Steve Martin, a well known Hollywood actor, has successfully disappointed his audience with his new book named "An Object of Beauty" lecture. He said this all at an interview where he was the guest speaker to New York City's 92nd Street Y.
The audience were in fact expecting him to say something on his career life instead. His disappointing show had made a great of effect on the ticket sale. In total, $45000 was reimbursed to all the 900 attendees at that show. Y’s executive director Sol Adler later sent e mails to the ticket holders apologizing that, “They admit Steve did not meet his standards as he was meant to and you all anticipated at the 92nd St. Y.
The evening was surely a disappointing one and to compensate each of the attendees shall be receiving refundable $50 that could be used in the future 92Y event.”
Adler adds on to the New York Times that, “Steve Martin is not like this rather he is an inspiring speaker and people admired him.” Steve himself was not satisfied with the outcome of that evening either which turned him, Steve Martin, as just not funny people to some people.
