And for all my friends and family living in Wales, he will be there nxt month in Cardiff for the Comic Con
And even nicer in person when I got to meet him and get his autograph!
He asked where I was from and I told him Wales. He then asked, "Where in Wales." I replied, "Llanelli." (thinking all the while to myself, yeah, like he knows my home town.)
Well, James's reply, "I love Llanelli, such a nice town."
I was dumbstruck Lol
He then said, Wales is a wonderful place with amazing music and singers!
He chatted about how hard it was for him to land the role of Damon Salvatore in Vampire Diaries.
How the long hours can take its toll and that the full cast including the prop men and catering
On the set of Vampire Diaries are like family.
How he eats organic, raw and non Gmo foods, and uses a Hyperbaric Chamber! Way to go Ian. No wonder he stays in great shape.
He talked about how we all can be kind to one another, even just walking down the street, even just a smile can make their day as we do not know what has happened to them that day.
His animals who he loves and told us about when he adopted a stray cat from the beach whilst filming the show, Lost.
Shame the Q&A went by too quickly.
But, alas off I went to queue to get my picture taken with Ian.
What more can I say other than ARGH! What a hug :) Lucky me.
I just wish my mug was younger and I got a kiss on the lips Lol
Whilst walking around, we came across some interesting Cosplay characters, the girl got really excited when they saw Anna and Elsa
Then to finish off my day I went to get Ian Sommerhalders autograph for my daughter Ashton, who lives in Wales.
Woohoo, here comes Ian Sommerhalder
Ian is chomping on healthy snacks
Looking right at me!
I was a little sneaky and had my skype on with my daughter Ashton so she could get to see Ian and for him to say Hi to her :) and that the picture he was signing was for Ashton. His reply, "You're a good parent to do that for your daughter." And I got a wink from Ian :)
He also asked Seren to show him her painted pretty red nails and said we have cute girls.
She went to cry x
This is the picture I had Ian sign for my daughter.
Lush or what!
Also, Ian's brother, Bob Sommerhalder, they have a company together building wonderful items for sale from reclaimed barnwood.
