When Stars Are Fans

[kuda]

I tried twice to crosspost this from DW. Guess there is an issue going on with LJ.

We all know how giddy we get when we meet an actor we are crazy about from our fandoms.

Quite often at cons, actors talk about meeting other actors who they admire. It's fun when
they go all fanboy/fangirl. Wil Wheaton is a true fanboy. Seems his wife, Anne, is fangirl too.

When I finished one of my photo ops in Ottawa, Nathan Fillion was doing one of his in the
photo area next to mine. Anne was with me, and I know that she loves him as much as I do,
so I grabbed her hand and ran with her into Nathan’s line.

I walked over to Nathan, and said to him, so Anne couldn’t hear, “Would you literally sweep
her off her feet?” He laughed and said he would. Then he turned to me and said, “And you
stand here, and look sad.”



My internal dialog at this moment is: “I wish Nathan Fillion would sweep me off my feet.”

Nathan Fillion is as kind and funny and charming and friendly as you think he would be.
We’ve sort of become friends, and that makes me so happy; he’s really good people.

I wonder what happened to Nathan's hand? His right hand has a bandage on it.

I was so surprised by how many actors are true fans themselves. We've seen it over and over. Makes me feel close to them when they get so excited.

I think that is the coolest star photo I have ever, ever seen!

LJ is being wonky again for me. I typed in a comment and LJ ate it.

Many of the stars will pose with fans in special ways. Some are just stiff, but many love to make their fans happy. Nathan is one of those stars.
