 Jennifer Beals to Attend L5 Convention in Blackpool, England: November 14-16, 2008

 

By BetteAndTinaForever

Jennifer, Jennifer…you are full of surprises. And no, I don’t mean Jennifer Schecter; though she keeps surprising me again and again in season 5. I went from rolling my eyes at her, to feeling sorry for her, to rooting for her; but that’s not the focus of this article.

I actually mean Jennifer Beals, who has mentioned many times that she is a very private person who feels shy among huge group of fans. The surprise is that Jennifer is the first guest who was announced to attend the future L5 Starfury Convention, which will be held in Blackpool, England on November 14-16, 2008.

I personally want to say thanks to Laurel Holloman who mentioned at L3 Convention that Jennifer was curious about it and asked her many questions and I believe that Laurel played a certain role in persuading Jennifer to appear. I’m pretty sure that Laurel’s excitement and enthusiasm about L Word conventions broke down the barriers of shyness that kept Jennifer Beals from signing up before.

Secondly, a huge thanks to Sean Harry for making it possible to get Jennifer Beals as a guest for the convention. This is so exciting that even the location of the convention won’t stop me and many other fans from attending. Yes, to be honest, I didn’t care that much for Blackpool last year in terms of food, weather or the hotel but if it means a chance to see good friends, attend a great convention and meet Jennifer Beals – nothing else matters. Not to me, anyway.

The three-day convention will feature guests’ Q&A’s, photo and autograph sessions, competitions and parties. Jennifer Beals is only one of the guests and more will be announced soon. The first 120 Gold tickets that allow their holders to attend a special Meet & Greet, have been already sold out but there are many regular tickets left that will get you access to everything else.

Honestly, I think for many fans it might be the only chance in life to see Jennifer Beals in person, shake her hand, talk to her and take a picture with her, so hurry up and book your tickets now. Who knows, there might be surprises and Laurel Holloman will be invited as well and every TiBetter’s dream will come true: B&T together in the same place at the same time!!

Comments: Oh God! I wish I could go; but, I can't. =( My wife is not as into all of this stuff as I am. I guess it's because I am SO obsessed with JB and reading Fanfiction. Congratulations to all of those who have been able to attend the conventions and meet the cast members. You are truly blessed. I am just bummed that I won't even be able to L5. So, for those that do get to go... tell JB "Hiiiii!" from me, please. I would really appreciate it. Oh! And have lots of fun for me too. =)

Comments: That is a shame Emae29, my partner is not into the LWord but she went to L2 for me and liked Mia K and Laurel H and so we went to L3 where she thought Erin and Leisha were great too along with the nice chat she had with Laurel at the auto session. Then she agreed to L4 and she loved Rachel S, Lauren LS and Anne R and she let me talk her into L5 (I'd said no more Cons as they are expensive and not her thing) because JB is going. Perhaps if you put on puppy dog eyes she'll agree, the con isn't just about the show, its meeting people and making new friends too, and who knows perhaps like Red she may even get to like them or at least the stars :-)

Comments: Hey there y'all. Living in NZ and being the owner of a 'mortgage' I simply cannot afford to travel there so plz guys give JB and Lu [I'm hoping she'll be there] my fond regards. I love the L Word and really believe that there are many more Lesbian stories to be told by the L Word team!!! and I adore JB in the role of Bette and Lu as Tina. Also I think Rachel is da bomb!!!

Comments: Maybe JB has decided to go since there is only one season left of the show (and a short one at that!). If folks are lucky, perhaps the entire cast will confirm their attendance. Fans can only hope.
