Twilight Coverage in Tokyo: Day 1
Hi Guys!
Sorry for the late update. This post will have the contents of what we did in Day 1 at Tokyo.
We arrived yesterday at 5.30pm [Tokyo Time]. We were jet-lagged and tired. AND GUESS WHAT??!!!
We saw TAYLOR LAUTNER!!!! We were filling up our address for our stay in Tokyo and when we turned around, Maria thought the boy in front of us looked familiar. “Isn’t that Taylor?”, Maria asked. And for sure yes, it was definitely Mr. Lautner himself. He is tall and was wearing a black leather jacket with black jeans. He was much more fairer than we expected. His hair was like those pictures from VF.
He was queuing at the immigration line together with some people. [We later found out it was a representative from Summit and we think the other was his Dad.] Maria went up to him and this how the conversation went.
Maria: “Hi, Taylor.”
Taylor turns and looks at us. He smiles. He has the MOST BEAUTIFUL SMILE EVER with lovely teeth. Haiz…
Maria continues. “Welcome to Japan! I thought you were coming tomorrow?”
Taylor answered. “No… Not tomorrow.”
There were more words that Maria said but we can’t remember them. [SORRY] Those were the only words that we heard from him. After that we joined the immigration line. So Taylor was in front of us with the people that were queuing in between us. Since it was an immigration line, the queue was looong. The line went zig-zagged. So we managed to pass by him about 5 times. Every time we passed him he either looked up or he was talking to his dad. We felt very awkward and ‘paiseh‘ (embarrassed).. HEEESS..
We didn’t manage to take photos with him or ask for an autograph because we did not want to draw attention to him. And we think that its not allowed in the immigration line. Good thing we maintained professionalism as it took a lot of will power to suppress ‘THE FAN GIRL’ in us. HAHA.
From there, we went through the immigration checks and we saw people who were receiving Taylor and his party. They helped him with his luggage and all. We collected our luggage and went down to catch an Airport Limousine (which is actually a bus) to meet our friend in town who has kindly accomodated us during this trip. 
The journey took about 2 hours.
We headed to Roppongi Hills to meet our friend, Evelyn, at the Grand Hyatt Hotel. While waiting in the lobby… YOU GUYS KNOW WHO WE SAW??!!!
No.. not Leo… And not Matt either. HEHEHE…. Its the guy in the middle. That’s the Oscar-winning legendary director, Mr. Martin Scorsese! He has directed Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, Gangs of New York, The Aviator and most recently The Departed.
Me and Maria were sitting around in the lobby (by the way, the lobby was DAMN NICE..) when Maria noticed him. “Isn’t that Martin Scorsese?” Mr. Scorsese was wearing a black overcoat and he was shaking hands with a couple of people who were waiting for him at the lobby. Then he walked towards the taxi stand where a limo was waiting for him. He walked past us and we waved while Maria said “Hello!” to him. He smiled and he waved back at us too! It was a brief encounter and we didn’t want to bother him so we did not take a photo, but it was well-worth it since he noticed us. 
Thing is, I’ve realized I have managed to see more Hollywood stars right here in Tokyo than the other times that I have been to America. ITS PRETTY EXCITING!!!
Tune in back to this site in a couple of hours as we blog about our second day: THE ARRIVAL OF MR. PATTINSON.
Love,
AISHAH & MARIA.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
GREAT JOB AISHAH & MARIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

February 24, 2009 at 11:57 pm
OME! It’s just Day 1 and already unbelievable! Taylor and the Great Martin Scorsese himself! Bet you gals were too excited to get much sleep! Hats off to you for being so professional and restrained in the immigration line… Heh.
Thanks for bringing us the latest!
Can’t wait for Day 2′s entry too!
February 25, 2009 at 12:12 am
Yes, It’s just Day 1 and they got to meet Taylor and Martin Scorsese!
Great post you both! Thank you again for providing us every detail!!!
I’m sure Day 2 entry will be much more interesting and *more squealing will take place*
February 25, 2009 at 2:07 am
That was pretty interting! I want to say I definitely appreciate you guys supressing the “fan girl” and behaving…well…WELL! :p
February 25, 2009 at 2:41 am
Wow! All of the Twilight fan craziness aside… just being a major fan of film in general… I cannot imagine what an honor it is to run into Martin Scorsese! That man is a living legend. Running into him randomly at a hotel in Tokyo while going to see a Twilight thing… that’s like the coincidence of a lifetime!
February 25, 2009 at 4:16 am
I know right!!
There we were sitting at the lobby and when I saw him… I just stood up and pulled Aishah to stand … we were in the presence of greatness… and we just watched him.
And you know what happened next…
hehe I am dork I know!
He smile was awesome!
February 25, 2009 at 4:31 am

February 25, 2009 at 4:59 am

February 25, 2009 at 7:57 am
Yes, Kristen Stewart will be joining them too. It’s just that she has not arrived.
February 25, 2009 at 9:16 am
WoW!! You two met Taylor and THE Martin Scorsese! I nearly screamed reading it when i’m supposed to be working.:P Have lots of fun and pleease snap lots of pictures! =D
February 25, 2009 at 9:25 am
OOOOOOOOOOOH I’m so excited just reading all of this. I feel like I’m living vicariously through the both of you!
I do hope you’ll be able to talk to Rob and Kris. And Maybe Taylor will recognize you
MARTIN SCORSESE. Wow. You guys are lucky!
Glad you’re having a good time ;D
I’m sure it’s gonna be more fun in 2 days time! I just saw videos of Rob arriving at the airport, and MAN, it reminded me of the Beatles and the screams coming from the crowd when they saw them!
February 25, 2009 at 9:47 am
@ nezzi: He was not only adorable, but he is tall and good looking and that smile again.. *HAIZ*…
Errr… Nezzi, didn’t you already imprinted on him? You should know what….
February 25, 2009 at 10:27 am
Hey girls, do you know what hotel the actors are staying in while they are in Tokyo? I know the event is at Ebisu Garden Place. Thanks for the post, keep up the good work!:)
February 25, 2009 at 11:06 am
Omg! THANK YOU! I’m waiting for Mr.Pattinson report
February 25, 2009 at 11:47 am
@ Fan In Japan
We don’t know which hotel…and try not to know lest we would not be able to suppress ‘THE FANGIRL’ in us!
If that happened major covert serious stalking will take place..HAHAHA
All we know is that they are having special interviews with the various TV stations today. And WE HOPE that they would have time to go sightseeing as well. Since not many people recognized them here (except for the tourists!! ahah) they can move around freely.
It’ll be the first time ROBERT, KRISTEN AND TAYLOR will be together promoting Twilight before they go into production for ‘New Moon’ in March.
So unofficially in this Tokyo trip we are seeing the main cast of New Moon. It could may well be the first promotion for NEW MOON!!
February 25, 2009 at 11:55 am

Good luck w/the rest of the coverage. Can’t wait to see how it goes! 
February 25, 2009 at 2:18 pm
@ Laura: That banner with the airplane window was designed by Izzatee. The picture is not ours. She took it randomly somewhere from the web.

Hi there,
Im a Twilight Fan too. I’ll be attending the Red Carpet at Ebisu! Hope to see you and get to know you.
) I think aside from the Red Carpet at 4:30pm there is an exclusive fan meeting at 5:30-6pm. Are you guys attending the meeting or just the red carpet?

I am not sure about the fans meeting but definitely the Red Carpet! We’ve just bought the microphone at Bic Camera last night at Shibuya and its cool! A bit ex but totally worth it!
