Hi girls. I need to apologize for my recent anger and disrespectful posts concerning Alice Kim. While I do currently have much going on in my life that would bring me to such anger I had no right to take the load off on her even though my dislike for her is genuine for legitimate reasons. She is not what she seems and I don't enjoy seeing someone duped such as Nicolas because of such ingenuine acts. She is playing him for a fool but that's for him to deal with and decide on a proper course of action.
I do apologize to everyone who I may have offended and vow to clean up my act and be a more considerate poster and not such a moron in such a public place.
It's perfectly OK, Ella. I get in foul moods too but it's mostly frustration/mild depression, so I understand what it's like to post something when you're not yourself.
I will also strive to avoid mentioning Ms. Kim or the marriage in general in future posts. It would never be my intention to cause Nic grief.

What??? Did we hear from "his people"????? I thought we were allowed to air our feelings here. It is obvious we hold HIM in high esteem or this site wouldn't exist.

I think our feelings are very well known so unless some new happening occurs we can focus on other things. Now, if something happens we need to discuss, the gates are open!
Something has happened girls. Just a tad out of my league as well. As much as it kills me, I had to delete many many posts as a result. Ella as well. Apparently freedom of speech holds no existance ANY WHERE! Or perhaps a nerve was struck. Who knows!
More important to me though than this ****ing board or the man who made it come to be, is it's members! So in saying that, I guess we will have to "behave". Publicly anyways.
I'd also like to add that this situation is royally FUCKED because if I've learned anything over the past 8 years of being a fan, it's that Nic has quite a colorful following! I've lurked around tons of fan sites & have even spoke with many fellow fans. Fans of many different personalities & opinions! Whether we like it or not(as fans of his) we are in our "own little world". Let's face it, he's not an Orlando Bloom or someone else claiming the title of "Sexiest Man". Most women cringe when they hear Nicolas Cage & hottie in the same sentence! So what is it about him that has us & the rest of his small following so intrigued? Well for me personally, I (aside from seeing him as the sexiest man) believe that this little fan base of his consists of many "outsiders", me included. From what I know & what i've observed these are the type of people who would be leaving their house to make a late night run to the corner store, have a loved one say "watch out for weirdos", only for them to turn & say with a sly smirk, "I AM the weirdos"! Then turn around and leave feeling a sense of pride in that fact!
Anyways, I don't want anyone to feel bad for what they have said here even though the posts are now gone. Believe me nothing that was said here is anything that wasn't said elsewhere publicly or not! I know there are other sites that like to uphold the "goody, goody" image and that's fine. I guess from now on we'll be following suit. So in saying that, let me plaster on a plastic smile & join Ella in a public apology and a promise that no more negativity will grace this forum!
Every celeb has people who love them and people who hate them. Matter of fact, every person has that too, celeb or not. I'm not going to cry if someone doesn't like me and I'd much rather hear their honest opinions rather than lies. The world works because all people have different opinions and ideas.
I'm happy to be one of the "outsiders" who loves Nic and his work, but not too thrilled about Big Brother crying about our opinions. As if we matter in the grand scheme of Nic's life?
I'm quite proud to be one of the "weirdos" who stands out from the crowd... I've never went in for the standard, garden-variety, cookie cutter "hotties". They do nothing for me... they're bland, plastic, common. Nicolas is uniquely attractive and talented, and I will be fascinated with him forever.

Well, isn't that just HORSESHIT? Every celeb has people who love them and people who hate them. Matter of fact, every person has that too, celeb or not.

Yes horse**** indeed! I couldn't agree more! I also don't see what was said that was so ****ing awful. Maybe the truth just hurts too much!

Me either D! There's something more appealing about the person who will admit that they ate cat food as a child & grew up in a dysfunctional family as aposed to the "I had a very happy childhood" type. LOL!
I never ate cat food - although erasers were very appealing to me. My little brother, on the other hand, sometimes nibbled on Gaines Burgers (the moist dog food shaped like a hamburger patty).

Erasers were a good choice too. I'm not so sure about dog food though. Ha! Listen to the ex catfood eater being selective now! LOL!
Hi ella, i just wanted to say that you should not have to say sorry for being honest. you posted comments that you wanted to say at the time and even if some people didnt like what you had to say you have the right to be honest and speak your mind. i just wanted to let you know that you didnt upset or offend me at any point. with love tracey xxx
just to add to the above comment i made, i too class myself as a so called "weirdo" and a "outsider" its not very often i feel comfortable within my own skin and this is one of the reasons i became such a huge fan of nics because he went out there and did what he had to do even though he is no brad pitt or orlando bloom. who wants to follow the crowd and be the same as everyone else. being different is who we are and being different is better who cares what anyone else thinks. live life girls the way you want to

No need to feel uncomfortable here. Your amongst fellow weirdos now! LOL!
Just how oversensitive has our society gotten anyway? This is just insane!!
None of us receives a paycheck from Nic. We only owe him for his sharing of his talent and our 2 hour escape while watching his films. We are the outsiders who go to see his movies, buy his DVD's, and tell everyone how wonderful he is. Never have asked for a dime of his money or time (and after submitting over $1million in medical claims I need it) but we are told to make things pretty so cry babies can feel better.
This is the reason our kids are doing so badly in school - their parents are overprotective. Tough it out, learn from it, and move on. Making an observation about how someone was treated is not a bad thing and sometimes you need to air your feelings to see if maybe you were off based or right on target.
Nic once said something in an interview (and I'm not quoting here) when asked about fan sites he said he liked them because he could see what people are saying, good and bad, and that's why he didn't want to start his own - that would take the fun away of the honesty. So is that not true now? Have things changed to where Nic no longer wants honesty?
Now I could see refraining from talking about Alice if it would hurt her feelings, since she never asked to be put in that position. But to not say anything else about him personally, even things that are sexual but complimentary? Forget that.
He's a fabulously gifted actor and one of the hardest-working men in Hollywood... but DAMN he is fine as HELL, and I think it should be OK to openly appreciate that on any website or message board. Nic should be proud of that... it's partially genetics, but he also keeps himself in excellent shape (and enhancing his own natural sex appeal). Why shouldn't we, as fans, be able to express our admiration for that? LOL.

The two of you are absolutely right! No one is immune to being talked about good or bad! Unfortunately we all don't have the creature comfort of running to someone who can do anything about it! We just have to take it. BULLSHIT!
I found what Sinclaire was talking about too. I knew I seen it somewhere.
NICOLAS CAGE ON FAN SITES: June 14, 2002 - Live chat on AOL
AOL Host: Did you find it at all flattering or even disturbing that there are so many fans out there that have created sites that are tributes to you?
Nicolas Cage: I find it flattering. At one point there was a suggestion that I create my own site, that other actors were doing it, then you could have more control over it. I thought that that takes the fun out of it for people, and even for me. I'd rather hear what people really want to say or have to say, good or bad. Go ahead, go for it. You can create a site about me. And I think that some of them have been really wonderful, like the Original Nicolas Cage Society is one of the first. They're always really great. You know, I'm very happy that they have it, and I wouldn't want to take that away. I'd rather let them do the work.
Ella don't worry .... I also had a bad time full of many troubles last week , but we must say it's ok ... life isn't easy nowadays for anyone... believe me
