They Used my Voice on The Buried Life....

but they EDITED THE HELL OUT OF MY CONVO WITH JONNIE!!! What's up with that????

HOLY SHIT... that was my voice on The Buried Life's "Get a Lock of Robert Pattinson's Hair" episode.

For the very few of you out there that read this blog on the regular, you will probably remember when my besties and I (aka The TwiMafia) did our "LA Book Club Meeting" (aka when we stalked Rob) in July.

Well, the last night we were in LA, we went to Hotel Cafe to see Sam (and Rob). As you may recall, we did indeed see Rob that night but little did we know we also ran into the boys from The Buried Life.

At the time I had no idea who I was chatting up...  and who ONE OF US was HAIR GROPING...(cough PurpleBrina cough).

Little did we know, he wasn't just some adorable "Gay Robert Pattinson Fanboy" as he claimed. He was Jonnie Penn from The Buried Life. WTH?

Ok, fast foward... When I heard about the "Robert Pattinson" hair episode, and that they filmed part of it at Hotel Cafe, I was totally excited because I knew that we were at Hotel Cafe that night as well. Then two and two clicked together and I had a "Oh shit" moment! OMG... what if they got us on camera and we didn't even know it. But then I was assured by Bostongirl that they would have to tell you if they planned to show your face on tv. Whew!

Then imagine my surprise when Bostongirl called Monday afternoon and said, " Um, you better go watch the preview of tonight's Buried Life. It's you bestie. It's totally your voice!"

My first thought was WTH? Then I watched this clip....



AND THEN I WAS LIKE WTF??? They edited and pieced together different parts of our convo and made it into something totally different!


This was SOME SERIOUS TV EDITING TRICKERY. Very slick MTV... very slick.

Here's how this convo went down. Granted this is not vebatim because there was some alcohol involved but I do remember our convo.

I told NextstopSF that I was still blind from being paparazzied. That's when Jonnie appeared out of nowhere and asked me who I was paparazzied with.
I told Jonnie that Amanda1104 was friends with Giovanni Agnelli and that we were trying to help him to his car without being seen by the papz. I told him we walked out in a group and "he was all hiding in the middle of us" but the papz saw him anyway and how they chased us and flashed their cameras right in our faces. It was crazy.

He asked me if the papz were there for Gio and I told him no, they were there for Robert Pattinson. He asked me if I knew where Rob was now. I told him Rob was in there somewhere, pointing to the front part of the bar. He asked if I thought they had left already and I told him that if the papz were still out there, Rob was still in here. 
                                                                                                                         
And the part about the girls screaming... I'm pretty sure I was talking about Kristen and TomStu leaving the Trubudour the Friday before and how the papz went nuts and jumped on the car and how all these girls were going crazy screaming at them to leave Kristen alone. But then again I also told him about being on set that day and how girls were screaming Rob's name and going crazy but Dean just drove right by and didn't stop and that Bostongirl and I figured it was because he was trying to get to Sam's show on time. (yes I talk a lot when I'm drunk... so sue me)

Anywoo... either way, they edited the whole convo and made it sound like ROB was walking in the middle of us (I WISH) and that girls were screaming and going crazy. NOPE... not how is happened.

But my convo wasn't the only thing that was EDITED in this episode of the Buried Life. I couldn't believe they actually showed a clip that was supposedly Rob leaving Hotel Cafe that night on July 13, but was actually footage of him leaving Jimmy Fallon's Emmy party with Stephanie Ritz, his manager, on August 29.

This is Rob leaving Hotel Cafe July 13th


This is the a pic from the footage The Buried Life
used. It's from Emmy Night August 29th

The beard alone was a dead give away.

How dumb do they think we are. Not to mention they want us to believe they actually SNUCK INTO THE SOHO CLUB... sorry boys. Anyone that knows anything about the Soho Club knows you can't just sneak in some "open back door".

Then "20 Minutes Later" when it was LEGAL to show us more footage they SUDDENLY HAVE A SINGLE STRAND OF "ROB'S" HAIR... WTF?? Hell, that could be Jonnie's strand of hair for all we know. C'mon boys give us a little credit here. We're ROBSESSED not STUPID!


I will admit Jonnie has great hair and I'm totally having hair grope envy...

but this whole Rob Pattinson episode was nothing more than a publicity ploy to get ratings.

Shame on you MTV! Shame on you!

TwiMafia LA Book Club Mtg ~ Day 5 ~ So a Celebrity Walks into a Bar...

Day 5
"So a Celebrity Walks into a Bar...."


The day started like every other day this week.
The TwiMafia dragged their asses out of bed, jumped on Twitter and checked in with our "sources"!

The Mission is coming down to the wire.

Today has to be the day... it just has to be!

Why today you ask?
Because we've worked so hard. 
Because we have put in the time, sweat and tears.  
Because we stayed up for 28 hours for a chance to see him and got denied. 
Because 5 of us sat in a Kia freakin' Rondo for days, just to watch him drive right by without a single wave. 

(Side note... Dear Enterprise Rental Car, THIS IS NOT A SMALL SUV, asshole! Love, Me!)
Sorry, where were we.... oh yeah.....

Because all of our hard stalking work has got to pay off...
And most improtant....because we're all going home tomorrow dammit! 

Today would also the day that the most Robsessed of the TwiMafia was revealed.

~We had to make a choice~
Souvenier shopping for our friends and family or go set stalk for the last day if WFE filming in Piru.

Two of went to set....

 

And three went shopping and Hollywood sight seeing!


The Inception premier was being set up for later this evening.




I could def handle seeing sexy Leo on the black carpet this evening!

Wait... nevermind! Sorry Leo, but we're going to see Sam Bradley tonight!
WOOHOO!

But until then, while some of us were being tourists, looking at Ogres

Two of us were in search of what I am truly beginning to believe to be a mythical creature ...
a Yeti...so to speak!

People claim to have seen him. They have pictures of him. He's been spotted all over town but I have yet to lay my own eyes on him. He is elusive and continues to be just outside of my reach!
Maybe he is like bigfoot... or loch ness... a myth... a legend.

And what better way to find out...

Back to the dirt and artichokes!
Oh the things we do for this man.

Once on set, "Scion" and "Diver" were VERY helpful.
I would love to tell you what they told us but... I made a promise and I never break a promise!

It was a long hot day,
but even sitting around in a Kia, staring at artichokes all day, is fun when you're doing it with your bestie!

Five hours later, it happened again! Even with all our insider knowledge and security tips...
we watched his black SUV fly around the corner and out of sight... again without so much as a wave.  

That's three times Rob! Three times! GRRR!!

BUT... as we wiped our tears and began our journey back to Hollywood, to hopefully catch the same concert HHH was in such a hurry to get to... we rounded a corner and LOW & BEHOLD...
who was in the car right in front of us? Mr. HHH himself! 
Again and again, so close yet still so far.
*sigh*

We may or may not have followed him almost all the way back to LA...
purely by chance of course, because we happened to be headed to the same area.


In hind sight, I probably should have just rear ended him so he would have had no choice but to pull over.
But I think that would have put me right over the edge from fangirl to psycho stalker, dontcha' ya' think?

Once we were back in LA it was time to meet up with our besties at Hotel Cafe to see Sam Bradley... and hopefully HHH as well!

If you've never been to the Hotel Cafe... the whole bar is about the size of my living room, there are about four tables right in the front and it's hot as hell in that place.

Sam's puts on an amazing show though! If you've never seen him live... you definitely need to change that!
  


As we were dancing and singing along to the music. We heard this very familiar laugh come from a thin black curtain to the side of the stage.

I'd know this laugh anywhere!

COULD IT BE????

ARE WE REALLY STANDING LESS THAN 3 FEET AWAY FROM ...
 

WITH NOTHING BETWEEN US BUT A THIN BLACK CURTAIN!!!
 

Now, this is the point that I started chanting... 
if you tackle him you will go to jail... if you tackle him you will  go to jail!

As Sam closed the show and the crowd clapped and yelled for a great preformance,
A security guy started telling the all of us standing next to the curtain that we had to move back.

Was he really going to come out? OMG!!!
Now, this is the point that I was starting to have problems breathing.

Sure enough, the curtain opens and a line of sexy Brit's start making their way
through the bar to the green room!

First in line was TomStu... (did I mention that he is much better looking in person)
and then everything went blurry and all I could see was the LB hat with my own piece of heaven underneath it! He was truly fucking beautiful!

Now, this is the part where I totally stopped breathing!
It felt like all the air had been completely sucked from the room.

He looked just like this...LB hat, white t-shirt, black pants...
(minus the jacket and minus the "I hate papparrazi" scowl but you get it!)

He walked with his head down, through the crowd. He looked up once or twice and made eye contact with a few people he seemed to recognize. I saw the smirk! I saw the smirk! It was everything I ever dreamed it could be. But just as soon as it appeared it was was gone.
He was gone!
 He disappeared behind a closed door and it was over.

I don't know how long we stood there speechless with the realization of
"WE JUST SAW HIM!"
banging around in our heads.

I must say that I thought it was VERY COOL that no one in the crowd approached him or tried to take pics. The entire room just let him walk by casually with his buddies! It was amazing.

A few moments later that same security dude reappeared yelling at all of us to clear the room. We were all herded into an even smaller bar area (if you can beleive that), so the "band" could have the room.
Damn, you have no idea how bad I wanted to be in that room!

Although we didn't get an autograph or a picture with HHH, it continued to be a great night.

We met Shelly, or is it Stella?
(there's some odd name confusion going on there... we really need to clearthat up)
She runs the fan facebook site for Sam, Bobby and Marcus!
She was so sweet and she loved Brina!
Check out her FB Page "Sam Bradley-On the Road"!

She called us "virgins"... (milk-a-who??)
because it was our first time at one of Sam's shows!


We did a meet and greet with Sam
(who I might add, remembered talking to us at Bobby's show...score!)


 

Sam and his band are so sweet! They were all very charming and so funny!



We chatted with Dustin, the Brit Pack "Beer Bitch"
(his words not mine)
I prefer to call him "Smokey" (LMAO)
He was an interesting guy to say the least!
There's a lot more to this part of the story but I think it best to let it go...for now! *wink*

A certain producer that one of the TwiMafia besties has been chattin' up online was in attendance as well.
When he got ready to leave, we walked him out and were bombarded with papz

No wonder celebs hate that shit! I was seeing spots for an hour!

Sometime after midnight, we saw the front of the bar light up like a fuckin' 4th of July fireworks show
caused by a full blown papz camera assault
and we knew Rob had left the building!
*sigh*

Our last night in LA was an amazing!
One of us had a bit too much jager. One of us didn't see HHH because they were busy chatting up another celeb. Some of met new friends... thanks to a mouthy little skank that nearly got eliminated by the TwiMafia. Five us of crammed into a cab for four and rode all the way home with a drunk-ass lying across our laps in the back seat.

At the end of the day it was
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!

...and topped off by 1:00am
and that's all that matters!
'cuz that's how the TwiMafia rolls!

 Now, this is the part where I tell you to go to the comments section and check out PurpleBrina's
"Funny things said/heard on Day...."

But due to  LARGE amounts and Jager and the Robsession of two memebers that caused our group to be seperated on this day.... it just didn't happen.

But I will tell you MY favorite thing said of the day....
"EVERYONE LOVES ME!"
