Hi my name is Sammy and I met Justin on October 6th, 2012. His fanclub BieberFever was having a contest to win M&G’s and all you had to do was take a picture of all of your Justin merchandise. I decided to enter it when originally, I wasn’t going to because I didn’t think I’d have any chance of winning. I couldn’t even fit all of my Justin merchandise into one picture. I e-mailed them it on September 26th and my concert wasn’t until October 6th, and I wasn’t going to find out if I’d won or not until the day before the show. Then the day before the concert after I’d gotten home from school, I was sitting on my couch just playing on my phone. I thought to myself, “Oh well I should keep checking my email in case I’ve won.” Before I even opened the message, I saw that there was a new one from the BieberFever website! It COMPLETELY brought tears to my eyes and I ran outside to where my mom was. I was shaking and crying. I said, “HOLY SHIT MOM, I WON!!!!” I handed her my phone and she said, “Oh..my..god..we have to call your dad right now!!” She called him and I was hysterically crying, like I legitimately couldn’t stop sobbing. I was hyperventilating and my makeup was running because I was crying so much. The next day we left my house at about 12:00 in the afternoon since the meet & greet started at about 4:30 p.m. When we got our meet & greet wristbands, I almost started hysterically crying again. We then got into line. All of the sudden, I saw Scooter come outside so I was freaking out! I tried to get a picture with him but he went back inside too soon. Then I saw Scrappy! Once we got inside and finally got into the room that Justin was in, I saw Dan! The guy that was holding the curtain open was Kenny! Ahh, I just couldn’t believe it! We had to be in groups of 6, but thankfully I was the first person to walk in the room. I walked up to Justin, and my hand was covering my mouth because I just couldn’t believe what was happening. I said, “I love you so much,” and my mom said when I first walked in, she saw him smile at me! I gave him a hug he said, “Hi how are you?” I couldn’t even answer because I was so shocked. I was standing completely side by side with my IDOL! As soon as the guy was about to take the picture, he told us to scoot in closer and Justin pulled me completely into him. My arm was around him and he had his arm wrapped around my shoulders. It was the absolute best day of my freaking LIFE! I’ve been a Belieber since 2009 and if I finally got that amazing chance to meet him in 2012 (in which I never thought I would) I promise you, you will. Believe.  See the original post here: Hi my name is Sammy and I met Justin on October 6th, 2012. His…

Do You Hear The Academy Singing? The Daunting Oscar Odds Of ‘Les Miserables’

The Academy Award nominations brought good news and bad news to one of my favorite movies of the year.   Les Misérables   eight nominations including Best Picture, Actor, for Hugh Jackman , and Supporting  Actress, for Anne Hathaway . That ain’t chopped liver, but the highly  publicized snubbing of its director Tom Hooper  along with its absence in all-important bellwether categories like screenplay and editing means what was once considered a front runner is now a real long shot to actually win Oscar’s top prize. You have to go all the way back to 1931’s Grand Hotel  to find a Best Picture winner that didn’t have at least one of those three nominations. In the face of those daunting stats,   Les Misérables  would be a shocking Best Picture winner, but if any movie deserves the upset , it’s this one. A certified box office hit domestically, it just opened to huge numbers over the weekend in England and looks to be a continuing international smash. “Do You Hear The People Sing?   is not only the stirring anthem from Hooper’s adaptation, it’s an apt metaphor for the impact of  a revolutionary film about revolutionary spirit. Hooper took great risks in the telling of  Les Misérables  — and he succeeds. Twenty-seven years in development, the film looked like it might never be made when The King’s Speech director came up with the novel idea of shooting the cast’s musical performances live instead of taking the usual movie-musical tack of pre-recording the songs and dubbing them in later. Without that artificial technique hampering the actors, Hooper and the creative team from the original musical — Alain Boublil, Claude-Michel Schoenberg and Herbert Kretzmer — along with the adaptation’s screenwriter, William Nicholson, found a way to meld the dramatic impact of Victor Hugo’s classic, gritty novel with the theatricality of the beloved stage production for a movie musical experience that hasn’t been seen on the big screen in years. Emotion is at the core of this remarkably entertaining and powerful film. Jackman , with his considerable musical chops, was the obvious choice to play petty-criminal-made-good Jean Valjean, and he delivers even in the difficult two-and-a-half-octave range the role requires.  Although Russell Crowe  can’t  match his co-star in the singing department, he still scores as a potent Javert.   Hathaway breaks hearts as the doomed Fantine, as does Samantha Barks in the role of Eponine.  And though Amanda Seyfried’s portrayal of Cosette is not so dramatically challenging, she still manages to shine in the role. That said, it’s Eddie Redmayne , as Marius, who  threatens to steal the whole show with an impassioned performance that heralds the arrival of a major new movie star. Hooper’s aesthetic choice to shoot the emotional moments in unrelenting close up is a good one, and this is a musical  that even those who hate musicals should find satisfying in its dramatic pull and remarkable ability to move us.

Chrissy Picture Moment

I Don’t Feel Good! Brian Grazer Says James Brown Biopic Is Ready To Start Casting

To paraphrase James Brown , I don’t feel good after reading Rolling Stone magazine’s interview with producer Brian Grazer about the status of the biopic that he and Mick Jagger are producing on the late soul singer. Now that the Hardest Working Man in Show Business’ estate has been put in order, Grazer says the picture is moving forward again after being in limbo for some time. Jagger has come on board as producer, which is a smart move given that he’s a student of Brown, but Grazer’s explanation of director Spike Lee’s departure from the project last fall and the subsequent hiring of The Help helmsman Tate Taylor doesn’t exactly boost my confidence level. Here’s what Grazer says: What happened with Spike Lee, who was said to be directing the original movie project before Brown’s death? He was the choice when I had the rights. I had just produced Inside Man with him. When the rights left me, I didn’t have any control, and I couldn’t make director choices. So when it came later with new people and new rights holders, we weren’t doing it with Spike Lee anymore. The world was different then. Now you have to make movies for less money. When it was announced that Lee was no longer involved and that a white director, Tate Taylor, was on board, the blogosphere went nuts. How do you respond to those comments? What would I say? I view that a bunch of different ways. Mick and I don’t see the world that way. I started my career making Boomerang and CB4 . I’ve made so many movies where I’ve supported black artists. Tate made The Help, and that had almost an entirely black population. I just want to try to make the best movie. Were you surprised by those reactions? Well, I didn’t read them! I can’t make movies like that, where I’m going to look at some blog and change the course of the whole movie. I also think Mick is so amazing. For him to decide he’s going to participate and split half the money – he’s a man of integrity, and I feel pretty good about that. I get that Grazer and Jagger want to make this an Important picture, which Brown most certainly deserves, but I fear that, given the creative path they’ve chosen, the grit of Brown’s life, which is so key to his portrayal, will be sacrificed for something more sanitized.  I hope Spike tweets his thoughts on this. Then again, as the saying goes, “shoulda, coulda, woulda” — the project is moving ahead with Taylor and Fair Game   screenwriters  John-Henry and Jez Butterworth, and Grazer says casting is about to begin: Do you think you’d cast a pop star or an actor who can sing or dance? We haven’t made any decisions yet. We’re going to start casting and we’re going to have to test lots of actors and be determined to pick the right one. No movie starts in a day. I’ve never loved a subject and not made the movie.  Friday Night Lights  took 13 years.  American Gangster  took seven or eight. Who do you think should play Brown? Put your picks in the comments section. ( Jamie Foxx , you can stop raising your hand now.)  Whoever it is, I hope Grazer and Jagger hire Prince to consult on this picture because he’s the only contemporary artist I can think of whose performances match the intensity, complexity and virtuosity of the ones Brown gave in his prime.

I don’t even know what to say right now, I still…

I don’t even know what to say right now, I still can’t believe I met JUSTIN BIEBER. I’m just going to say, if you haven’t met Justin, really don’t give up! My mom, dad, brother and I were in the car the night I was suppose to be getting the email saying if I had won the BieberFever contest coming home from my mom’s birthday dinner. I had entered myself, and my mom into the contest with two different pictures and two different emails and then my friend Erin, had entered too and if she won, she was going to give me the other wristband! I kept refreshing my email over and over again hoping something would come up, when suddenly I got a text from Erin saying, “YOU’RE MEETING JUSTIN BIEBER!” Then not even two seconds later my mom started to scream, “I GOT THE EMAIL, I GOT THE EMAIL! YOU’RE MEETING JUSTIN!” I immediately started bawling and screaming. I couldn’t believe this was happening. I called my friend Sally and told her I had won and as soon as I hung up I had gotten the e-mail from BieberFever saying I had won!! I was screaming and crying even more now, not only did I win 2 meet and greets, BUT 4! A couple minutes later me and Erin were texting, talking about who we should take and I already knew who one meet and greet was going to. I had met a friend on Twitter coming all the way from NEW MEXICO to Tulsa and I knew it’d make her life! I texted her saying, “We’re meeting Justin Bieber!” She couldn’t believe it! The other meet and greets, Erin and I gave to a couple of Kansas City girls who had never met Justin before! I stayed up all night thinking about what I’d say to Justin, and what I would do when the curtain opened. My mom, my brother and I decided we should leave at around 6 a.m., because we were driving from Texas, which is a 4 hour drive. After the long wait, we were finally in Tulsa. I was so excited. We parked and then we walked over to Justin’s hotel and at the time, there was only 2 other girls standing outside so I just waited with them. Out of one of the tour buses, an older man came out of the black tour bus, also known as Justin’s. We started making conversation and he asked us if we wanted a picture inside of Justin’s bus , and no doubt about it I said YES! After the man got back on the bus, Lil Twist came out. I asked him for a picture, and he was being so sweet! He turned towards me and the other girls and was like “Sure, definitely after I come back out!” During the time I was waiting for Twist to come back out, my phone had died. I was so upset, but luckily one of the girls waiting let me borrow her phone to take a selfie with him once he came back out. After the picture I waited until about 1:30 and got bored, so I walked over to the car where my brother was and I sat in there thawing because it was so cold. While I was at the hotel my mom had met this little girl and her grandma, and began to become friends with the grandma! They had told my mom about how the little girl had won a radio contest and they won two meet and greets and two tickets to the concert. Around 3 p.m. they had to go pick up their tickets and M&G’s so me, my brother, and mom walked with them. While we were standing in the room that the box office was in watching the little girl get her wristbands, the grandma walked over to us and was like, “I’m getting you two meet and greets and tickets to the show!” My mom being a fan of Justin was SO excited and my brother being a secret belieber was smiling so hard! I don’t know how she pulled it off but my mom and brother got into the show and met Justin for free! About 10 minutes later I met up with Erin in the box office waiting for my friend from New Mexico and the Kansas girls. When we all finally met up and had our wristbands on, it was time to get in line. We were in the line for like 2 hours and then finally the line started moving extremely fast. A guard had opened a door and we had to walk down stairs and as we were walking down, girls were screaming and bawling their eyes out and running past us! That’s when it hit me. I was about to meet my idol, my inspiration, the one person I’ve looked up to for 4 years now. I started crying, even though I swore to myself I wasn’t going to. When the girls ahead of us went in I got a peek of Justin when the curtain opened and started to cry even more.  I was shaking and overwhelmed. I was seconds away from meeting him. The guard then asked, “Are you ready?” and I immediately screamed YES! The curtain opened and I ran for Justin! The guards stopped me and they were like, “Woah woah woah! You can’t meet Justin if you’re gonna attack him hahaha!” Justin was literally right in front of me so I was reaching my arms out trying to get to him and trying to break free and they finally let me go! I wrapped both of my arms around Justin and I hugged him, basically crying into his shoulder and he hugged me back! I was like, “I love you so much, Justin, I love you” and he was like, “I love you too, don’t cry sweetheart.” By that time I was shaking and crying even more. We turned for the picture and once it was done, I immediately wrapped my arms around Justin again telling him I loved him. Then again the security guards were being rude and pushing me out, but they were nice enough to help me find my way out because I could barely see from the tears. If you were to have asked me what he was wearing in the M&G, I wouldn’t of been able to tell you because when I looked up at him, I saw his face and I was like “OMG he’s real” and I blacked out. It felt like a DREAM. I can’t even believe I was right beside Justin too! -@RadioBiebah See the original post: I don’t even know what to say right now, I still…

“Never say never.” Those words have never meant so much to me than they do now. Before this day came, I was always dreaming of the day that I would meet Justin. I knew that meeting Justin wasn’t everything but it would sure make me happy. When I saw that he was touring again, I begged my mom for tickets. I didn’t care where they were, just as long as I could hear him. My mom gave into tickets. They were in the nosebleed section but I didn’t care, I was screaming that I got tickets . This would be my first Justin Bieber concert. I am apart of bieberfever.com and I noticed that they were having a meet and greet contest. I grabbed all my Bieber stuff, took pictures and entered. I entered the contest really early so I thought that I didn’t have a chance. That night my friend and I were making shirts for the concert. All of a sudden I had this urge to check my email, so I did. There it was. When I read the word, “Congratulations, Jennifer!” I knew I won. I told my friend and we both screamed. We went and told our parents and they almost didn’t believe us. They read the email themselves and looked shocked. I was shocked too! I was going to meet the one person I love. I barely slept that night. I was looking through my phone and saw that 3 days before this I tweeted, “I have no chance of meeting Justin. Why am I still trying?” Dreams do come true. Like Justin says, you have to believe in your dreams. When you believe, things happen. The next day, I got ready so early cause I was too excited. It felt like I was getting ready for a date. When we left for the arena, I was nervous and I didn’t know what I was going to say to Justin. Putting on the meet and greet wristband felt so right. While we were in line, we saw Kenny Hamilton walking by. Is this really happening? While we were backstage, I saw Dan Kanter, Scrappy, DJ Tay James, and Alfredo. I was so happy just to see them! For the picture with Justin, we had to go in groups of six. My group was 3 moms and 3 daughters. This was perfect because my friend and I got to go on either side of Justin. When it was almost our turn, we got a glimpse of him. I almost fainted, it was all so real and amazing. When they finally let us in, I walked right up to Justin and said “HI!” I was probably so loud but he responded with, “Hi there sweetheart!” He called me sweetheart! After the picture, he was like, “Enjoy the show!” I’m pretty sure I told him I loved him but who knows now! After the meet and greet I couldn’t stop smiling – my life was complete. The concert was amazing but nothing can beat meeting him that night. January 7, 2013 was the best day. I had hugged him and when I did, I just thought that my entire world at that moment was in his arms. Believe. This song and word basically changed my life. I knew God was behind this all. People asked if it changed my perspective on him and it did. I respect him now more than ever. I will always be a belieber. This moment will always be one to look back on. Thank you BieberFever for giving me this opportunity. To all of those who think they won’t meet him, NEVER SAY NEVER. You will meet him. Just keep believing that you will. Once you meet him, all you’ve done for this is paid off. I love you Justin. Keep believing and never say never. -@ jenjenleighh Visit link: “Never say never.” Those words have never meant so…

My name is Tori, and I’m proud to say that I’ve been…

My name is Tori, and I’m proud to say that I’ve been a fan of Justin since the beginning. I’ve always dreamed of meeting him, and to be able to write my own Bieber experience. On January 10th, 2013, my dream finally came true. It all started back in May of 2012 when I joined BieberFever and got pre-sale tickets for my best friend Elizabeth and I to see Justin in Little Rock, Arkansas , which is about 20 minutes away from where I live. I was SO excited, and the countdown began. One day back in September, I decided to get on BieberFever because I hadn’t been on there in a while and just wanted to see if there was anything new about the tour coming up. As soon as I logged in I saw an article titled “Rules and Deadlines to Submit for Meet and Greet!” I got excited because I knew that after about 3 years of waiting, I might finally have my chance to meet Justin! I gathered all of my Bieber merch, took a picture, and sent it in . Finally, the day before the concert arrived I began checking my e-mail every thirty minutes to see if I had been chosen to meet Justin the next day! Finally, nine o’clock comes around, and I began to lose hope. I told myself that I would check it one last time, and then go to bed. I opened up my e-mail, and the first thing I see is one new e-mail. I opened it up, and all I read was, “Congratulations, Tori!” and I knew I had won. I screamed at the top of my lungs and started balling because my dream was finally coming true. I called Elizabeth crying, and as soon as she picked up the phone, she knew what was going on. She knew that we were going to meet Justin. I barely got any sleep that night, even though I still had to go to school the next day. The school day flew by, and before I knew it, we were at the box office getting our wristbands for the meet and greet. We stood in line for at least an hour and a half, and the anticipation and excitement just kept building and building! While we were waiting in line, we made friends with all of the people around us, and we also saw Kenny. I wanted to get a picture with him, but he looked stressed out and busy so I didn’t say anything. Then, Elizabeth and I were at the front of the line to go meet Justin. The security guard looked at us and said, “Are you ready?” We said yes, and before I knew it, I was in a room looking at Justin-freaking-Bieber. All I can remember thinking is OMG he’s perfect. I walked up to him and he was being SO sweet talking to this little girl. He was like, “Hi, sweetie! How are you? Will you stand in front of me?” and then he turned to me and he was said, “How are you, babe?” HE CALLED ME BABE. I was all, “Good how are you?” He said he was good and put his arm around my shoulder for the picture, so I put my hand around his waist and smiled for the picture. (I’m wearing the purple shirt, and Elizabeth’s wearing the Hollister shirt) After the picture snapped, I couldn’t think of anything to say, and security was already pushing us out of the room, but at the last minute, Justin was like “I love you!” I turned around, and I said, “Justin I love you too!” and that was the end of it. As soon as we left the room, we both completely lost it. We were hugging each other, jumping up and down and screaming! That was the happiest, and best moment of my life. As soon as we left the meet and greet, we walked to get something to eat, and then went into the arena and got ready for the show to begin. Cody and Carly performed, and it was great. Finally, it was time for Justin. He came out and everyone started going nuts! The concert really was amazing. Justin is such an amazing performer and he really knows how to work the crowd. January 10th was the best day of my life.  -@_ToriHunter_ Follow this link: My name is Tori, and I’m proud to say that I’ve been…

My name is Abby (to the right of Justin) and I’m going to…

My name is Abby (to the right of Justin) and I’m going to start this out in the most cliché way possible; I never thought I would be able to sit here and tell you all about my very own Bieber experience. It all started when I convinced my mom to let me join BieberFever in order to get the pre-sale on the Believe Tour. I was freaking out the night before the tour went up, because I wanted to go so badly! I was already going to Italy for three months, and I was convinced I was going to miss the whole tour. Well, I did miss the city closest to me, but I got tickets to go to Tulsa! I didn’t even look at where they were! I was so happy I had gotten tickets at all, I didn’t realize I had gotten really great floor seats! Fast forward a couple of months and I realized I had forgotten to cancel my BieberFever membership. My parents weren’t happy, but it ended up being fate. Three weeks before the concert, I entered their contest to meet Justin. I entered, but I never thought that there was any chance I would win . I didn’t let myself think about it, because I didn’t want to get disappointed. The night before the concert, I was starting to get bummed. It was seven and I still hadn’t heard anything. I decided to take a break from checking my email and left my phone and computer downstairs while I ate dinner. My best friend, Haleigh (standing to the right of me), came over and we sat down to watch the premiere of Pretty Little Liars when I clicked on my phone to see if I had missed anything. An email from BieberFever saying congratulations made me start screaming.  The day of the show, we drove five hours to Tulsa. We saw all of the dancers in the lobby of our hotel and watched them pack up the buses. We also met Melly (Justin’s drummer). We walked to the BOK Center and saw Justin’s buses. We heard a couple of girls scream when he rode by on his segway, but we didn’t get to see him. By that time, we had to get our wristbands. We waited in line for three hours before we were ready to see Justin. I handed my letter to Justin’s new security guard and he promised he would get it to Justin. Before I could realize anything else, the lady said, “It’s your turn.” I walked through the curtains, ready to tackle him in a hug. But, decided to ask first, “Can I hug you?!” which was the first thing to come out of my mouth. He said, “Of course!” and we hugged. It was amazing. He was so tiny, I thought I was going to break him! Haleigh hugged him too, and stated, “This is weird.” Justin seemed offended, saying “Why is this weird?” Haleigh responded, “Because you’re real!” And he just kind of scoffed at her. We smiled for the picture and then he looked at us and said, “You guys look good tonight.” And of course Haleigh replied, “We know.” They were pushing us out, and I just kept saying, “You’re beautiful!” He was the most beautiful creature I had ever seen. His skin was flawless! And smooth! So smooth!  I managed not to freak out until after we were done, when I started screaming and hyperventilating. I was so glad I had kept it together for the picture! After we met him, it was already time for the concert. Cody and Carly were good, but Justin was amazing. We had to wait for an hour for him to take the stage, but it was so worth it. He was so good! Even when his microphone broke before OLLG, it was flawless! Thank you so much to BieberFever and to Justin and his crew for making our dreams come true! -@abbiebz View post: My name is Abby (to the right of Justin) and I’m going to…

Well let me start this out by saying that I never ever thought I was going to meet Justin. I always thought about what it would be like to meet him though, I always thought that it would be a dream come true. My dream came true on October 20th, 2012. My name’s Madisyn & I’m the girl who is shorter than Justin in the picture. I have always been a fan of Justin, I fell “in love” with him after I heard ‘One Time’ on the radio in 2009. I went to my first Justin Bieber concert on June 29th, 2010 and that’s the day I became a belieber. Some time around late May, early June Justin tweeted that the pre-sale tickets for people with Bieberfever memberships were going to go on sale in like 14 hours. I told my sister Shani (the girl who’s taller than Justin in the picture) that we needed to get meet & greets. The next day while sitting in geometry class I got a call from my sister saying that we had got first row seats and meet & greets to Justin’s concert. I almost shit my pants. I couldn’t believe it! Let’s fast forward to Saturday October 20th. The day we met Justin. I woke up that morning still not being able to register the fact that I was meeting Justin later in the day. As the day went on I started to have a nervous feeling in my stomach. Once my sister and I got dropped off at the Target Center in Minneapolis it really started to click for me that I was going to meet him. We got in a line to pick up our tickets. We were the last people in line who paid to meet him. Once we got our tickets, lanyard, and wristband we went through a door and there was about 70 or so girls standing in a line. Some guy started talking to all of us, he was really nice. The first thing he said was “WHO IS EXCITED TO MEET JUSTIN?!” Of course, every single girl screamed. He also told us that we weren’t allowed to take pictures of Justin when we entered the curtain thing where he was, he said we could hug him but not kiss him, and that we would be taking our picture with whoever we came with (unless you won meet and greets then you go in a group with people you don’t know). While standing there a door opened from across the room and it was Bruce Dale, Justin’s grandpa! I was like omg, there’s Bruce! None of the girls by me cared. So I just waved to him and he waved back. After that the guy who was first talking to us led us up some stairs and that area was where we were going to meet Justin. The curtain thing where you meet Justin is just like the one in Never Say Never. It’s just a black curtain type thing. While waiting in line Diane Dale, Kenny, and Dan all walked by. Justin’s grandma was buying a concert t-shirt! All of the sudden while in line I heard a bunch of screaming, I looked to see what the fuss was about.. it was Justin. He had came out of the curtain in Heely’s but quickly went back in. As I got closer to the curtain I saw that Ryan Butler and Diane were standing right outside of the curtain and then I saw them walk in the curtain area. The line had started moving very fast. You only get like 30 seconds with him so you have to think fast on what you’re going to say. I told my sister to go in first because I was scared. It was our turn and the guy who opened the curtain was like, “Here you go ladies!” My sister walked in and Justin said, “Hi, how are you?!” She said “Hi! Good, how are you?” and he said, “Great!” Then they hugged. I don’t know what I was doing during that because I didn’t hear/see any of it and I was right behind her. I remember putting my purse on the ground, looking to my right and seeing Diane and Ryan standing there. I gave them a little smile. I walked up to Justin and he said Hi! I said hey *VERY SHYLY* with a huge smile on my face and then we hugged. Everyone always says he smells really good, well I can’t remember what he smelt like because I was to busy thinking that I was currently touching Justin fricken’ Bieber. After we hugged I moved over to his side. I honestly don’t remember smiling for the picture, I don’t remember looking at the camera either. I could just feel his arm across my back and his hand on my waist. After the picture the security rushed us out very fast. They had our bags in their hands and as I was starting to walk away from Justin, I felt his arm/hand slide across my lower back and I honestly became speechless. We walked through a door where we sat for like 20 minutes on the ground. After that we were led back through the same door to get first dibs on the merch. My sister & I both got a t-shirt. We went to our seats and waited for the concert to start. While waiting for the concert to start I saw Pattie, Bruce, Diane, Ryan, Scrappy, Fredo, and Kenny. Selena was there too but I didn’t see her. Let me just tell you that Bruce is the cutest person ever. He had ear plugs in and was just looking around smiling the whole time . Carly came out first then Justin. JUSTIN WAS AMAZING. He’s such a good performer and knows how to put on a show. He came and sang in front of us a handful of times and I just wanted to melt. I even got a picture of him singing OLLG where it looks like he’s looking straight at me! The concert went by so fast and I wish I could put that day on replay and keeping on living it. Best day of my life. -@madyczarnecki Read the original post: Well let me start this out by saying that I never ever thought I…
