I just had in mind “don’t hold up the line, don’t hold up the line, the volunteers will hate you, get this done” and Clif had just wandered over to Jared’s side, so Jensen eventually switched to sign the record and I skipped telling him it was for the TeamLevi charity (because ‘hurry girl’), and pulled out the award and the letters I was asked to hand over and the letter for the award. Jensen looked up, maybe expecting to say “thanks, bye” when I handed over the award and said “on behalf of your fans from around the globe, and I really mean around the world, with this we wanted to thank you for everything you’ve done for us over the past decade and more, for your kindness, for being such a great idol to all of us and your fantastic acting”.. and he stopped and took the award and proceeded to read and check out the reels (this went by way faster than it sounds but alas he did not say “I won’t keep this”), and then he said that it looked amazing and he had the same nice smile on his face like in the morning when we turned up at his photo-op. (I was still waiting for the volunteers to shove me away but surprisingly all they did was waiting).. so he looked a little longer and turned it back and forth and said he’ll check everything out later and said “thanks to you all” and I said I hope he likes it a little.. wished his wife all the best (which I also did in the award letter) and then tried to disappear, but there was a volunteer from ImAlive and he stopped me and said “that was amazing” referring to the award.
That’s really all I can say about this, I think the gesture was the important thing to do and I hope no one is disappointed that it was not done in public. But IMHO it is important to respect Jensen’s wishes and as long as he hopefully got our message, we should be happy about how things went. From what I can say, he really liked it and if you guys want, I can send the letter I put together for Jensen to you.
