TEN Gossip

I Finally Have Peter Facinelli’s Autograph!

Posted by taylor blue on August 1, 2009 | No Comments

Look what came to my mailbox the other day…my two autographed pictures of Peter Facinelli! One of them is to Taylor and the other one is in my real name.  I am so happy to see them! They are courtesy @vampirefreak101 who went to see him and Alex Meraz at the London Film and Comic Con on July 19, 2009.

In the spirit of TEN Gossip I asked her to answer ten questions for me. Katie is quite active at going places to meet the cast. Yes, I’m quite jealous of her. Here are her answers to my questions.

1. How many cast members have you met? 9 in total, so far! I’m now determined to meet or at least see, all of them, at conventions, on set, premieres or gigs. I’m keeping a diary of my progress. It’s become a mission.

(Peter Facinelli (Carlisle Cullen) twice, Kellan Lutz (Emmett Cullen), Ashley Greene (Alice Cullen), Kristen Stewart (Bella Swan), Charlie Bewley (Demetri Volturi), Jamie Campbell-Bower (Caius Volturi), Alex Meraz (werewolf Paul), Justin Chon (Eric Yorkie) twice, Christian Serratos (Angela Webber).)

I have also met New Moon director Chris Weitz, in Italy. and although I wasn’t lucky enough to meet them, i have seen Robert Pattinson (Edward Cullen), Dakota Fanning (Jane Volturi) and Daniel Cudmore, (Felix Volturi) from 5 metres away.

My next convention is Eternal Twilight 2, in October, when I will meet Edi Gathegi (Laurent), Billy Burke (Charlie Swan) and Gil Birmingham(Billy Black), and I will be going to the New Moon premiere in London in November where I hope to see most of the cast.

2. How many Twi-conventions have you been to? Only one, Eternal Twilight, in February. London Film and Comic Con is a general Film convention, not a Twi convention, but i think we Twilighters pretty much took over ha ha.

3. What is the furthest you’ve traveled to meet one of them? So far, Italy, for the filming of New Moon but I’m planning to go to Vancouver, for the filming of Eclipse, in September.

4. Your favorite experience and with whom? My ‘guest encounter’ with Peter Facinelli at the Eternal Twilight
convention in Northampton, England, in February. Basically, there’s an auction, and the top 10 bidders get to spend 1 hour in a room chatting with Peter. The best hour of my life!

5. If you could meet any cast member again who would it be? Peter of course, I want to meet him as many times as possible. Also Kristen, as I only got to speak to her for a few seconds, I would love to be able to chat to her for longer.

6. Where is the location you would love to go to meet them? This is probably going to sound strange, but I would love to meet Peter s family, so at their house? or somewhere in Los Angeles, where they hang out together as a family. His wife Jennie Garth and his children seem so nice. Peter and Jennie are so much in love, it’s so cute.

7. What was the experience that went along with the picture you got for me. The crew write names on sticky notes on each item(So she had two pictures for me and two sticky notes). And I then walk up to the table where Peter is, his assistant takes the items from me, whilst he finishes talking and signing with the person before me. I just stand there and stare at him. His assistant passes a photo to him (for Taylor) and he says ‘good name’ and signs it. (You can see the picture of him signing my picture in the first thumbnail, I think that’s awesome that Katie took a picture of it for me!)

8. What is your favorite part of a Twi Convention. Surprising its not meeting the cast, its being able to chat about Twilight with other fans, and not being told to change the subject!

9. How overwhelming was it to be in the midst of all the twilight fever? very. it’s crazy most of the time, but it’s great that it has such a loyal fanbase that brings people together, and I’ve made some life long friends because of it.

10. If you could be cast as a character who would you like to be? The obvious answer is Bella or Esme right? Actually, I’d love to be Alice, because to see the future and therefore possibly being able to change it, would be the greatest ability I wish I could have.

Below are the pictures from Katie’s personal photo album from the event. Please don’t steal the pictures. The link to her album is here. The last thumbnail is of Katie and Peter in the picture they had taken together, yes, again I am jealous. Thanks again Katie for these pictures, I will cherish them forever!

Comic Con Has NEVER looked SO GOOD!

Posted by WillowRaine on July 24, 2009 | No Comments

I’ve never been to Comic Con, and you know, although I love comics, I have never regretted that decision, until I saw these pictures of Kellan Lutz. Now, as a result I sit here, kicking myself in the behind for not going, and drooling over pics, when I totes could have been drooling over him in person.
In my mind, had I gotten to meet him, in a perfect world, my conversation with him would go something like this:
Willow: Hey, Kellan,my name is Willow. It’s so nice to finally meet you.
Kellan: Likewise *he says as he flashes that brilliant grin* Been to Comic Con before?
Willow:Never. This is my first time. I came here,just to meet you.
Kellan: Oh yeah? Bless your heart. You should let me show you around, after I’m done here. Come with me. *Then he takes my hand, and I tag along after him, all of the fan girls screaming in jealousy,but I don’t hear them, I’m too busy staring at him in awe*

In reality, it would go something like this:
Kellan:Hey!
Willow:I um..I.. *horrible British accent* ‘Ello Sue! I’ve got Legs!
Kellan:*Makes the most adorable but confused face ever* What sweetie?
Willow: I like grapes. You got a purty mouth.
He laughs, signs an autograph for me, and then I move along.

Especially with him looking like THAT, *Points to the picture at the top of this post* there is no way I could keep my wits about me. For Heavens sake. Bless my heart for being an idiot, Bless his for being so damn good lookin’.
Although, I do have this to say, if he’s reading it (since I hear he likes handcuffs) I do have a pair, they’re purple, chinese silk, they won’t leave marks, and I’m not afraid to use them. Just sayin’.
Though, with my love for Jackson Rathbone I doubt I could, so I’ll lend them to my girl, JoJo and she can take care of you, Kel. Satisfaction guaranteed.

Jared Padalecki showed up at the New York Comic Con on Saturday for the panel of Friday the 13th. It comes out on Friday in theaters. Also catch him today on the Bonnie  Hunt Show. She was hilarious yesterday. I can’t figure out why I haven’t watched her before now!

And yes, I am in a deep depression since Supernatural isn’t on until March. I hope March comes quickly.
