Extrie! Extrie! Read all about it!
Where's the hoardes of fans?
Where's all the pretty girls?
Here's the eye-witness account of a brave "Anon", at the sad scene of the Lolkyrie premiere:
When we arrived at the spot of the premiere, there were barricades set up along both sides of the street, presumably for the throngs of fans and paparazzi that weren't there. We took our spot across the street from the hubbub against one of the barricades.
We immediately noticed a lot of cops. We're talking between 15-20 just along the front. Some on foot, some on rested motorcycles. We even saw a few familiar faces on the squad: the usual suspects from the LRH Way street closures.
There was a red carpet within a tented area set up so that stretch limos could pull up in front, and the assorted celebs could get out, walk about 5' and file into the tent through a flap door. There was also a bullpen type area to the side of the tent that allowed around 100 fans to hang out and try to catch a glimpse of aforementioned celebs.
The moment we arrived, several fans within the bullpen area started taking photos of us. Two guys sitting at a table in front of the coffee shop, obvious PI types, were doing some fail camera work. They claimed to be there for Tommygirl, but kept their cameras on us the whole time. When an anon called them out, they left the table to go sit in their minivan, parked just across from us and continue filming.
When Tom arrived, he quickly entered and they closed the flap to the tent but only while he was in there. One of the paparazzo on our side of the street came over to tell us that he was in there and that they'd closed the tent. At that point, the Anons started calling Tom and asking him to come out and play. They cited various crimes that his money goes to bankroll, challenged him to come hang out and chat, etc.
Nothing.
No response on Tom's part.
What happened to confronting and shattering suppression?
Boo.
After about an hour, Lizza Uvizl, the woman who ever-so-lovingly filed a restraining order against AGP, came down the street, refusing to look in our direction and briskly walked into the building. AGP just so happened to have been present at the time.
Coincidence?
Around 7:30, when the movie was starting and the assorted celebs were all nestled in with their popcorn, we walked down to the garage entrance to catch people who weren't staying for the movie. A ladyfan who'd been in the tent area came over to chat with us. She'd wanted to leave but the valet guys had her car blocked in the garage. She asked us to give her info on what we had been yelling about and what kind of nasty business CoS was up to. We explained a bunch of stuff, including Fair Game, and she said "Yeah, I heard one of the guys on the corner talking on a radio about where you guys were standing and that you'd moved. I thought that was kind of creepy and excessive."
At least 2 paparazzi got film of us waving our signs around and Shoop hollering when Tom arrived. We also had our photos taken by several different paps. At one point, one of them came over to us and told us that Jenna Elfman apparently overheard Anons and got a nasty look on her face. "You got to her!" they said.
Tee hee.
Fun night, very receptive people on the street, everyone was on their best behavior and it was freakin' COLD. Ya know, for Cali...
