(HoundsTV) If you happened to walk through Toronto’s Eaton Centre shopping mall today and wondered what the MASSIVE line was for? It was for Canadian crooner Michael Buble. Over 1,000 mostly young fans turned out to meet Buble and get his new record, Crazy Love signed.
Who knew so many teenage girls were into Frank Sinatra and Ray Charles covers?
Buble seemed generally surprised at the huge turnout of fans but promised to get threw and greet each and every one. He even mentioned how Garth Brooks once stayed 23 hours at a signing appearance to meet all the people. It didn’t take quite that long for Buble to meet everybody on a busy Thanksgiving holiday weekend in Toronto, but even moving very briskly Michael did have to stay for over three hours.
UPDATE: A glance at some of the internet chatter from a few of those 1,000 people who attended the Buble signing at Eaton Centre reveal some very unhappy customers. HoundsTV discovered many comments in fan forums questioning the rushed nature of the Buble signing event.
“So its our turn. I say hi to michael, he doesnt reply. I go to give him 2 copies of my cd to sign. The security guy says only one per person and you cant get it personalized. I said well one if for my daughter. Michael snatches it out of my hand and signs it. He didnt speak, or smile or nothing. signed and thats it. so while my friend was getting hers signed i went to snap a picture (which turned out beautifully) and was grabbed by security to move. ” – FAN ON board.michaelbuble.com

I was at the Eaton Center yesterday. It was a long line but Michael was nice and smiled for me and my friends camera. Michael looked sooo hot!!!
I was there at 530am waiting for Michael, I was very disappointed. We were just pushed through like cattle. Most people didn’t show up until after 11, us early birds got screwed. It would of been nice to have 10 seconds, instead I had less than 1.
omg it was so amazing to meet him! he was soo sweet!! he told me he loved me and thanked me for buying his album and coming out to support him! plus i got a huge smile!it was the greatest day EVER!!!!:D
