I met Jerry O’Connell. My written account of that day:<\/p>\n

\nOn Wednesday, February 21, 2001, I met Jerry O\u2019Connell!!! My favorite actor and the guy who I have been obsessed with since I was 10 (1995)! Not only that, but every moment of it was captured on film and aired on MTV\u2019s Total Request Live! This is how it happened:<\/p>\n

I went to go see TRL Wednesday because I knew that Jerry was hosting it. This lady saw me with my sign and she said, “Is this sign for Jerry? OK, before the last segment, I\u2019ll bring you over to the island over there to meet him.” And I\u2019m just like OMG. So she did that and I was standing over there waiting and I was looking at this person who was requesting a video and then someone said, “Look! There\u2019s Jerry!” And I looked and I started screaming! He came over and he stood next to me and I\u2019m totally freaking out! Then the tech guys are giving us instructions, and then we\u2019re back on TV and Jerry says, “Tomcats, March 30th, everyone\u2019s going to go see it right?” and we\u2019re all jumping up and down and shaking our heads and screaming. Then he says to me, “well, I know you will,” and then he asks me if I made that (my sign) and I\u2019m like uh huh. Then he asks, “What\u2019s your name?” and I said, “E-liss-a” trying my best not to start crying hysterically. Then he said, “Elissa, how are you, thank you so much.” and then he kissed my cheek and I like freaked out! Oh it was the best day of my life ever!!!!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
