Fake Stevie Facebook page

Hello all. There is someone pretending to be Stevie Nicks on facebook. Big Surprise...but they are chatting with people and saying things that are totally misrepresenting Miss Nicks...and sadly...these poeple believe it is her. We all know that Stevie doesn't even use computers much less Facebook and posting YouTube videos ALL DAY LONG. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/0..._n_185077.html

Please take a moment to report this person...http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/...00002717525201
You don't even have to be friends, just click on their profile, then go to the bottom left and click report person. It will give you an option to report them as pretending to be the celebrity....

Thanks!

I guess some of us old fashioned folks are not hip with the new fangled electronics gadgets.Of course I got email.But do have a Trac phone for emergency only.I'm not oue to yap on a cell phone for hours on end.She uses a boombox.I still use mine.It has cassette only.I do have ton of others with cd in the basement since I repair electronic equipment.I dont know why people come up with these fake accounts.

People come up with these fake accounts because their lives are empty and need to compensate by trying to live through celebrities. "Hey, I'm Jane Doe. No one pays me any attention...but they sure will when they think I'm Stevie Nicks!"

Whoever did this needs to get their facts straight, as well. Singer and Songwriter in Fleetwood Mac from 1967 - Present? Not even a convincing imposter!

Yes... and apparently she speaks fluent spanish and has relatives we have never even heard of before....not to mention a bad speller...

Your guess on motive is as good as mine, but there is definitely a level of boredom and "lack of social life" involved, I'm sure. Though I suppose, in some small way, it's rather flattering. You know you've hit the big time when people are pretending to be you on the internet. Not that I'm condoning it. But nobody mimics Martin from the Chip Shop, or Alice from the Launderette. Though personally I'd enjoy reading the Twitter of fat old lecherous Barry from the Brewery.

reported.......and wow...some people need to get a life!

I always wondered why Stevie fans feel it's their job to police the internet?:sorry:

I wonder if Karen knows about this and get it pulled off.Wow .whoever already racked up (2773) friends.Book Archaeology,Oceanography.Hum.

Anyone seen the documentary Catfish? It's not what the trailer makes it out to be (scary and suspenseful), but is an interesting look into the lives of very bored people with internet access. :laugh:

Same reason Stevie fans think it's their job to promote Stevie's albums by calling radio stations to request songs, writing angry emails to harsh reviewers, buying multiple album copies, etc. Simple love of/devotion to the artist. :shrug:
