   My cousin & I got there
   early... around 5PM, so
   I got a chance to take a
   few pictures.
-First one: in front of the academy building of the premiere.
-Second one: on the infamous red carpet with bright spotlights.
-Third one: with a movie poster another fan brought.
   Reporters and other people started to
   arrive for the event.  The security got
   ready for the fan-frenzy with the
   arrival of the stars!!!

   Reporters got in their assigned places
   to get ready to take pictures and
   interview the celebrities.
   CoCo was one of the 1st ones to arrive.
   She walked down the red carpet slowly
   posing for pictures and stopping for
   interviews.  She was at the reporter
   right before our space when her
   publicist whispered something to her,
   and she was back to the front again,
   where some reporters missed her the
   first time.  Then when she made her
   way back towards us, she passed us
   again to talk to the Asian press.  We
   were about to die!
   Michelle Yeoh being interviewed by
    ABC and TVB-S.

   
Note: Michelle & CoCo were so
   excited to see one another.  They had
   a rather long conversation.  I could
   hear everything they were saying, but
   I forced myself to block it out so I
   wouldn't intrude on their private
   conversation.
   Turns out that Ang Lee, the director
   of
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
   was the big talk of the night.  Here, he
   is talking to... everyone!

   All the reporters gathered around
   when he arrived.  They all wanted to
   talk to him about this film rumored
   to be the "best martial arts film ever."
   We almost didn't get to talk to CoCo.
   Our reporter friend, "B" could see how
   disappointed we felt, so he called out
   to her to come sign our CDs.

   I talked to her for a little bit and she
   remembered my friend who had done
   backup vocals for one of her concerts.
   She signed the pictures we took the
   last time I met her and of course my
  
CD covers.

   The movie premiere was about to
   begin, so I asked if she could take a
   picture real quick.  I, so kindly(!), let
   my cousin take it with her because,
   well... he's a freaky fan!  So if you
