Richard and I, went to Costco, donning our SAG-AFTRA on-strike t-shirts. Little did we know that this ordinary shopping excursion would turn into an unexpectedly heartwarming display of recognition and support from the public.
As accomplished figures in the music and TV industries, we've been fortunate to be recognized for our contributions to entertainment. However, what unfolded during our Costco visit was truly remarkable. Shoppers and fans immediately recognized us and approached us with admiration and gratitude for our work. It was a humbling experience as we realized our profound impact on people's lives through our art.
What made this encounter even more special was the overwhelming support we received for our involvement in the SAG-AFTRA strike. Shoppers expressed their solidarity with the cause, applauding us for taking a stand to improve the working conditions and rights of actors and performers in the industry. The unexpected outpouring of support served as a reminder that, beyond the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, there is a real and caring audience that appreciates the artists' dedication and commitment to meaningful change.
This seemingly ordinary shopping trip became a powerful testament to the influence of our work in entertainment and our dedication to advocating for a better future for all artists. It was a heartwarming reminder that even in the aisles of a Costco, the power of art and the support of the public can come together to create moments of connection and inspiration.
