Later on, when I signed with Sony, we wanted to re-release ‘Fade’ as ‘Faded’ with a brand new mix and with vocals by Iselin Solheim.

Every musician in the known universe has signed a bad piece of paper, myself included. But it’s really very simple. You’re the artist. It’s your picture that’s going on the CD cover, nobody else’s. Protect yourself. Get a good lawyer. You’ll kick yourself later if you don’t.
I remember Yash Chopra ji had called me for a narration.

I was thin and didn’t realize how small I was – I was, like, 96 pounds when I got signed. You don’t want to be 96 pounds. It’s not attractive. I didn’t know how to do my hair and makeup. I was such a tomboy.

That Stash Kobe 1, that is probably my number 1 shoe I have ever worn on the court. To wear it against Kobe in his last game against the Suns it was real fun, and for him to say something to me about them it is crazy. He is signed them up for me and personalized it. It was pretty dope.

When I was signed to Quincy Jones before I went independent, he told me to rap what you know, and people will forever feel you. And I stuck to that, no matter how many people called me a devil worshiper, no matter how many people call me a cult leader. I stuck with rapping about what I know.

I’ve forgotten what it feels like to be in one place for more than a day… But we signed up for this. This is our dream. We sat down and said this is what we want to do, play music and touring.

A lot of people think I was an overnight success, but I was an opening act for three or four years, and then I signed my contract with EMI. Then it kind of blew up overnight.
Once we got signed, I moved out of my house because I was having teenage issues with my mom. It really wasn’t my fault, looking back. You know, I’m gay; it’s weird. It was one of the things. She has no problem with me being gay, but she had a problem with me dressing the way I do at first.
My dad was a real working musician in the late ’70s and early ’80s. He had a band that was signed to Elektra/Asylum and they would perform at like Madame Wong’s and Whiskey A Go Go all the time.

We were all ruled by the studio system. I signed a contract for seven years.

My mom is very excited for the fact that I got signed and, of course, being a mom, she’s going to be a little worried.
I think I might have played a song on piano or guitar in a school talent show. I went to an all girls school, so there were always little things going on, but it wasn’t really until I was 17 that I did a proper performance. My first big one was Glastonbury, before I was signed.

We were signed to a label that wanted us to remain little girls who appealed to other little girls, who were cute and non-threatening.
I felt very strongly about the Ashley Madison thing. Of the 39 million people who signed up for Ashley Madison, only a tiny percentage of them actually had an affair. And I’d go a step further and say even if they did, it’s none of our business, frankly.
The business was in a very difficult state when I first took over the company. I walked into a situation where cheques were getting written, popped in drawers, so that when people phoned up, they could honestly say, ‘Look, we’ve signed the cheque. You’ll get it ultimately.’

You only trust those who are absolutely like yourself, those who have signed a pledge of allegiance to this particular identity.

In the year after we signed with I.R.S. we made a record, started our own tour, toured with the Police, and our record went to No. 1. It was insane.

When I signed with Scooter Braun and I decided to go overseas to promote my song, the only concern was how should I communicate with the public and the audience with my language.

I’ve just signed a contract to make records in Nashville. It won’t amount to much at first, but after a year or so, I will really be in the money.

From the time I signed on to ‘The Following,’ things have already vastly changed in the entertainment world in general. It’s an adjustment for me.

We had a showing of Battlestar in LA last week. I walked out the door and there were 50 people. I signed a ton of autographs. Other actors walked away without signing. These are the fans. I guess it depends. on who you are.
Then all this started to pick up because I signed with ForeFront when I was in seventh grade. It got a lot busier and I was traveling a lot and it wasn’t making sense. Especially at a private school, you miss two days, and you get so behind.
It was funny because on the day that I joined the club, the newspaper that broke the news was one that people don’t always trust or believe. Then, when I signed, and there were pictures of me and Sir Alex Ferguson, people believed it.

I’m in Ring of Honor about four years.

People have said it’s hypocritical for me to call myself a feminist and make the kind of music we are making, because we signed to a major in the U.K., and that system objectifies women. Or people have complained that I don’t dance. But I like the idea that I can stomp around the stage if I want.
I had a ten-piece band when I was 21 years old, the Bruce Springsteen Band. This is just a slightly expanded version of a band I had before I ever signed a record contract. We had singers and horns.

So anything to do with education or learning, my father would spare no expense.

Signing to a major, there weren’t many bands from our sphere that were doing it.

Those four bands were pretty much the only ones from that milieu that had signed to a major.
I thought I was signed up to be on ‘Heroes.’ It turns out I signed up to be on ‘Survivor.’

The first bill that President Obama signed into law was the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. I think it says something about his priorities that the first bill he put his name on has my name on it too. As he said that day with me by his side, ‘Making our economy work means making sure it works for everyone.’
I feel like I’ve done Pete Hornberger, and that is a painting I have signed, and I don’t need to play that character anymore. So I’ll get offers for panicky, pathetic guys, and while it’s a great compliment to get them, I feel like I don’t need to play that again.

I signed ‘Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon’ only for a year. But the producer requested me to stay on, as the show had just started to make money.

Having signed a few autographs in my time, I always wonder what the heck people do with them.

I signed up to be a musician, I want to perform, I want to sing.

An Isaac Mizrahi fashion-show ticket signed by Steven Meisel. I rushed up to Meisel at the end of the show and asked him to autograph the card that had his name and seating assignment on it. It was an incredible moment when he shot the autumn/winter 2014 Moschino campaign.

Honestly, I was a troublemaker. The environment I grew up in, my mom and my sister, they decided they were going to sign me up in every single thing to keep me busy. I played football, basketball, baseball. Anything, whatever was in season, I was signed up for it. Basketball was one of the things that just stuck.
I did my part. I signed it for UFC 205 in New York. I signed my part, and Julianna turned it down. She didn’t want to fight that time, but I don’t care about this because I am a fighter, and if she don’t want fight, we was looking for another opponent to make fight.

I am not immune to the lure of a signed record, flier or set list. The fact that your music heroes potentially had, in their own hands, the record you now have in yours is kind of cool. When the musician has departed, it can give the thing a unique power.
Elvis walked over and signed a few autographs over the fence. They were screaming. I had never seen this.

In 1950, when the Giants signed me, they gave me $15,000. I bought a 1950 Mercury. I couldn’t drive, but I had it in the parking lot there, and everybody that could drive would drive the car. So it was like a community thing.

I think shortly after I got signed, it just started to dawn on me that I had something to say and that Yahweh put something in my heart to share with the world.

I can confirm that Poland should become a eurozone country, and not just because of the treaties that have been signed, but because I consider it of strategic interest both for Poland and the E.U.
When I signed up for Y&R, my actor friends said, ‘A daytime soap? It’ll kill your career!’ Now they’d trade places with me in a heartbeat.
It’s tricky because obviously when you join a new club, from the very first day, everyone looks at you and tries to see if you are good enough. That’s more or less what you have to go through. Then the other thing is that when I signed for West Ham nobody told me I was going to be number one.
I had my very first match against NXT Women’s Champion Sasha Banks three weeks after I signed. I’m quite proud of that, but I can’t explain how nervous I was.

My dad’s father would take me to WWE shows when I was younger, and my other grandfather, my mom’s dad, would watch wrestling with me at the house. They just really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, they both passed away before I signed with WWE.
When I first started out in Telugu cinema, I signed anything and everything that came my way. I was 18, was immature, and it felt like a good idea that ‘Oh, they are paying me a good amount of money.’ I was young, naive; I had zero ambition, and honestly, it wasn’t my calling.

I think certainly after every show I headline, I will be available to the fans. When I’m headlining a show, I don’t walk off stage. I’ll walk to the front of the stage and sign hats and shirts and tickets for 15 to 30 minutes, until everyone has everything signed.
I met Harry Thomason when I signed on with 20th Century Fox in 1985.

I signed to Def Jam and within two months, I heard that Ja Rule was looking for someone to do a song with.
I always thought when I was 22 something bomb was gonna happen, then when I was 22, System started blowing up in like ’96. Not blowing up really, but I started putting it into fruition. ’96 is when people started noticing us, then ’97 was when we got signed.
I worked in investment banking for two years. I was in a program where they kind of just owned you. And you – I didn’t realize that I’ve signed up for that, which was one of the problems. I didn’t know anybody who’d done this.

When I left ‘The Garry Moore Show,’ I signed a 10-year contract with CBS.
I try to satisfy the desires that people have to have their books personalized. That’s a value, or feature, of bibliophilia that may vanish. How do you get your e-book signed? The idea of people standing in line to get my signature in their book, it’s hard to turn them away.
Giggsy, as soon as I came into the Wales set-up, had ambitions for me. The way he brought me and a lot of other youngsters through has been amazing. He spoke to me when I first signed for United. His advice was to be myself, which is what I will try to do.
Just because I have signed a contract doesn’t mean that he or she has bought me from head to toe.

I’m a good old Yorkshire girl in that I don’t like to talk about things that are on tick. As my nana always said, ‘Until you’ve bought it, it’s not yours,’ so until it’s signed on the dotted line, I don’t like to talk about it.
We have this historic problem that we have a quarter of our population, the people of Quebec, who have never signed on to the Constitution. That can’t go on forever.

Just a couple of minutes ago, I signed a couple of bowling pins for some people. That’s a normal thing. Somebody will hand me something and say, ‘Draw a picture! Draw the Dude!’ They’re probably selling them on eBay or something.
I was talking to Coach Wooden after I had signed at UCLA and over the summer, and we used to talk all the time. The thing is, talking to Bill Walton, once you throw in your two cents, he throws in the other 98 cents. He will not stop talking, I’ll tell you what.

I signed with Columbia for two reasons. One reason I saw two of Frank Capra s pictures in Paris, and I want to work with him. Then at Columbia, in Harry Cohn, there is only one judge to please. I could not face the juries of fourteen that I have heard about at so many large studios.
The bad press came because they thought I should fight more. I couldn’t get the fights because if I would sign to fight one of King’s guys I would be signed to him. I chose not to do that. In hindsight, that might have been a mistake.

I’ve signed a few autographs.

My A&R at Epic got fired the first week I got signed.

I told everyone through high school and junior High I guarantee by time 24, I’ll be signed with WWE, and that’s exactly what happened. I didn’t go on to main even WrestleMania obviously, but the whole WWE accomplishment was checked off, and I got to experience that and it’s cool.

The only thing you are really here to do is play football. So when you get a chance to go to the draft, and that part is over with, and you get signed on to a team, and you’re ready to go, now it’s back to everything you’ve been doing to get to this point, and that’s play football.
I trialled at Brentford in two games. I scored and assisted one. They said I was good and they’d keep an eye on me. I went to AFC Wimbledon but went back to Mitcham and signed my contract because they refused to pay my 7 registration fee.
I think I have already signed some scrap of paper for every man, woman, and child in the United States. What do they do with all those scraps of paper with my signature on it?

I started full-time training when I was 10, signed professionally when I was 14, and won my first match at the same age.

We didn’t tell anyone we had gotten signed, because people can freak out a little. But we started working with writers.

I put a song on Soundcloud, and Annie Mac made it record of the week, and a month later, I signed my record deal.

I would never do something like Speed 2 again. If I’d wanted to make those kind of movies I could have signed up for five of them while it was in the can. It wasn’t worth it to me. That was just an innocuous, boring movie.
I’m signed to a U.S. label, and I didn’t enjoy the 3 A.M. phone calls. I’m not a great sleeper, so I didn’t enjoy being woken up.

I’ve done some really weird gigs. The ones where no one turned up – they’re probably not the interesting ones to talk about. I played some pretty random ones in L.A. I signed to play all-R&B nights or an all-comedy night where I’d be the only white person there. They were fun.
I didn’t want to be a solo Westlife – covers and ballads – and the reason I signed with Capitol Records was because they wanted me to write songs myself. It was pretty scary, but they put me in a studio in Nashville with some new songwriters, and the results were pretty good.

When I signed my contract to be in ‘Grease 2,’ my agent said, ‘Well, she’s going to have a number.’ So I did! They wrote me a number where I was teaching Maxwell Caulfield how to be cool. It was called ‘Cool Rider.’ And it ain’t in the movie.
We’d just signed with Arista, the record company. Arista was freaking about the phenomenon of tapers showing up at our shows. They were insisting that we put an end to this. And we just didn’t want to do that.
My theology, briefly, is that the universe was dictated but not signed.

I signed up for eHarmony once, and it took three hours to fill out that online form – so many personal questions.

When I signed for Real Madrid, it was like a dream.

We’ve been lucky. Even as a young, local-level band, we were able to rise out of the local scene without having any debt, without having signed the wrong deal with the wrong manager or the wrong booker or a small label.
I am delighted to have signed for Manchester United, one of the most famous clubs in the world.
I have some special things at home, but not too many. I’ve got two shirts framed – that’s all – my first Premiership final with Saracens and my first England cap. They’re not signed by anyone; they’re not even washed. They stink!
Sammy Sosa? Everybody knew who Sammy was, paid attention to Sammy. I had already signed in pro ball when he had the great homer year with Mark McGwire in ’98. But I followed it, and I was proud of him because he was my countryman. There are a lot of great ballplayers from the Dominican, and he’s one of the best.
Now I think a lot of wrestlers want to get signed so that way they can be with a company where they can learn, but they’re really kind of looking for a contract, and I do think that makes sense.

I counterfeited Mark Kostabi’s artworks. During the eighties, Mark didn’t paint his own paintings. Instead, he had other artists painting them, and he just added his signature. So what I did was to use some of the same painters, and signed his name myself.
I never really thought about becoming the all-time top goalscorer. Because when I first signed for West Ham, I was just trying to get a game.
I was actually signed at a very young age – I was 12 – and one thing led to another, and I ended up in a mutual split from the label.
