Title: Johnny's left Wisconsin
Karen - March 21, 2008 04:39 AM (GMT)
Just like Elvis??? Johnny's left Wisconsin!
These are bits of posts that were made tonight on Rod's blog. Sounds like last night there was an over anxious girl and security tightened up a bit. Be sure to go
here to read more info! Thanks to everyone on the blog!

| yep i drove down this afternoon and went up to the house. talked to his driver for a bit and some nice neighbors. They pulled the suv around and i headed to base camp. Crowd was thick and he came down the line to pose for pics. he was close at first then some girls started screaming and he backed up a bit. from what i heard from some people there he got jumped on by a girl yesterday so security was a lil tighter and of course the huge number of people. |

| Just wanted to say that I am on cloud nine!!! As Johnny was leaving tonight in his SUV, I reached out my hand and he grabbed it and shook it. I was holding my 14 month old.... Johnny walked the entire block giving plenty of photo ops. My 8 year old got a pretty good shot. He then came down to the end where I was standing. When they moved the barricades for the cars to leave I moved back and to the side and happened to be on the correct side. I saw him in the same place earlier in the day and he was on the other side of the car. I had regretted not sticking out my hand after seeing the high five he gave earlier. Glad I thought of it the second time and I can still hardly contain myself!! |

I just read about this over at his blog--I was wondering about that girl that supposedly jumped on Johnny? Glad he's on his way to LA though as I'm sure the kids are excited about Easter and would want him there.
So did they shoot the "love scene" tonight at that house on the hill?

Good question! ;)

I really hate to hear that someone tried to jump on Johnny. I was afraid something like this would happen and they would tighten security. Johnny is so good to his fans and I'm afraid that if more instances like this occurs, he will be forced not to come over and pose or sign autographs anymore. Let's hope everyone can keep their cool from here on in.

I agree Terry---it seems like most of the fans were behaving and being courteous---it's a shame that one person feels they don't need to follow the plan and then possibly ruins it for others. Yes, let's hope that he'll still have access to the fans in the future weeks of filming.

It breaks my heart to hear that things might have started to get out of hand. :(
I hope this doesnt ruin it for others.
I hope Johnny enjoys his weekend and gets some rest. :)

That is great, that he gets to go home to Van and the kiddies! I am wondering if he will be there long enough for the Nick Kids Choice Awards. :rolleyes:

I received an email from his Tuesday autograph signing that went something line this.
We all stood in line, when a person got the the front Johnny would make eye contact, LOOK at you, acknowledge you, listen to what you would way, thanking you for coming and sign.

It is overwhleming when you arefinally face to face with Johnny. While most of us can contain our excitement and show respect and restraint for Johnny. There are a few younger fans who are so excited they lose control. It is a pity for Johnny and for all the others waiitng and hoping to spend a moment in time with him. I always get upset when I see or hear girls or women screaming in his face! Hope everyone waiting were able tohet photos and meet with ihm.
Glad he will be with his Children for Easter,
I am happy he is on the way back to LA

Thanks so much for sharing your blog with us Grinder! All of us that can't be there have been living vicariously thought it! :)
It's also heart warming to hear how kind and understanding Johnny is with his fans!

All it takes is one person to goof it up for everyone else. It seemed like an incident like this happened while he was signing autographs before/after filming Letterman. Johnny is such a gracious man to stand out there and have interaction with admirers. Alot of celebs just don't take the time for us. Johnny is a wonderful and unique person and I would hate to see him have to change his ways because of incidences like the one in Wisconsin and New York.

BEFORE YOU ALL FREAK OUT ON ME, THIS IS A JOKE.
I am Kathy (the above arrested person), and there is a website where you can make up fake articles. I thought my sister would get a kick out of this, and then I thought maybe you would all understand the URGE to do something like this.
But of course, restraint, like patience, is a virtue. So please laugh with me, OK?

OK I freaked.

I have gotten email from site called spooky ( I think ) now I do not even open them.
I do not think make up stories about Johnny are cute, there is so much bad press it only take one mistake to cause alot of trouble.
Keep it real , I still hope to get that autograph or high five.
Love you, JDR

Re: over-excited fan who jumped on Johnny~
You know, sooner or later, some nincompoop always spoils it for the rest of us.
I try to have faith in people, but some of them insist on making it difficult.

"BEFORE YOU ALL FREAK OUT ON ME, THIS IS A JOKE. "
i was about to make a not so nice comment until i read that it was a joke - so, okay - :)
however, it is shame the way some people react to johnny (like jumping on him) ~ i'd like to think it's mostly young girls, but i'm afraid it can be older women too....to me that is the REAL sad part.

I absolutely agree. It's sad that some people really do that stuff...so I'm glad this was just a joke...
I think some people just kinda start forgetting how they should behave once they meet their idol. Problem is that such behaviour can really spoil the whole experience for other people too. And also I feel so sorry for Johnny (or any other celeb that has to experience something like it), 'cause after all they take their time to be with their admirers and then some of them just make the whole event a sad experience. I'm sure this is also quite frightening. I'd imagine if I was a a famous actress and would go to greet my admirers and some guy would all of a sudden grab me I'd be in total shock. So yeah it's sad that such stuff happens. It's the same as stakers...I don't get that either.
Minxie - March 22, 2008 03:33 PM (GMT)
My perception of Johnny is that he really doesnt understand why people are so enthralled with him. He sees himself as just a regular guy with a weird job. I remember reading an interview where Lily-Rose asked him why everyone wanted to take his picture and he replied, "I don't know."
It must be very scary and intimidating for him to have large crowds around him... screaming and grabbing at him. I am happy to see that he doesnt let a few uncontrollable fans send him into seclusion.
Karen - March 22, 2008 07:18 PM (GMT)
He's used to it and he's tough. Still, he has to be cautious of his surroundings. That's why Jerry is there and runs interference for him, scouts out the area before Johnny's arrival at locations and public places and events. Never underestimate to what lengths Jerry will go to, to keep his boss safe. Johnny knows the dangers, but he won't hide away and won't run. He keeps giving us, his fans, chances to be around him.

Ahh!! You had me going too!!
You know I think for the most part most of Johnny's "fans" (eww) know enough about him to not act stupid and rude.. He is just a kind.. gentle.. caring soul and he seems to bring out the best in most people.. course there are some that just never learn.
I don't know how he does deal with it when the screaming is so loud you can't hear yourself think! But God bless him.. he is an angel that's for sure
