No autographs, Ringo’s too busy

Former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr has told fans to stop sending letters and requests for autographs, saying such mail will be thrown away after next week because he is too busy.

Starr, 68, made the announcement in a video message titled “Sorry, No More Signing Stuff” posted on his official website, www.ringostarr .com.

Wearing sunglasses and flashing a peace sign, he says: “I want to tell you after the 20th of October please do not send fan mail to any address you have. Nothing will be signed after the 20th of October. If that is the date on the envelope, it’s gonna be tossed.

“I’m warning you with peace and love I have too much to do.”
