Rick did a great AMA four years ago. A redditor asked him "Will you ever give me up?" and he said "Go fuck yourself." https://www.reddit.com/r/Music/comments/56

Rick did a great AMA four years ago. A redditor asked him "Will you ever give me up?" and he said "Go fuck yourself." https://www.reddit.com/r/Music/comments/56cdgm/ama_im_really_rick_astley_i_swear_and_to/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Music/comments/56cdgm/ama_im_really... He seems like a neat person. His success is well-deserved.

The commenter first said to Rick Astley “tell me to go fuck yourself” and then edited his comment.

  Is that true? The comment is edited, but according to this (https://www.reddit.com/r/Music/comments/56cdgm/ama_im_really_rick_astley_i_swear_and_to/d8ihhyb/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Music/comments/56cdgm/ama_im_really...) OP edited their comment to thank someone for gold and grandstand, so presumably they edited it back. You could be right, I've just never heard that.

    Im going from memory (yes, I’m on reddit too much). I think Rick explained it in a later AMA.

      I remember the same story.

      Yep, can confirm.

  Probably happens a lot. I can tell you that I "won" a KFOG call-in contest, where I almost had all the answers right, and they told me what to say to get them all. Then they edited out their prompt.

The highlight of Rick Astley on reddit was when he got rickrolled. https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/haucpf/ive_found_a_few_funny_memories_during_lockdown/fv505w1?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/haucpf/ive_found_a_fe...

  In the same thread, another user points out that the Time magazine wrote a piece on Astley getting rickrolled on reddit: https://archive.is/YH6tf https://archive.is/YH6tf

From that same reddit: > Really Rick Astley: "I'm rereading the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy AS WE SPEAK." ... Ok, from now on I won't complain anymore if someone rickrolls me.
