my Prince of Persia premiere, London 9 May 2010

(Ok, this pic is just to show that *other* people were being interviewed besides Jake.... just in case you think I'm too biased..................... yeah, right!)

After that, though the stars gradually made their way out and up the stairs to the cinema, the stage was filled with free runners and parkour acrobats doing all sorts of gravity-defying

Hi Paola!
Sounds like you had a fantastic time. I'm so pleased you got to be so close to Jake :)
I've never been to a movie premiere, but I know that I would be totally star-struck. I would just stand and stare and be a gibbering wreck!
Thanks so much for sharing your day.

Hi Anna, it's a pleasure :)
(sorry for my late reply: I had two very busy weeks).

FYI, the cute little kid dressed as mini-Prince comes up in various clips uploaded to youtube in the meantime, for example
here:

by himself at 00:07"
and towards the end, with Jake holding him and taking pics, at 01:47"

I don't know who's the cuter, Jake or the kid!

The kid is also here, brandishing his sword, at 00:12" :)

Hope you and your little daughter are doing well,
Hugs
Paola

Thank you for these delightful pictures of our beautiful Jake from London, Paola. Man, he looks so much better in real life than when he's in that silly Prince of Persia costume. And I must be thankful for his own adorable American voice in place of that fake British accent too. Thank you also for offering a snippet of video with that. I am thankful you caught a moment when he just so happened to be answering a question about the connection to video games.... as you know, that topic has some special significance for me these days. :) Adorable.

Hi Alex, it's a pleasure :)

Even I was caught on camera, on this ET clip, at about 00:50"

I'm still not sure about Jake's British accent. I think overall he did a good job, but in places he sounded a little too 'forced'...

Hope you're doing well.
I'll try to write soon. I'm off to Italy on Thursday, for about ten days.

I wish I hadn't, but there you go...:( At least it shows I was really close to him... :)

Hope you're doing well.

Congrats!

Thanks for sharing all of your joy and excitement, Paola. What a lucky gal you are. I'm glad Jake looked relaxed and pleased to be there. I saw the livestream of the event yesterday and I agree that he seemed to be having a very good time. He was funny and engaging and oh so gorgeous. With that indefinable spark that is all Jake.

Let's see, I believe the third time's the charm, right? Now, that you and Jake are old friends, who knows what might happen the next chance you get to share that red carpet moment together. Dinner invitation, anyone? *wink*

Take care, and thanks again. I'm over the top thrilled for you, Paola!

Love, Debra.

What fun to see these, Paola, and to read your wonderful lively description! Wow, I know a person who has been a metre away from Jake! Thanks for posting it all.
