Dear Mel Gibson,

I know how you feel. All this paparazzi and you're just trying to live your life. When we went to the temples today it was all "One photo, Miss! One photo, please! Please just one!" People were walking by us pretending to be on their cell but really just taking a picture with their camera phone. Or slyly taking pictures of their friends as they walked slowly past us, making it look like we were all together. A car even stopped in the middle of a busy road (causing a minor traffic jam) to ask to take a photo with me!

Small children were running up to shake my hand. Mothers were bringing their babies over for me to hold their hands. At some points there would be a crowd of people around just waiting for their turn to touch me.

So yes, Mel, I know how you feel. (Who needs Bollywood to be a star? Not me!)

Feelin' ya,
r
