Mockingjay Premiere


I obviously should have done this post about 3 weeks ago but I've been very busy recently and haven't sat down with my in a long time. I'm about to get all caught up and then not procrastinate. The first of my recent adventures that I'd like to tell you about is the Mockingjay premiere.

Last year you may remember my post about the Catching Fire Premiere. We had such fun, we decided to go the Mockingjay one this year! It was also quite a huge success even though I was so worried that it wouldn't be.

Initially it felt quite organised. We got given wrist band and got told that we only needed to be back at around 11am to get put into number order. The whole getting into number order thing was a bit crazy, but in the end it worked out alright. Then we got put into the pens and the location of us was quite far away from the cinema. I was so worried that we wouldn't get any autographs or pictures being where we were.

Thankfully some of the stars walked all the way down to where we were standing and it was so nice of them to take the time to walk all the way down!

Julianne Moore was soooo nice. She chatted to me for a bit and asked if she should sign my picture (it was of Katniss) I wanted everyone to sign it and when I told her that she was like "Okay!" and signed it!



Liam Hemsworth...you beautiful heartbreaker. As you can see, he was right next to me and was about to sign my picture when he just turned and went to the other side. Gahhh! If he had signed it, that would have been everyone I wanted!


Can we all talk about how nice Sam Claflin is? He took sooo much time to oblige fans, taking selfies, signing things and being genuinely awesome. I had mad love for him after seeing him. And dimples for days yo!




Flawlessly beautiful Jennifer Lawrence who signs like a cheetah just moving up the line sooo quickly!


And lastly Josh who is so lovely, but I think he still wasn't feeling great. He was very quiet.




You and me both awesome sign maker.

We had a really good day even though these days we find it hard to stand for so long! Going again next year to get that signature for Liam (even though he signed my DVD case last year)


Catching Fire World Premiere

This is going to be such a fangirling post!! I went to the Catching Fire World Premiere in London's Leicester Square. I thought I was quite early, arriving there at around half 11, but some people had camped out from the day before! I was majorly late in comparison! We had to queue up and get a number and write our names in a book. Kat and Rachel got there before me so they were in a queue in front of me. I asked the security if I could go and stand with them but he said we had to be in numerical order! Hmph! At first I was apprehensive about standing there alone. After a bit we got shuffled to different areas of Leicester Square, and I was no where near Kat and Rachel. I decided to stay where I was though, because I had a scope for good photos. The security guard said that I probably won't get signatures but photos were definitely possible.



I had come well prepared in terms of dressing warmly and making sure I was waterproofed! There was a lot of rain. I also had made a checklist of stuff I would need the day before and I was sure I had everything. I started talking to a lady that was next to me who had also appeared to be on her on, and after talking for a little bit, she asked me to save her space and told me she would be back in a little bit. She didn't come back. So I started talking to a man that was next to her who also seemed to be on his own. He was on his own and by the end of the evening we were friends. It was really lovely! After a few hours I realised that I should have brought a chair with me because standing for 6+ hours is really not ideal. I also should take scissors with me next time, to get the posters that they hang up on the barriers.


Very many hours later, the celebs started to arrive and we got so excited!!










The stars came really close and I was shaking a lot because I was very excited! I managed to get autographs from Donald Sutherland, Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson. I was absolutely gobsmacked that they all stopped to sign my stuff! I would have like Stanley Tucci's sig but he was moving too quickly! They all responded really well with fans and were happy to take photos and sign stuff. I got squished by people behind me who were clambering to get their things signed! Clipboards were pushed on my head and stuff! Just cos I'm short.


Ohh it was such a nice evening! Even with the rain and the all the waiting, it was still great and I was buzzing the whole way home! I made a new friend and I got stuff signed and got to say hello to some stars that I really love! I will be going to more premieres! Too much fun times!
