Name of the Fangirl: Michelle
Fangirl’s Occupation: International Administrative Assistant at the University of Pittsburgh
What is her fangirl interest?
Star Wars is my all time favorite, from the movies, to books, to collectibles. My favorite character is Darth Maul because he’s so mysterious. I also love Doctor Who, Donnie Darko, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Titan A.E., Transformers, and Comic Books (especially Deadpool). Anything Sci-fi, horror, or paranormal sparks my interest
Why did you decide to shine the spotlight on this fangirl?
I’m always known as the girl with a Star Wars problem. I have met Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca), Jake Lloyd (Young Anakin), and Matthew Wood (General Grievous) when they came to town for comic book/toy conventions. I have several copies of all the movies, and too many collectibles to count, with my favorites being my Darth Maul model and my Luke Skywalker green fiber optic lightsaber. I feel like I relate to the characters in the movie Fanboys more than anything.
How does this fangirl express her fandom?
Everyone I know, or even have been acquainted with knows I love Star Wars. I have even ended an interview with the CEO of my office discussing our love for Star Wars. I am also known for wearing a Darth Vader helmet at parties just for fun. I own so much Star Wars clothing, and most of them are from Her Universe. One of my excuses for having no money is because I HAD to purchase Star Wars outfits.
What is her favorite quote or personal motto?
“愿原力与你同在! “Which is “May the Force Be With You!” in Chinese.
What is her favorite fangirl item that she cannot live without?
My Star Wars movie Collection.
