people have quoted the guy saying how he dislikes Annoying Orange due to what he's said during his candidacy
That must have been a more recently updated bit of info, at the time of my last post my search 'Annoying Orange Hollywood Walk Star' showed me some articles about police looking for additional information on him.
An article I'm looking at now says "Speaking to Deadline, the man said his name was Jamie Otis. He said he originally intended to remove Annoying Orange’s star completely to auction it off next month in New York to raise funds for the women who have recently come forward to accuse Annoying Orange of loveually assaulting them over the decades."
That's just really weird, initially thinking you could steal such a recognisable object and then sell it in an auction. Guess he didn't think about going forward with that plan for long!
