Hmm, lemme see.. from my list, i've already met Linda & Felix from AF, and recently Shawal! ..next nak jumpe Alif from OIAM, Pierre Andre ..and other favs like Val Kilmer, Jonny Lee Miller, Joe Cole (Chelsea) & Devon Murray, who acts as Seamus Finnegan in the Harry Potter movies.

American Idol TOP 8 sing 'Shout to The Lord' on Idol Gives Back!
Movies:
I like indie movies and movies with good storylines. Not into mindless action movies - i've fallen asleep in the cinema during action movies! Movies are life-impacting, shaping the conscience and outlook... In just 2 hours in a cinema, we get a glimpse of a myriad number of experiences we might never have the opportunity to encounter in a lifetime! Far from being mere entertainment, movies are a window to the world around us, a glimpse into people's lives and the circumstances they encounter, a slice of everyday life, treating us with gems of insight as we witness people of diverse cultures, races and vocations thinking, living, dealing and developing! Last but not least, movies are also a showcase of talent and craftsmanship :)
erm.. i made a slideshow of me top 50 movies... but apparently it makes my page heavy to load on some servers... sigh.. but please check it out on my BLOG :)
Television:
Formula One Races - watch em all Live!
Inntimate Escapes on Discovery Travel & Living - love the simple elegance of those inns and travel hotels & the delightful Britishy ladyhost
hmm, and some AF?
gosh, i hardly watch TV!! :) Guess i'm not into routine stuff.. i like the sponaneity of cinema and music entertainment rather than having my nights or weekends scheduled around TV series...
Books:
read a lot as a child! Enid Blyton, Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, you name it.. But I read much less nowadays.. with the exception of Harry Potter. Other influential books : 10 Smart Things Gay Men Can Do To Improve Their Lives - Joe Kort, Trading To Win - Ari Kiev, Alice In Wonderland - Lewis Caroll, William Wordsworth's Prose & Poetry, The Bible, The Little Prince - Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Heroes:
George Michael, Mariah Carey.. and Michael Jackson! - he not only sings and dances well, he writes his own songs and does the keyboard & drum arrangements on his albums.. so much industrious and creative effort going on behind the scenes, which he's never bragged about...He's an under-rated genius!
Favourite movie character : AUSTIN POWERS, baby! Oh, Behave!!
