My name is Taylor and my Bieber experience happened on November 23rd, 2011 at the Rockefeller Plaza in New York. My best friend Kathryn (the blonde) and I (brunette) came all the way from California to meet Justin and it was so worth it! Her family brought us down. We were lucky enough to get to meet him before he performed. We got there an hour early and we ended up being the first in line. While we were waiting, we saw Kenny, Scooter, Alfredo, Scrappy, and Dan. I was so pumped; I was texting my mom everything I saw. Scooter walked by us so I did a little wave and said, “Hi Scooter!” He responded with “Hey guys.” He was busy. While I was looking around (I was zoned out), Kathryn’s mom said, “TAYLOR! GET IN THE SHOT!!” I looked over and Kathryn and her little sisters were huddled around Kenny for a picture. I was like, “WOAH OK!” and I scurried to get in the picture. We were starting to calm down when Fredo came down the stairs. I pointed him out, and Kathryn’s mom asked politely for a picture with him. He accepted, and we took a picture. He was such a sweetheart. A few minutes later, Dan Kanter came around the corner. I freaked out and quietly yelled, “Oooh my gosh it’s DAN KANTERRR!” and he replied with, “Hey!! Whats up?!” and he put up his hand for a high five. I was panicking so I quickly put up my hand hoping that that was the right thing to do. This was when everyone else started to flood into the room. The line was re-positioned numerous times, so much that I gave up on wondering where Justin was gonna enter. He was an hour and a half late. Finally, Kathryn said that she thought she spotted him on the upper floor. She was right. He came down the stairs and the reaction from the entire room was, “…..GASP…….AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!” I kept my cool surprisingly well; I didn’t burst into tears!! The moment I saw him, my body froze. I was completely numb that whole night. He got all the way down the dramatic flight of stairs, and he was doing a cute little dance. A guard looked at us and gestured toward Justin and we power-walked over to him. We tried telling him what we’d been practicing all afternoon, but he interrupted with “No!! Picture! Picture!” [By the way, he had about 15 minutes to take pictures with around 90 people.] We took the picture and I had to walk across him to leave, so I attempted to hug him, which was a fail, so I walked away with a somewhat distressed face. According to Kathryn’s mom, Justin reached over as far as he could and grabbed my arm. I turned around because I was hoping for more, not because I felt him grab my arm (remember, my body was numb. I was in total shock). I looked at my arm which was held by Mr. Justin Bieber, and then I looked up at him. He looked at me with the cutest smile, he waved at me, then he winked at me . I was overpowered with shyness at that moment, so I quickly turned around to tell Kathryn. Now for the awkward part. Everyone was told to go UP the escalator, but WE weren’t supposed to. I didn’t get that memo. We were halfway up when Kathryn’s mom told us to come down. We were so starstruck that we didn’t hear her the first time. We came back to earth, and so we rushed DOWN the UP escalator. Right in front of Justin. We RAN for the stage (where we were supposed to go in the first place), and we were pushed right into front row. The performance was absolutely incredible. I felt so incredibly lucky.  -Taylor @amenshawty Follow this link: My name is Taylor and my Bieber experience happened on November…
