Photos and Videos of Liam Hemsworth, Jennifer Lawrence, and Josh Hutcherson at GMA this week!

March 23, 2012

One of our readers, Kim, was lucky enough to get pictures with Liam Hemsworth, Jennifer Lawrence, and Josh Hutcherson during “Hunger Games Week” on Good Morning America in NYC this week.

She told us, “I got lucky all three days and seemed to be in the right place at the right time to meet them, get pictures with them, and get autographs signed. It was awesome to meet them all. All though it was a bit chaotic because of the crowds, Liam, Jennifer, and Josh were really great with the fans and truly seemed to be enjoying all of the recognition!”

Kim also sent along her photos and videos of The Hunger Games stars arriving at GMA:

Also, since we’ve had a few people ask us about this recently, we decided to as Kim how easy it was to meet celebs who were appearing on GMA ,and if she had any tips. She was kind enough to share some great advice for anyone who may to try to meet a celebrity at the NYC morning show in the future, check it out below:

Now that they have the pedestrian plazas in Times Square, when the weather is nice they film the interviews outside which makes getting pictures and autographs easier. It is great because the stars have to walk outside and we were told that it is part of their appearance on the show to get them on camera signing autographs and taking pictures with fans.
Like I said when the weather is nice they film in the Pedestrian Plaza right in front of the studio, anyone that goes will see the set up for the show and know they are in the right spot (the studio is in Times Square at 44th Street and Broadway). Outside, right in front of the Good Morning America studio, they have barricades set up in a path that the stars follow to make their way to the interview chairs.
With Liam, Jennifer, and Josh they brought them out and they signed while on camera, then they went back inside. A bit latter they came out again to tape the interview, between the commercial breaks during the interviews they would come over and sign more autographs and take more pictures. This is how I got my photos and autographs.
You could also wait by the stage door where they arrive and leave, but this is a smaller area and the stars are usually taken right in to the studio and leave promptly after their interview (the stage door is down W 44th street).
As far a timing, I arrived the first day for Liam at 5:00 am because I was not sure how many people would show up that early, but I realized that 5:00 am was a bit excessive. The next two days for Jennifer and Josh I got there a bit later at 6:00 am and that was still early enough to get a good spot on the barricade.
Good Morning America films from 7:00 am -9:00 am and the interviews are usually done a bit after 8:00 am. My biggest tip is to make sure you are in the front row right up against the barricade. If you are behind that first row, your odds of getting a picture or autograph are slim.

Thanks again to Kim for sharing her amazing pics, advice, and story! If you have a celebrity sighting to share, let us know about it at olv@onlocationvacations.com!
