Debbie "Call Me Deborah" Gibson apparently has so many fans all over the world that she can afford to get a restraining order taken out against the President of her fan club. Jordi Bassas Puigdollers is a Spanish taxi driver who has managed to earn enough driving a cab to attend every one of Debbie's shows since 2002. Good thing Debbie confines herself primarily to Atlantic City shows. Sucks for all of her fans that have to visit the hellhole that is known as Atlantic City, but easy for stalkers.
Look, I will be the first to say that stalker laws are on the books for a reason and I have seen someone very close to me get killed by a stalker. I love the stalker laws. I know that when the guy showed up at Debbie's house over the weekend and slipped a note under her door, it must have been a shock. She did the right thing by getting a restraining order. For some reason, probably because the guy gave an interview to the media, I find him more likable than your average everyday stalker. I think it is also because I was team Tiffany, and if you are a long time blog reader, then you know why. It is kind of like Coke/Pepsi and Burger King/McDonalds although In-N-Out rules.
In the interview he explained his actions. "I wanted to use the fan club to help people who can't go see her to get autographs and photos." I would say that he probably sells them on e-bay, but they probably would not go for much.
The restraining order keeps Jordi away from Debbie personally, but he can still go to any of her shows. He just has to make sure his seats are no closer than 90 feet from the stage. Hey, she still has to make a buck. He will be there as she takes the stage next month in Atlantic City. The homeless people should be out in full force on the boardwalk by then. Warm weather and tourists brings them out like nothing else.

What the hell is going on with her left eye? Is it just me or does it look unnaturally large compared to the right eye? I would never have guessed that was her in the picture.
ReplyDeleteI wanna know more about the Tiffany versus Debbie thing. (I was on Team Cyndi back in the day FWIW.)
ReplyDeleteim sorry about your friend El.
ReplyDeletestalking laws should be more strict and there def needs to be something for paparazzi too. anyone can get to celebs today and any nutjob just needs a camera to slip into that pack of hounds.
I, too, was on Team Tiffany. I was 10, so there's no accounting for taste at that age. I saw her live once at a county fairground, during July, at an open air arena. That poor girl, they worked her so hard and look where she is now.
