I shall try and keep you all as updated as possible about Kate's premiere adventures tonight! She is keeping in contact via mobile phone and maybe later
even e-mail too!
Kate is now in Sydney. She arrived this morning (it's Tuesday afternoon here in Oz at the moment!) and she's been to George Street. It's totally blocked off and all set up for the massive premiere! She said that the fan area next to the red carpet is huge and it's going to be a total mosh pit. She said there's not much chance of getting a good spot in the throng of people and, even if she did, she wouldn't be able to get out to actually walk down the red carpet! So she's just going to get there a bit early and try and walk really slowly down the carpet, lol. The red carpet walking starts at 6:30pm and the movie itself starts at 7:30pm (Sydney time). And Kate has been invited to drinks afterwards too! It's all very exciting!!! I am living the adventure from afar, as I was invited to the premiere too, but couldn't go Stay tuned for more updates tonight!

I'm contemplating whether I should stay up and watch the red carpet stuff or sleep, lol, I think I'll go with the latter since I have to wake up at
like 6am tomorrow.

Fantastic coverage of the Sydney premiere on Channel Nine's A Current Affair - they devoted the entire 30 minute show to it, with crosses to the Darwin and
Bowen premieres.
Nicole is a goddess. |

WOW! The A Current Affair coverage was fantastic! You really got a feel for what it was like to be there. And Hugh and Baz looked DAMN HOT! LOL!
Hopefully the footage will appear online at some stafe so everyone can watch... Meanwhile, an update: Kate phone me around 6pm her time saying she was on her way to the premiere venue and that she was going to pick up the tix then go inside. She said she'd call/text me when she got inside, but I haven't heard from her since! I expect she got ushered straight in! LOL! However, it is now just after 8pm her time, and that means that the movie has started. Right now, she should be sitting inside one of the cinemas watching THE FILM! I expect she will be in touch afterwards. The movie is nearly 3 hours long, and then there'll be drinks, so I'm not sure how long it will be before she has a moment to contact me. I'm not expecting to hear anything until late tonight. If and when I do, I'll be sure to update right here! |

Okay, so it's now around midnight Sydney time and I still haven't heard back from Kate! LOL! I can only assume that they made her turn off her mobile
phone once she entered the cinema, and she is still inside at the drinks, mingling with everyone!

Oh my Baz! Kate just called me from the after party!
She's there right now and she said it's totally surreal! Unfortunately, it was also very loud and I could hardly understand a word she was saying! LOL! But I'm sure she said she met someone... I just couldn't make out who!!! She said she'll get online when she gets back to her hotel, so I shall leave it to her to tell her story. Stay tuned!
