veasse Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 cool thread! At London Film and Comic con 1 i went to see John Rhys Davies with my friends and we gave him an award (tree award saying award for the sorest knees - since he had to kneel for the part of gimli a lot of the time) he was so charming and funny i said "oh John you are so funny marry me" he remarked "cant you find someone your own age" I spoke to him at the party on sat and i felt so bad lots of people were asking for pictures when it specifically said no pics! i mean one or two yes but i waited till number 15 had stopped and then had a chat and he said he found it quite amusing although at the time he didnt seem amused, so i was quite relieved. um.... i have loads... not CM tho... I gave Joe Hahn from Linkin Park a frog in a nice box (not a real frog) and he didnt open it at the time. then when i met him again i said did you like your frog and he said that was you? i said yes and he said of course he liked it he likes frogs... so i said see i'm not a freak! he said yes you are... and so i said my work here is done and moved on to Brad! lol plenty more i could write a book about my celeb meetings.

kiaora Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I told Bernard Hill about the *cough* disagreement I (and a few others although I can't remember their names- sorry) had with the manager in Pizza Hut. He told me that Pizza Express is 10 times better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperFerret Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I was scribbling on the whiteboard and singing to myself, and someone tapped me on the shoulder and gave me a huge smile and said "hey, how's it going?" And I was like "uhh, pretty good thanks, how about you?" And the guy said "yeah, fantastic! Erm...*taps board* That's me..." Christian Bloomin' Simpson. *dies* I was like "ohhh...erm, hi..." He asked me where he was supposed to be sitting, so I pointed it out and offered to walk him there, and he was just like "noo, don't be silly, take care sweetie". He was lovely. Not a clue who he was, but he was lovely all the same I hugged him! I hugged him! I hugged him! I hugged him! I hugged him! I hugged him! He's all warm and squidgey! Love him! Aaaaaaaaaaah, Christian......... I stalked him too........ He didn't realise! Got to meet him three times also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueyedevil Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 not too bad, but still kinda embarresing. When i got to James, the first thing he said to me i didn't hear properly (was in my own world of 'o wow i'm meeting james, cool!') so the first thing i said to him was..."huh?" not my best moment i have to say.

Dum dumdum Dum Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Kat - that coffee/tea thingy was hilarious but the guest really was cool about it!!!!!! Jodie - I love the Jamie thang. Mine had to be a lack of sleep (or at least that was my excuse) - Ray decided to take a break and I saw him get cornered by a group of fans as he left the area. I went to see that he was ok and of course he was. Once they had left I said "would you like me to escort you to the green room". DUH I mean yeah sure Mr. black belt in everything would like a female to "protect" him!!!!!!! He did have the sense to smile and we giggled about it but still - talk about a complete braindead moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobbitslut Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hmmm I guess I have some stuff. Last weekend when I went to meet Christian Coulson I just stood there gawping. He kept tryin to make conversation but I felt tooo shy. I did however make up for it by going back a further two times!! When I met Viggo at ROTK premiere he was writing me an autograph and I managed to forget my name. Erm.......bit random but when I was little I met a newsround reader, think her name was Juliette Morris (?) and she asked me if I watched news round. To which my reply was 'no I watch ITV.'

Corsi Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Taken into account that (a) I am a very shy person and ( I have never met a TV star before CM7, there were surprisingly few truly embarrassing moments. (Nevertheless, in order to have more fun with the guests at LFCC3 I will certainly do more "preparation" for my small talks... ) --- (Pre-story: I asked Bamber to dedicate one of my four autographs to my friend René. He asked me to spell it. I said "R E N E... and, you know, an accent aigu." As he speaks French, he understood immediately and added the ´ over the e.) When I asked Sackhoff to do the same, it seemed like she did not know what I meant. So Bamber - who was sitting at the table next to hers - bent over (?) and added the ´with her pen. Being in a casual mood, I "advised" her to take lessons from Bamber. "No, no, I do speak French!" --> As it turned out, she just could not hear what I said... --- Awww, Sackhoff was such a gorgeous lady and I said something so stupid.

bell123321 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I dont really have anything embrassing which i can remember what has happened. Tho at c6 when i met devon i gave him a bday card and for some reason when my friend wanted a picture of her taken with him, my hands couldn't stop shacking and you could see they were shaking!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinababy Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I haven't got an embarrassing moment with a celeb, although on Sunday, Corin Nemic did see me eyeing up his chewy bananas while I was queing for Tony Head! We shared a smile after that!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a clue who he was, but he was lovely all the same I passed him outside talking on his mobile and didn't recognize him at first ... nor did anyone else judging by the fact he was completely alone! I was waiting to get some pics of Dr Who stars and there was this old fat bloke hugging a dalek and I was thinking 'hurry up and get out the way so I can take some decent pics' and then he went and sat down in Colin Baker's place. How pissed-off am I?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorch Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Heh, where do I start? There was the thing with my uncle Bob, who actually turned out not to be my uncle Bob and was in fact Leslie Schofield. It wouldn't have been so bad if he hadn't insisted on telling pretty much everyone around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suz_queen Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I found that when I said to Sean Astin 'how are you doing?' he didn't reply either... I thought maybe he hadn't heard or he was one of those ppl who can't sign and speak at the same time, but perhaps he was really fed up with everyone asking?? i felt a lil embarrassed too, my next intelligent speech was 'You're here early today.' My friend was in the queue just ahead of me and I think she had a scuffle with her boyfriend over the camera...she called him 'dumbass' and Sean looked up heheheh. I didn't recognise Colin Baker either... was next in the queue for Sylvester McCoy when this white haired man walked in front of me and slapped him gently on the cheek. only twigged when Sylvester said "Hello Colin, are you signing as well?' durr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfdreamer Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 As this was my first ever convention, I think I got away lightly with no major embarrasseing moments. I did go mute when I met JRD though. He smiled at me when my boyfriend asked for an autograph and I just couldn't speak!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v83 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Well i said the most stupidly obvious thing to James Marsters! I said: I really liked you in Angel and Buffy!!! How stupid was that!

pengylegs Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Hmm.. countless embarrassing moments. When I was meeting Sean Astin I got an attack of the clammy hands, and horror of horrors-- he reached out to shake my hand while talking to me. For a few seconds he was just holding his hand out there, & conflicting signals from my brain caused me to do nothing. Nada. He looked a little confused, so I just came out with it- "sorry I can't shake your hand, my hands are clammy" The stewardy lady sitting by him was nice about it, and Sean looked amusedly taken aback and said "So what!? My feet are sweating! Just shake my hand!" I limply touched his hand a bit, so he made me shake properly... I hate having clammy hands of death, and he really reassured me. What a legend Later on though, I gave Tony Head a clammy hand sandwich and then I bolted while he was trying to talk to me Am I the only one???
