Lindsay Lohan authenticity debate
Posted: Tue Sep 26, 2006 10:02 pm
First off, I'm HOPING this doesnt turn into an "e-fight" which results in the thread getting locked (which has happened with a lot of authenticity threads lately)
I always thought Lindsay Lohan's autographs were secretarial, and to be honest, didnt think there was a chance they could be genuine, until recently.
I noticed that ALL Lindsay TTM's are signed by 2 people - one does the insribing/personalising, and one does the actual autograph. You can tell this by the pen used, pressure of pen, etc.
Now, after reading that, you would think that it suggests that they are in fact, genuine, right? A secretary does the inscription, and Lindsay then signs them.
However I know a lot of people still believe that they're secretarials, and ONLY secretarials.
Of course this begs the question "why would 2 different secretaries write on the same photo? One secretary might as well do both the inscription AND the autograph". Its this very question that leaves me in 2 minds over Lindsay's TTM signing habits.
Personally I've gone from thinking 100% secretarial to 50-50 as to what they are. The question above has really got me thinking.
The main sticking point for me is that Lindsay is either working, or partying, would she really spend any of her time signing autographs for fans that have written to her?
Also my success from today - http://www.fanmail.biz/mboard/viewtopic.php?t=42477 - looks slightly different - to me anyway - from "usual" Lindsay TTMs, theres no heart in the "L" for a start, and the "Y" is lacking a loop.
Although this could be explained by a different secretary too.
So then, genuine, or secretarial? What do you think?
And remember - NO ARGUING!
