Ian Somerhalder in Manila

from Ian's twitter account

May 24, 2012, marks the date of such an epic experience. Seeing Ian Somerhalder in the flesh was a dream come true! Thank you, Penshoppe for bringing him here! ♥

Ian Somerhalder, also known as Damon Salvatore in The Vampire Diaries recently joined the very hot team of endorsers hailed as 'The Penshoppe All Stars' together with the likes of Zac Efron, Ed Westwick, Mario Maurer and latest addition to the line up, Leighton Meester. 

For months, rumors have been circling that Ian would be coming to Philippines but no one disclosed as to when this would actually happen. Until finally, Ian himself, together with Penshoppe and Publicity Asia officially announced through Twitter that he really was coming to the Philippines! At that moment, everyone started talking about how they would go to far lengths just to see him. And I guess that makes 6,000 of us! 

 The crowd was wild!!! 

Good thing my friends and I got a good spot near the left side of the stage. 

In spite of all obstacles that day, it was super amazing to see him! Thank you Penshoppe, Publicity Asia, SM Mall of Asia for giving us the chance to see him up close! This is experience will be a hard one to top, truly one for the books!
