Jared & Shannon Leto of 30 Seconds to Mars

30 Seconds to Mars was doing a live concert in Hollywood this week to promote their new album Love Lust Faith + Dreams which releases tomorrow.  I went to watch the concert and hopefully get some Jared Leto autographs.  

First I saw Shannon Leto and he came right over to sign when some fans called his name.  I didn't have anything for him so I just snapped some pictures. 

Then I watched the show.  

After the show I went backstage and snapped a few pictures of Jared. 

And then about an hour later Jared came over to the fans and signed autographs.  He's a pretty good signer and is very fan friendly.  He signed my four 11x14s photos and I went home happy. 

Connie Britton aka Rayna Jaymes completes my Nashville combo

I got Hayden Panettiere to sign a Nashville Juliet Barnes & Rayna Jaymes combo shot for me a few months back, but was unable to get Connie Britton on it.  So when I heard Connie was going to be out doing press this week in Hollywood I was all over it.  All I brought with me was my one photo and my camera. If I completed my combo I was going home happy; if not I would leave sad.  Luckily I went home happy.  Connie came over and signed, took pictures with fans, answered a few paparazzi questions, and was all around nice to everyone. Thank you Connie. 

 Complete!!!!

Star Trek Into Darkness Premiere

I don't feel like recapping my whole night at the Star Trek premiere.  So I'm just going to upload my pictures.  I got every one of the main cast's autographs except for Zoe Saldana who never signed in the area I was.  JJ Abrams and Alice Eve were the nicest of the cast.  Zachary Quinto signed the least. Anyways, here is the Star Trek Into Darkness premiere through pictures:

Ryan Hardy & Joe Carroll aka Kevin Bacon & James Purefoy

If you were not watching season one of The Following on FOX you should check it out.  I think it's the best new show to come out this year.  Kevin Bacon, James Purefoy, Valerie Curry, Shawn Ashmore, and Natalie Zea all work really well in their roles; and creator Kevin Williamson has done a good job of translating the suspense, action, and drama of Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer into television.  

Well Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy were doing press last week for The Following and I went to try to get some autographs.  James Purefoy arrived and came right over to sign.  There were only about ten graphers there and James made sure he signed for every one of us.  I had two combo shots along and one individual and he signed them all for me right in a row. 

Kevin Bacon arrived next but he was dropped off at a side entrance and went to do the press line first.  We were standing a solid 100 yards from where he was so we thought there was no chance we were going to get him.  But just for fun we started chanting "Bacon, Bacon, Bacon".  To our surprise Kevin finished press and made the 100 yard walk to come over and sign some autographs.  I would be hard pressed to think of another celeb who would make a 100 yard walk after doing press just to sign for fans.  It was really impressive.  I handed Kevin my gold sharpie, he completed both my combos, and I went home happy.
