Tori Spelling draws huge crowd at Tampa book store

Tori Spelling's first words of her interview with Virginia Johnson from Tampa Bay On Demand:
"Tampa Rocks! This is the biggest book signing I've ever had!"

Reality star Tori Spelling, who launched to stardom as Donna Martin in her dad's Aaron Spelling's hit show 90210, has been in movies, tabloids and now, on the Oxygen Network show "Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood."

She is a best selling author, has an exclusive line of jewelry with HSN and visits the Bay area for work frequently. Virginia caught up with Tori at a book store while signing her latest piece of prose for her fans uncharted terriTORI

Here's Virginia's account of the event:

"I'm  not kidding - Barnes & Noble was so packed, police had to help me negotiate the crowd in my crutches!  (I'm fine - it's just an ankle sprain, I'll be right as rain in a couple days)

Tori greeted her special Twitter fans first. Jennifer Hughes and her daughter Dakotah traveled from Deltona. Jennifer and Tori have been twittering since Jennifer requested a signed book for a donation. Jennifer told me Tori's publicist called the Carrollwood Barnes and Noble, and put them at the front of the line. Dakotah is 12 and has a neurological disorder. Mom Jennifer tells me she is lucky to have lived past ten.

The affable star joked about her 90210 days as Donna Martin, gushed about her kids growing up, and talked about finding the perfect balance between work and family."
