TwiCon: Just A Money Maker?

Posted by taylor blue on September 5, 2009 | 4 Comments

I have been wanting to go to a TwiCon for what seems like forever now. I would love to meet Kellan Lutz or Peter Facinelli probably the most out of everyone. But watching ‘a friend’ prepare to go it has me thinking.  My ‘friend’ IMed me earlier asking me what I would do. Would I go to the ball that costs $85 and you don’t get to see a cast member or a breakfast where you get two minutes with the celebrity and you get breakfast for $100.

I love that something like this was put together so that just normal fans would have a chance to meet the cast when probably in normal circumstances would never happen.

But the problem I have is that the prices. I can’t believe how overpriced everything is. So here’s what my friend has paid for so far; $40 for preferred seating in the Q&A, $20 for an autograph, $40 for a picture with the cast member. And then that doesn’t count the airfare and the hotel room.  And this is for only one of the cast members, so if I wanted that both with Kellan and Peter I would probably be poor.

Now these conventions are very popular and they sell out pretty fast. I just wonder why the prices are so high then? All I can think about is crazy amount of money that these people are making.  I wish it was more affordable for everyone. Everyone should be able to get this amazing experience.  Everyone.

Lindsay Lohan’s Leggings Are Out..WTF?

Posted by taylor blue on July 10, 2008 | No Comments

Lindsay Lohan’s leggings line 6126 is out and available at ShopIntuition. Now for a pair of leggings I find them crazy expensive. The ankle ones (or gloves) are $42. And then the other three range in price from $99 to $132. She even has snappy names like Mr. President Leggings. (I know the line was named after Marilyn Monroe but this is just crazy…) Someone is punking me right? Will someone PLEASE tell me that they are punking me?
