Much thanks to Michael for sending this story along.
Aliens actress, Sigourney Weaver talked the other night on the Jimmy Fallon show about when she saw the Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl. She said that it was in 1962, which we all know is impossible, but we can forgive her for that mistake. Most likely it was 1964 and her family had just moved to California and so, since she had made any friends, she went to the Beatles concert alone at the age of 12. After the concert, she and another girl were walking up a hill, still in awe of seeing the Beatles perform when they spot a limo coming up the road. To Sigourney's amazement, it was the Beatles' car! And John waved to her, and Paul did a head shake and Ringo waved! And afterwards she had to go home and lay down for "48 hours" because such an amazing thing happened!
She recently got a letter from the Hollywood Bowl, although I wouldn't be shocked if it was from Ron Howard's people who are putting together the Beatles live film, asked if she had seen the Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl because they had found footage of her! And low and behold....it was her! What are the chances of that??? On the Jimmy Fallon show, they showed the footage of a 12 year old Sigourney, with the hair that she wore over night in beer cans to get the perfect look that would impress John screaming out "John!" with some other Beatle fans. What fun!
