Tom Felton
(Draco) from the Harry Potter movies had his first fan club meeting at London's Chelsea Football Club yesterday and CBBC Newsround has a report as well as some pictures from the event.
Tom had invited a selection of fans by letter/phone and his website to come and meet him in person and had this to say about the turnout:
"I am really happy with the turnout. You can tell how much some people really want to be here, because they can't speak!"
Also dawniky's has a LiveJournal report & pictures posted about her experience. Thanks to Mugglenet for the tip.
Update: Tom has updated his website with pictures and an entry about the day's events.

That is pretty cool I'm glad to hear that he is taking his celebrity in stride. Most teenage actors would be out planning to spend his money.

Huh, interesting. Personally I wouldn't have gone to it, but I think that it's nice that he is meeting up with his fans so personally. I read Dawn's livejournal and it's quite funny. Tom's never read the books?! iyiyi just like Malfoy he doesn't read! :O

He had the meeting at Chelsea Football Club? Awww man, a fan club on hallowed football grounds? tsk tsk, I'm sure there are plenty of HPANAers who will be plenty angry they weren't invited.

He seems like a really cool guy! I'm not exactly his biggest fan, but it would have been cool to be there. He is in the Harry Potter movies, so that's a good enough reason for me!

That was really nice of Tom to take the time to do that for all his fans, they all seemed to really enjoy themselves and their gift bags, I wonder how long it took him to get through the line and meet all his fans. Those are some good pics too.

Not too sure how to respond to this. He sure does love his fans to do something like this. And brave too..I'd be scared that girls would throw themselves at me and stuff. I've always thought Tom was a little full of himself but I guess he's just enjoying his stardom in his own way.

Cool! But I don't really find him handsome with short brown hair... Long and blond and evil! That's how I like him!!!
Did you see his mother on the 8th picture? She was wearing a T-shirt with Tom's mum on it! :-)

Awww... it's nice of him to do that for his fans. I think he makes a great Malfoy, but I'm not all fan girly so I probably wouldn't have gone. Now Alan Rickman ... I'd be there in a heartbeat (or Kenneth Branagh).
