Comments: Ian is one of the celebrities I most wanted to see at DragonCon 2012, but I have to admit, I was not thrilled with the handling of his photo opps and autograph sessions by Celebrity Authentics. I did get a photo taken with Ian, but he was very late to his photo opp session and then the organizers rushed us each through his line in a not-so-friendly way. Ian himself was very nice for the minute and a half I got to talk to and pose with him. Unfortunately, I had been given the wrong schedule for the day when I picked up my tickets and missed his autograph session even though I'd forked out money for a ticket. Very long story short, I finally got this autograph through the mail from Celebrity Authentics, thankfully, after assuming I was out the money I had paid for his autograph session. They had told me it wouldn't be personalized if I got one, but this one is, so I'm grateful for that at least. I'm a HUGE fan of Ian's, but I have to admit, my DragonCon experience with him left a lot to be desired. I'm glad I got my picture with him though. He's just as hot in person as he is on TV!
Comments: Steven is the only other person from The Vampire Diaries of whom I pre-ordered an autograph ticket for at DragonCon, and unfortunately, he had to cancel his appearance due to filming the show. I was given the option to have his autograph mailed to me, and since I adore him (he is the grandson of the amazing classic film actor Steve McQueen after all), I didn't ask for a refund. This autograph arrived in the mail a week after DragonCon, and I didn't have to badger Celebrity Authentics to get it.
