What Has He Done To Deserve This?
Filed under: Old People > Z List
Looks like someone's career is in the crapper!
Henry "The Fonz" Winkler is the keynote speaker for the upcoming South Carolina Realtors Conference.
We have nothing against South Carolina or realtors, but ouch!
Hope the Fonz is making a load of money off the S.C. gig!
But, really, what does Henry Winkler have to do with realtors????

It's like Wilford Brimley doing "diabeetis" commercials.
haha first!
ALL HAIL the GREAT FONZARELLI!
He's the shit.
Even the Fonz agrees that BUSH is a war mongering lying hypocritical killer who should be put to trial for war crimes against humanity. IMPEACH!
IMPEACH!
IMPEACH!
Now!
That is all.
Re: kiounne – "diabeetis" LMAO!
come on, perez… who WOULDN'T want to go to charleston, sc, period?!
more than you have to do with hollywood I'm sure
I LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM! FOR REALS! HE MAY NOT HAVE 'STARRED' IN MANY MOVIES, BUT HE ALWAYS PICKS THE PERFECT ROLES! yOU CAN JUST TELL HE'S A GREAT GUY!!
For serious, you don't know how lucrative speaking gigs can be?
I mean, Henry Winkler is in a good economic place in his career. He still gets the occasional good acting job (like on Arrested Development) but doesn't have to work anymore.
Speaking engagements are like a license to print money. He'll probably get tens of thousands of dollars for a single speaking engagement, and only has to do a couple hours work, if that.
Bill Clinton does it for hundreds of thousands.
It's not as if Henry Winkler's career is in the crapper. He probably just wants to be home with his family more often.
poor Fonzi
You know he's making a buttload of money off of this gig. He's gotta be!!!!
No better way to get the babyboomers to buy houses than to hire the Fonz!
It's brilliant! and WHO FUCKING CAReS!!!!!!
Henry Winkler = Barry Zuckerkorn in Arrested Development.
Barry Zuckerkorn = lawyer for Bluth Company.
Bluth Company = made and sold homes.
Selling homes = Realtor.
Me = genius.
I'm a Realtor in Memphis & I wish he would come here to speak. I have no idea what he has to do with real estate, but the Fonz rocks!!!
yeh, well it sucks here in sc
SONJA…. TOO FUNNY!!!
Perez, You're an Idiot! Henry makes good money as a MOTIVATIONAL speaker these days. I've seen him twice; most recently at a convention in Boston in April. He was great. The crowds love him. You can really be an ass sometimes!
You are seriously f ing crazy Pervez , Do you think celeb's are only interested in performing they also invest you idiot this has to be on the top ten of your lamest remarks yet your site is so pathetic that you stoop to this shit you call this gossip?Your site is a pathetic joke. oh now this is news! PATHETIC.
Re: TNREA – LoL small world, I'm in memphis as well!
South Carolina realtors are not like other realtors. They're actually a little better than other realtors. (I'm surprised you didn't know that.)
THIS IS LIKE YOU SELLING A CLOTHES LINE AND MAKING APEARENCES AND YOU ARE A NOBODY. aT LEAST HE IS SOMEBODY.
Charleston ROCKS!
well Perez we can ask the same thing about you and clothing. But, really, what does Perez Hilton have to do with clothing????
"I am excited by the prospect of Obama being the first black man in the White House and the next President of America"…Amen to dat! I wish I could be a fly on the wall and see all the white ppl faces when they announce it. HAHAHAHAHA
He's probably a motivational speaker. I'm sure the realtors are needing some motivation about now. I think I once saw a website that lists speakers for hire and some are celebrities.
Leave Henry alone, he is a class act! You could never live up to his standards. He is a wonderful person and a role model!Ayeeee!!
Why don't you a little homework and find out WHY Henry Winkler has been hired to speak? Meh.
OUCH! "Filed under old people and Z-List." Shame. shame Mario. Henry Wrinkler is one of the coolest actors ever!
I live in charleston, SC area.. you should totally come here for something lol
Re: puto – well the bitch can barely fit in them, I hope he lost the weight, the 4 of july is next week and I advise everyone to stay away from the beach cause that bitch is going topless on the beach…
Hey Perez, Corporate gigs like that really pay well.
also, corporate gigs like that are the bread and butter of tons of stand up, they make more money doing those than doing reg gigs and the can practise new material
Shows a bit how you are out of touch with the scene, Perez.
nothing to do with real estate- he is speaking on "overcoming obstacles"- remember he is dyslexic and overcame it to earn a masters degree- not to mention the dozen plus book he co-authored. so that is why he is speaking there.
Nothing perez. You'll be in the same spot 20 years from now, old and starving for any type of recognition. Go Hollywood!
oh it gets better he's playing captain hook in this years xmas pantomime at milton keynes (UK) theatre!!!
Re: SonJa – That WAS genius!!
well,you really are a horse,s ass! don,t slander henry winkler,just because no ones sent you enough dirt on other people today!
What do YOU have to do with the stars? You trot your fat ass around trying to get your 1 second in the lime light and then talk shit about others??
He doesn't have to know anything about real estate silly! He is there as a motivational speaker. He will probably talk about the things he overcame in life…I think he suffered from dyslexia, etc. From there he'll talk about Happy Days, Night Shift (hilarious movie), starting a family and now writing children's books. He is cool…lay off! Aaaaayyy!!
Giving back to the community is important… for everyone
Henry Winkler was also a guest speaker at an educational conference thing out in Vancouver. I was invited to participate as a Discovery Toys vendor but the prices were RIDICULOUS!
Re: Ak803 – Hot as a mutha fucka here!
That's no place for a nice Jewish boychick like Winkler. Although I have a pal who's moving to that State this week.
"But, really, what does Henry Winkler have to do with realtors????"
He's the fonz. That should be good enough reason for anyone.
Perez…you must be jealous (I am!).
Winkler has more money then you know! Besides the acting gigs, he's produced many successful TV series, films and mini-series. The Fonz is not (thankfully) in need of money. But…speaking gigs are very lucrative. He is probably getting $50,000 for what amounts to a day out of his life.
Not a bad (acting) gig if you can get it.
i think he finally jumped the shark.
wait a minute…………..
The Fonz was a speaker at the CHA (Craft & Hobby Assoc) tradeshow a few years back. I got my pic with him.
A lot of people were wondering why he was there. Vanna White was too but she was the spokesperson for yarn.
HENRY WINKLER WENT TO YALE!!!!! He spoke at my cousin's graduation and he's a GREATTTTT SPEAKER!!!
Do anything to get out of the house
YAY for South Carolina! I live in Charleston…please come here!
I coulda swore he had died a couple years ago.. shows how much hes been working.
What has he done to deserve your criticism?
Henry is one of the true great….people that have graced the industry and STAYED grounded thorough all of it.
Any industry, real estate included, has its ups and downs and staying grounded is important.
Plus, he's written 15 childrens books (Hank Zipzer) and he's also dyslexic. Henry lifts people up, when life always seems to want to tear you down.
Henry Winkler forever!

Born and raised in Myrtle Beach, SC! 2 hours from historical Charleston. Live in icky San Francisco now. Henry Winkler is a great motivational speaker and the real estate in SC is marvelous.
And besides….I guess you don't watch Family Guy Perez? Duh….Hank had it out with the Fonz ……for bringing hollywood types into the beautiful lush undisturbed, unmolested mountains….and ruining the vibe….eck….it was a totally real estate episode….
STICK TO BEING MEAN TO LITTLE GIRLS YOU FAT BASTARD.
HENRY WINKLER IS THE NICEST PERSON IN SHOW BUSINESS!!
OH DEAR.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop showing how ridiculously stupid you are.
Mr. Winkler has more than 70 acting credits on imdb….and that doesn't include his multiple appearance (i.e., 255 appearances on Happy Days), 35 producing credits (again, doesn't include the multiples), 10 directing and more than 100 appearances as himself.
You, Mr. wannabe actor have how many?
Give it up you idiot.
I think I'm done with your site. And, for the advertisers……NOBODY LOOKS AT THE ADVERTISEMENTS……..
NOBODY
JUST A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL YOUR 15 MINUTES ARE DONE ONCE THE SUITS REALIZE THE ARE GETTING ZEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRROOOOOOOO RETURN FOR THEIR MONEY.
Fat Nipple, about as much as you do with clothes jackass
Fonz rules…so what he is making his $$$$$$.
Lame perez…I gave you the scoop on him 6/11/08 - he is going to be keynote speaker at a private school in tyler, tx. all saints episcopal school
Fonz is the man, get off his back!!
He was also the key note speaker at a teacher's profession development last month in Vancouver BC. He spoke on the disability he has…not quite sure…maybe MS?
You really are a asshole. He is a great man and a great speaker. This was a low blow for no reason other than the fact that you have nothing else to report on. Your a fat fuck
He's 'da Fonz…so chill, Perez!!
In August when he gets his bronze statue dedicated in downtown Milwaukee. Now that's cool.
he's also playing captain hook in panto in my hometown of milton keynes in little old england - i'm sure none of you have heard of it lol
Chucktown ROCKS…will be even cooler when the Fonz lands!
He is apparently a phenomenal motivational speaker - his connection to realtor's is beyond me, but, I do know that he is also speaking at an event in Ontario, Canada with regards to learning disabilities.
He has worked and lived for years with an LD and apparently does a great job as a keynote speaker, motivating others, etc…
Yeah…he's coming to the Syracuse Hot Rod Nationals as well. Hope he's not broke, he's a nice guy.
Believe it or not…"The Fonz" came and spoke at the elementary school that I teach at!! I guess he writes childrens books or something….kinda sad! That's where his career has led!!
I live in Milwaukee (where "Happy Days" was set) and next month they are unveiling a "Bronze Fonz" statue on our Riverwalk and the whole cast is going to be here. Well except Scott Baio who said he was "too busy now that he has a kid". What a chotch.

I met him at a car show a few months ago and he was way rude and acted like he hated being there. I hope he's broke.
Re: matt – GOOD ONE! (Why didn't I think of that?)
Henry Winkler is the owner of many commercial buildings in Los Angeles. He was the owner of my building when I was an agent. Do some research before you start typing or just Shut the Fuck Up! If you can't take the time to investigate a story why do you publish it. Go and Fuck yourself! Didn't you also post that Castro was Dead, There was a rolled up bill in Heaths apartment that had drug residue on it, that the Olsen girl sent over her team to clean the place of drugs before the police came? Come on Asshole do the job right or don't do it at all.
WOOOOOO- Loved The Fonz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But, really, what does Henry Winkler have to do with realtors????
:)-
DUH … HIS CAREER BOUGHT THE FARM !!!
Gina [8] says - …..YOU CAN JUST TELL HE'S A GREAT GUY!!
:)-
YOU BETTER GIVE YOUR GLASSES A WIPE, GINA, BECAUSE HENRY WINKLER IS NOT A GREAT GUY. HE'S A PERV. HE WAS MOLESTING ERIN MORAN ON THE SET OF HAPPY DAYS. HE'S A TOTAL CREEP.

Hey Perez! I have been looking at and promoting your site from the get go. I lived in FL for 13 years and moved to SC a month ago. Besides crying and being in a depression from the culture shock, I have been trying to adapt to this new life. Now you have to go and bring up the lameness of SC. Your site was getting me thru but now its broken my heart. Make fun of this all you want. I am hanging by a string.
Re: kasey – Thank you if you r not bein sarcastic. Bout to kill myself from the move to SC. Wouldnt really do it but the change is killing me. TRhanks for the shout out. Adjusting as we speak. Its been a month here in SC from running 2 buznesses for 5 years in FL
I LOVE PEREZHILTON READERS. YOU R GREAT. LOVE THE SC SUPPORTORS!
if the asshole who hosts this site and the morons that love him thought thru their hate, they might take a broader look at winklers life beyond happy days.
winkler is a successful actor, yes, producer, yes, and investor in real estate.
he is a thoughtful and accomplished businessman with varied interests, and he won't be an "ed mcmahon".
i guess since he's not a cock chasing, grossly overweight, cunty queen, perez can't see winklers life experience as a terrific success story.
oh well.
Re: Katie – youre an elementary school teacher and you think that writing children's books is sad? maybe you shouldnt be working with kids then if anything having to do with them is pathetic. plus a lot of famous people write childrens books, so do your research.
he also spoke at TCNJ's senior week, a celebration for graduation. seriously, we didnt want the fonz there, hes not very inspirational.
Perez Hilton,
is my favorite celebrity.
He is very funny,
and has an awesome website!
i love his clothing line also(:
Dont hate Perez Hiltonnn.
Cause he rocks!
And about this thingg,
i dont really get it,lol
XD
Realtor conventions get good speakers, Perez. We pay top dollar. At our national convention in New Orleans we had Bill Clinton and Bush 41. Hey Perez, until the day comes that you take and pass any test that rewards you with a license to practice anything, shut your condescending pie hole. It always drips from your droll posts.
More than you'll ever have….the man is so doing what he wants to do…he has directed more movies than you have even seen…buttwipe…did you ever think that some people do things just for the reason???
You do have to do some research to be reliable. The Fonz owns millions of dollars in L.A. real estate and has since his fonzie days. He is a shrewd investor.
ERIN MORAN (JOANIE) SAID THAT WHEN SHE WAS 10 FONZIE TONGUE KISSED HER AND FELT HER UP AND TRIED TO GET HER TO FUCK SO HE IS ONE SICK BASTARD.
…hes not doing it for the money, the winkler family are filthy rich.
I'm from SC. We love the Fonz. That's all that needs to be said.
My guess would be that Henry OWNS HIS OWN HOME, unlike PEREZ who lives in his mothers basement, next to the water heater. I can almost hear her yelling down to him "Perez my little he-she if you don't stop doing that you are going to go blind" and I hear him yelling back "I know momma, but I plan to stop when I need glasses"?
I'm a realtor in SC. I may have to go down to see the Fonz. Also chick from Flordia….SC is not lame…maybe you just live in a lame area. Sorry you are not enjoying our nice weather, low taxes/home owners insurance, and low cost of living. All of which you won't find in Flordia other than the weather!!
"The Fonz" is appearing at the Syracuse Nationals Auto Show at the Fairgrounds….They're using an old photo of him as the fonz..
He no longer looks like that!……using an old photo is like reading an Obituary. I guess he's a motivational speaker. I wouldn't go across the street to see "the Fonz".
That photo is from the archives, m'kay?
Re: Dusty – Thank you Dusty. I needed that. Yes, it is better here. Just needed to hear it from others. We are hardly on the map in the media but this one blog post has made it that much better. Thank you.
Henry Winkler is a fine motivational speaker. I had the opportunity to hear him at the National FFA Convention in Indianapololois this past October. He Connected with an entire collusioum of kids who did't even know who the "Fonz" was. He was very good-nothing like i would have expected.
My friend was giving her name to the hostess at a restaurant in NYC and the Fonz walked in, cut in front of my friend and started talking over him! My friend was like, "Sorry I was just. . ." Finz cut him off, put his finger in my friend's face and said, "Quiet, I am speaking".
D*ck
your career until a few years ago included serving people coffe..dont diss classics on career choices..Look at you..You still think you are hot..
MYRTLE BEACH, SC !!!!!!!!!!
hes soooo great. he spoke at my graduation a couple years ago. he is very inspiring and a great public speaker. & totally funny
Yea!!! Come to Chas. I Live Here!!! Yea!!!
