Rupert Grint
Rupert Grint, or like to be known as Rupey or Rupe or Weaselby by Princess Siti Grint, was born on Wednesday 24th August 1988. That makes him 17 years, 10 months and blah blah blah days and blah blah blah hours and blah blah blah seconds. He was plunged into the world of movies and fame and stardom when he was only 11 years old acting as the very famous Ron Weasley (yes, not only Harry Potter is famous, so is his best friend Ron). After his brilliant role as Ron in the first Harry Potter movie, Philosopher's Stone, he was casted as the permed-haired young scientist wannabe in Thunderpants. As he grew up, more girls have been queuing up to propose to him (okay, so maybe just me). After rave reviews of his brilliant acting in Goblet of Fire (some said that he almost stole the limelight from Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson), he acted as Ben in Driving Lessons and the movie has been chosen to play in Tribeca Film Festival and Cannes Film Festival. Right now, he's shooting the fifth Harry Potter installment. Though Ron is very dorky and sometimes not so brave and can be quite an idiot and has an emotional range of a teaspoon, the only similarities between Rupert and Ron are fear of spiders and big family. Rupert is unique. He rode the unicycle and played the Australian aborigines instrument thingy called didgeridoo. If he's not an actor, I bet he'll be good in Cirque de Soleil. Haha! But he's like any normal teenager; he loves to build model aeroplanes and play golf (heard he's really good at it).
Famous quote from Rupert: “Being famous is wicked. But it's better to be normal.” (PSG's Note: Good on ya, Rupe!)

Jake Gyllenhaal
You can say that Jake is one lucky chap. He's born on 19th December 1980 into a family of talented people; his father is Stephen Gyllenhaal (Director), his mother is Naomi Foner-Gyllenhaal (Screenwriter) and his sister is Maggie Gyllenhaal (Actress). His god-mother is Jamie-Lee Curtis and he was taught to drive by family friend, Paul Newman. He started as a child actor in City Slickers alongside Billy Crystal. Then he appeared in films such as Josh and S.A.M and Dangerous Woman. He then got his first starring role as Homer Hickman in the heart-warming story of an aspiring rocket scientist in October Sky (I cried my eyes out watching this movie). Later, he starred in other films opposite famous and well-respected actors like Dustin Hoffman and Susan Sarandon (Moonlight Mile); Chris Cooper (Jarhead and October Sky); Dennis Quaid (The Day After Tomorrow); Jennifer Aniston (The Good Girl); Anthony Hopkins and Gwyneth Paltrow (Proof); Jamie Foxx (Jarhead). Currently, he has done filming Zodiac as a cartoonist, Robert Graysmith who searched for an infamous serial killer in San Francisco (think Jack the Ripper). He has won accolades for his role in cult movie, Donnie Darko and Oscar-nominated movie, Brokeback Mountain where he starred as a gay cowboy named Jack Twist. He loves to cook (and good at it too!) and read. He loves Harry Potter (like me) and has named his two dogs Atticus and Boo after his favourite book, To Kill A Mockingbird.
Famous quote from Jake: “First, it's ‘Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?', then it's ‘Get me Jake Gyllenhaal!', then ‘Get me someone who looks like Jake Gyllenhaal!', and then it's ‘Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?'. Right now, I'm between ‘Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?' and ‘Get me Jake Gyllenhaal!'.” (PSG's Note: Right now, I think it's ‘Get me Jake Gyllenhaal!'. No more in betweens!)

Paul Twohill
Paul is a 17-year-old Singapore Idol 2 contestant who has won many hearts of the young generation and also some girls with his emo-rock style and his wacky weird personality and some do like his weird wacky hairdo that is similar to Addams Family. Addams Family or not, he has the talent so much so that he's now through to the Top 12 of Singapore Idol 2. Before he stepped into the limelight, he was in Catholic High School where he was in a rock band named Ecnerret (Terrence spelled backwards) and has won Catholic High Music Awards 2004 in the rock band category. So far, in the competition, he has sang 3 Doors Down's Here Without You and made one female contestant cried and another male contestant to vote for him 3 to 4 times and not thought for one second to vote for himself. Even though he's wacky, loves to laugh at the peanut butter jar at his home and wants to rampage Toys R Us if the world ends tomorrow, his personal goal in life is quite a serious matter: “Make it big one day doing what I love.” And not just that, one of the things that will make him nervous is “when my voice is having a real bad day because I start to feel that I won't put up a show that is up to standard.” Another one thing to know about him: He has three Friendster accounts now cos two of his accounts has reached the maximum limit of 1000. That's how many friends and fans he has. And he has a fansite made for him by Arshanti at Paul Twohill Fansite.
Famous quote from Paul: “You smell pretty!” (PSG's Note: Aww, thank you Paul! I bet you smell pretty too, though you're somewhere in Singapore and I'm somewhere in Singapore too and we're both quite apart. Heheh!)

Gale Harold
You can say that Gale is my inspiration. Unlike most actors and actresses out there, he started acting late at the age of 28. He was born on July 10, 1969 in Georgia, US of A, which makes him a Cancerian like yours truly. Whoopie! Before he started acting, he was a carpenter and loves and restores Italian motorcycles. Wahey, I love motorcycles too! When he was younger, he acquired a diploma and under a soccer scholarship to begin a Liberal Arts Degree in Romance Literature at American University in Washington , D.C. However, because of some “creative differences” with his coach, he left the capital to study Fine Arts at San Francisco Arts Institute. However, that didn't last long too cos he squandered his academic scholarship and forced to make other plans. Oh Gale! Since he loves Italian motorcycles so much, that led him to several years of restoring and pants-set mechanics with Moto Guzzi motorbikes. So, you're probably wondering: “Man, when will this guy start acting?” Well, you don't have to wait for long cos in 1997, on the brink of financial exile from San Francisco , he was urged by his compatriot Suzy Landau, producer for Francis Ford Coppola (Dracula & Tucker) to take his act to the stage. After being introduced to actor and director Joan E. Scheckel, he re-located to Los Angeles , beginning an intensive 3-year period of dramatic study and exploration. This led him to his theatrical debut as Bunny in Me and My Friend. He also made his feature debut as Booker in 36K. Then he was accepted and completed the Actor's Conservatory Program with A Noise Within classical theatre company. There he appeared in productions like Misanthrope and Cymbeline. Then, he got his breakthrough role as the unapologetic and brutally honest gay Brian Kinney in Queer As Folk which made me love him. Currently, he's acting in Vanished alongside Ming Na as Agent Graham Kelton.
Famous Quote from Gale: “You have to like your character, because if you don't, no one else will either.” (PSG's Note: Wahey, that surely works cos no matter how bitchy Brian Kinney is, I still love that guy! Other than the fact that he has nice ass and very sexy! Hahaha!)

Cold Part Un

PSG’s note before starting her entry: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! I forgot to post up an entry last week! Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!! Okay, at least I post it now =) So this week will be a little special. I will post up twice to make up for last week since I have to post videos of last week’s performances from Paul. Sigh. Oh yeah, the video on the top right hand corner won’t change though for the two posts this week. Anyways, the song is called ‘Cold’ by Crossfade. I fell in love with it after watching a Brian Kinney/Justin Taylor fan video by Malsff. Anyways, thanks to kidd1802 for the video =)

What I really meant to say is I’m sorry for the way I am. I never meant to be so cold to you. Okay, don’t worry, it’s not meant for anyone. It’s just that I’m freaking cold in the office and I feel like peeing 10 thousand times! Honestly, even when we told the building management to increase the temperature a little, it’s still cold in here. It’s like North Pole. Hahaha! Nah, just kidding. Oh yeah, the Part Un thingy is actually Part 1 in French. Hehe! Anyways, I’m in love with that song. It’s sad in a way *sobs* =( Anyways, *still sobbing* let’s update on the guys who I would cry for *sobs*

Rupert:
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, MY DEAR RUPEY RONNIEKINS!!! Muacks! He’s 18! Yay! He’s 18! Woo hoo! *dances the Rupert turns 18 dance* LoL! I haven’t got a reply from Rupert and I don’t expect any actually. Actually, to be really honest, I don’t want to know if he gets it or not. Not that I don’t care. It’s just that I gave that to him and I don’t expect to get any reply from him. You get what I mean? Yeah! Anyways, Driving Lessons is being mentioned yet again as a contender in the EIFF Awards. What’s EIFF Awards? I have no freaking idea except that it’s an Edinburg award thingy. You know, indie movies or movies in general have lots of awards shows not just Oscars and Emmy in a way. So, there’s like the Tribeca thingy, then there’s this EIFF thingy. I guess each state in US have a film award to give away. LOL! I don’t know the results of the awards. But when I do, which would probably be sooner than later, I will post it up in my second post this week! Promise =) Good luck, Driving Lessons! Cool movie! Oh, yeah, talking about Driving Lessons, at last, there’s the trailer for the movie in the US. Here it is thanks to randhr2 for uploading in youtube. Heh!

Jake:
Jake’s got a TATTOO!!! OMG!!! *gasp* Just kidding! It’s fake. I got to know that from dearie Nellie! Oh by the way, just on a side note, you can check out her blog on Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal and other of her obsessions like, err, “She’s The Man”? LoL! Hmm… but mostly, Jake and Maggie. So, check it out. It’s on the links on the right hand side. Just scroll down and click on the name ‘Nellie’ =) Anyways, yeah, I saw the picture of him with the fake tattoo on the arms. You know, ala David Beckham. Haha! I don’t know what I feel about him getting a tattoo, if he’s ever going to get a real one. I mean, I, for one, love clean-cut guys. You know, no tattoos on their bodies sort of clean-cut. Yeah, so guys with tattoos were always a no-no for me. Gale has a tattoo but it’s hardly visible since it’s on his third finger on the left underside, which says ‘Resist’. Anyways, I will get to that on his section in future post. LoL! Focus on Jake now. Anyways, you kinda don’t really see the tattoo. You have to squint your eyes to see the tattoo which is hidden by the “Splash News” watermark. I don’t even know what it says. But it’s visible still if you’re not blind. Haha! So, for this post’s Jake’s section, I would post up a pic of him instead of the usual fanvid. So here’s a pic of him with his tattoo thanks to I Heart Jake. Eeks! No tattoo Jake, please! *hides behind 10 fingers*

Paul:
Paul nailed it this week with two great song choices for last week’s Asian Pop Spectacular. I mean, great as in suitable for his voice. He has chosen to sing “I Want You” by Singapore’s very own Electrico, which is a good song choice for him and I heard he sang that before in his school last year. His voice seemed to sound different last week. His voice is somehow, deeper? LoL! Anyways, the second song choice was, gasp, from Taiwanese boyband, 5566, with “Zhun Jai”. I think that’s how it’s spelled. He did say in his blog before that he didn’t know any Chinese song so instead chose a song that his classmate who sat beside him in class sang a lot of times that he feel like beating the guy up. LoL! Yeah. And surprisingly, he sang well for that song. I mean, he’s not Chinese so singing a Chinese song and sang it fluently, I have to agree with Florence. Here’s the new poster boy for the “Speak Mandarin” campaign. LoL! So here’s the videos! Oh and I attached Hady’s videos as well! People, people, this is your Singapore Idol! Hady Mirza. For me, his closest competitor surprisingly could be Paul instead of the brouhaha with Jonathan Leong. =p Jonathan Leong ALWAYS chose the wrong songs for himself. That guy can’t sing when the pitch goes higher than his low voice. He has a nice tone but I think he’s a little inflexible. Cos it seems that he can see those Rob Thomas type of song. Other than that, he won’t sound good. Well, anyways, enjoy these clips from singaporebeauty!

Gale:
Gale is GOD!!! Well, not just God! He’s the grass, the flowers, the trees, the sky, the Earth, the Sun, the Moon, the Stars and the whole of Milky Way! LoL! Yeah, I’m obsessed. Totally obsessed. I tell you, if I watch anymore Queer As Folk or any of the clips from his movies, I will die! Not in a bad way! Die cos there’s no more fluid inside my body due to excessive drooling. I tell you, this guy is one heck of an actor. I have to say, if directors out there need an actor who can tell a story just by his face with no words being said and no actions done, Gale Harold is for you. No other actor, and I really mean no other actor, can do what Gale did. He’s like a gem in the acting world where good looks is more important than one’s acting ability, ie has the good looks but zilch acting skills. Or has some acting talent but more one-dimensional. If an actor is sad, he’s sad. But he couldn’t do two conflicting emotions at the same time. You get my drift? LoL! So, I will add more of what I think of him here as days go by till you get sick of it. But here’s a video of him in Street Time, a show from Showtime where Queer As Folk is aired as well. He guest-starred in two episodes of the show as a rock star named Geoff Boerdeaus (or however his last name is spelled). LoL! He acted as a drug addict because of the people around him and influenced by his wife. You will actually empathize with the character. Since there’s four parts, I’ll show you in parts for the next four posts. All the videos are uploaded by oOoktlady. Hold on to your seats. So, here’s Part 1 of Street Time. Enjoy! =)

PSG’s Fave Quote of The Week (Part Un):
“Basic rule of advertising and eternal damnation: Once you sell your soul to the devil, he holds the copyright.” ~ Brian Kinney. I love Brian. He’s so quotable. LoL!

That’s it for now! Look out for Part Deaux!
