So, last week on June 1st, was Big Japan's (the band Adam Brody's in for those who don't know) show at the Key Club. It was a good show and all that then afterwards when I went to buy a Big Japan shirt, I asked the merch lady when I could meet Adam, she said he usually comes out about 30 mins to an hour after the show after alot people had left. I was waiting for a long time like an hour and a half when i was about ready to leave i spotted ADAM!! i ran over to where he was like in the back trailer area..there wasn't many people there at all because alot of people had already left. His manager or someone kept saying like adam has to leave, i have to take adam now blah blah blah so i asked him "pleeeeeeeeeease" and Adam says of course! so I take a picture with him and asked him to sign my Big Japan cd booklet and i give him a biiig hug and tell him thank you so much and he says no problem at all. then his manager takes him annd the end of a happy story :)

Anyways as i was finishing eating two guys were coming twards the exit and I looked up and saw Adam!! So I quickly yelled... "Are you Adam Brody?!" and he said.. "Yeah, Yeah I am" and i said.. "HEY!" and he smiled and said..."HEY!" as he was walking out.. than he was smiling and waving at me threw the glass window. He seemed really nice.

On September 12th..me and two of my friends went to a Charity event for AIDS in San Juan Capistrano. One of my friends is Sarah Ramos from the show American Dreams, so she invited us! We were painting some picture that was going to be sold on eBay when we first saw him. He was with Rachel Bilson, Peter Gallagher, and Melinda Clark! So we walked over with our cameras and all of a sudden..this blonde chick goes.."Oh, I'm sorry but you can't take pictures with them right now." Rar, we were soooo mad! So after we were done painting, we followed Rachel and Adam into some air conditioned room. We went in as calmly as we could. So we were just chillin and eating some M&M's and watching Rachel and Adam who across the room from us. Eventually, they walk over to our side and we talk a little and take some pics! I won't ever forget it!

I was emailing you to tell you, for one, I love your website, and two, I MET ADAM!!! It wasn’t for long, but it was great. Here’s the scoop: my family, my friend and I were in LA on vacation, a few years ago my mom bought my cousin, her friend, herself, and me tickets to the Teen Choice Awards! Anyway, it was so much fun then that time we decided to do it again this year. We (my buddy and I) signed up @ seatfillers.com to be….well…seatfillers. However, if we didn’t get into the show my mom bought 2 tickets for us. Well, we didn’t get into the show, but that’s a long story, but my pal and I did get to be on the RED CARPET!!! How amazing is that!! We were towards the end of the bleachers (near the “artist entrance”) in the 3rd Row!! We saw such stars as Jimmy Fallon, Lindsay Lohan, Paris & Nikki Hilton, Tom Welling, Dax Shepard, and, most importantly, the ENTIRE cast of The O.C.!!! I was psyched…..wouldn’t you be?!?!? Well, we, as seatfillers, were not allowed to get autographs, but my pal and I decided what the heck why not! He got Jennifer Garner, Brittany Murphy, and Diana DeGarmo, but he was caught and the signatures thrown away!! I, however, was NOT caught and got to keep the only autograph I got…..ADAM BRODY’S!!!! He was so sweet and nice to everyone. He took pictures and signed autographs to pretty much anyone who wanted one. We also got to see Rachel Bilson, Kelly Rowan, Mischa Barton, and actually SPEAK with Peter Gallagher (better known as “Sandy Cohen”)!! Ben McKenzie was there too, but he was sneaky and didn’t walk the red carpet with the rest. You had to have a watchful eye to spot him!! Well that’s my thrilling story!!

I recently went to California for summer vacation. On June 20th I went shopping on Sunset Blvd. we were driving back to our hotel at around 2:00 or so when we noticed a bunch of cameras on the side of the road directly off of sunset. Then we noticed it was Adam Brody! He was doing a photo shoot for Teen Vogue. There was also a girl with him I think maybe she's from the show Gilmore Girls...I'm not really sure, but once I saw that it was Adam we pulled over and parked the car. As soon as I got out they were finishing up, so before he walked away I said Hi Adam, and asked if I could take a picture with him. He said of course, and posed for a picture, I started to take it myself, but he took the camera and said here let me do it. He was so sweet, and so cute in person!

Hey. Okay, so, as most of you know, Adam Brody was on TRL on May 4th. I had managed to get tickets for the show with my friend for that Tuesday, so once we found out that Adam was going to be on, we hopped on the next train for NYC. If anyone saw the episode, when Adam is walking onto the stage as he first enters the studio, he hugs a girl- that was me!

I was wearing a shirt that he had worn previously on the show that says, "Have You Hugged My T-Shirt Today." Luckily enough, there were only 38 people allowed into the audience that day, instead of the normal 100 +, so I was able to be standing right next to the stairs that Adam has to walk up to get onto the stage. When I saw him walk onto the stage, this rush of adrenaline came over me, and I knew that this would probably be my only chance to ever come within any contact of THE Adam Brody.

So, once he was about a foot in front of me, I called out, "Adam," and he looked at me. I figured that I might as well give it a shot, so I pointed to my shirt, and I said, "Can I have a hug?" And he hugged me!!! When we were pulling away, Adam flashed his big grin, and said, "I wore that shirt on the show!" And, I, being the wonderful wordsmith that I am, said, "Uhh... I... I know!" And then he walked up to the stage. This part is on the show. He says into the microphone, pointing at me, "I wore that shirt on the show, that's so nice." And then there is a closeup of me and my shirt.

The thing that really got to me was the fact that he truly did appreciate the shirt. I guess that he realized that I am a huge fan, and that instead of just making a generic "I love Adam" shirt, I wore something that actually had to do with the show, and showed that I cared. I was touched that he said it was "so nice." I wore the shirt for him, and I'm glad that it made him smile. I will never forget that day; it was an amazing experience.

Okay wow definitely love TRL!!! So when Casey found out about the OC people being on, like nobody could go for whatever reason and I like didn’t think it would work out, but then luckily sharons mom changed her mind, my babysitting was cancelled, and like Rachel doesn’t care if she fails Spanish so we all decided to go. Rachel came to my house at lunch and borrowed clothes. We all wore skirts with a bathing suit top and a zipper/button up jacket but low enough so you could see the bikini. We also had towels, and flip flops on. Our signs were like WE <3 BEN & ADAM and we had California Dreamin We <3 the OC & Welcome to NYC Ben & Adam. Anyway, we got their a little earlier than we thought, and we went outside expecting to be really cold but we actually weren’t too cold, even though a lot of people like asked us if we were and stuff. First we looked at the place where the celebrities walk in to see if they were coming in but the guard said they already got there. We also talked to other guards by where you walk in if you have tickets and he said he’d point us out to people and stuff. All the girls on the line were laughing at us, but whatever. So, we walked to where the crowd is outside, and a lot of people were looking at us and like asking us who Ben & Adam were. This guy also interviewed us for some other MTV thing that we didn’t really care about. A lot of people were taking pictures too and we were talking to some people who were trying to promote crunch bars, and they had a huge one and asked to get a picture with us. Everyone was being really nice, and these two girls were like “oh you guys are definitely getting up” and something else about that, but I still really didn’t have high hopes. So we kept on holding up our signs towards the studio and people would look down constantly and this one guy from the crew asked us how many, and we said 4 and he was like nodding and stuff, so I think he was trying to get us in. Then, finally, the show was starting and one of the girls who worked there who I recognized from last time told us to move over, and Rachel kept saying how we were definitely gunna get in, but I still wasn’t sure. So we moved over through the crowd, I figured so they could like tape us but I still wasn’t sure if we’d get in or not. Then Damien appeared from the window and were like screaming and holding up our posters and he was pointing on mouthing come on up (this was all on camera) and were just like screaming and freaking out and then a guard led us through the crowd. The girl we were talking to behind us was like oh my god can I pretend I’m your chaperone? And I just like smiled, and uh walked away. But yeah, anyway we get into the studio and im like OMG 3 times, 3 times this is crazy. So we get in the studio, they check our stuff but they told us to bring the posters in. When we got in there we saw Ben, Adam, and Mischa and it was cutting to a commercial break. So they brought us in, and we tried to get their attention as they were leaving, but the guard made us sit. We had seats like across from the stage, by the door which was good. So as they are walking back in were like Mischa, Ben! And they looked over and like waved at us or whatever ( we were basically the only huge fans there, like noticeably huge so we were getting all the attention from them) and then Adam came and I’m like Adam! And I put out my arms for a hug (like I did with clay) so he came over and I hugged him! Then Casey came in, and then Rachel & Sharon hugged him . He was really nice too, he was like hey how you doing? And Casey was like we were standing outside just in this, it was freezing! And he like tapped her on the arm, and he was smiling, and then yeah he walked over where he was being interviewed. So yeah they were being interviewed, and stuff and Ben & Adam (especially Adam) were looking at us, and our signs a lot. Then they were being interviewed like somewhere else, like across from us and Adam kept looking and I like smiled and waved and I’m like Adam! And he waved and smiled (but it was just to us so it was cool). Then, they were going again and were like Ben! And Ben came over and everyone hugged him, and then I did And he was like hey guys! Then they were like walking to the back to talk to Peter Gallaghers (Sandy on the show) kids, and on the way I shook Ben’s hand. And Casey was like to Mischa, “Mischa we love you too but we didn’t want to put it on the poster cause that would be weird” I don’t think she heard but she was like smiling at us. Also Adam was like looking at our poster and he was like it’s okay cuz I love Mischa, because he was pointing it out to her or something. I’m not sure, Casey saw that, not me. Then as they were leaving Adam like I don’t know did this hand motion to the four of us, and Ben waved bye to the four of us. It was so cool because it was a lot more personal this time, and they noticed us a lot! We also got a hug from Damien, and Sharon + Casey asked them if he remembered them from last time and he said he did. Also we asked Qudus if he remembered us from last year with the Harry Potter thing, and he looked confused but then he is like “the little dude?, oh yeah I remember that” Anyway, Casey also got to say something during a music video about how TRL rules, and coming up to meet the OC people was cool. We were all on tv a lot, and it was really cool! Anyway! 3 times…TRL is definitely the coolest ever, and so is the month October.

Hey there! I wanted to just tell you about my "Adam Brody" encounter.hehe Ok so I am actually from the "OC" which is pretty cool in itself..but I have a story with Adam Brody. So every year there is this event called the "Taste of Newport" which is where local food vendors come and you can taste all this and Sugar Ray was performing. So my friends were walking around and all of a sudden one started to scream. I turned around and saw Adam Brody standing right next to me! I think he knew that we were cause we were laughing hysterically and flipping out. We decided to follow him around all night which was funny and we were standing in a line and he told us we need to scoot forward. Haha he was soooo cute in real life its ridiculous...I just thought it was funny I saw Adam in the REAL Oc...Later My FelloW bRoDy LovErS!

(this all occured Sept. 2nd I believe) My friend and I got to the set and we immediatley noticed Ben and Adam shooting one of the scenes from 'The Heights' and we squealed knowing that we really WERE going to meet them. We made our way closer and saw Mischa off to the side so we went over her for a picture + autograph. Rachel followed and we did the same. Then came Adam. Yay. My friend was SUPER excited to meet him and she actually started shaking a bit. She told him that she was really nervous to meet him and he went, "Nooo. You don't have to be!" We gave him our pictures to sign(well in my case, my school agenda. I didn't have pictures of him on me) and when he saw my agenda he was like, "You're in high school?" I'm like, "Yeah. I'm a sophomore." He raised his eyebrows and went, "No way!" Too cute. =p He stood there for about five-ten minutes trying to figure out what to write on the autograph and kept on saying, "What should I write? I don't want to write that..." and just muttering to himself. He finally settled on "To Stephanie: Make Everyday count - Adam Brody". We took a picture with him and he was just so sweet.

About two/three weeks later we went again, with two more friends tagging along who really wanted to meet someone. This time we weren't as lucky as we weren't able to get near them since they were kind of far off. We waited a while and towards the end we saw that they were wrapping up. Adam proceeded to walk to get his stuff and we called him out and he was like, "Hey!" We asked if we could take a picture with him and he was like, "Yeah. Let me get my stuff and I'll be RIGHT back." Now, this is where I really got to respect him. He could have left, the van with Samaire was waiting for him, but when he came back out he went to the van, "Wait a minute or two. I have something to do." I was like, "YAY!" He saw my friend's binder which had Ben and he jokingly went, "Oh I see how it is." We were like, "No! We love you too!" He laughed and took a picture and went on his way.
