*POF EXCLUSIVE* Red Carpet Premiere of Pirates Of the Caribbean: At World's End!!!
 


This past Saturday, thousands headed to Disneyland with one thing on their mind, VMK? Not this time. They were thinking about PIRATES! Disney kept it's tradition with it's past pirate films and had the red carpet premiere on Main St. at Disneyland. Yours truly was there to take part of this amazing event. My friends arrived at the park at 4:30 am (while I slept in to around 10 am) and got a spot on Main Street at the very front of the guard rails. It was the perfect spot to star gaze and enjoy the entertainment. The red carpet was filled with pirate characters that did acrobatics, played instruments, told jokes, and even walked on stilts. It was the perfect way to help pass the time on that hot day. As soon as 5 PM hit, the guests who paid $1500 (with proceeds going to the Make-A-Wish Foundation) to attend the event began their very own stroll down the carpet. We even saw some friends of ours that paid that outrageous price. For them, it was well worth the price to check out the movie before anyone else does and to hang out with the cast and other stars.

Since we were right up front at the guard rail, we had lots of opportunity to star gaze, get autographs, and even take pictures. Some of Hollywood's guest list included Kobe Bryant, Joey Fatone, Janice Dckinson, Tony Baxter, Leeza Gibbons, Apolo Ohno, Dave Winfield, Mark Curry, Martin Landau, Roy Disney (yes even him), Cuba Gooding Jr., Wilder Valeramma, Naomie Harris, Geoffrey Rush, Orlando Bloom, and yes, Johnny Depp. Click on the picture above to see the pictures we took from the event. I would also like to thank Dumbfounded, SpinMarty, and other non-VMK/Pirates Online members for saving me the awesome seats so I can take these pics. You guys rock! I hope you enjoy them. This is Smoop reporting live from the red carpet at Disneyland, admins, back to you!

Too funny...I watched the whole slideshow wondering what kind of picture(s) of Johnny you would have...thinking, "Surely there's a picture of him"..."Did s/he got shots of Johnny?? These pictures look like they're getting earlier and earlier in the day"..."What the heck??"...."Ohhhh....saved the best for last, gotcha!" Fun, fun! :)

Wow - it is almost like I was there - WAIT! I was :)

It was an awesome time and I thank smoop, dumbfounded and their friends for being willing to get there at 3:30 am to get a good spot! (I was asleep ;) )
