Decided on a whim to check out the Steel City Con on Saturday morning.
I've always loved Molly Ringwald, so a few friends and I headed over to see if we could clap eyes on her. It was PACKED, and $50 a ticket seemed steep. Oh well. C'est la vie aujord 'hui.
Here are my thoughts
Everyone from The Breakfast Club was there except for Estevez, and they all look pretty good. Anthony Michael Hall was up and about, hugging everyone who got a picture. Ally Sheedy seemed more aloof, Ringwald was somewhere in the middle.
The 90210 people were incredibly popular. They had a roundtable discussion in a big tent in the parking lot (nicer than it sounds) that was packed. I stood in the back and listened a bit, and the fans went apeshit every time someone talked. Tori Spelling also seemed to be having a pretty good time., laughing and talking with everyone. It was good to see Shannen Doherty up and about. Hope she got a good amount of cash.
Rosie O'Donnell and Geena Davis were both there, so charmingly enough, there were a lot of young girls dressed up as Rockford Peaches roaming around. Very cute.
Smallest lines (not to be mean) were Heather Graham and DL legend Debra Messing. At one point, they announced "Debra Messing will be leaving at 4:00, so get in line now!" That helped her a bit, but not much.
Susan Sarandon was the only celebrity not out in the open. She had her own little curtain box shielding her from the hoi polloi. That tracked.
Ernie Hudson also had a huge line all day. Again, lots of kids in Ghostbusters jumpsuits. Cute. Ad trust me, he can still get it if he wants it. A very attractive man, even up close. (Passed by him as he was being escorted somewhere)
Ian Ziering is still pretty attractive as well.
Have to say... I'd go again. The people watching is insane.
