Omg those ARE the biggest frogs I have ever seen!!!

Maybe the car was full so she couldn't fit them in and she didn't want to turn down a gift?

 

Anyways good job on the signs and frogs!!! Have fun! Can't wait to hear the reviews!

[djs31982]

Friend of mine called and let me hear taking chances...she sounded awesome!!! He's also been sending me pics thru his cell

[SuperLove4Celine]

She should have performed "The Power Of The Dream" tonight. It would have fit so perfectly.

My girl Celine was ON tonight!!! She was the bomb!!!!

 

I was so depressed when I left the Kansas City show because I didn't want it to be over. I decided right then and there that I was gonna come to Atlanta. Managed to get section 9 row B right next to the catwalk!!! I could not have been happier. Between the two shows, Atlanta was definitely ON! Originally I had front row seats but I was still pleased with where I was. The people in front of me complained a whole lot because they were saying they were "under the stage" (They had front row seats). They were trying to move. Once Celine came out and was right in front of them, they didn't say too much more, except for one lady who never smiled (she was mad about her seat). Eventually Patrick came through and moved one couple. The others stayed where they were.

 

Man oh man! THis show was hot! Hot! hot! Celine looke my way a couple of times! She even winked! During "My Love", right at the big pause, everyone started applauding and cheering her and she couldn't sing because she was so overwhelmed by the response. She sat right in front of us. She was soooo close!!!

 

It was just totally awesome! If I could go to another show, I would but I can't afford it. I drove nine hours to Kansas City and five hours to Atlanta. Both trips were worth it. It was definitely money well spent!!! I could go on and on and on. I took some pictures. I'll load them when I get home.

 

I hope all of you who had an opportunity to experience tonight had as great an experience as I did. There was definitely more energy and just AHHHHH! It was awesome! Can you tell I'm still excited?

[CellyDee87]

[Libeck528]

Omg where are they???!?!?!?!!? Come on come on!!!

[Chellbie]

HERE WE ARE HERE WE ARE!??! okay, this is going to be realllly long. Elisa, Kimberly, Brittany, Katelyn and I are in the hotel room right now as I type trying to all put this review together. Tim went home along with Meghan =( But we all had sooo much fun together!

 

We met up around 1 or 2 and started brainstorming for the banners! We made the small one first which was the vinal one which we wanted in the dressing room. We put all of our pictures on it too with a little message from each of us! Then we got Mr. Whispers ready! We decided not to sign him beacuse he was just too cute and fuzzy! but he had a card around his neck and we went and took a group picture (the one you see above) and inserted it with his neck card. This is what his card said:

 

Our Dearest Celine, Meet Mr. Whispers- he is yours to keep. We understand that touring the world and singing night from night always sacrificing time isnt the easiest thing to do. And for that, we want you to always have personal reminder of the deep unconditional love for you that each of us carry so deep down in our hearts. You represent kindnes, honesty, beacuty, innosence, and sencerity with such himanity in all you do. For that whenever you start to miss the stage or feel down Mr. Whispers is here to tell you sweet love stories from loving fans to warm your heart. Please, never underestimate the place you have in each of our hearts. We will see you through!

Overflowing with love,

Your Atlanta, GA fans =)

 

it was adorable. After this we made the big big banner which was really quick and simple (we were running out of time!) so we loaded everything up into our arms and crammed into the elevator. ... yes, everyone was staring pretty bad lol.

 

So we went to where people were going in for the hot sound package and met a really nice phillips arena officer named Kip. He had no idea what he was doing lol.. and truly just flirted with Britt the whole time! LOL. BUT he led us in the perfect direction of where Celine would be going into and assured us that it was a public entrance so they couldnt turn us away. Where he pointed to us is EXACTLY where I saw everything happening last night with the trucks tooo!! So we knew we were right!

 

We went to the 'Media Entrance' and Britt just popped her head in and asked if we were in the right place lol. They were preparing the food for everyone! He was super nice too and we asked where Celine would be coming in at and he said he couldnt tell us.. soooo i asked where she WOULDNT be coming in at and he said right there! LoL. so he pointed us down the way and said we had to stay on the inside of the gate =( But we were just so psyched to be in the right place! We only had to wait for about 30 minutes for her to get there once we got behind the gate! AND low and behold it started snowing. It was BEAUTIFUL! The guys that were managing the gate that we were behind def. thought we were all crazy! Then we saw MICHEL!!

 

We yelled his name and he completely ignored us. I guess he wasnt ready to deal iwth that but he also looked anxious. We heard the police escort down the way and KNEW she was coming! We got it on video but ofcourse youtube wont upload fast enough. 1, 2, and then 3 black SUV's pulled into a dock entrance and that was it. Infact, you can probably hear it on the video "so thats it?" lol.. we almost left but then we spotted Patrick.. just chillen on his phone! So we waited patiently like the little stalkers we were for him to get off. THEN BEGGED him to take Mr. Whispers and the vinyl banner back to Celine! HE was so gracious and told us Celine would FREAK when she saw that frog! =) We took a picture with him and then skipped our little happy butts to go get ready for show time!

[CellyDee87]

[stevethefan]

And then...

[Chellbie]

NOW>>> on to the show- SOOO

Brittany was with us (the red headed girl who met Celine on Oprah) and she had a meet and greet tonight! ahhhhh! She had a wonderfully special gift for Celine: a pair of frog panties and bra set! WOOO HOO! She said Celine just said ''oooooh!" lol. BUT they scheduled WAAY too many people for the meet and greet (there were about 25 people back there) that autographs weren't even allowed! INFACT, Gordy Brown went off stage at 8:35 and Celine didnt show up for a meet and greet til about 8:40! GEEEZ! SO in and out they went! =( Still Britt said she was ADORABLE!

 

Among us all, we had floor seats, lower level, and by the catwalk.

 

I can BARELY find the words to tell you how absolutely amazing this show was. I really feel like our banner and frog got her PUMPED! She came out so peppy!

 

Now, Kim and I had to signs and as soon as Celine came out we jumped up with them and she pointed RIGHT to us! BUT the old hags behind us grabbed our shirts and yanked us down yelling and telling us not to stand and that we couldnt hold signs. I thought she would rape me she was so rough. It REALLY put us in a pissy moodf or the beginning of the show and we were already trying to map a way to get away from them! BUT we were RIGHT there on the My Love side and we decided to stick it out to get that great shot!

 

So on went the show. it was beautifuL! she was smiling and having to put her smile away jsut to be able to talk if you can imagine.

 

barnev recognized us (i gues from facebbook) and winked and waved at us. He laughed at how much we were freaking out in the crowd. It was WAAAAY cool to have a personal connection with someone on stage!

 

So the BEST part was My Love... she was loving the crowd already and took the time to say how much it really meant to her and the crew that we were all so lively! She started explaining My Love's background and the chance arose for us to yell out "MY LOVE!" So , kimbo and i were sitting next to each other and YELLED AT THE TOP OF OUR LUNGS. We were so close we probably didnt need to but all our forum friends said afterwards that they KNEW it was us as soon as they heard it! Celine made SUCH a cute face like "wow, yeah! lol" and then looked over towards us and said "yeah, thats it" and the crowd started laughing!

 

she continued the song but towards the end she pauses and the crowd goes NUTTTS! I mean, BONKERS! High pitched screams, whistles..everything and she just cant stop smiling. She looked like she was going to cry because of how overwhelming it was! it took forever to get back in and you cant hear ANYTHING but the crowd! She motions back to Mego to cue the musicand she started to finish the song. You still could barely hear her beacuse of the crowd! then at the end.. standing ovation and more screams: she fell straight back onto the stage and just layed there with so much emotion! Then she got up and said "I wish you alll could have been in the studio with me while recording that song because you are all such an inspiration!" awwwwwwwwwww! She asked what we were doing tomorrow night because it was so fun she wanted to come back! LOL.

 

The rest of the show was soo amazing. Little quirky things like slapping the dancers' butts and being goofy - at one point she hit a totally random high note and made a face afterwards like "okay, calm down celine" lol.. I dont knwo what kind of high she was on but she was DEF. feeding off our energy..

[Shesings2me]

Ok ladies, Mary and I are waiting too....come on we want the whole story complete with smells, LOL!!

 

Don't worry people, there's more coming....
