I just wanted to brag that Tyler Hilton called me on Thursday. Hahaha. Yup, yup he did. It was SO embarrassing.
In case any of you don't know who Tyler Hilton is, he played Chris on One Tree Hill and he also played Elvis Presley in Walk the Line. And of course, he's also a musician. (A GREAT musician, I might add!)
During the summer, my friends and I went on a road trip from socal to Georgia. We got to Georgia on a Saturday morning and decided to drive up to Nashville that night (an additional 3 1/2 hours to our 4 day drive) to see Tyrone Wells.
The show was fabulous and everything was great. When I got back home to California, I found out that Tyler Hilton was at the show. AND I HAD NO IDEA. I saw a picture and he was sitting at the table RIGHT NEXT TO ME and I had no clue.
I was very upset and I left Tyrone's drummer a comment saying something to the affect of, "WHY WOULDN'T YOU TELL ME TYLER HILTON WAS AT YOUR SHOW IN NASHVILLE?!?!"
He never responded so I thought he didn't care.
Well a couple weeks ago at Tyrone's show in LA, Mark (Tyrone's drummer) came up to me and was like, I'm gonna have Tyler Hilton call you.
I was like, "SHUT UP!!!!"
He told me that Tyrone and Tyler Hilton are doing some promotional thing together (I really didn't pay attention to the explanation to be quite honest) and that they'd be together at the end of September. And he'd have him call me. I guess Mark DID read my comment and DID care haha.
Anyway, so last Thursday at like 10pm I was laying in bed with the lights out watching my TiVo-ed Kid Nation when my phone rang.
Mystery Voice- "Hey, is this Sammie?"
Me- "Yes..."
Tyler- "Hey this is Tyler Hilton."
Me- "HEY!"
T- "How are you?"
Me- "Good... you?"
T- "I'm good.. I'm just hanging out with Mark and he said you were in Nashville and you didn't even come say hi."
Me- "I'm sorry! I didn't even know you were there!"
T- "Well didn't stay very long so I guess I can forgive you."
And then we talked about random stuff I don't remember.
T- "Where are you from?"
Me- "California."
T- "Oh, LA?"
Me- "Yea Orange County."
T- "Oh, cool. I do a show every year around Christmas time in Orange County so if you're free during December you should come out. Just come and say, Hey I'm Sammie, you called me!"
Me- nervous laughter... heh.
T- "Ok well hopefully I'll see you soon, here's Mark."
Mark- "Heyyy Sammieeee!"
Me- "OMG AWKWARD!!!! You should have told me when he'd call!!!!"
Mark- "Haaa no, that wasn't awkward."
Then I heard Tyler in the background say, "Awkward?!?!"
Mark- "Tyler doesn't think it was awkward... he wants to talk to you again."
Me- "Oh gosh haaa, ok."
Tyler- "That was NOT awkward... what we have is totally normal."
Me- "I'm sorry, it was awkward!"
Tyler- "Nooo, it wasn't!"
Me- "Ok I just chose the wrong word. I just wasn't expecting that right now."
Tyler- "Ok I can understand that. It was unexpected, but not awkward."
Me- "Haha ok, sorry."
Then he gave the phone back to Mark and we talked about stuff that no one would be interested in hahahah.
BUT OMG, it totally WAS SO AWKWARD you don't even knoooow. Hahahhahaha. oh em gee. And I was FREAKING OUT afterwards. I just called everyone I knew and I was like, "OMG TYLER HILTON JUST CALLED ME!!!"
And now it's all I think about. Hence this thread. That's all. :)
-
Vanessa Carlton should call me.
-
That's cool!
I've never talked to a famous person before...
-
lucky! I want a famous singer person call me! =] (sooo jealous!!!)
-
I met and talked to Tyler about two years ago. It was the same day as when I met and talked to Vanessa, so that undermined my talking to Tyler. He was super-down to earth and just a really nice guy. You're extreeeemely lucky to have him call you!
-
That;s pretty kool!! lucky lucky you!!!

Never heard of him until this thread.
-
I had to look him up on IMDB...haha. I'm with you on that Will!
But thats great, glad a famous guy called you. I would forget my own name...kudos to you for keeping up the conversation!!!
-

didn't you get banned?
anyways, Tyler IS famous. he's famous enough to play with michelle branch, gavin degraw, etc. at the one tree hill tour & he's really talented.
-
hahaha whoa. i realized i never came back to check the replies! i'm glad lots of people seem to know who is so it doesn't seem that lame.
but i'm pretty sure playing elvis presley in walk the line which won an academy award pretty much defines you as being famous. pfft.
anywayyyy. so there's an update to my story. :)
obviously i was ECSTATIC that he called me, but i was also kind of sad that i didn't really have proof. like.. you can't record a phone call, you know? (well maybe you can, but i don't have that kind of technology). but! a couple days ago, i saw tyrone wells again @ chapman university and mark brought me an autographed tyler picture! and this is what he wrote:
to sammie - glad we got to talk!
and then he signed and dated it. so now i have proof! hahahah. yayy. that's all.
-
But thats great, glad a famous guy called you. I would forget my own name...kudos to you for keeping up the conversation!!!
haha seriously! i don't know how i managed that! but i think it's because i'm friends w/ mark... and mark is friends w/ tyler. so i didn't want him to think i'm a giant freak for going crazy about talking to him. ya know? i dunno. maybe it was cuz i was tired. seriously... i can't believe TYLER HILTON like called my PERSONAL cell phone. that's crazy!
-
oh yeah you can definitely record phone conversations. Paula Abdul called a fan who gave Paula her number in a letter she wrote for her & she recorded it a long time ago..im just not sure how either.
-
yea if i would have known when he was going to call... i probably would have put him on speaker phone and like... video taped it or something haha. oh well. still cool. :D
-
^lol thats what i would've done too if i could put it to speaker on my cell, but i dont think i could..unless i just dont know how haha
-

-
