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.

Teehee, that LJ-entry was so funny. Silly-funny that is, or maybe even slightly tragic-funny. Anyway, he does look like a regular nice guy, so good on him!

Dude, I wish. That would have been so much fun. I think that Dan should do more stuff like that, but Tom's pretty cool too.

Thats pretty cool that he would personally invite his fans! I'm sure his personality isn't anything like what he plays in the movies!

I guess that's nice that he finds the time to be with his fans. Not a lot of celebrities do that. He seems like a really nice guy and I would like to meet him sometime. hmmmm... maybe when he has another one of those.

It's pretty cool of him to do that. I saw some other pic's from the CBBC site and there was one with his mum - she had a t-shirt that said "Tom's Mum". I thought that was pretty cute! Congrats to all the lucky fans who were able to attend.

It's at Chelsea?!?! Maybe I don't like Tom that much afterall.
But, seriously, those fans whom he invited are really lucky. What did they do to get an invitation??

I'll like the guy as long as he doesnt show signs of arrogance towards people and start thinking he's too big a thing. Coz he isnt. He only has a not too big role in the HP series up his belt so as far as pride goes, Adios.
Nevertheless... Good LAD

What a great idea! I wish all actors would do something like this. Not only does it give the loyal fans a way to see and talk to their favorite actor, it is a wonderful way for actors to reach back to their fans, who help determine their success. It would also give actors some more respect, showing they do care about their fans, and allows the fans to realize that actors are only human after all. An idea like this benefits all - good for you, Tom.
