Name of Fangirl: Megan
Fangirl’s School Grade: She’s in Year 4 in school in the UK.
What is her Fangirl interest?
Megan loves all things Disney but her true love is all things Star Wars, especially Darth Vader. Megan cries when Darth Vader dies. When she met Darth at Disney World on Star Wars Weekends she hugged him and tried to kiss him. This weekend we have been at Star Wars Celebration where she has met some of her favourite stars but her highlight was meeting her hero, Mark Hamill, who also signed her wheelchair.
Why did you decide to shine the spotlight on this Fangirl?
Megan has Cerebral Palsy and is very determined and doesn’t let it stop her. She’s always up for Jedi Training at Disney World (despite the fact that she’d rather hug Darth Vader than fight him!) She really does live her life by Yoda’s “do or do not, there is no try.”
How does this Fangirl express her fandom?
In everything she does. Her wheelchair has custom made Star Wars wheels (licensed by Lucasfilm!). She has Darth Vader glasses and all she wants is Star Wars things right down to her 9th birthday cake!
What is her favorite quote or personal motto?
There is no such thing as can’t.
What is her favorite Fangirl item that she cannot live without?
Her Darth Vader glasses or her Darth Vader shoes. Megan is in the photo supplied. Here she is meeting Mark Hamill. Megan is on the right (on the left is her twin sister Evelyn who loves Princess Leia).
