Comedy to Scary to Fashion SAY WHAT??

Well 2/16/12 was another day at Letterman.  I was planning to go to a filming location but it got canceled due to rain.  But I am going back today to check it out today.  Hopefully I will get lucky to meet some people.  So since it was thursday there were two shows and on the first show was Joan Rivers and Andrew Lincoln.

Since I went into the city early I got to the letterman studio around 1pm.  For most people who try and meet the stars this is pretty early because the stars don't come until closer to the filming time, but I had no where to go and I didn't know who would show up.  So I went to get some lunch across the street so I could at least wait a little bit of time until filming.  I must add that it was FREEZING and raining.  Not a good combo if you ask me.  I waited a few hours and I noticed that really no one was showing up.  I found it to be funny because I was so use to seeing a crowd all the time.  I think the rain had something to do with it.
Me and Andrew Lincoln
Me and Joan Rivers
Well eventually after waiting a while Andrew Lincoln had come.  Me and the few others who were there out in the rain started to yell out for him to come over.  I really didn't know who he was but I still took a picture with him. I thought it would be cool.  I gotta say he was a very cool guy.  Down to earth, and trying to sign everyone who gave him something.  He also took pictures with anyone who wanted.  He really is a nice guy.  Then he went inside to get ready.   Maybe 20 minutes later or so Joan Rivers showed up.  I yelled out as she got out of the limo "Joan come over to the little people".  And she got on her tippy toes and tried to look over the limo.  If you were there you would of have seen it was a little bit funny.  She did acknowledge us but since it was cutting it close to the filming that she had to go inside.  After when the show was done filming or at least they finished their part they came out.  Andrew Lincoln came out first and he came back to sign for a few more people who had shown up late.  Not too long after Joan Rivers came back she came over to sign and take pictures.  She was really cool and nice.

Me and Kristin Wigg
About two hours later the next taping was about to start.  I had been originally waiting for Kristen Wigg because I had met her at a filming location and wasn't able to get a picture with her.  She is just so funny and the first time I got to meet her I thought she was just amazing.  She arrived very late so she had to go straight in to the studio.  Now fast forward about an hour and I had been standing outside for about 6 hours.  I was freezing, wet and everything was hurting in my body.  Finally she came out and I totally jumped at the opportunity.  I kept yelling "Kristin PLEASE come over".  And she did.  By this time the rain was pouring.  And I was glad to get a picture with her.  Its not the greatest picture in the world but I don't care.  I still got to meet her and I was happy about that.  Now it was time for me to go home and get warmed up.

Reese Witherspoon and Michael Weatherly.. WHERE!... I'M THERE


February 13, 2012 was a crazy day.  I went again to the letterman studio to meet Michael Weatherly and Reese Witherspoon.  I got there around 2pm because I knew it was going to be crazy.  Reese Witherspoon brings a crowd with her.  Also that day there were swimsuit models doing the top 10.  They kept coming from 2-4pm.  As I waited the crowd got bit bigger by the hour.  By 4pm I was in the front waiting for the stars to arrive.

Me and Michael Weatherly
Michael Weatherly was the first to arrive. He was hilarious.  He reminded me of his character on NCIS.  Very upbeat and was just hilarious.  Michael Weatherly made a lot of jokes.  I asked for an autograph for my dad and a picture.  I enjoyed talking to him because he was so relaxed and he signed for everyone.  It was awesome.  Then he went in.  A few models came out to sign but not a lot.  Every time I saw a model I kept asking, “how tall are you”?  And the answers I got “ 5’9, 5’9, 5’9 and 177m”.  I did not see that 177m coming.

Reese Witherspoon
Not long after Reese Witherspoon had arrived.  Now everyone was going crazy.  I was having my head used as a board.  I kept yelling again about the little people.  I find it fun to do.  When she got to me I was talking to her about being short and how it sucks.  She actually had to pick up papers in front of my face just to see me.  It was pretty funny.  But about right after me she had to stop signing because security was worrying about her safety.  Which was understandable because people were bombarding her with pictures to sign.  You couldn’t take a picture with her but she was definitely signing.  You would think I would feel bad about those who didn’t get autographs, but I have to be honest.  I don’t and for a very good reason.  After she was done taping she went right into her car.  Nobody knew what her plans were but she couldn’t stay and sign more. Right as she get in her people go crazy and start booing her.  I saw her tell someone in her car “their booing me”.  It amazes me how rude people can be.  She could of signed more people maybe if they didn’t go crazy.  And some people have to remember they are people to.  They have lot crazier and hectic schedules than most people will ever have. 

But, moving on from that, I had fun.  I enjoy meeting new people and having a little chat.  I always try to entertain them for least a few moments because they always entertain us for years.

Another Day At Letterman

Me and Maria Menounos
I had a free day on 2/9/11 and of course I went to the Letterman studio because I knew they always had stars getting interviewed.  Today they were filming two shows so I got to meet a few extra celebs.  I knew Nicholas Cage and David Spade would be showing up.   I really wanted to meet David Spade so I went.  Nicholas Cage was like a bonus if I got to meet him it would be cool if it didn't I wasn't going to be upset.  Luckily as I was walking I ran into I guess was a filming spot.  I have no idea for what but the person there was Maria Menounos.  I asked if I could take a picture with her and I told her "Should never bet against the  Giants".  For those who don't know Maria Menounos had a bet with Mario Lopez about who would win the Super Bowl.  Mario chose Giants and Maria chose Patriots.  She was pretty cool about that and she is a very nice person might I add.

Me and Kevin Corrigan
I got to the stage door around 2pm. I saw a bunch of people already there waiting to meet celebs just like me.  Most of them do it to get paid so I knew today might be a little crazy.  For those who have never done what I do let me tell you this.  People who try and make money off of their signed posters by the stars they will fight crazy just to get something signed that might just even sell for a dollar.  These people will do anything.  Well I had a good spot up in front near the end of the gated area.  What's really great about this area is that you never know who might walk by. Kevin Corrigan was just walking by and he came over to say hi.  Of course I asked for a picture. He was a really cool guy for just coming by and saying hi and taking pictures with everyone there.

Nicholas Cage's face and my forehead
Around 4pm I think Nicholas Cage showed up.  He was a really down to earth guy.  He came right out of his car to sign.  He was on the opposite side of me.  People went nuts.  And since I'm short everyone used my head to hold things up.  So of course I kept yelling" I'm short don't forget about the short people.  Remember the little people.  Were here the little people".  I did get to meet him and he signed a picture I had just printed out earlier that morning.  I even got a picture with him and it is just to funny.  He is a lot taller than me so just for fun I will show you guys the picture.  Luckily when he came back out when he was done with the show and took pictures with fans and signed autographs again.  I tried for another picture but my phone didn't work, but luckily I got in another picture which someone sent to me.  Guess where I am. This just shows you how crazy everything was and how short I am.  If you can't see me look right in the middle of the picture.

David Spade and Me
About 2 hours later David Spade showed up for his interview with David Letterman.  I was excited to see him because I really wanted him to sign my dvd of Dickie Roberts Former Child Star.  And of course people still went crazy for him.  Putting papers in front of my face and trying to push me out of the way, and of course I kept yelling "Don't forget the little people".  He came by and I asked for a picture and I'm guessing this was either his publicist or agent and she said "this girl wants a picture leave her alone and move everything out of her face".  I really appreciated that because I couldn't see anything in front of me.  I took the picture and I haven't done this in a while take a picture by myself so I got him and half of my face.  I say hey why not let it be a victory at least I'm in part of the picture ha.

In all it was a pretty cool day.
