He talked to us over the phone for buscasts 3 times, and at the end of the first one, he concluded by saying "Love you." True story.

After my concert, he was the first one to come out by the barricades even though he was sick and tired. I talked to him for like 2 minutes and he said "thank you" at least 3 or 4 times during that brief interaction. Plus he took a picture with me and offered to take another one when he heard it didn't come out well.
True story.

Top 8 night , I was in the mosh pit for the result show. Anoop and Matt were sitting next to each other on the couch. During commercial break, my friend and I held up our posters for Anoop. They both saw, waved, pointed to us, and laugh.
Then when the cameras turned off after Ryan announced the eliminated Idol would be Scott, the whole group of Idols went to surround him and provide support. I held up my "We love you Anoop, can we get a hug PLEAAAASEEE???"
Anoop saw the poster, left the group supporting Scott, and made his way to me to give me a hug. During the hug he told me "thanks so much for the support".

Okay, I'm making everything individualized here, but we can easily get 1,026 reasons I believe. Each reason deserves it own post in the spotlight. haha
On the second buscast, he was very concerned about our finances and worried we were spending too much money on the phone call. "This must be an expensive phone call!" he said. We explained it was skype and that it was free. However, I wanted to add, "Even if it was expensive, it would be worth it, because talking to you is priceless!"
True story.

He held his first twitter party yesterday. And in one of the tweets he wrote "RT @everyone" thus including everybody in the party, so no one felt left out. At the end he also wrote "Love all of y'all." True story.

His restraint at judges comments was misinterpreted... this is how well-mannered Southern gentlemen are! It's endearing when he considers carefully what to say. Even though he described his own sense of humor as dry and stupid, his quick wit is charming and intelligent. I assume he knows when we tease, but I may be mistaken. For me, for you, for me... the power of his vocals overwhelms other songs on my iPod, and I keep looping them above all others. It was a pleasure to work on the WB project because Anoop wore the wristband faithfully and discussed it on camera. Whether or not other fans know about the Carolina Way... it's a huge part of why we love Anoop.
ALL TRUE IMO

He wrote a 3rd verse to "Down" which is freakin' AWESOME!
"Baby don't lie. Baby you gonna get down with me tonight. We'll go for a ride. We'll be making love by candlelight. And I know that normally, don't do this kind of thing. But baby don't hesitate. Don't worry 'bout a thing."
True story.

Top 7/6 my friend and I were in the American Idol Extra audience when Anoop and Lil were featured on there. We had posters and everything for Anoop including the "Anoop You are the Sexiest Indian Man" poster. In the end of the taping when it was time for Lil and Anoop and Lil to sign autographs, the stage director said about my friend and I "these two HAVE To be in this segment". Then he kind of forgot about it. Anoop signed a few general fans' autographs, looked towards us, and signaled for us to come to him. The autograph I got from him that night was the prettiest one I've had of all of his. And he gave both my friend and I really nice hugs. Heck mine was even caught on camera lol.

I hope this one will make things better. The MLIS thread is therapeutic and all but maybe not everyone understood it. there's no blaming - we'll just try to make ammends with the hope that he will again lurk & take some time to read.
I'm living through everybody who had the chance to meet him but i still have some sweet moments to share....
He made me feel special that time he gave a shout out to Troopers & Desai'ples. I know he got lots of fans & not everyone decided to look for the group. I just love the fact that he knows about the group.
Next, Buscasts.
I love how he takes time to hold the phone & talk to the hosts while signing authographs & posing for pics at the barricades. All he said was "hi" and "I love y'all" but that was enough to make us all feel special & so loved. It also made us say, "I love you too!" =)

Finale results night, I went to the Nokia Theater with a poster showing my support to Anoop. Didn't get into the live show, so I just waited outside by where "American Idol Extra" was being filmed. I was actually offered tickets to this show but I didn't get the e-mail in time. oh well. It was more fun being by the barricades on the side anyways.
When the Idols came out minus Kris and Adam, I held up my poster for Anoop, he was reading it, saw me, gave me tone of the biggest smiles I've seen of us....and made his way straight to me. When he got to me, he held out his hand and said "great to see you again!". That night was the first night I was able to get a picture taken with him. =)

Yesterday Anoop hosted a Twitter party. 1:26 am our time & if not for work, I'll miss it. It was his first TP & luckily (thanks to everyone's help) my question was answered.

One time on a buscast, Anoop thought we were spending a fortune on the phone call.
We told him that we were on skype and he responded with "Oh you're on skype. Technology these days."
And I thought it was funny so I laughed. Don't know if he heard me or not, but he did chuckle a little after I started laughing.
He is so adorable and so sweet.

The subscription isn't free for me...I still have to pay for the unlimited calls. I'm the only one who has spent money on the actual site...lol. We need to get some funds or something...

I liked how Anoop took a pic of the scrapbook I made before his "Dim All The Lights" peformance. I hope he liked it I loved that he stayed and spoke to us the most at the Dallas barricades @ night. He knew melissa and I were there for him so he stayed talking to us and even took pictures while he told the others no LOL. I loved that Anoop took MY CELLPHONE to talk to all the fans listening in and he gave all of them a shout out I loved Anoop's reaction when he saw the baseball cap i gave him. On the back it had "noop-dogg" embroided on it and when he saw it, he had this face LOL he seeemed completely stoked. I love that Anoop made eye contact and listened to every word I said while at the Dallas barricades. I love that he let me give him a hug when i asked for one and last but certainly not least LOL...i enjoy him RT'ing my tweets LOLOL. thank you anoop for everything!!!!

In San Jose, I really appreciated how Anoop took his time with fans. Especially the CA Blue shirt Troopers =). And how he was willing to take individual pics with fans, and well as group pics. Also how he took the time to come out afterwards by the barricades to meet fans ago. When I told him he did amazing at the show, he took a second away from signing to face me and say "thank you" =).
In Los Angeles, Anoop neither came out before the show nor after the show. I was pretty disappointed, but 99% of my disappointment was from the way security handled everything. Very greatful for Lil to be able to give my gifts (leis, cranes, and then the RUTG CD) to Anoop. Hope I wasn't venting to him too much over twitter that night, but I was so happy when I saw he actually tweeted me! Thanks Anoop!
In Milwaukee, he didn't have much time to take pics with fans, but he took a few moments to look through the gifts of some of the troopers, and give us each a hug =). After the show at the after party, he was up for taking hug pics =).
And most of all, I've loved Anoop because of his extraordinary talent, his boy next door charm, his intelligence, etc. I knew from the time I first saw his audition on Idol 8, I found my Idol. And beside himself, it was because of him I met so many wonderful people worldwide! =) <3
