Nicki Minaj Causes Pandemonium Signing Autographs in NYC

Nicki Minaj was visibly stressed and overwhelmed by the numerous requests for autographs and photos from her throng of fans. Some of them waited for over four hours to see and travelled from as far away as Colorado and Miami. Nicki was gracious and tried to accommodate everyone, and even rolled down the window of her SUV to take a few more photos with fans until one got too close. I have to admit that I was surprised by how pretty Nicki Minaj was in person. )You never know with photoshop these days.) And she appeared to have lost a significant amount of weight.

Jim Carrey Briefly Signs Autographs in NYC After Taping "The Late Show with David Letterman"

Most of the fans outside of Ed Sullivan theater were apparently waiting for Nicki Minaj, but Jim Carrey had some fans there too - some of whom kept referring to him as The Cable Guy. Jim Carrey briefly signed some autographs and posed for a few photos, but unlike Nicki Minaj, he didn't roll down the window of his SUV on the corner of 53rd and 8th to sign more autographs.

Tina Fey Signs Autographs for Radio Man in NYC

To the dismay of a lot of her fans, Tina Fey only signed autographs for Radio Man; however, when Radio Man asked Tina if she wanted to sign a photo of the two of them together she declined. The photo was probably from when Radion Man made a cameo appearance on 30 Rock. That's correct, the homeless man in the video was actually on Tina's show.

Slash Signs Autographs in NYC After THE LATE SHOW

Slash's bodyguard was very cautious about repeat autograph seekers. He had a keen eye and was quick to say, "That's it my man, we got to get going." Despite repeated pleas and attempts by professional "graphers", the bodyguard didn't bulge - he simply stated, "That's it!" Obviously, the bodyguard didn't have the recession in mind. It's probably hard out here for a "grapher" and Slash didn't seem to mind signing autographs, so I wonder what the big deal was.

Kid Cudi Signs Autographs in NYC After THE LATE SHOW

I have to say we were surprised by Kid Cudi's screaming female fans. Usually hip-hop fans are more subdued and we see that type of behavior directed at Pop and movie stars. And despite the fact that Kid Cudi took pictures and signed autographs after he exited the studio, they still chased him down 53rd street. Mr. Cudi was gracious enough to roll down the window and even cautioned his female fans to be careful to avoid getting their toes smashed by his SUV.

Robert Downey Jr Poses for Paparazzi Outside THE LATE SHOW WITH LETTERMAN

The temperature recently dropped over 20 degrees in NYC; therefore, most of Robert Downey Jr's fans were not prepared for the cold weather. I actually left 53rd street two times in an attempt to warm up. I went to Hello Deli and bought a cup of black tea from Rupert Jee, but once I discovered that Rupert didn't give me my customary "one sugar," I walked to Starbucks for brown sugar, and a warm Old Fashioned doughnut. On the way back I stopped to buy a fake black "cashmere" scarf from a street vendor on Broadway.
