He's also very disconnected from how he looks. I honestly have no idea how anyone could fall for something like this, and general gullibility is probably involved partly, but you've really got to think the sun shines out of your ass to be so arrogant that you're not even surprised when you're told an A-list celebrity thinks you're attractive, even more so when you're a deformed janitor with a pedo beard. I mean, male models would be surprised to find out someone like Katy Perry was into them, but not our Russ. How delusional can one man be to look in a mirror, see a face like that, and honestly think anyone, let alone someone as famous as her, could want him?It also shows the depth of his mental illness and retardism. He is that disconnected from reality that he has not a grain of self-awareness that this was all a troll.
Very true. Like how he demanded that Taylor go on a date with him wearing a red dress with her hair braided and play footsie with him under the table or he would sue her for $100,000,000. How entitled do you have to be to make such a specific demand of the woman you're trying to win over? When he imagined getting an all-expenses paid trip to meet her and take her out to dinner, he probably imagined exactly that. And since he put in the effort by writing a song for her, in his mind he's now owed exactly that in return. In fact, I'm of the opinion that he doesn't even like Taylor as a person. He only chose to write a song for her because she's the most famous woman he can think of, and she's conventionality attractive, and everyone will envy him if he has her on his arm. That's why in his book he writes about how she'll just fall for the first guy to say "I'm an actor, date me" and all of his fantasies either involve her crying or him rescuing her in some way. He imagines her as incredibly simple and easy to impress, with no real personality assigned to her aside from praising him. He doesn't respect her at all as a person and only sees her as a hot woman to fuck and a way to make himself famous and envied. Since she's the most famous woman he can think of, and she's hot, he picked her and expected she'd just do everything his fantasies demanded. And he thinks he's owed it all since he is, in his own words, "the greatest guy ever."Thinking he's got a sure thing is a running theme with Russ. In his book, he had this elaborate fantasy about what would happen when Taylor got his song. He thought it was just a matter of time. Whenever he does anything, he's convinced it will succeed despite all evidence to the contrary. Then when it inevitably blows up because it's either unrealistic or poorly planned, he goes ballistic because he's been thwarted. It's never him or his plans that are at fault, it's always someone else who ruined everything. Agents, bias judges, aliens from Zeta Reticuli, it doesn't matter, it's never ever because Russ is delusional and lets his fantasies ruin his life. I think this is what caused the Erika situation. Pretty girl talks to him and expresses an interest in being friends (just friends, she was clear about that), and Russ starts planning the honeymoon. Then when she got uncomfortable and tried to set some boundaries, Russ, as always got mad she wasn't following the script he'd written for her and started stalking her. Previously, his inability to distinguish fantasy from reality just resulted in him making an utter fool of himself and ruining his career prospects. Now he's at risk of having a criminal record (yeah, I know he technically has one now, but if he somehow goes a year without breaking the agreement, it gets dismissed, so that's why I put it like that), and since he can never, ever let anything go and admit defeat, I think he'll fuck something up and end up not getting a slap on the wrist.
