Twilight Premier/Red Carpet Event, Hollywood..details!Posted by Jo-Anne on the September 15th, 2008Hi everyone, As some of you have emailed me lately, you probably wondered why I haven’t posted anything about the red carpet event even if the news came out last week. Well.. to tell you honestly, I didn’t think I would be able to go for 2 reasons.. First, a friend of mine offered me the chance of a lifetime.. a ticket to the red carpet event, with afterparty access. I was jumping up and down when she called. And as predicted, the ticket cost is the same as a Louis Vuitton Monogram Vernis Alma MM (lol.. google the price so you’ll have an idea how much it is).. So, with that in mind, I was gonna wait and see when the event will take place so I can have someone else help with the meet up since I promised a bunch of you that we’ll all be together at the premier.. Then, fate got in the way.. I got into a car accident a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, I’m ok, I didn’t get hurt, and my car (both cars actually) didn’t even have a scratch on it.. but the lady that I got into the accident with is 5 months pregnant.. so let’s just say I got into major doo-doo at home. The insurance is still processing the claims and all that… but since I got into trouble, let’s just say “I got grounded”, which meant, no premier tickets! (yah that hit me hard!) As of today, we don’t know if we have to pay for anything especially since the lady is getting all these medical checkups etc and probably thinking of whatever else she can claim, but we got assurance from our agent that everything’s ok and they’re processing everything… So after a lot of begging (and plenty of pleases), I was able to get the ok to attend, BUT, on the outside, along with everyone else. So, the plans are still in full effect =) If you folks haven’t heard yet, the red carpet premier will be held on Monday, November 17 at Grauman’s Chinese Theater 6925 Hollywood Blvd, Hollywood CA. The event time is still TBA, but it is assumed that the celebs will arrive between 5 pm - 6:30 pm. There will be 2 meet-ups, one on Sunday November 16 between 8:30 pm - 9:00 pm at the theater. We won’t know if there will be a camp out, so many of us will drop by to see if there are “campers” setting up already. If that’s the case, then we will also camp out. I already made hotel reservations which is 3 blocks from the theater, so we can swing by anytime to check the crowd. The second meet-up is at 8 am on Monday Nov 17 (THE day). For sure, there’s gonna be a lot of people by then, but I will probably be at the site much, much earlier (if in case the LAPD and theater folks kick us out and can’t camp out the night before). I’ll have more details on the meet-up in the coming weeks. If any of you plan to come along, please email me at jo-anne@robert-pattinson.net so I’ll have an idea on how many will come along. Please specify on the “subject” line that you’re from RPW, as some of the other girls coming along are from Everglow. So check back for new updates. I’m still working on some details with the t-shirts that we’ll wear that day… I’ll have more on that on my next update. Take care y’all! |
I Got A Signed Photo From Rob ^_^Posted by Jo-Anne on the August 20th, 2008Wow! Ok, first of all, let me tell you folks how I got this photo… The whole weekend after comic con, I was on the internet reading everything about the event and all of Rob’s interviews. It so happened that he mentioned on his MTV interview that he would like to come to a comic convention possibly dressed up as Charlie Chaplin or Spiderman (he has this thing for spandex.. hmmm). So that Monday, I went to buy a black Spiderman costume and sent to him. I doubt he’ll wear it, but I thought I’d send him a laugh after the shock we inflicted on the cast from 6500 fans screaming and messed up the panel (we could barely hear what Rob says because everytime he tries to speak, people would scream). I had a feeling they totally freaked out after that. And I also wrote him a letter, nothing mushy mushy, just showed my support and asked him to keep dazzling his fans.. he he =) So, after weeks of anticipation… my eyes bulged when our receptionist came in my office and handed me the envelope that I’ve been waiting for. I tore that thing apart and drooled at this: Now I gotta go get a nice frame and it’ll be the highlight on my desk… Thanks Rob! We Love yah! Cyah at the world premier!! ^_^ BTW… I did mention this site on my letter… so I’m betting he’ll be peeking in here from time to time! Totally a happy camper, |
Now that Comic Con is long gone…Posted by Jo-Anne on the August 5th, 2008Wow, it got quiet all of a sudden. I’m sure it’s because of Breaking Dawn. You guys still crying upon reading the dreaded words “The End”? Well don’t fret peeps, we still have about 4, possibly 5, films. So there’s plenty to look forward to. For now, let’s satisfy our Spunk cravings with youtube videos and some of his new pictures popping up like mushrooms all over the ‘net (mmmm I love his gravy shirt!) So what’s up on our Rob agenda? Wellllllll, the movie premier of course! Inside news told me that our yummy-licious Rob won’t be in Rhode Island for the “How To Be” film fest (he’s “supposedly” filming - don’t know ‘what’ though), so I didn’t bother booking a flight. I’ll stash my cash for the much anticipated Twilight premier, knowing that the tickets would probably cost more than a much wanted - authentic- Louis Vuitton purse. Uggh! Just today I received 3 emails, all asking about the premier.. even though it’s like not gonna happen for another 4 months. But still, knowing that there’s fans out there getting hyped about camping out… again.. haha! Well we’re not really sure if there’s a camp out, but we will definitely be there, rain or shine, right in front of the barricade! I’ll be emailing those that wants to come along, and a couple of new peeps that weren’t with us at Comic Con, but will join us at the premier (Viki and Phuong - hello *waves* (= Welcome to RPW ..) So til then ladies.. Tah tah!

Are you Emerson???Posted by Jo-Anne on the July 26th, 2008I promised Alicia that I would write this blog in honor of the camp out… We were having dinner (Pizza!) in line in front of Hall H when we noticed that there’s this guy wearing a Mugglenet t-shirt. So we were all wondering who it was. Then someone asked me, I think it was Leslie, who the webmaster is for the Mugglenet site, so I said it’s Emerson. Then we all looked at the guy to see if it was him. Then Alicia stood up and went up to the group and bravely asked “Excuse me, are you Emerson?”. The group burst out laughing. It turned out to be Andrew, who is also with the Mugglenet team. I believe Emerson is from Chicago or somewhere around there. Anyway, after a few minutes, we all joined the group, which consisted of Andrew, Melissa (Leaky Cauldron) and some of their friends. They were really really nice, humble folks. I was lucky enough to get interviews and a few pics and they even signed my comic con scrapbook (which I’m about to put together) After chatting with them, it became a joke around our group that “Are You Emerson??” would be the quote of the night, and I told her that I’ll make sure to write about that. Alicia was one brave girl, not just that time, but also at Hard Rock Hotel when we were waiting for the cast. She was the one with enough guts to call out to Stephenie when they were walking at the lobby. Stephenie looked around to see who called out, smiled at us and waved. So to Alicia… you go girl! Thanks for the good time, and hope to talk to you again. Interview with Melissa: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKY4OGklE7Y I have a couple more interviews with Andrew and another long interview with Melissa, but for some reason youtube keeps rejecting it. I will keep trying to upload them and update it here. |
