am shocked. Devastated. Mortified. And many other adjectives of that nature... Where do I even begin??
On Friday, I went to Long Beach for Joan Collins' one woman show. Like any healthy, normal gay I can't help but worship her for her bitchiness, her glamour, and her incredible talent as an actress. Not to mention the woman looks better at 76 than any 30 year old I know...And, who doesn't admire that!?!
When I heard about the show, I immediately bought front row tickets and decided to do a portrait of Joan, so I could grab some photos of her with it for Odyssey Magazine and WOW report. While the show ending up being the most entertaining hour and a half performance I've ever seen in my life. The two minute story Joan told the audience about how early in her career she met Marilyn Monroe and Marilyn warned her about sleazy studio heads that sleep with young actresses in exchange for movie parts, was worth the price of admission alone. Unfortunately, my evening was followed by sheer and utter tragedy...
Before the show, I set up a photo-op through Joan's amazingly kind and cooperative publicist. As far as the portrait was concerned, I figured it would go down the same as it did with Paris Hilton, Tori Spelling, Tammy Faye, and all of the other fancy ladies I've given portraits to. I was certain upon presenting Queen Joan with the portrait, she would snatch it out of my hand, she would tell me she loves it, cameras would flash, and we'd be instant friends....Oh, how wrong I was!!!!
Okay... before I go any further... I have to say...Truthfully, the portrait was definitely not my best work... I was not happy with it myself... I've been burnt out lately on portraits, okay??? I'm kind of over doing them after 10 years... Anyway, I'm an idiot and I should have realized: "OMG it's JOAN COLLINS!! Get it together!! " I should have done the best portrait of my life! But, what did I do? I smoked too much pot, I watched old episodes of Dynasty on You Tube as "research" and ending up spending only a day actually working on the portrait.... Friday night came sooner than I expected, so I finished it quickly. I thought it looked "good enough", so, I sprinkled some glitter on it , glued a couple tacky rhinestones around it and ran out the door.. Well, "good enough" doesn't work for Joan Collins!!!
When I arrived at the theater, her husband Percy and my new best friend Patty Freedman (Joan's publicist) said the portrait was fabulous and Joan would certainly like it. I realize now, they were both just being polite....
After the show, my big moment came to hand Joan the portrait. Well, Joan Collins took one unimpressed glimpse and (in front of everyone backstage) she said: "You keep it. I have so many portraits of myself.." I instantly wanted to throw myself off the nearest cliff, but, I somehow maintained composure long enough for my much coveted photo op with the Queen herself and my shity portrait. Watch the video and see the absolute horror for yourself!!!

I love Joan but ,shes gotta respect the fact this guy spent ages on it and is a fan she could have taken it and flung it away there no need to be rude if i had spent all that time on it and she said that to me id have taken the painting and smacked her on the face with it to give her a reality queue without fans dear joan you are but nothing you do best to remember that dear xx
@ socal truth: Whoa! Why are you such a hater! This video is hilarious. Sham says he set it up with her publicist in his write up. Where do you get information that he wasn't invited? And I'm sure Joan Collins would agree that this incident is amusing and funny. She's made an entire television career off of being a bitch so.. Maybe you should lighten up and think about why you have personal weird feelings towards Sham considering you don't know him or the situation obviously
There's a word for people like Sham, PARASITE. First off this was a PRIVATE post show party where he wasn't even invited....and did you see the way he stepped in front of the blond woman? It's attention seeking 'shams' like Sham that makes me wanna puke.
I read about this in the National Enquirer and figured the incident was blown out of proportion.Joan Collins should stop badmouthing her co-stars and appreciate the few fans she has out there.I felt bad for the guy.I wanna give him a hug.
Wer Joan nicht mag, sollte die Klappe halten und sich keine Videos von ihr ansehen! Wie blöde muss man sein??? Ja, ihr alle seit gemeint, die hier auf Joani rumhacken. Seht euch erstmal an und dann reden wir weiter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!
I don't think she ever said she didn't like it, what she said is that she has a ton of portraits of herself. In fact, another fan of hers had her sign one, which she did happily some months ago...but she didn't take that one either.
What we see in this video is a woman who did a performance of a one woman show, had done a lineup of fans which she's lucky to have and was basically burned out, tired and impatient.
And yet, she still posed for a photograph and thanked the artist for the portrait
