Pixie Lott: Topshop Singapore

So in case you didn't already know- Pixie Lott dropped by TopShop on Orchard road this week! It was kind of under publicized, as it was only announced over facebook and twitter a couple of days before the whole shebang was to kick off. I'm going to be honest here- I'm not the most giant Pixie Lott fan. I know a couple of her songs, and like everybody else I think she's gorgeous but I've never gotten super into her music. That being said, when am I ever going to pass up a chance to meet a celebrity- for free?
The (now infamous) frosted glass "personal shopping" room door!



We arrived at TopShop at around 7 and did a little snooping to see if we could spot where Pixie was going to be. We were told she was going to walk through the main entrance, and make her way into the private personal shopping room to meet with some contest winners. At about 8, I heard footsteps coming down the stairs to the accessories floor and who could it be? Pixie of course! I couldn't get too many great pictures of her arrival as she was bustled into the personal shopping room super quick!

Like I said- she was very rushed! Only got a good quality picture of the back of her head. 
There were immense squeals that erupted from the room as Pixie entered- obviously some lucky fans had just had their entire teenage lives completed! We hung around outside the personal shopping room and talked to some radio hosts, myself and a couple others were even live on air! Apparently Pixie heard us. After sometime, we made our way over to a sectioned off area where racks of clothes were pulled out for Pixie to inspect. We positioned ourselves in the first row of that area so we could get the best view of her possible. She eventually emerged from the sacred shopping room, and began to browse through the clothes with the two contest winners. 



People were constantly fussing over her, it was difficult to get a clear shot!
We then asked one of the contest winners if she could call Pixie over for some photos- and much to our surprise she obliged! Being taller than everyone else, I asked first and got a picture with Pixie! As it turns out the picture was really blurry and I looked horrible so I was super upset at first. She took photos with 3 others before being dragged away by her uptight management. 



Pixie being extremely sweet and posing for photos with fans!

After shopping for a little longer, she made her way back to the room where she stayed cooped up doing interviews for another hour. We got really tired and almost went home- but a representative from the amazingly sweet Universal Music Singapore team came to tell us that Pixie was going to come out and spend some time with us! Most people had retreated to their homes after catching a quick glimpse of her, but 15 people stuck around to see what would happen afterwards. We were pulled behind a barrier when suddenly the door slid open and the gorgeous Pixie Lott strode out to greet us! I was in the front row with two of my friends and asked her for an autograph first. We made small talk, and she mentioned that she loved my pen! Then I asked for a picture and she obliged with such good nature! 

This is the second picture I got with Pixie- much better than the first!



After we got our pictures/autographs we moved to let other Crazy Cats get in for their Pixie fix! When the crowd had died down slightly and Pixie was about to return to her personal shopping room- we barged to the front of the line and asked for hugs! She was very sweet about it and gave all of us warm and inviting embraces!

Here's a picture I got with Pixie- such a cool shot!
All in all it was a really fantastic day, and we all had such a great time with Pixie! She was amazingly nice and spent a lot of time with us, I'm sure all of her Singapore Crazy Cats are still starstruck by the recent events! Did any of you go to see her? Do you like her? If you could meet a celebrity- who would it be?
