On October 21 st 2012 I was fortunate enough to meet my very own idol, Justin Bieber . To start, I want to explain that I did not buy meet and greets passes, and I only had lower level seats (which were very good!) It all started this summer when my dad met Dan Kanter, and sure enough they are now friends. They were at a concert for a Phish show, and my dad saw Dan . He immediately ran over to him and began chatting him up and telling him how much I loved Justin, and how I have been a fan since before he was very mainstream. After talking for a while about this and that, Dan asked if we had tickets to any of the shows on the Believe Tour and in fact we did and then things happened and here we are now. Now fast forward to the day of the concert, we had been roaming around Milwaukee the whole day and having fun talking to fans. I even saw Kenny on a Segway! I was also interviewed for a Milwaukee website/newspaper and I am at 0:15 in the video, note it was very windy outside. He asked me what Justin meant to me and how long I had been there, and I had been there since around noon. After getting merchandise and talking to more fans, the meet and greet line was forming, and I decided to walk around some more and then get in line because I didn’t want to be first at all. We got in line and then my dad called Dan and he said he would come and meet us inside the building. We jumped the line and got inside and finally, I saw Dan. I immediately ran up to him and gave him a hug and told him how happy and blessed I was to be having this opportunity. Dan was honestly one of the nicest and coolest guys I have ever me t. We small talked about things and he told me that when I’m meeting Justin to try to engage him in to the conversation. After many more thank you’s and talking with Dan, we all got our wristbands and walked to the line. After an hour wait, I was next in line and to say I was excited would be an understatement. I was shaking already and about to break down crying. I had planned out what I was going to say to Justin. I saw Kenny who was standing about a foot away from me and I smiled at him and said, “Hi Kenny!” He looked at me and smiled, and then went back to talking to whoever he was speaking to before. A minute or so passed and then they announced “NEXT GROUP” and I went in with my group, which was my mom, dad, and I. They pulled back the black surrounded curtain area and I saw him standing there, looking perfect as always. Justin was standing there fixing his hair and he looked amazing; he was wearing black skinnies, a black long sleeved shirt, black jacket, and some very nice jewelry . I walked in and I just stopped in my tracks, my legs wouldn’t move, at all. I just looked at him, and then he looked up and gave me the most amazing smile that I had ever seen in my whole life. I blanked and forget everything that I was going to say to him. I finally got my legs to move themselves and I walked over to him and stood right next to him. I was standing next to my idol that I have been waiting four long years to meet. “Hi hun, how are you?” Justin said very calmly to me, and I replied with a “Hi” because that is all that would come out. Then Justin started coughing, so I backed away so he would have his privacy. Then when he was done, he looked down at me and then took my waist and pulled me in to him very swiftly. They took a picture and I honestly don’t even remember taking a picture at all, let alone looking at a camera. I was about to walk out and he pulled me in to a hug, and when I was hugging him all I could think was that he smelt so freaking amazing and that he gave the best hugs in the world. I finally got a few more words out, but only in a whisper. I said “I love you Justin” and then I started crying with what he said next. He looked at me, his eyes were so gorgeous and he whispered back to me “I love you too” and with that I had to leave and when I was walking out I said “Thank you so much” To no one in particular and Justin himself replied to me and said “Thank you sweetheart.” That was hands down the best moment of my life, and after walking out I started balling my eyes out and it was uncontrollable. The thing about Bieber fans is that they are truly happy for you when you meet Justin, unlike other fan bases that would be jealous. I walked outside by myself so I could get some air and try to stop hyperventilating I was greeted with man girls asking “How was it, how was it” and “I am so happy for you” and many hugs. It was the greatest feeling to know that they were truly happy for you and that you could share your now, priceless story with them. The concert was utterly flawless and amazing in all ways, Justin preformed with grace and beauty like he always did. My favorite was when he sang Believe it was so emotional for all of the fans, and there was not many dry eyes in the whole arena. To say the least October 21, 2012 was the best day of my life and I could have never asked for anymore. Special thanks to Dan Kanter, because I would have never been in his position or had this opportunity if it hadn’t been for you, and I am so thankful for it. – Shae (@BiebsGotSwagg96) The rest is here: On October 21st 2012 I was fortunate enough to meet my very own…
