Tonight, Kingdom Hearts -HD 1.5 ReMIX- made a surprise appearance at Variety's Power of Youth 2013 awards!
These awards recognise actors and actresses who donate to help out charity organisations such as the Ronald McDonald House, Project Sunshine and Free the Children.
Among the guests were Teen Wolf star Tyler Posey, Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev, Super 8 star Joel Courtney, actress Katherine McNamara, actor Austin Coleman, and Beasts of the Southern Wilds actress Quvenzhané Wallis.
As Kingdom Hearts was a featured sponsor, a Keyblade was made available for the stars to take photos with and were able to try out a playable demo of Kingdom Hearts -HD 1.5 ReMIX- available backstage.
You can view some photos from the event below, and the rest are available on Variety.com.

and 2. You linked the second-to-last image about 8 times. After the guy holding the keyblade, every pic is the same one when you click on it.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
Awesome, glad to see KH being used for charities. Looks like the celebs are having fun taking pics with the keyblade, maybe we'll have celebrity KH fans appearing soon?
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
This is actually pretty great ^-^ especially if Nina Dobrev and Tyler Posey became fans x)
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
The photo of Nina Dobrev, btw.

Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
Don't mind me, I'm just spazzing because Tyler Posey is playing Kingdom Hearts. I just kind of want to tweet and ask "Do you like the series?" and if he says yes, go ahead and smile as I watch Teen Wolf reruns.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
M-m-mmm. Nina.
... *ahem!*
This is pretty cool!

I already tweeted him, but it doesn't look like he replies to people ;A;

If he did i would die lol xD

There are already some minor celebs who are fans of the series, but that topic's dead and buried by now.
Love that the series is being used for charity events!

I think you're kinda missing the point of this ceremony and that KH helped sponsored it.

No I was talking about an older thread on this site.

Barring the fact that celebrities are present at this event, that is completely irrelevant.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
^right. I'm not making a big deal of it or anything. Though I see where the misunderstanding is.
Nina is hawt.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
It's rather funny, I recognize fewer celebrity names every year.

That's normal. It never helps either if you're not watching the network they're on. I can name Jared Padelecki(sp?) from Supernatural, but I can't tell you who's on the Disney Channel these days.
Also, it's nice to see that little kid enjoying watching the girl play KH. New fans wanted.

Why can't it be September already. ;-; I can't handle this wait.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
I seriously can't quite pinpoint it but there's something pretty fucking hilarious about these pictures
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
I think it's all the hollywood pretty boy makeup. People who are acting like nerds but don't look like one in the least. And that's neither an insult nor a compliment.
You also have an award recipient in a dress playing the game.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
It's this guy. Ladies, please contain your orgasms.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
I'm with you that I found many of the photos very funny, largely because I can't help but get the feeling that barely any of them, if any of them, actually like the series. Many of the photos aren't even of them playing the game but rather them posing holding the controller lol There are a few of Tyler Posey, but something tells me he isn't a fan. It would be rude to ignore the game considering KH was one of the sponsors.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
^that was what chaser and I were talking about a little earlier. And really he doesnt at all seem the type, but benefit of the doubt must be given.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
Come on guys, Tyler Posey plays video games. He's only 21 and was the same age as most of us when the game was first released almost 11 years ago. If you look at his twitter you can see him geek out over some video game stuff every now and then.

I think that one is a prime example of how much of a dork he is and how bothered he, too, gets when the controller dies.

Guys, please stop dissing them for no reason. They are normal people too. They aren't just pretty faces, and do normal crap too.
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
Actually i heard Tyler Posey considers himself a video game nerd, i can't remember if it was a behind the scenes gag on the set of Teen Wolf or if if was his Imbd prof. i'll have to check.

Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
I'm not dissing, there's just something intricately hilarious about these photos. KH makes me laugh in and of itself, so that combined with the people holding the controllers has me belly laughing
Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
Yeah. Of course they're normal people. I've met my share in the past. It just seems funny and weird.

It's not how you initially approached it though.
Without any information, you jumped down people's throats saying that they were "Pretending to be interested in a game for a magazine. How low society has sunk." and that he wasn't a real fan because "Well, I don't have much respect for tabloids so I don't really know what to think. His jaw isn't exactly dropped and I can't read his expression."
It just seems a bit crazy that you immediately started hating on a celebrity playing a game because they were a celebrity playing a game.
Anyway, this topic is old, irrelevant and beating a dead horse.

Re: Variety's Power of Youth 2013 Features Kingdom Hearts
Yea it's great, i actually met Tyler Posey for like 2 min. when he came to Cali to shoot a movie recently. I was thinking he was gonna be real mature the way he talks but he's actually pretty dorky lol. He was sweet though, it was close to our school so i guess that's why they let a select few of us talk to him.
Sounds pretty cool. xD I'd say a lot of actors are like that.
not sure who Tyler posey is....

Guolty as charged. I try not to be cynical but sometimes that's just what comes naturally. Don't think I was hating on him though. I had no personal gripe with him when I said it. PR works in a lot of ways. Also, as an Aspie, I don't gauge people's expressions well.
On topic, he does sound pretty cool. A lot of actors are like that. The mediocre ones are the ones that are self absorbed divas that Hollywood likes to make fun of. True talents are just average people.
