3 more days you guys, my family can’t wait to see the movie with me!
Here’s another teaser video from Iron Man 3 titled “Air Force One Rescue.” Let me just give you 3 little words to remember when you see the movie that someone gave us before the premiere…
Barrel of Monkeys!
IRON MAN 3 releases in theaters on May 3rd, go see it!
I’m still on cloud 9 after a whirlwind week in Hollywood. I was there to attend the premiere of Iron Man 3 at the iconic El Capitan Theater with 24 other fabulous bloggers and it was thrilling! Leading up to the event I purchased and borrowed dress after dress to finally decide on something a bit more formal.
From the moment I landed in Los Angeles, my excitement just grew and grew. Not to mention a little bit of anxiety. I dressed and headed down to meet the group. I grabbed a few friends, old and new, and we posed for some pre-event shots.
Top right is Ashley from Crunchy Frugalista, middle pic is my photo buddy and #shortfriend Sarah from East 9th Street, and at the bottom is Crystal from Simply Being Mommy and Kas from Southern Bella’s Ways to Save!
Our shuttles took us a block or two from the event, and wouldn’t you know it, Robert Downey Jr. drove right by with his wife in a convertible Audi surrounded with bike police with license plates reading STARK16! My starstruck mentality kicked in and I wanted to run screaming after the car but I kept it together and we started our walk to the red carpet as a mature group. 
My eyes bugged out and strained to see all the gorgeous celebrities gracing the carpet. Gwyneth Paltrow looked stunning in a part sheer number. Emily VanCamp from Revenge and Brothers and Sisters was adorable. Don Cheadle looked dashing, and I even got a quick shot Robert Downey Jr. signing autographs for his fans. Well, his eyes and hair made the shot.
I had 30 seconds to pose, thanks to Sarah for snapping this shot and Laura from Wheel ‘n Deal Mama for the epic photobomb! 😉
It’s like a photo from Where’s Waldo when we grabbed a press shot from FiOS. See me looking quite overwhelmed and confused? We finally made it into the theater, unfortunately we had to surrender our phones and cameras, but the energy was amazing and I tried to soak it all in. Until the beginning of the film we were able to watch a live feed from the carpet on the big screen. Here’s some of what we saw…(photos courtesy of Disney/Marvel)
The movie was brilliant and I’ll let you know more in my upcoming post. The night was something I’ll never forget, someone quick pinch me and let me know I was not dreaming the whole thing! Combine that with lasting friendships and special surprises my week was something people dream about! You have to see the film when it’s released this Friday, May 3!
My trip was hosted by Disney and Marvel, all opinions 100% my own.
Having just returned from the Iron Man 3 movie premiere in Hollywood, I’m still in awe of all we saw and all we did. In the upcoming weeks, you’ll hear all about our experiences and stay tuned for my full review of the movie, but for now here’s a new Iron Man 3 clip. If you remember the movie picks up where The Avengers left off!
Nothing Has Been the Same Since New York

After reading Robert Downey Jr. I kinda blacked out and all the other names just blended together. This essentially means we will be walking the same carpet at RDJ. He’ll be in the same theater watching the same movie as me. You know, a normal Wednesday. AHHH!!
Now, my potential outfit…it’s much more conservative than some of the others, but it’s something I feel comfortable in. 
But, now with this news of the stars that will be at the premiere, don’t be surprised if I end up wearing something completely different!
In 3 short weeks, I’m going to be walking the red carpet alongside some of the coolest celebs and even more awesome bloggers at the premiere of Iron Man 3 in Hollywood!
I gasped when I read the email and I think I forgot how to breathe for a second and nearly passed out. Then when it said we will be interviewing TBD cast members, my mind confused it with RDJ and I screamed, “TOBERT BOWNEY DUNIOR!” Wait what?! The fog finally cleared from my delirium but I’m still overwhelmed at this amazing opportunity!
The premiere will be at the El Capitan Theater, such an iconic Los Angeles venue, I’ve visited once for the Lion King 3D event, and get to return for breakfast and a tour at their neighboring Soda Fountain!
We’ll be staying at the Sheraton Universal and also be visiting Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum during the press trip and I get to hang with Tony Stark there, he looks so real!
UPDATE: We will have the amazing opportunity to interview the beautiful and talented Gwyneth Paltrow (Pepper Potts) and young star Ty Simpkins as well so if you have anything you’d like me to ask, make sure you leave the question in the comments below!
