| Well I guess I just don't "know" him as well as some of the more "dedicated" fans, then.
Maybe it's because I haven't watched each and every interview he's done, and haven't hung on every last word he has said the past year and a half that I've been following his career. Maybe if I had met him in person 3, 4, 5 times like some on other forums have told stories of, I might "know" him better to earn the right to have an opinion.
Some fans are more dedicated than others, and I suppose I'm simply one that doesn't "know" him all that well.
And maybe that's a good thing, who knows? | |

| I think I used to, no wait, I couldn't tell you anything he really said in his interviews, because I don't remember them...
So, I guess I'm not a real fan...it's ok.
It will be interesting to see what happens, though. If T-Ger leaves or not. | |

| I follow him,from the film Dracula ... for years, I have read so many ... .. maybe too much ... her interviews were often repetitive. Perhaps that is why although, ever met personally face to face, something, my a little opinion on his modus operandi comes from...I mean,wow 9 years...how time passes! | |

| I certainly don't consider myself in the same league of dedicated as the majority. I've never met him, I've never spoke to him, and i certainly don't think I know him.
However, I do recall the Cameron Diaz /dog incident and how that got blown way out of proportion on one of the mothership boards. Also Gerry making several homosexual jokes, despite the fact that many in his circle are gay. I also recall a statement encouraging the women of Philly to make provocative statements to him. Combine that with a few ComicCon panels and you've something that says,"There's a side of Gerry that appreciates a little crass humor." It seems entirely plausible that TwitterGerry has the same sense of humor. If he were to wander on to this forum or any number of others, he'd probably find that we have a lot in common when it comes to a bit of crass humor. | |

| I have to give him this: Fake Gerry is more interesting than Real Hugh Jackman, regardless of whether his intentions are playful or something else. | |

What would that say about his fans? Do they REALLY know him? I don't think it's a case of "It can't be him because he's not charming enough or I don't like his threesome jokes" but more like "Oh look, one more fake celeb." Even real celebs are debating amongst themselves as to whether a person who tweeted them is real - all today I was watching two of them go back and forth with "Do you think it's really him? I think it's really him. Well, why don't you think it's really him?" | |

| Gerry or no Gerry - I am staying away from Twitter and sites like it. Anybody could be anybody.
OK I ADMIT IT - I AM THE FAKE GERRY! Geeesuz. Tough crowd.
No, I am not really - I was just saying that to make a point. Did it work? | |

Why close the thread? Why do you believe it's a fake? Because .net says so? I'm sorry to tell you that .net is not the last say in Gerry's life with regards to his fans. There have been many times that they have been wrong, just to hide things from fans until later on. The only reason I can tell you this is because I have worked behind the scenes with .net and GALS, and others... No, I don't know Gerry either... The only thing about this is that if we close it here, the discussion will take place elsewhere. | |

| But DK, do whatever you feel needs to be done...
If you feel we've beaten a dead horse, close it.
If we are waiting to see what happens, keep it open. | |

So if Gerry's real, he's boring?
If he's fake, he's not?
hmmm...that might disappoint a lot of fans, don't you think? | |

| I don't see any need to close the thread.
The jury still seems to be out on it. Besides, we've discussed other things besides "Gerry" regarding Twitter in this thread as well.
I find the entire thing fascinating, if nothing else. | |

hmmm...that might disappoint a lot of fans, don't you think? No, the more imagination that they put into this fake Gerry's image, the more I realize the social imagination is gone. In other words, people need to move on and/or tweet the real Gerry. Oh, wait what makes Gerry real? Maybe it is an imposer or maybe he is playing a practical joke? f**k THE MADNESS! I'm confused. lmao. | |

| Ok. I said I would stay away....but I have been reading. I am not signing up and I am not replying or "following" anyone.
But you all catch one of his last comments? Real/fake Gerry that is...
"Am contemplating accepting an offer to do a play on Broadway next year. It's alot of work and would take up alot of my time. Undecided.11:52 AM Apr 6th from web"
Could it be? The PHANTOM ROLE?!?!?!?!
DK - someone - try to get more info out of this one! THis may be the catalyst to see if this guy's for real. Even if he is........OMG the thought of Gerry on broadway.....I NEED to hear him SING More!!!
Must stay away from Twitter.....must stay away!! | |

| I think that could also be a good example of a good troll trying to get a reaction.
If Twitterhead Gerry is a fake, he/she knows enough about Butler and his fandom to play the part and poke the fans with a stick (post). Twitter G's posts re: exotic women and "multiples" were posted when the gossip sites and IMDB were all a-twitter with that latest gossip. It seemed like more stick poking to me. All it takes to pull off a good hoax is someone with half a brain, who pays attention to what goes on in Butlerworld, and time on their hands.
Fake Gerry sounds a lot like Diana/Nox to me.
I could be wrong, but never underestimate what motivated people can do.

| Interesting, D lady.
Please, fans...Phantom again? You want precious Gerry to play a part that put him into the depths of an abyss he really shouldn't be going to again?
Wow...
Ok, coming from a non Broadway person, does a Broadway play or performance always have to be a musical? | |

| Nope. It can be just a play, not a musical. There are both.
Edit to add: If anyone is interested in info on current Broadway and off-Broadway shows, go to: www.broadway.com | |

| I still think it's a fake but this has been a source of fun. Had it not been for TwitterGerry, I might never have stumbled onto TheRealMattDamon and Jason Statham. Now those two are entertaining! | |

| The reason why I said that this thread should be closed is because the thought of talking about Fake Gerry is quite boring. | |

| Well remi, if it's boring to you, I'm sure there are other more interesting threads on this forum to choose from. I don't close threads simply out of 'boredom'. Nay, I don't think you have to be a member to read the posts: http://www.twitter.com/gerry_butler BTW, Twitter Gerry posted about 10 or 11 last night my time. Now if we find out Gerry is still in Scotland, then that would mean "he" would have had to have been posting around 4-5am Scotland time. I find this highly unlikely. Even if he is up during those hours, I doubt he'd be Twittering random fans on the internet. | |
