The story I’m about to tell you has to be one of the best…

Posted on September 23, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The story I’m about to tell you has to be one of the best things that has ever happened to me. Let me start at around two, maybe three weeks before I met Justin. I found out on Twitter that Justin was going to be coming to the UK to do a signing for Just Getting Started. At first nothing was confirmed, it was just rumors and people saying different things. I decided I’d keep it in mind though because knowing my luck, I’d be one of the last to find out if it was actually true! A couple of weeks after that the signing started being talked about again, and I found out WHSmith were selling wristbands to the FIRST 100 PEOPLE to buy Just Getting Started by 10am the following morning ! When I got onto the website, I was clicking ‘add to basket’ so frequently that I added like 50 books to my basket! I managed to get to the checkout and then it froze. I rang the number on the website telling them I was concerned and if my order had gone through. The lady on the other end said “If you haven’t got past the checkout, I’m sorry but you have probably been unsuccessful.” I was SO upset and almost gave up, but then saw it had finally gone through! I was ecstatic! I got the confirmation email to say that the purchase was received. So weeks went by and then it finally came to the day of the signing. I WAS GOING TO MEET JUSTIN DREW BIEBER . I had never met him before and was so excited that after 4 years (almost) I was meeting my idol. We took the car and everything was going fine until the car BROKE DOWN. It was at this point 2.30 and I had to travel for 2.5 hours to get to London. I didn’t think we’d make it. In the end we had to get the car towed back home and hire a car! Long story short, we made it to London on TIME! I was so relieved, because at one point I actually just thought to myself that I should give up. I met some lovely girls in the queue and it was actually an amazing experience talking to so many Beliebers! I chased Justin’s car (my mom was with me so I made her stay in the queue so I could run and see if I could catch Justin) but by the time I got down there he had gone. I saw the back of his car and I could have sworn I saw Kenny too. Anyway, after the queue went down the nerves really started to kick in. It only just sunk in that I was actually meeting Justin. When I got back, the queue had gone down and before I knew it I was inside the building, having my book handed to me and my wristband checked! The atmosphere was amazing, Believe was playing and it was so great seeing so many Beliebers so happy in one place ! Everyone was dancing, singing and laughing. It was the best feeling ever! When I eventually got to the steps to go onto the stage Justin would be signing on, one of the security (not a part of the crew) lady’s said, “No cameras, no videos. Put the phones away!” We had to do that. It broke my heart that we weren’t allowed but I was thankful to even be here right now. The girls in front of me went in and then when I saw them come out from behind the curtain at the other end of the stage, I knew it was my turn to go in. This was it. I was meeting my LIFE. I got in and saw Kenny and I was freaking out. Kenny hugged me and said, “Ima need you to breathe!” I was with my mom and she spoke to Kenny and said that it was a shame we weren’t allowed pictures. Kenny understood, and then said he wasn’t really allowed but I could take one with him! I was so grateful. After that, I walked over to the table, I saw Fredo at first but couldn’t say anything at all to him because I was being blocked by security, then I saw JUSTIN . I couldn’t breathe, I just wanted to burst into tears there and then and my heart was beating out of my chest. The lady literally grabbed my book from me, put it on the table, he signed it and then they pushed it away and he looked the other way for the next book. I went up to him because I don’t think he saw me through the rush, then he looked up and smiled this huge smile. It was so genuine and warm! ‘Hey, how are you?’ he said. I couldn’t even talk, I just stood there in absolute amazement and awe. It felt surreal. He was so beautiful and amazing! He actually was flawless! Then he put his hand out and held mine! I couldn’t believe it, I just wanted to cry. Then I was forced out by another guard and had to go. Leaving was the worst feeling ever. To know it was all over was terrible but I can’t begin to explain how amazing the feeling was. Wednesday 12th September was the best day of my life. Never Say Never and Believe, you one day could meet Justin too! -Autumn @RauhlThisWay Read more: The story I’m about to tell you has to be one of the best…

Even making it to the Paralympic Games is an incredible feat, given the obstacles that the participants must inherently overcome to excel athletically. Watching the competition, however, gives you a true appreciation for the level of skill and determination of these athletes. Case in point: David Wetherill. For a highlight rivaling any moment from the London Olympics, check out the utterly ridiculous shot the British table tennis standout pulled off this week:

My name is Kayla, I just turned 16 on June 22, and I live in New…

Posted on July 15, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

My name is Kayla, I just turned 16 on June 22, and I live in New Jersey. I’ve been supporting Justin for 3 years, and it was on June 19, 2012 that I finally got the chance to meet him. My friend Madison and I were in NYC when we found out about the J&R meet and greet, but we were far from the store and figured it’d be sold out by the time we got there so we just went to look for his hotel. A couple hours later we found out that wristbands were still available, so we figured out how to take the subway to the store. Eventually we got there and got our wristbands. We called our moms practically crying because we were so happy that after 3 years, we’d finally be able to look Justin in the eyes. Let’s fast forward to June 19 th at 12:30am- the time we (along with our moms) got to J&R to camp out. We were told that a lot of people would probably camp out and that it was going to be crazy, so we got there at 12:30am and ended up being 14 th in line! We couldn’t believe we were that close to the front! We started listening to the Believe album and we all thought that it was AMAZING (I started crying when “Believe” came on)! Eventually everyone fell asleep besides me so I was beyond bored. I mean cmon…there was no way I was going to be able to sleep knowing that I was meeting Justin! Other people started coming on line at like 6:00am and we were all chanting and just having fun. Fox 5 News came and I got interviewed so it was pretty cool . At like 1:00pm they started moving us up in line and they handed the CDs out. That’s when it really hit me; I was meeting Justin Bieber in less than 2 hours. I was so anxious and excited that I couldn’t stay still. We were all going crazy trying to figure out if he was in any of the cars that were passing by, and by now the line went all the way across the street and around the park a few times. Finally at like 2:30ish we were aloud in the room. They had the album playing and some really nice posters on the wall. There was also a HUGE group of paparazzi so it was crazy in the store. We saw Ry Good and Alfredo come out of another room, and then Kenny came walking down another isle. Soon enough, Justin was walking down the aisle and up to his table. The paps went crazy and Justin got his proclamation. The meet and greets started, and when I realized how fast the line was moving I started freaking out because I had a whole little speech planned out, but I knew I wasn’t going to have time to say it all. I finally got up to the front, and I see Kenny and Moshe then I look up to see Justin looking flawless at the table. Like he literally looks perfect in person. I was pushed towards him and when I got to the table he said, “Hi pretty” and I pretty much died! But I stayed calm, smiled, looked him in the eyes (which are GORGEOUS), and told him that I’ve been supporting him for 3 years and that I’m so proud of how far he has come and that I’d be there supporting him till the very end. He was smiling and kept saying, “Thank you”. I was getting pushed along, but when I said my last few words I started tearing up and he just smiled at me. I turned around to try to see my mom and my friend, but all I saw was cameras and flashes and it was actually scary. I got lost for a minute and didn’t know where to go until a lady called me over and I found the way out. By this time, I was crying my eyes out. As I was walking down the aisle to leave, Fredo was walking towards me and saw me crying and was like, “Don’t cry! Be happy!” and hugged me then kissed me on the cheek! I kept walking and was crying so much that I didn’t even know where my mom was. Apparently after I talked to him, she gave him an invitation to my party (which was the coming Friday) and inside was a letter my little brother wrote for him. I finally saw her behind me and we were both just so happy. We couldn’t believe my dream finally came true. As we were walking outside by the line of girls waiting to get in, everyone saw me crying and started asking questions like “OH MY GOD DID YOU MEET HIM?!” “WHAT’S HE WEARING?!” “CAN YOU TAKE PICTURES?!” Between crying and processing the fact that I met him, I was so overwhelmed and I couldn’t answer the questions. My mom was answering them because I was just lost. After we calmed down, my friend and I went to Times Square to see if we can see him at MTV. We didn’t (well…we saw his car leave). Overall, it was an amazing experience. Meeting him (and Fredo hugging and kissing me) was the best birthday gift I could have ever gotten, and most definitely something that I’ll never forget. But with this whole experience, I’ve realized what a crazy and hard life Justin lives. With all the cameras and lights and people yelling at you, it’s got to get tiring. I mean I was in the spotlight for all of 10 minutes and I was so overwhelmed that I couldn’t even think. To think that Justin does that 24/7 is unbelievable. I finally understand why he snaps at people sometimes. It all has to become too much sometimes. I think everyone needs to stop saying that “he’s rude” when he snaps at people or that he “disappoints” you when he does something like flip off the paps or deny someone a picture. He’s human too, and when you’re constantly in the spotlight I think you have a right to say no sometimes. Everyone should just try to be more understanding when it comes to his career and way of life and before saying what he did was wrong, just think about what you would’ve done if you were him, living that crazy, hectic life. Anyways, to end my experience I just want to say that you may think you will never meet Justin, but trust me…eventually you will, even if you have to wait 3 years like I did. My advice to you: when you do get your chance, BE CALM AND EMBRACE IT! If you’re crying or something you’ll miss out on what could be your only chance to talk to him. If you have the time, tell him what you’ve been wanting to tell him for years. Talk to him instead of just staring at him. I’m so happy that I was able to say even the few words that I did and I think I would’ve been upset if I spent my 10 seconds with him crying. To Justin: I just want to say that you don’t have to worry about disappointing us because it’s all about the music, and that’s something you can NEVER disappoint us with. Please don’t worry about constantly being perfect. We know you’re human and that you’re going to make mistakes and we understand. Just remember to do things that make YOU happy, because trust me when I say this- when you’re happy, we’re happy. I love you, and I’ve loved supporting you from the beginning and watching you grow. I’ll be there through all the ups and downs of your journey, no matter what. Thank you for everything. –@yoo_its_kayla See the original post here: My name is Kayla, I just turned 16 on June 22, and I live in New…

I’m Julia, I’m 16, and from New Jersey. My Bieber…

Posted on June 30, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

I’m Julia, I’m 16, and from New Jersey. My Bieber Experience started June 15 when Justin was at The Today Show. I got to the city at 12 am, just to see him perform. I had hopes of possibly having a chance to meet him, but I was unlucky. As my friends and I were walking around the city afterwards, he tweeted about a signing at J&R the following Tuesday and we had to preorder to get our wristbands! We took a 2 hour walk there and got the wristbands, being told we were in the first 200 people to get it. I couldn’t believe I was actually going to meet Justin. Fast forward to Tuesday morning. I woke up at 4 in the morning and got ready, and my mom drove us to the city. We got there at almost 6:30 in the morning and there was already about 25 people in line with there wristbands so I got in line right behind them and waited for what seemed forever. As hours passed, the lines got longer and I was thankful I was in the front. Then 2 pm came. I had knots and butterflies in my stomach. I was so nervous, I had no idea what to say and I still couldn’t believe I was finally meeting my idol. They were running a little late, as Justin being the kind, amazing person he is, was with a cancer patient having a special meet & greet up stairs. At almost 2:30 they allowed some people in. As we were waiting for Justin to come downstairs, Ryan and Alfredo passed by the line. Alfredo was waving to everyone and I screamed, “HI ALFREDO” and he turned around and said “Wassup!?” I couldn’t believe he said something to me. Shortly after, Justin came down stairs and walked to the platform where the table was. The press and paps was everywhere, and all of a sudden Justin left. Everyone was confused, and as the pap started to leave we understood, Justin didn’t want them there. He wanted time with US. As I was getting closer Alfredo walked past again and came over and shook my hand and said hello. I must say Alfredo is one of the coolest people I have ever met. Anyways, before I knew it I was 10 feet away from Justin. I couldn’t believe it. He looked perfect, absolutely flawless. But seeing him gave me confidence, and I suddenly lost the butterflies. I walked up to the platform and handed him the CD/booklet. Instead of grabbing the cd, he grabbed my hand, and looked at me and had the biggest smile. Having that eye contact while he was holding my hand was amazing. I said hi, and he was like hello and smiled again and signed the booklet. I looked at him and asked for a hug. He looked at me and I jumped up on the platform and leaned across the table and he stood up and hugged me. Having him in my arms for 3 seconds was amazing, the best feeling. I told him I loved him and I thanked him. Right after that the security yelled at me and made me leave, so I’m not sure if he said anything back. As I was leaving, I was shaking as I held the CD in my hands. As I was one of the only people who got a hug, I was interviewed, but I was in such as loss of words. I couldn’t even explain the feeling. I never in a million years thought I would have met my idol, the person I look up to the most, and would be writing my own experience. After 3 years of supporting him, going to concerts, trying to find him in the city, and believing, it happened. Never Say Never guys, always believe, because one day everyone will have their own Bieber experience. – @juliaadams3 Go here to read the rest: I’m Julia, I’m 16, and from New Jersey. My Bieber…
