ANGELA'S BLOG Hi! I'm Angela. I'm 13 years old and I live in Taunton. Welcome to my blog! 21st May Have any of you ever met a famous person? Have you ever written to a celebrity? Have you maybe got a film star's or pop star's autograph? Tell me your celebrity stories! Hi, Angela! I've been reading your blog for a year now and I always enjoy it! To answer your question, l've never met a celebrity, but my dad has. He's been working as a journalist for about 15 years and he's interviewed lots of famous people, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Penélope Cruz and Scarlett Johansson! That's cool, isn't it? I want to work in the media too when I'm older - then I can meet some famous people too! Laura P I've been living in Los Angeles since I was 10 (I'm 14 now) so whenever a new movie comes out I stand outside the premiere and try to take photos one he colerities! l've got some great photos of Megan Fox, Ben Stiller, Isla Fisher and Johnny Depp. I haven't ever asked a film star for their autograph though - I'm too shy! Great blog, Angela! I've been a huge fan of Lady Gaga for about two years now. About a month ago, I found the address of her record label online, and sent her a letter, asking for a signed photo. I haven't had a reply yet. I'II let you know if I get one! Clare Dawson The only famous person I've ever seen in real life is Angelina Jolie. Last summer, we went on holiday to New York. While we were shopping in a big department store, my mum suddenly said, 'Look! That's Angelina Jolie!' And it was! She was shopping with several other people. Someone went up to her and asked for her autograph. She smiled, said 'Sure!' and signed her name on a piece of paper. She seemed really nice! Antonio My favourite actor is Robert Downey Jr. I've always wanted to meet him but I've never had the chance. I get very excited if there's an interview with him in a newspaper or magazine! l'm also a member of an online unofficial fan club, so I get to chat to lots of other fans. Some of them have met him! Maybe I'II meet him too one day. I hope so!
