "best of and worst of " list is just a shrewd way to get media attention.
Will Ferrell actually DOES sign for fans through the mail. He signed for me, so I'm speaking from personal experience. He isn't rude to his fans, just to dealers.

Yeah you're right, he's not funny. That's why he was the highest paid actor on SNL!!! But good thing you and all the other pricks on here no more then all of his six million fans. Thanks for you're opinions, but no one cares.

HE was also named worst actor. The cowboy hat is not a joke its PSEUDO-American Expressionism that is it is a revelation. If you read his biography on WIKI it says that his relative was the orginator of BLUE-EYED SOUL as if it had to be bleached. That would mean white supremacy of the OLD SOUTH "GEORGIA on my mind" is one of their songs who but an OKIE would have Georgia on their mind. THINK ABOUT IT. he aint heavy he is my brother is bout the bionic man form OJAI and th orange revolution.Did you see his expression towards the African man in ELF .
