For a group of castaways who are supposedly isolated on a remote tropical island, they certainly seemed to be enjoying a lot of company. The cast of Lost was greeted by thousands of cheering fans when they turned out for a launch party to promote the third season of their hit show.
British favourite Naveen Andrews got into the spirit of things by wearing a garland of flowers over his printed shirt when he turned out for the beach-front event. And the mind-bending drama's hunky leading men, Matthew Fox, who is better known as Dr Jack, and Josh Holloway, who fans will recognise as Sawyer, likewise seemed to be enjoying the attention as they rolled up to the exclusive bash.
Canadian bombshell Evangeline Lilly had swapped her character's jeans and tank tops for an elegant floor-length gown, while the statuesque Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who generally goes shirtless in the programme, was looking rather more dapper in head-to-toe white linen. Australian actress Emilie de Ravin was likewise on hand for the soiree, along with Lord Of The Rings star Dominic Monaghan, who plays her onscreen admirer Charlie.
Each of the actors was welcomed by a loud cheer from the throng of fans when they made their entrance at the celebration, which was staged at Waikiki on the Hawaiian island of O'ahu, not far from where the series is filmed. "This doesn't happen every day," confessed Terry O'Quinn, who plays the shaven-headed Locke. "I'm not used to it. I've never been to a Hollywood premiere, but can't imagine anything surpassing it."
