Heya! I went to the fashion show - itv2 programme, with George Lamb, who, of course (us being on a BB forum and all) is the host of BBLB (i don't count zezi as a "host")
Co presenters were Abbey Clancy and Michelle De Swarte (only just found out her name.. :P)
I woke up at 6am :( and then got ready, and me, my mum, my sister and my sisters boyfriend drove to colchester north and met up with lucy, julie and sophia at colchester north and we got the 7.03 train :P. We then travelled across London to Hammersmith and got to Riverside Studios at 9am where they said that it was postponed and we'd have to come back in 2 hours o_0
so we went to a shopping place in hammersmith and had breakfast in costa and looked round the shops which was alright
then we went back to the fashion show at 11 and the queue was HUGE.
we queued for absolutley aaaages [some "premier" tickets they were :P] and then EVENTUALLY got in, where we had to walk around a bit and then go to queue at ANOTHER area.
At about a bit past 1 we got into the studios and it was really amazing, I took a few pictures before this man told us what to do: like, when to clap, etc. I was quite glad I wasn't ovedressed as some people were in jeans .. and others were in complete prom dresses ;o. i was a nice medium :)

sozo bout poor quality.
Anyway after about 20 minutes [well, a slight exxageraition] the three hosts came out and did their ting. Then some tv man said "okay we want to take some shots behind the guy in the green t-shirt" which was EDDIE! mia's boyfriend
Eddie had already gone "GEORGE" every time he got his cues wrong so Mr. Lamb was like "are you george as well?" "NO I'M EDDIE! :D"
anyway, michelle de swartes grabbed me by the shoulders and started pulling faces and i was like "ahhh i'm confused" and then we ENDED UP BEHIND THEM WHEN THEY WERE SHOOTING
problem is i looked really bored :P
before they started shooting that big de swartes was being really nice and even let us touch her really cool jeans
and i was like "eddie, do you really fancy george THAT much?"
"me and george have a special bond. best buds"
-george lamb turns around: "The feeling's mutual, Eddie."
Later on, SOPHIE ELLIS-BEXTOR [my actual IDOL came on.] i was SO shocked. She looked a lot more.. human. and normal. Her interview was kind of boring but we got in good places for that too :P.
Then they announced Scouting for Girls were going to be playing at the end of the show and Julie was like "oh god.." but then they said for any Scouting for girls fans to come to the front or whatever, so we went to the front. even though none of us really like scouting for girls. then a man focussed on me for like 20 seconds
and it was really embarressing, and julie and lucy were laughing as i was grinning like an IDIOT as i didn't know what else to do!
Scouting for girls played their new song.. which is pretty much like all their records :P.

After the show was over we got to have pictures taken with George :lovedup:. Abbey dissapeared as soon as it was over.

shut up i know i look hideous :P
george lamb was SO nice and really funny :)
after that we shopped in primark and covent garden which was amazing, but that's not really to do with the fashion show.
right! now gossip:
George Lamb.. well i think you can tell i liked him ALOT. such a nice man, and whenever he got a thing wrong he'd pick it up straight away, and was happy to take photos with fans
Abbey Clancey .. completley incompetant, annoyed the whole audience by her constant retakes. "I GOT GUM, SOZZA." "OH I'VE SWALLOWED IT". she did more takes than any one put together :/. seemed very bored.
Michelle de Swarte really nice lady, who i'd really seen before. happy to talk to you and very nice
Sophie Ellis-Bextor seemed quite nice, her child is SOOOO cute. her husband was there too. alot smaller than i imagined, very tiny and SO pretty.
Scouting for Girls bit up themselves and looked quite bored
ohh and:
- the camera shot the guy playing the piano off scouting for girls AFTER the song
- after most outfits [which were hideous] all the presenters would be like "beautiful" and as soon as it was off-camera they were like "ergh that was disgusting"
but yeah!
look out for me and my fatness on 11th october. or maybe 14th. whenever :P
