Kristen Bell filming When in Rome

Here are some pictures and a very short video from the set of Kristen Bell's new movie, When in Rome from today, April 25th. They filmed in front of the Guggenheim Museum. Apparently Kristen does not like to take pictures with fans because when I asked what seemed to be her assistant (woman next to her in the video) if we could she said, "Well she doesn't really like that and she's not feeling very well." Could've been true, but Kristen looked rather cheerful and friendly. I guess I asked at a bad time.

New York, I Love You

The day before my birthday, April 17th, my friends & I got the chance to meet and take pictures with Andy Garcia & Hayden Christensen while they were filming their new movie New York, I Love You! We also got to see Rachel Bilson for a few seconds but the paparazzi kind of ran at her & startled her so she stayed inside for the rest of the time I was there...so I couldn't even get a picture of or with her. Damon Dash also popped up out of nowhere & took some pictures for the paparazzi, with fans, and Hayden. Both Andy & Hayden were gentlemen. Hayden even recorded a belated birthday message on this girl's cellphone for her sister. It was pretty cute. This was the best pre-birthday...ever.

chasing Orlando Bloom...literally

Here are some pictures from yesterday, April 16th, of Orlando Bloom on Bleeker Street in Manhattan taken by my friend & me. He was shooting scenes for his upcoming movie New York, I Love You. He's gorgeous in person & very friendly. When I asked him if I could take a picture with him, he kindly turned to me and said that the time "wasn't ideal." He had a swarm of paparazzi and squealing girls chasing after him, so I didn't take it personally.









Here we are with a member of the crew...I can't really remember what exactly it was that he was doing, but he's awesome.

Just so everyone knows...

All of the pictures on this blog are mine and taken with my own camera.
I've noticed someone on IMDb using 3 of my pictures claiming them as her own as well as rewording my accounts to her own description. If you are reading this blog and want to use a picture please link it back to me.

AMY ADAMS!

Yesterday, April 10, 2008, I got the pleasure of meeting Amy Adams in SoHo! If I were to write down the whole story as to how I got there & what events occurred I'd take more than a half hour but here are some of the most important things.
My friend & I arrived in Soho asking everyone and anyone what time Julie & Julia was going to be filming. There were signs and lights everywhere but no cameras. After more than an hour, we came across a trailer with the name Julie Powell on it. I knew that was Amy's character's name so we waited in front of it for about another hour hoping to catch a glimpse of her & maybe get a quick picture. The truck drivers & crew members we started talking to said how nice Amy was & that she'd take a picture with us no doubt. When her assistant came & brought her 2 dogs into the trailer we knew she was on her way.
When she finally arrived she walked by so quickly that we couldn't even ask her for a picture. I instantly noticed her new hair do & she greeted us with a smile. After about another half hour she finally came out of her trailer for a dress rehearsal. We tried to approach her but she was talking on her cell phone & this mean man was trying to keep us away from her (he wasn't her bodyguard ... we actually met her bodyguard & he was really nice).
She continued walking down the block so we decided to follow her because we wanted to see her in action practicing some scenes. When this one guy walked onto the set by mistake & asked her who Amy Adams was she jokingly replied she didn't know but then later revealed her true identity :) Surprisingly, not many people even knew who she was and when they finally did realize who my friend & I were talking about, they knew her as the sister from the Wedding Date rather than for her roles in Enchanted or Junebug.
Once she finished what she was doing about 20 minutes later we realized she was going back to her trailer. We followed her, another female who I'm guessing is also an assistant, & the mean guy down the block. I ran across the street to get to her & asked politely if my friend & I could take a picture with her. She said it was alright & the mean guy who tried to stop me from even getting to her took it for us. She is really friendly & pretty in person & I'm so extremely happy I was able to meet her! Waiting for 5 hours was well worth it.
Many, many thanks to Stephany (www.amyadamsblog.blogspot.com) for the location info.




BTW -- she's wearing a wig

Ashanti & James Blunt

Some pictures from after their TRL appearances on 9/18/07. They were both very nice and greeted the paparazzi as well as fans.



Confessions of a Shopaholic

On April 2, 2008 my friends and I watched Hugh Dancy and Isla Fisher film their upcoming Disney movie, Confessions of a Shopaholic, on 56th & 5th in NYC. Hugh looked extremely handsome & Isla looked absolutely gorgeous. They were filming in front of a hot dog stand & Isla was jumping up and down excitedly (for reasons I don't know...I couldn't hear her exact lines). It was so much fun & the paparazzi so tried to recruit me! My friends & I were running up and down the block snapping pics while they were just standing there. They said they'd be happy to give their cameras to us :)
Here are some of the pictures...some are a bit blurry because my hands were shaking because I was freezing!
