Following the news conference first George Clooney, then Renee Zellweger made their way outside to greet their adoring fans.

"I'm excited..."

We hope to get a picture with George today. That's all we want. We've been waiting a long time and we're very cold.

An estimated 3-hundred people braved the chilly day to wait for the stars to come out.

The group had already begun to gather when the media went inside just before 11.

George and then Renee emerged just over an hour later.

"I want a sniff at this. I want to see them. They're a big deal, obviously," said one in the crowd.

All the people here have some sort of strategy to try to get as close as possible to the stars.

As the stars got close, the crowd started to push forward, and sometimes strategies became a little physical.

With George and Renee in their midst, however, the Minnesota nice crowd remained polite and the stars reacted in kind.
