A Big Regret Of Tom Selleck Continues to Haunt Him To This Day...... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Tom Selleck is haunted by a "Magnum, P.I." poster he still wishes he hadn't agreed to be photographed for because it's the one fans seem to want signed more than any other.

The ageing hunk admits he was reluctant to pose for the Hawaiian hammock-themed shoot but signed on to be "a nice guy."

And he's regretted his decision ever since.

He explains, "They put me in a hammock between two palm trees and I had on a purple Hawaiian shirt... and they gave me one of those pineapples that are cut off with a big straw and an umbrella.

"I said, 'I don't wanna do this', and they said, 'Oh, come on, just be a good sport.' Now, everywhere I go, that poster comes up or that picture comes up and I have to sign it."

Hmm, I don't get it. It's a good picture of him, not disrespectful in any way. I don't see any reason for regret.

I agree. I don't see what he has to whine about. One of these days he'll wish they would ask him to sign it.

I like it, but I can see Tom's point of view. I'm sure he felt dorky doing it. Luv ya, Tom!

He stressed purple shirt and a fancy drink. Yeah, he's having gay guys come up and ask to sign that poster. He was just being nice and not mentioning that part.

Another celebrity had the same experience. Did a harmless pic and regretted it forever after because gay guys kept asking him to sign it. Made him really uncomfortable.
