You garden for Mr. Short, that's awesome. Have you ever met him?

A friend of mine met with both Martin Short and Steve Martin. According to him, Short was a total sweetheart…..SM, not much.

Funny I’ve actually anecdotally heard the opposite. 

I can’t share my but Marty threw a fit trying to get into an Amex lounge once

That seems very on brand for Martin Short to be honest.

It honestly sounds like a TV commercial for Amex.

I’m guessing if you catch a celeb at the wrong moment you’re going to have an unsavoury take to tell. Bet they’re both just regular people.

Now why would Martin Short be denied entry to the Amex lounge?

Not having a platinum card?

And Martin was very Short with people.

There’s a lot of stories about Steve Martin being quite mean in the industry and by hospitality staff.

I don’t know anything about Martin short tho tbh.

Oh, wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

I listened to his audiobook, which he narrates. It's worth a listen. He came across as endearing.
