Johnny - without the sprites


So - Adam and I saw Shrek the Musical this evening with Johnny (of Johnny and the Sprites) playing Pinocchio. After the show, we went to the stage door to see if he would take pictures and sign autographs. There was a woman there with her (looked to be about) 5 year old son and the little boy's grandma there. Before Johnny came out, she and her son and the grandma were talking about the episode of Johnny and the Sprites where Johnny dressed up like a Bora Bora bush, so you knew that they were waiting to see Johnny. As soon as Johnny came out of the door he scanned the crowd, saw the little guy, and went over to talk to the little guy. He squatted down to the little guy's height and talked to him about the sprites and the Bora Bora bush and just gave the little guy special attention - it was so sweet to see. This little boy was just beaming and I found myself wishing that I'd brought Bailey because she would have loved to have seen him. Some celebs are still nice people!!
