Kylie Minogue, Danica McKellar, more in NYC, Channing Tatum in PA

Post by class316 »

Danica McKellar was one of the last remaining Wonder Years names I still never managed to score. Whenever she had a book signing I could not attend it for one reason or another. Matter of fact I would say Winnie Cooper is probably my first ever female crush. So I made it a point to attend the next one. To boot, Channing Tatum had an appearance in Hummlestown, PA that guaranteed photo ops. Already have a shot but it's sub par. So I thought this was a good opportunity to upgrade. I would also combine these with other meets.

Arrive in NYC the evening before the Danica signing. I join :greg: at a spot for a slew of celebs most notably Lee Pace who I failed on in the past. This time he is cooperative for the photo op! I also got repeats in Ellen Barkin and Eric Bogosian.

Next up I go to try for Kylie Minogue. I remember her when I was in high school and she was also Cammy in the Street Fighter movie starring Jean Claude Van Damme.

I am joined by Vanessa and friend. While waiting I get a couple of barely valids in her band. Finally she comes out and amidst chaos I score a photo op but no autographs (not everyone present got autos/photos). Sadly I got a horrid photo bomb. After she left I confronted said photobomber. I yelled and cursed him out, and called him a fucking asshole. Venue security tried to intervene to prevent violence as I cursed him out. It amazes me what scum bags people can be. I go through hell and high waters for my ops only to have it tainted like that. :angry:

After calling it a night, I secure my free parking spot walking distance to my first spot in the morning. Wake up and go to my first spot for Jessica Chastain. I got her once before but wanted a better shot plus autographs. She arrives and is as nice as can be. At first she takes shades shots everyone but then removes the shades as I promptly ask for a redo which she obliged. I now consider her virgilized. Also got a photo with actor Michael Greyeyes.

Next up I go to a movie shoot. I want to upgrade my Melissa McCarthy photo op and score a first time Tiffany Haddish (who I seem to be cursed with). I get rebuffed by both. I then try for Elizabeth Moss but she politely declines citing the fact that she is suited for her role.

After this sweeping failure, I go to Barnes and Noble for Danica McKellar. She does a speech and does photo ops and extras. Wow why can't every book signing be this smooth.

Go to a spot in the hopes that Tiffany Haddish shows up, but apparently she didn't and everyone there are basketball names. So I go to a spot to get Idina Menzel, which in hindsight was a great move cause the sports spot was a bust. I manage to get actor Will Brittain. An old lady photobombs not one but TWO of my shots. Honestly what do I do in these situations? Do I curse out the old lady? When it was time for Idina I positioned myself so she couldn't photobomb. She was nice and I got the combo.

Go to the final spot for the evening where I again hope to see Tiffany Haddish. Get a lot of sports names I don't know and finally Tiffany exits. She is denying but then a combo hunter successfully breaks her down and I manage to grab a photo op as security is whisking her away (photo also features Common who I didn't get but got many times in the past). With that it was time to go to PA for Channing Tatum.

I had planned to drive there and stand in line, but couldn't finish my drive and had to pull over. Wake up and drive. Thankfully I have a savoir in the form of :perplexed:

He is buying multiple bottles and will help me out. I am 20 minutes from the location and my bowels could not hold up any longer. I pull over and take a crap in the woods. I finally arrive and go to the bathroom at K Mart where I finish up and clean up. I don't think I was ever so happy to see a toilet in my entire life.

I help up a spot for CM as he went home to rest up. I would eventually be joined by both him and Mama :perplexed:

People were camping out and waiting for hours upon hours until it was time. Finally got to Channing and he was cool. I got a perfect shot. Mama CM is such a bad ass she even scored an extra.

With that I set my GPS to avoid all tolls and headed home. I would like to thank CMShowstopper for his help in this. It was also good to hang out with both him and Mama CM.

If a buffoon shits in the woods alone, has it really happened though?

Also, I'm amazed that awful Street Fighter movie actually got released in Uzbekistan!

Don't you mean Kazakhstan :haeeeh:

The magazine I had for her to sign I've actually owned for about a quarter of a century (give or take a few months)
