A Twilight fan named Tanya shares her Taylor Lautner encounter with us! Taylor, Rob and Kristen were in Japan this past February for a "Twilight" press conference.
Tanya took a 2 hour train ride from Yokosuka to this event, which was held at the Ebusi Garden Place in Tokyo. It was raining that day, and the weather was freezing cold and a mere 5 degrees! This is her story.
I arrived at 11a.m. and there was about 30 people ahead of me.... I wasn't even in line for a few minutes when people were filing in behind me. Despite the freezing cold weather, spirits were high.
After about 3 1/2 hours of being in line, Japanese media started walking the line and interviewing people. The lady asked if she could interview me and asked questions like "where are you from, how far did travel to get here, how long have you been here, why do you like Twilight, and who's your favorite." I already saw the movie on base so she asked how many times. I was one of the very few who had already seen it.
Two hours till the red carpet was about to start, everyone was handed slips with numbers so you could leave and come back right before. Most of the line cleared out leaving me way closer to the front of the line (about 12th). 30 min till the start time, everyone was let through to line up on both side of the red carpet...and their cars were pulling up.Read more
