Okay, so this was the day before Gwen’s concert so I decided that after school I’d go downtown and see if anyone came in. As I got off my bus (for those in Edmonton and have been downtown and know the bus stop on the side of the Westin) I saw Gwen’s black tour bus (it’s the dancers bus) anyways, While I waited I saw “Music†come out first. I was like “oh my gosh are you the harajuku girl?†and she was like “yeah, I’m music what’s your name?†I say my name is Anton and she was like “Nice to meet you Anton†then “Baby†and “Love†came out and we introduced ourselves then “Angel†came out. She was the one I talked to the most. I asked her if she could sign my harajuku lovers pic and hollaback girl cd cover and while she signed it she asked me if I had any extra copies of the pic I told her no because I didn’t know if I would see you guys and I just packed my stuff because I was expecting to see you guys all tomorrow and we laughed. Then she called the other girls and the signed my stuff. Music wrote “Super kawaii!†in japanese which meant “SUPER CUTE!†haha. Then angel called Legacy. One of the Harajuku boys to take our group pic. Afterwards I told angel that I’d make her a copy tomorrow and she was like “aww no you don’t have to!†but I said noo it’s no problem. Then she smiled. Before I went she asked where my seats were and I told her 13th row on the floor. Then I left ha. I was surprised with how fluent they were with their English. They had a bit of an accent but spoke well. And angel sounded exactly like Nicole Richie it was freaky lol.
Nov. 18 – DAY OF GWEN CONCERT
I got to Gwen’s hotel at 2:00 pm and I saw her tour bus was still there so I thought she isn’t doing sound check right now since her show was at 8:00 pm, so I headed to the westin where the harajuku girls were at. I didn’t see them so I went back to Gwens hotel. I was getting bored so I went into the health center/gift shop/pool and it gave me old memories of when I saw hilary duff there so as I paid for my stuff I saw Gwen with Iona (her personal assistant) working out. As she walked to the treadmill I waved and said “Hey Gwen! Good luck tonight, you also look cute even when you’re working out†she smiled and said “Thank you, see ya tonight†and I went back outside. By then it was around 3:45 and they started loading the busses. At around 4:15 ish Gwen walked out of the hotel with Iona and her hairdresser/stylist and I waved to her and she walked over. So basically this was our conversation. She also looked so cute she had this green, white, red stripped beanie on her, a pair of white shades (the ones with big lens), “bananas†sweats and a pair of mukluk/ugg boots.
Me: Hey! How was your work out Gwen?
Gwen: Good, I’m freakin’ tired!
M: Haha, aww! I hope you’re rested for tonight!
Iona: Gwen, come on you can’t afford to get sick we have to go on the bus.
M: Gwen before you go, could you…?
G: *looks at my cd covers and pic* Sure, and we walk to her bus. She goes in and put my stuff on the dashboard thing and says Aren’t you f***ing freezing?
M: Yeah! But it’s cool cause you’re here.
G: Gives me a smirk and says here you go, hey did you meet the girls (harajuku because I got my hollaback girl cover signed by them)?
M: Yeah, I got a picture and everything! *gets out my pic with them and her stylist/dresser hands it to her.
G: That’s cute when was this?
M: Yesterday.
G: Oh cool,
Iona: Okay, Gwen we have to go now.
M: Gwen could I please get a quick picture?
G: Sorry, the bus is going now.
M: Aww, could I get a hug?
G: *sighs* okay, goes down the steps and gives me a hug and then closes the door.
So that’s basically my Gwen encounter. Here are my pics and autographs.
Concert
WOW! So I honestly don’t know what to say. The show was freakin awesome. The stage was the hottest stage I’ve ever seen, it’s very theatrical. She got everyone screaming, and singing, jumping and EVERYTHING! I’m not even joking the whole concert everyone was just standing up for her. Through out the show she kept saying how she loves Canada and wants to come back soon and for hollaback girl the encore she brought all these little girls and a few older girls on stage which was cute. Her set list was
