    Default Tim McGraw Ring and Touching No No

    Ok - while on vacation last week my sister read to me a story from the newspaper and I had to come home and search for it myself on youtube to see it.

    Tim was being kind while performing and was trying to shake hands with all the fans when someone stole his ring.

    And then, judging by the same outfit - as Tim toured the crowd again trying to shake hands - he got grabbed square in the balls. Um hello, have we no respect for anyone, not even themself? (1) its just inappropriate & rude (2) the balls the fan was grabbing already belong to someone else and (3) how low is your self esteem to have to get attention by doing this? OY. Anyhow - here in this clip - Faith scolds the fan while never missing a beat with her song and dance << thats what I found so funny. Please note how Tim just steps back and lets her handle it.

    What on earth is wrong with some people out there? They're human beings like us and NO if I were male, I wouldnt find it attractive, flattering nor sexy if someone stranger who just paid X amount of $ to come see me and grabbed my balls. OY!!

    Your thoughts on this?

    My thoughts?? Well, its not ok to grab anyone's balls. Good for faith for not cursing and throwing a fit. She scolded and moved on.

    I thought it was kind of funny when she was trying to think of something to say besides balls.

    If that person grabbed someone else's balls on the street, they'd be up for a sex assault charge, if the victim wanted charges. I'm wondering why this "lady" would think it any different doing it to a star? I'm glad she got told off (in public!!) - probably the last time she'll be thinking of doing that again. Some people really have no class unfortunately and this is one example of that.

    Can't say I wouldn't love to grab his balls, but #1, he's married and #2, I have more upbringing than that! As for the ring, the one girl was waving it around telling him she had it, but he was too busy chewing that other girl out to see it. I hope he apologized to her.

    A lot of people nowadays seem to think that they can do whatever they want to performers. There have been a lot of rock concerts where the fans throw heavy items at the band, and actually end up hurting them. I've heard stories of performers refusing to perform when the throwing starts - good for them. There was even one story where a fan grabbed a guitar while it was being played! The band threatened to stop the concert unless it was returned, and it was. Unbelievable.

    Funny story: A good friend of mine had this tiny little queen mama -- one of those five foot women who can take on the universe if she sets her mind to it, and still have supper on the table when her husband comes home at 6. Anyway, she and her young niece were walking down the streets in Quebec when this pervert comes out of no where and grabs the little girl's behind.

    My friend's mother saw what happened, turned around and grabbed the guy by the gonads... and refused to let go! She held onto him while he cried and begged her to let go, and he was in so much pain he couldn't do anything about it. She wouldn't let go until the cops came and arrested him.

    So in situations like that, I can see it as justifiable -- and funny!

    Just saw this clip- how hilarious that Faith berates anyone for having "no class", especially after making a total jerk of herself by yelling and hissing at the camera when Carrie Underwood won female vocalist of the year at the Country Music Awards!!People need to keep their hands to themselves, and it's disgusting to think that a fan would grab a performers jewels.(In both ways)Now dear old Elvis(The Pelvis)would have shimmied those hips and GIVEN the gal a gold ring- or a Cadallic. Rock on Elvis!!!!
