Movie Premiere: Love Matters

Okay! Today (Or rather, yesterday) was the movie premiere of Jack Neo's new film: Love Matters and I was lucky enough to get invited by Yong Wei few weeks ago to the premiere with him! Which means I get to meet our local celebrities!

So yesterday was the day. Yong Wei and I met up in Serangoon MRT. We were supposed to meet there on 7pm as planned but we were both late and ended up in the train only at 8.10pm (If I didn't recall wrongly).


When we reached Vivo City, we headed to the theatre immediately and we got the ticket from the guys who are all from www(Dot)omy(Dot)sg, and went to a gift shop. Yong Wei wanted to buy a birthday card for Jack Neo as his birthday is coming (I think...).

YW and well... Half of me XD

Here are the tickets!

And here are some pictures of the card that he had bought. I didn't want to be a part of it as I personally, don't really like Jack Neo that much (But I like his work) so I didn't pay for the card but regardless of that, Yong Wei wrote my name in it.

And you know what's so funny about this card? Yong Wei wrote Happy 38th Birthday in the card when he HAD absolutely no clue what is Jack's age! But what the heck, we just laughed it off and headed back to the premiere, where the red carpets are laid for the movie's casts arrival.

The Host, Chen Jian Bin (Marcus Chin), is addressing the audience and reporters. I'm quite amazed by the absence of Mark Lee as these 2 guys usually host shows and events together.

A picture of Yong Wei with Richard Low. Only half of Yong Wei's face was taken because I was focusing too much on Richard haha.

Okay, Jack Neo has arrived! Yong Wei gave him the card and took a photo with him! Too bad I can't join them, I had to take the picture for them...

After the director (Jack) and the casts came, everyone started heading inside, to the theatre. I thought we were gonna start watching the film already but before we got into the theatre (That's the place where movies are played right?), there was a buffet just outside it. People were restricted from going into theatre as it is not opened yet. But hey, since no one was allowed to go in, everyone (Even celebrities!) stayed around and socialized as they take some of the food that were displayed. Yong Wei and I didn't eat much though...

They're mostly desserts but there are chickens drumsticks too.

YW with a plate of fruit tarts.

YW then started standing around like a bouncer which made me come up with an idea to make him look more like one. Stand in front of the entrance to the theatre!

YW with Huang Bi Ren.

Me with Michelle Tay! Funny person haha.
Photobucket

Me with Jeanette Au (Ou Xuan)! Woo! Even though its blurry, I still can't believe how lucky I was to actually see her there and take a picture with her!

After the theatre is opened for everyone, we headed in.
Photobucket

And we found 2 familiar faces! The old female actresses of the Jteam! Ya Min and Jing Jing!
Photobucket

We got to our seats and what do you know? We're seated right in the middle! Good place to take some pictures haha. Then we got our goody bags and guess what we've got? 'New Moon Brand' Rice and cooking oil! LOL

The hosts, Marcus and a radio DJ from Malaysia, came down to address the audience!

The Whole cast were then, invited down to give a speech.

What do you know? Huang Bi Ren is just sitting behind us! (Well, not directly behind...)

The movie then started. Got to say, its a nice film. I found myself smiling on the first half of the show and ended up laughing on the other half. Don't want to talk much about it as I might spill some spoilers! But there is something that I want to say and that is, sadly... Not all of the footage that had appeared in the trailer were actually shown in the movie itself...

Anyway, the movie ended and we headed to the toilet.

Later then, we noticed that the last train will be leaving soon and we ran down the station and through a couple of escalators before we got to the train. Luckily for us, we made it. We chat on a train for awhile and YW shared some of his stories on how he had to take a cab to get home as he missed the last train and bus. He also mentioned that he had actually gotten a free ride by telling a taxi driver that he had no money and had to get home... Sounds like a tall tale to me...

We parted when I got to my stop on the train and took a bus home. I thought I missed my last bus! Luckily for me, I think the bus I took was the last one for the day! I took some pictures on my way home as my friends told me before, that the path which leads to my home is very creepy.

So, are you afraid of the dark...?

Nah, just playing with ya... Not scary? I don't care! Lol
Photobucket

Just got off the elevator! Reaching home soon!
Photobucket

Home Sweet Home! Damn! I got to get rid of all those zits and scars...
Photobucket

Anyway, YW and I took a picture with Henry Thia (Or Hui-ge), the main cast of the movie, but the picture is not available yet. Will put it up soon!

Right now, I'm currently preparing to buy a birthday gift for my twin brother heh heh. The item that I'm gonna get for him is actually something that I've always been wanting to give him since last year (No gay thoughts please).

More will be revealed after I give him his present on 12 Feb! (Or maybe earlier... I dunno!)
