Wow first post.

Ok so I was REALLY close to meeting Fergie but then the body guards were like "No more people" I was ok with that...

And I met the guy who sings that song and its like "I'm a believer" and it is in Shrek. :lol: His name is Mickey Dolandz (sp?) I didn't even know who he was until he started singing that song...
Ya it was pretty cool...

I wish I could meet any Twilight person or Chris Brown...

I have been fortunate enough to meet Amy Lee, Terry Balsamo, Tim McCord, and John LeCompt from Evanescence (the only member I didn't meet was Rocky). It was AWESOME and they were all so nice. I only really had time to tell them I loved their music, and thank them for their autographs, but they were really nice and appreciative!

I've also been fortunate enough to meet Stephenie Meyer. It was fantastic! She went to a signing/Q&A in my area when Eclipse came out and she was phenomenal! During the Q&A I found out that she and I have the same favorite Muse song (which is also my cellphone ringtone) and, when she was signing my book, we were talking about it and I learned that she used to have the same ringtone on her cellphone :lol: I've never changed it since and I consider it my "Stephenie Ringtone" XD And, of course, I told her how much I love her books and she was very kind and gracious!

And, finally, I have met the one and only Robert Pattinson during the Hot Topic tour. My GOODNESS. He is beyond gorgeous in person... no photos or video can do that man justice! And he was very nice and very funny! I wore a "Team Jacob" shirt to be different from everyone else and, when he saw it, he went "Psssh!" and started waving me on like he wasn't going to sign my poster because I was Team Jacob. It was so funny and we both laughed. I let him know how much we appreciated him coming out to meet us and told him that I hope he gets a break (which, he says, he never gets :lol:).

I've been very fortunate with my celebrity-meeting experiences and hope to meet other actors/authors/musicians that I admire!

I was about, two feet away from touching Gabe Saporta (lead singer of Cobra Starship), before he walked away, back onto stage after the concert ended.

But I got to meet Pat Brown, the lead singer of Sing It Loud (an opening band for Cobra Starship), and he almost broke my cd trying to sign the insert. He was really cool.

I actually saw Paula Abdul in person once when I was like 9. Not only her, but a lot of American Idol contestants during the season of Carrie Underwood. My family was staying at this really first-class hotel at the time in Hollywood, and I guess a lot of the contestants were staying at the same hotel. It was really cool! I didn't get Paula Abdul's autograph, but I actually got Jennifer Hudson's and Diana DeGarmo's autograph!

Love,

Oh Yeah! If Fall Out Boy, the biggest punk rock band on Earth, belongs to this "Celebrity-title-thing," I would say, yeah I met Fall Out Boy. It was their concert here in the Philippines and the next day, they have this autograph/photo-op thing and I was lucky to meet them. What's the good thing about that, is that only 200 people will be allowed to line up for the autograph thing and I was in the NUMBER 5 of that 200.(Thousands of people were there to show up) Well, I got to talk to them, took pictures, had their signatures on my CD layout and it was COOL. and it was a FACE-to-FACE encounter. I even posted some pictures on my friendster account. It was Cool really :)

I don't mean to nitpick. But Fall out boy isn't punk rock ;)

I met Frank lero from My Chemical Romance. Him and his hardcore band leathermouth were opening for Reggie and the full effect/mc chris. I was getting an autograph from James Dewees (Reggie) and I asked him about his involvement in MCR (he is their keyboard player) and how well he gets along with them, he then pointed out Frank who was getting out of his bus, and I wanted to freak out haha. I got to talk to him for a sec before a mob of girls swarmed him:(

2004 I met Hugh Jackman when i was studying Screen Directing at Curtin University, turned out he
was a graduate from Western Australia's Performing Arts (WAPA).
It's cliche to say, but he really is humble and easy to talk to.
