The Hunger Games red carpet draws celebrities and hyperventilating teens
The Hunger Games red carpet draws celebrities and hyperventilating teens
Yesterday afternoon, at the Scotiabank Theatre, Liam Hemsworth, Josh Hutcherson and Alexander Ludwig walked the red carpet for the premiere of The Hunger Games. Swarms of teenage girls and boys came with books, illustrated movie guides, cameras, Sharpies and notepads, in hopes that maybe one of the heartthrobs from the film would scrawl a signature, or touch their hand. One young lady was pushed to a space behind the media, and began to hyperventilate and then freak out because she believed the cameras were blocking her right to stand where she should stand. We saw many smiling faces (not hers, obviously), and an enthusiastic Hemsworth, Hutcherson and Ludwig who graciously stood for photos with fans and scribbled as many signatures as they possible could.
