It's easy to be famous today. People pay a million dollars to be recognized, but nobody cares about them. They cared about me because I did things other men were afraid to do. That's why my fans identified with me. They were mostly working-class.

I don't get recognized much, and am very happy with that. The fans I have met have all been delightful.

I'm famous for being nicer to my fans than anyone on the face of the Earth because I figure a) They pay my salary, and b) It's probably like a big moment in your life to meet somebody so I would say, just come on up.

Nobody cares about your autograph. There are cameras everywhere, and there are media outlets for them to 'file their story'.

I arrived in Hollywood and lived much of my life in America, but the fans did not really know me.

I'm not a movie star. People know me, but they don't necessarily know what they know me for. I get recognised, but it's not like Justin Bieber. It's a nice thing, people are cool.

But one thing that's constant is we've always appreciated fans. They put us on the map and they keep us on the map. I always put myself in their position. If I loved someone and had their posters all over my wall and met them and they were rude it would be very hurtful.

People care about my fame, not me. But that's fine. I have my own life.

I want the public to know that it will be an honor for me to meet them and spend a few special moments with all those who helped me through my filmed career.
