Sharapova unhappy with “nerd” image

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

In a story on the Reuter’s UK site, Maria Sharapova told the press that she is sorry that she ever told anyone about her stamp collecting. Her agent has directed her not to answer any more questions about the hobby for fear that it might give her a “geek” image. In the interest’s of keeping this site family-friendly, I will not express my opinion of this, but let’s just say that it is less than favorable. You can read the aforementioned article here.

    I do not think it will be much of a comfort to her and her bruised public image, but I think she is the prettiest stampcollector I know of :)
    And with regards to her musical taste - that could be a lot worse.

    In my opinion she should fire her agent and start looking for a new one at the philatelic sites!
    Come to think of it, what does she collect?? World Wide, Thematic, Single Country, …..??? When would she has the time for stamps?
    She could always hire me to look after her Stamp Collecting interests :-)
    Geeks!!! Hah, tell this to Roosevelt family.
