** FILE ** This is Jan. 11, 2008, file photo of former member of the Beatles, Ringo Starr in Liverpool, England . Ringo Starr doesn't want to hear from you. If you do write, your letter will end up in the trash. That's the message from Richard Starkey, aka Ringo Starr. After 45 years of stardom, he doesn't want to spend any more time answering mail or sending signed photos back to fans. The fan fatigue led the former Beatles drummer to post a sometimes angry sounding short video clip on his Web site telling fans that any mail sent to him after Oct. 20 will not be read or answered. British television stations broadcast the video on Tuesday Oct. 14, 2008. (AP Photo/Jon Super, file)
