THE ROBERT SHEEHAN EXPERIENCE!

9/26/2013

ITS GOD OR ROB?!

It feels like only yesterday I was writing about my AWESOME experience of bumping into Brendan and now I'm talking about ROB?! WHAT?! How is it possible that I have actually seen him in the flesh? ( And trust me he is even gorgeouser in person!!) But what I cant get my head around at all is the fact that I MET him..... Well bear hugged him anyway!

It was at times like today, as I stood in my apron over a sink full of dirty dishes in Home Economics class staring out the fogged up window at the misty rotten weather, that it really only began to sink in. It happened so quick but the memory will last a lifetime... So where do I begin?

First of all you're probably wondering why I would refer to god in the title. Well that's part of the story. As you may or not have known, Robbie was going to be in UCD on Tuesday the 24th of September. As soon as I found out he was coming home I started Riverdancing! No obviously not, but could you imagine! Anyway I was immensely happy. After feeling like we'd lost him to Hollywood he returned to the wee Island once more. And a bit out of the blue as well!

Robbie was getting presented with the James Joyce award by the Literary and Historical society in UCD and there was going to be a Q&A. I knew that this was the opportunity to finally get to see him in person! It started at five pm so I knew I'd have to leave school early if I wanted to get in. (The hall could only take 700 people!) I left school at lunch so I could make it on time, but it was ok, it was just mass for the last three classes, hence the title.

Then began the hours journey to Dublin. I got most of my homework done on the way, the things I do for Robbie! But they are soo worth it!
I honestly didn't think i'd get in because the college had been tweeting all day that it was strictly members only but I thought that even if I didn't get in at least I could say I tried!

At arriving at UCD and the hall where the event would be taking place I was immediately confronted by a ferocious queue. There was a buzz of excitement and anticipation in the air, Roberts face sticking to every billboard and wall but there was that little niggle of doubt that it was too good to be true.....

The stalls where you could buy memberships were situated just outside the entry doors and we were lucky enough to get temporary ones! Winning! We could get in! (Even though I was the youngest and smallest there) It was a success! But the queue was another thing. We joined what was the back then, and hoped for the best. Remember only 700 could get in! I took pity on all the lost souls wandering down to join the mile long queue, although we weren't In a much better position!

Okay, so I don't want to bore you any longer but we did get in and I saw the Q&A! I could barely contain my excitement! It was all so surreal. When he walked out I almost DIED!! I had no idea that in less than 2 hours I would near or less die...!

Robbie was his usual charmingly interesting self. He had the audience's undivided attention and likewise with him. He told manys a tale about Nicolas Cage to our amusement and there was a lot of leprechaun talk and sex scenes with a 82 year old woman mentioned but any of you who have partaken in our #Sheehanathons and have watched "Young Blades" - A show he did when he was around 16 in Vancouver - will have been happy to know that one of our favourite characters that he's ever played, King Louis the 14th, had a special wee mention also!

When it was all over, it felt like no time had passed at all and Robbie leaves you with a lust for more breath-taking stories and the occasional witty comment thrown in for good measure. But sadly, it was time to say goodbye *Cue Music* Just kidding. But it really was over or so I thought....

When we were leaving the curiosity got the better of us, we asked someone from the society which exit Robbie would be leaving through, they said round the back. I was trying to stay positive but I knew the chances of meeting him would be very slim but I never knew it would be so easy! As we approached some stairs we were blocked by a very forward going girl who announced the sad reality, that we weren't allowed up and had to stay in the foyer. After that it was all a blur, everything happened so quick. My heart was beating madly just as I saw Brendan and THE REAL MRS SHEEHAN come down the stairs! Honestly, Brendan is a miracle sent from above! Even though I skipped mass someone was clearly looking out for me!

I'm sure you know that I've met Bren before but here's a wee reminder...(Note the Darren like hoodie)

So me and my mam freaked Again! (Sorry Bren, I know were such stalkers!) and started waving and calling him over! And thankfully he did! He recognised us straight away! I couldn't believe it! And then his mammy came over! The both of them were so pleasant and kind and i'll never forget what Mrs Sheehan said to me (Or the jist of it anyway) :

" Oh your The Sheehab girl! It was so nice what you wrote about my son (Bren) You should be a journalist!"

So there you have it folks, if I go on to be a major successful journalist or even nab my own James Joyce award, I have Mrs Sheehan to thank! Seriously can this family be any more amazing!?

Here's me chatting away to Bren and the mammy, that I don't even notice that Robbie is standing just 2 metres away from me...!!!!!!
I freaked. Just saw him and my stomach dropped. I'll put the hysterical crying down to the fact that I had been containing all the excitement and anxiousness before hand and it literally EXPLODED! I'm ashamed I cried so much but I couldn't stop! Thats the Gods honest truth! When he saw me crying he looked a little confused but Bren quickly informed him on who I was. And then i'll never forget what he said:

"Oooh Yeah The Sheehab! Your the girl who chased my brother down Grafton Street!"

Then he walked over with his arms reached out!!! I just grabbed him and held on for dear life! I had no idea what was happening or what anyone was saying it was like that for 10 seconds, I was in a world of my own!!! Its the feeling when nothing else matters and all your dreams are coming true right before your eyes ( Which were all blury from the tears mind you, so I couldn't see much!)

But I do remember one thing Robbie said while we were hugging :

Awww Rachel, Don't cry!"

HOW ADORABLE IS THAT!!?? LIKE HOW CAN HE BE ANY MORE PERFECT!? But I didn't really stop crying because that only made it worse!
(I'm proud to be known as the "Girl who chased Robbie's brother down Grafton Street" btw!)

I had to edit it so much because I was crying! I know, I know....My eyebrows look so weird....

This one sums up my emotions and how I felt at that moment in time....!! Look at Robbie's face though! You can make out him laughing!

W.O.W ! Eventful last couple of days! But I finally got down to writing this. I would like to thank Mrs Sheehan for the wonderful compliments, Robbie for being, well Robbie! and having the patience to take a photo with a hysterical crying teenage girl and of course to Bren for being an absolute star!!
Hope you enjoyed reading this -Especially if you go by the names of Bren, Robbie and Mrs Sheehan - as much as I enjoyed writing it!
Rachel XxX :)

THE BRENDAN SHEEHAN EXPERIENCE!

8/19/2013

Well, we aren't called "The Sheehab" for nothing! After my AMAZING experience of "casually" bumping into Robbie's brother on Grafton street, we've now realized that the Sheester love also extends to his brother Bren! I have to be honest I'm probably not the only one who was a tincy bit scared of him, you know with him being a body builder and six foot five! But I have to say overall, he was a gentleman, very genuine and sweet. (Even while standing in the rain!)

I've been meaning to explain to you all exactly how I met him but I've been so star struck and distracted the last couple of days, that it was near impossible to keep still and recall everything that happened!

Gosh, I don't even know how to start. It was a normal Saturday I suppose, I was doing the usual rounds on Facebook and twitter, sheestering like mad! I got a message from me fellow head Sheester, Erinn, telling me Rob was in Dublin! So of course I started researching, asking fellow Sheesters what the story was. It appeared at the time, that he was on Irish radio that morning and was planning to go out with mates that night in Dublin. So as any good Sheester knows, Robs usually in Lilies, various other hideouts and has been spotted by many strolling up and down Grafton street! As I was unable to attend the apple store TMI Q&A that Rob would be at on Monday, I jumped (Literally!) at the chance to meet him in Dublin!

And so began the hours journey to the city, I had my City Of Bones book and fully charged phone to get some photos. I was trying stay positive, I know its a huge city but if so many people had casually met him in Grafton street while they weren't even looking for him, it was impossible for me to miss him! It turns out anyway my eyes aren't just finely tuned to spotting the Robster, I can spot a certain Sheehan family member a street away too!

We had only gotten out of the car and were strolling down some street perpendicular to Grafton street when I saw him. It was a very busy day, people rushing by shopping bags in hand but for a Sheester you could spot those curls anywhere! I knew straight away it was his brother! I was following him on twitter and knew what he looked like and besides, he's the spitting image of Robbie!!

I freaked out as usual, shouting, jumping up and down and pointing like a maniac who had escaped from a mental home!! Of course, I got some queer looks but there was no way I was letting this opportunity pass me by! I'm quite sure Bren saw me from across the street, gapping at him like an idiot. So away I went in pursuit of Bren in the hope of maybe leading me to Robbie! I know that sounds stalkerish but you all would have done the same, plus I wanted to meet Bren too! He pops into a internet café/ salon and my hopes are extinguished. Don't get me wrong being so close to anything Robbie related is a true blessing but I knew I couldn't follow him up! He had already spotted me!!

So we waited and waited but there was a problem. It started raining and I really needed to pee! Eventually we had no other choice but to go in! I headed up the narrow windy stairs and then found the first bathroom I could. My mam was waiting outside, looking about for him which wasn't much good since she didn't even know what he looked like! "Rob!" was what I told her to look for!

While I was in the bathroom there was a knock on the door. "Rachel was he wearing a black top and shorts?" yeah I replied, still sitting on the toilet mind you. "Oh well he's just passed, he's going down the stairs.." I swear, I've never moved so quick in my life! I flew down the stairs and once I got to the top of the last flight sure enough there was little Bren at the bottom! He was pulling on a blue hoodie (Coincidence?) and again I started to freak! he was right there! Brendan Sheehan! Robbie's brother!

He saw me and my mam then and i'll tell you he must have been well creeped out cause he pulled up his hood and flew out the door!! I was unsure of what to do so my mam took lead and we both chased up the street after him!

"Excuse me! Are you Brendan?!
"Yeah"
"Brendan Sheehan?!
"Yeah"
"Robbie's Broth-"
"Yeah"

That was pretty much how the introduction went. I'm not sure what exactly was said after that but somehow or another we got talking about if Rob was in town.

"Is he here?"
"No, no he's not. He's away in Berlin or Germany or something. He's promoting for that new movie, City Of Bones."
"oh he's not? We thought he was. Rachel heard something about him being on the radio this morning"
"Oh, he was probably being interviewed from abroad."
"ah yeah".

He did mention that Robbie could be home within the next week or so.... Keep your eyes peeled Dublin Sheesters!! And somehow we got a photo taken with him. He was a bit shocked to be asked for a photo but was glad to see we were such big fans . (His phone even went off in his pocket while we were chatting and he ignored it!!)

It was a windy day and my hair got a bit excited ( Or maybe from meeting Bren?) and decided to blow into my face and make it look like I had a uni brow... yeah thanks for that. But Bren looked amazeballs! You cant see it in the photo but his eyes are the same shape as Robbie's and are
a summers sky blue with some clouds mixed together and with little flecks of gold thrown in. Beautiful! And don't get me started on the hair... need I say anymore?

And my mom also decided to take a photo of his hand... I'm just kidding.

So anyway through all that excitement we still managed to talk about Robs scandalously awesome outfit at the TMI LA premiere and of course, The Sheehab.

Bren: Did you see his outfit at the La Premiere?
Me: yeah!
Bren : He's one snazzy mofo!

I have to say that sums Robbie up quite well haha!!

So we asked Bren did he know about The Sheehab and listen to this, he did! I was
delighted! My mam told him that I was involved with it and he seemed really
impressed! We were even graced by a follow from him! (Fan made posters for the TMI Apple store event in London! Love our Sheesters!)

I have to say, that day was one of the best of my life so far. Will never be forgotten! Thank you so so so much Bren if your reading this!! The Sheesters love you!! Mwahhh!!

TMI LA Premiere & That Suit!!

8/13/2013

0 Comments

So it was the LA Premiere of The Mortal Instruments - City of Bones last night & Robbie's suit seems to have caused quite a stir!! It would appear to be the Marmite of the suit world!

The suit, from London-based designers Dent De Man, is a hit with the fashion world - Red Carpet Fashion Awards had this to say...

Robert Sheehan stood head-and-shoulders above everyone else when he took to the red carpet at the ArcLight Theatre in Hollywood for the ‘The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones’ LA premiere.

The Irish actor wore a paisley-printed suit from London-based designers Dent De Man, who are known for their classic menswear with a modern unique twist using mostly classic African fabrics.

The chocolate suit with a bold blue paisley print was styled with a white button-up shirt with a gold collar-chain accent and, following in the footsteps of many celebs, he opted for white wingtip shoes with a blue platform.

His curly tresses just add to the overall allure of this look. Very Justin Timberlake – the ‘N Sync years.

You may remember that Labrinth was the first to bring this brand to the red carpet when he wore a Dent De Man suit to the 2013 Brit Awards.

The Fashion Court also had this to say...

WHO: Robert Sheehan
WHERE & WHEN: “The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones” Los Angeles Premiere on August 12, 2013.
WEARING: Dent de Man suit, Del Toro shoes

MY VERDICT: You’re probably thinking: “Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or did Robert seriously hit the black carpet tonight for “The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones” wearing one of the best printed suits ever?” Well, yes—yes, he did. The 25-year-old Irish actor was oh-so-fashion forward at the Hollywood premiere of his new movie while donned in a Dent de Man Spring 2014 chocolate and aqua paisley printed jacket and trousers with flecks of gold.

It was loud, it was unexpected, and it was so-so-so-good. I love it when men embrace a little fashion creativity and are willing to take risks, because sometimes they pay off—like right now. What Robert wore may not be a pattern most guys could pull off, but his confidence is clear and that’s what makes it even better.

Robert took his look a stylish step further by breaking up the print with a white dress shirt, gold collar chain clip, and a ridiculously cool pair of white Del Toro wingtip shoes with bright blue detail. Oh, and he’s totally rocking those curls too. #JustSayin’

The Irish Independent weren't so keen mind you, likening his style to Hugh Hefner!! I'd quite happily be a bunny in Rob's mansion haha!! Here's the write up...

THE Love/Hate actor took fashion inspiration from the Playboy publisher at last night's LA premiere of his new film.

IFTA-winner Robert Sheehan certainly doesn't play by anybody else's fashion rules. The quirky actor, who shot to fame as Darren Tracey in RTE smash gangland drama Love/Hate, is making waves in Hollywood and joined a host of young stars for last night's premiere of The Mortal instruments: City of Bones.

And while it marks his biggest movie role to date, Robert isn't sticking to anyone else's red carpet rules. Sheehan wore a paisley printed silk suit, a buttoned up white shirt with a gold chain, and his trademark curly hair was styled neatly.

The Portlaoise native today told of the intense audition process he went through the secure his role in ‘The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones’.

He said that the director Harald Zwart didn’t think Rob was geeky enough for the part of bookworm Simon, best friend to female lead Clary, played by Lily Collins.

“The director first thought I might be too ‘cool’ to play a guy who spent his childhood buried in books. I had to convince him, and the producers, that I could be geeky enough. I badgered my way into a screen test in Toronto,” said that 25-year-old, in an interview with this week’s RTE Guide.

Rob, who shocked Irish TV audiences last December when his character Darren on Stuart Carolan’s gangland hit was murdered in the series climax, said that he prepared intensely to land the gig on ‘The Mortal Instruments’.

The movie is due out in the autumn and has been tipped as the next ‘Twilight’ phenomenon.

The Irish heartthrob is signed up to appear in three of the instalments, with the second film scheduled to begin filming in September.

“The powers-that-be had enough faith to green-light it before seeing how the first one fares,” he said.

Personally, I loved the suit. There's not many men who could carry off such a bold style, but Robert certainly can. Can't wait to see what he wears to the other premieres!!
