Hi everyone :)

Many of you probably DONT know who Jay Chou is, but he is an extremely talented and famous singer/actor/director in Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, etc etc.

ANYWAYS, today, there was his autograph session down in San Gabriel (address posted below), and I convinced my mum to take me there! I arrived at 3:00PM, and waited in line. At 5:15PM, people started screaming and cheering, and cameras were flashing everywhere.

Long story short: I had to buy a poster, since the people there said he would only sign the poster (sold there), and his latest album (which I don't have, since I downloaded it :lol: ). People were pushing and cutting in the line. Pretty soon, there was no line anymore; just a huge mob of people, but security there was still okay. They let in a small group at a time into the store, where the group was rushed through. The people in charge literally grabbed your poster, shoved it in front of Jay Chou, had him sign it, then shove it back into your hands, and pushed you out. I only got about 5 seconds to see him- no introduction, no pictures, only autograph (which I'm not complaining about!).

Basically, I waited in line for 2+ hours, and only got to see him for 5 seconds. BUT, i made eye contact with him! yay, haha :lol:
Good experience overall, since it was my FIRST in-person experience/success!

Ya, I know who Jay Chou is! His music is brilliant, though I can't understand it haha. Drifting being my favourite.

Thats a brilliant success. It is near impossible to get his autograph and thats just a brilliant success. Nice job!

ya. I told my friend, who is an uber Jay Chou fan, and I showed him this and he like fainted lol

Jay Chou's autograph is like downright hard to get. You will barely ever have a TTM success and In-Person is close to suicide, especially at his concerts, like Josie has shown with her 5-second-glimpse experience

haha, ya

You are more than lucky! I asked a friend of mine in China to get me his auto in person after his concert. I guess that was a bad idea, considering there were like 2000+ people :roll:
