I saw Johnny Depp!!!!!!!!!!
I accomplished my mission on monday to go and meet Johnny, Orlando and Kiera for Pirates of the Caribbean sequel premiere. I got all their autographs and some photos which haven't been developed yet but hopefully they'll come out all right!
We arranged for a taxi to pick us (me, Sam & Nami) from my house at 3.15am and then got onto the coach at 3.50am. When we got on we saw 3 other girls who were obviously going because they had a pirates hat (why didn't we do that!?).
When we got there it took us a while to find the Odeon because silly us didn't bother getting a map! But we got there eventually around 7am and there were already people waiting who had been there the night before!!! So because of these people it meant we weren't right outside the cinema but further down which didn't matter too much because we were still at the front. It was really badly organised becasue they didn't even have any barriers up at the start so it was just guess work where to stand. It was quite funny at moments cos suddenly you'd see loads of people jump forward thinking they were putting the barriers up so everyone followed and it was manic. I stayed in the same and made Nami and Sam go forward and it was like we were on a mission, no messing, we will be at the front!
So we had to wait from 7am until 5.30pm!!!! It was extremely hot and I'm not really sure how we survived. We did have a couple of entertaining conversations earlier on in the day, both including very weird men. The first man made to out to be a photographer and that he was taking photos of the aftershow party! I was like, hmmm where's your camera etc trying to catch him out... he was just weird! Then the other man came over next to us chucked his bag by our feet and started mumbleling 'it's going to get busy' and then told us he was just going to look around to see if there was a better spot and just leaves his bag with us. I was just thinking, how can he do that, leave his bag with a bunch of strangers??? Then I thought it could be bomb!!!! So I took a peek and it was safe and a few minutes later he came back and sat somewhere else.
In a way it was quite handy not having the barriers up straight away cos it meant I could easily do food and water bottle runs to the shops down the road. Also the secuirity men were really cool cos they kept walking about and spraying us with water which was luuuuuuuussh!
When they put the barriers up everyone just went mad and we got crushed. Also there was this girl who just seemed to appear and she was taking up loads of room and we got sooooooo angry with her. I just thought GRRRR, we've been here since 7am so get lost!!! I think that's how we passed some time by trying to get her to move on her side like everyone else was! She didn't even care that we were getting seriously crushed, almost to the point where I was falling off the edge!
Then around 5.30pm a car drove down and everyone was trying to see who it was but the windows were blacked out. First came Kiera Knightly and she pretty much came to our section first. Then Orlando Bloom, ahhhh! He didn't come to us for ages and our little section were chanting 'ORLANDO ORLANDO'! Then he said he would come back for auographs and bless him he kept to his word. And then, the person everyone had been waiting for, the one and only Johnny Depp! Everyone went mental and we ended up losing our place a bit too cos there was so much pushing! The annoying selfish girl next to us went completely psycho. When he got out of the car she starting shaking and crying hysterically, we were just like you freak!!!!
When Johnny came round I was right by him and he looked right at me lol i won't shut up about that! It's Nami had said, they smile at everyone but when they do it you it's like wow, they smiled at ME! They look just like they do on TV, it was so strange cos we've seen them all in amazing films and there they were in the flesh!
Other celebs who were there were Natalie Imbruglia, People from 'Lost', Bill Nighy, Jonathon Ross, Charlotte Church, Misha Barton (plays Marissa in 'The OC' wahoo!) umm, some guy from the film 'Narnia' and loads of people who I didn't even know!
So we did it, we actually went to Pirates of the Caribbean premiere and I don't think we would ever do that again unless it was for that film!
