I was so exited to be invited on the set of the new movie The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants Part 3. I loved the first two parts and the third was supposed to be the best of them all. The movie reunited the main cast members of Amber Tamblyn, America Fererra, Blake Lively and of course my favorite Alexis Bledel. Now I know the movies are mainly geared to the younger generation of girls but at 27 I watched them on TV and simply loved the movies. The are easy and fun to watch but that wasn't my reason for watching them. The reason was Alexis Bledel, I fell in love with her the first time I saw her on the television show Gilmore Girls where she played the part of Rory. Though she was younger then, she is now 29 and hotter than ever. I took a chance and entered a contest which consisted of me cutting out a ballot off my box of Honey Nut Cherrios to win a tour of the set of the new upcoming movie never expecting to win. I was notified by mail several weeks later that I have won and was told to call a number to set up the appointment which I did immediately. I was so excited.
I arrived on the set and was told on the phone I would be given a tour and the person would meet me where I stood. I am sure numerous members of the cast past my me a few times but everyone moves so fast and there are so many people cast, crew members, directors and others I hardly notice them. Then about 50 yards in front of me I saw her, Alexis Bledel walking towards me. She was wearing a white sundress with a colorful floral decoration all around it and simple white strappy sandals. I felt a little out of place wearing just a white t-shirt and denim shorts. She was definitely one person I could not miss, her dark hair and her sparkling blue eyes and that body of hers. As she walked towards me it seemed like it was all in slow motion, her stride and her hair blowing in the soft breeze. I was star struck I just prayed she wouldn't say a word to me cause I don't know if I would be able to get any words out. The whole world around me went silent and I drifted away and I concentrated solely on her.
As she came closer she smiled at me and waved. I thought to myself, "oh no now what do I do?" She extended her hand. "Hello I am Alexis I am here to give you the tour of our set." Oh my God Alexis Bledel is actually talking to me. I stood there my mouth slightly open it sounded as if I was gasping for breath.
"I'm...I'm...I'm..." was all I was able to get out.
"Emily, yes I know they told me. So follow me Emily lots to see."
