At the height of REM's success I was outside Brixton Academy in London to see Radiohead perform. Stipe walked out of the Tube station, got cash out of the ATM and walked off as if he were anyone else on the street. No security, no ego, nothing. He truly was a mega star at that time and for me his conduct is what sets him apart from so many others. I think because he acted so anonymously people didnt really notice him. And here he conducts himself like a gentleman...respect.
I think this is disrespect in the extreme.A genius like Stipe shouldnt be treated in this way.Christ ! the f**kin paps think he's Moby for God's sake. Tossers who aint got nothin better else to do in life and are jealous of other peoples success
This is disgusting that some stupid paps with cameras want to just stand there and exploit the legend that is Michael Stipe. The paps are showing themselves to be worthless pieces of shit here, and quite right, because that's exactly the opposite of what Michael Stipe is.
Mike Stipe is a ledgend . . . . he is like an amazing singer and these freaks just wont leave him alon, if they think theyr better than him id like to them try!!!
i dont feel sorry for him & dont think he wants us to either,hes famous & out in public so he knows people will want to take pics-i actually think people were v well behaved, no-one was intrusive,they asked for pic & then left & hes v gracious in way he talks & behaves-i am v impressed by way he acts & also by fact that hes happy to be out in public & not hidden away with a flunky doing everything for him
i have 2 questions:
1) whats orso?
2) whaton earth is he doing in a horrible pt cruiser?
and i want one of those pt cruisers that michael enters at the end of the video. and yeah, that's a real shame he gets mobbed like that by people who don't even know who he is.
It's a sad shame that these douchebags would enter/invade our country and harass a true legend of alternative music without a clue who he is. Get a life and quit trying to make a quick buck trying to disrespect others.
felt very sorry for michael in this clip. i think it went a tad too far..........having said that if i saw michael stipe on the street i have a feeling i would gawp in awe. saw them in manchester and smiled uncontrollably through the entire concert lol
Couldn't you be satisfied with a couple seconds of video? Not that you should've bothered him AT ALL. There's no news happening here, and you're doing nothing but harrasing him by filming. If I was there I would've punched you in the head.
oh my god, this video is so f*cking sad. i am tired of this stupid world. michael stipe is an artist, a very very good guy. just leave him live his life!!!! i think the most of people are so stupid, mainly who made this video!
He is pure grace.

This shit is hilarious. You can hear the Hollywood TV guys in the background trying to figure out who it is and one of them says it's Moby- LMAO!
Anyway, give this comment a thumbs up if you feel like a creep for watching this. I know I do. It's Michael Stipe- leave the guy alone Hollywood TV.
