Help make a little girl’s birthday the BEST!

Many of you have already seen the really cute video of Tom Felton hugging a young fan at the very end of the Toronto Q&A. Watch it here, at the 8 minute mark:

You can’t hear everything very well, but it goes something like this:

Girl: Can I have hug?

Tom: Well, [the event organizers] told me I need to move things along and if people ask something like that, I have to say no. But… YES goddamnit, YES!

Then he jumps off the stage and gives her a hug. It’s, like, the cutest thing ever.

So, earlier tonight, that little girl’s dad (@TMLfan1967) sent a tweet to me, and said the girl’s birthday was coming up, and that he was trying to find a better picture of the hug so he could give it to the girl for her 11th birthday. HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!

@feltbeats hi. Sorry to bother you but wondering if you might be able to help me out? Tom recently did a q&a in Toronto.

@feltbeats My daughter was lucky enough to get a hug from Tom at the end. Trying to find a picture of it for her 11th b-day next week.

@feltbeats wondering if you any of your followers were able to snap a pic? Would mean the world to her. She us still grinning like crazy.

So, does anyone have a better picture of this, or a better video from which I can do a screen shot? I (and this little girl) will be forever grateful! =)

Please help us in any way you can! Thank you! =)

PS If you are the girl in the video, please do not read this post, because it is a surprise! Thank you.

UPDATE: Thanks to Miss_Lion_Heart and GwahFace on YouTube, we have this better video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsHKKD6MtDc which yielded these decent photos:

Thanks Miss_Lion_Heart! Anyone got even better? =)

Tom Felton: Red Bull gives you STRINGS!

Thanks to my very best friend, @masterofmystery, we have these new photos of Tom Felton, Red Bull and guitar in hand, walking through Toronto.

There are a few more pics here if you want to see ’em.


Tom Felton: Music Man


Red Bull gives you wings!

Thanks to Tick Tock for helping me come up with a headline that references both the Red Bull and the guitar. It took us like 5 hours, but it was worth it, RIGHT????

Tom Felton Day 3, Q&A plus fan video

First, you must watch this really cute fan video made by @fullhoney1 and her sister. It is a well-made video and really fun watching them go through the whole Expo, going to all of his events (every one!). You can see them getting in trouble multiple times for filming when they’re not supposed to, but they cleverly talks their way out of it every time. =) Very Slytherin!

And then, thanks to @snitchseeker and aeolianesque and loonyllamasquared on YouTube, we have a video of Tom’s Q&A session.

And, here is a summary of fun quotes from Snitchseeker. Thanks lovlies!

• Tom Felton explained that the Harry Potter films were shot in England at the request of J.K. Rowling; he himself was glad for it as it boosted the filming industry in the UK.
• Tom joked that with the end of the Harry Potter films that he was depressed and randomly casting enchantments in an empty room. He seriously stated that he was lucky to be a part of it, and appreciated it more as time goes on.
• Tom said that he seemed to make baby cry from playing villains, though joked about that. He takes all the fan reaction as nothing but a compliment as he considers his portrayals of terrible characters as convincing.
• Tom said his first audition was with Emma Watson out of the Harry Potter cast; he said Rupert Grint was larger than life and impressive; and Daniel Radcliffe was hugely and ’10 going on 26′ years old.
• Tom was coy on ever collaborating with Harry Potter costar Matthew Lewis music-wise, as they both are musical in real life. He praised Matt’s work as Neville especially in Deathly Hallows: Part 2.
• Tom ‘certainly hopes’ to be at the celebration of the Harry Potter films at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando this November, and even mentioned that he was recently asked by the officials to attend. We will have more on that as it is released.
• Tom commented on how uncomfortable it was to film Quidditch scenes for the films, as sitting on the broomstick poles was a pain in the posterior and other places.
• Tom noted that James and Oliver Phelps, Matthew Lewis, and Daniel Radcliffe were big pranksters on the Harry Potter; Dan in their earlier production days programmed Tom’s cellular phone to read only in Turkish (something Dan also did to Robbie Coltrane’s phone).
• Tom said that he looked up to Dan and Jason Isaacs as inspirations, as well as various crew members on set.
• On the famous hug between Draco and Voldemort on the grounds of Hogwarts in Deathly Hallows: Part 2: of the 25 takes shot of Draco’s move from good to bad side, he said that the hug happened in ONE take only, and that ended up being the one shown on screen. The hug was not in the script, and entirely Ralph Fiennes’ idea.
• Tom admitted he’s never been star-struck by another celebrity or actor, but found Alan Rickman intimidating.
• Tom commented on his bemusement and surprise at Draco being put in a relationship with various other Harry Potter actors, and noted Drarry, Dramione, and oddly enough Drapple (Draco with an apple). He commented on the now-famous manipulated photo of him and Dan as Harry, and that in fact that never took place (at least not photographed).
