Pasaway na talaga ako. Stargazing has become an addiction not even a pressing essay deadline can cure. Somebody save me.

Four autographs
Cate Blanchett was elegance personified. Director Shekhar Kapur (also of the first Elizabeth movie) did the rounds. Got Rhys Ifans' though I didn't know who he was at first. (Apparently most famous for being the guy in his underwear in Notting Hill.) And lastly, a man of his word, Geoffrey Rush, who was first on the red carpet and almost last to leave. He bypassed our area thrice, but kept his promise to return. Waiting an extra half-hour for a personalized signature and this photo was worth it.
oooh the picture with clive owen would be priceless. But the one with Geoffrey Rush is good as well. Keep it up Abbie!!!
ReplyDeleteGeoffrey Rush is cute! But in a grandfatherly sort of way of course! Cate didn't take off her blazer thing?
ReplyDelete@popkitchen: thanks! hope your modules are going smoothly.
ReplyDelete@jon: yez, lolo is the right term. cate took it off for the photogs, but since it was cold and she was going to be there for quite a while, she put the blazer back on.
