I am here for Dating, Friends and Networking

About Me


People call me Spoon, because my name is Stephen Poon. I'm a pretty random guy. I'm a bit of everything you can say. I like learning new things. I'm a crafty guy so I like to make friendship bracelet to friends. Lately I've been learning a lot of spiritual about myself. So then I can become the person I want to be and that is myself. I'm determined to get ahead in life and I eagerly latch onto projects and challenges that further my personal plans and ambitions. Besides all of that, I'm as normal or abnormal as you are. Love the Spoon! and Spoon will love you.
I was one of the 8 contestants on the hit show "The Pickup Artist" on VH1. It's a tale of transformation. For these eight lovable losers, "socially awkward" is the understatement of the year. And when it comes to this lonely hearts club, desperate times call for desperate measures. Enter Mystery , best-selling author and ultimate pickup artist. A former nerd from the Great White North who has discovered the secret to wooing women. Under his expert tutelage, he'll guide this group of hapless horndogs through the rough waters of romance and help them find the courage to overcome their biggest fear, talking to women.
Art and fashion is one of my passions in life. I love walking into random art gallery's and checking out what other artist have to show to the world. The feeling I get is kind of like going into a candy store, but with art. Same goes with when I see a women dressed so beauitul it's breath taking. I'm not about what brand you wear, but how you wear it. So gals who dress up all vintage are the best. Anyways above are a few personal portraits I did few years ago. It's a combination of someone beautiful and fashionable. I'll make more when I have the time. They take too many hours to make.

Most people don't understand what I do till I describe it. For example if they were filming a office breakfast scene. What do you think is in the back ground? You can say stuff like cereal or milk cartons. Well instead of paying thousands for copyright to use those product (which only appears for 3 seconds). I make a generic cereal box and a generic milk label. I have a bunch of examples in my picture gallery. If your interested in my work just leave me a message with subject "Work" and I'll get back to you.
This is my pup Toya . Most people think he's a girl, but he's actually a guy. He's 4.5 years old. I got him when he was about 6 months. Fattiest little puppy there. Pretty much everyone who knows me, knows Toya. I treat him as my son. I'm very protective of him. Right now I'm trying to get him into commercials or even a movie. If you have a dog also. Feel free to leave me a message. We can go walking our dogs and talk about which dog is cuter.
Update: Toya has his own myspace at www.myspace.com/iknowtoya
This is a tattoo I've always wanted. It's 1 black angel wing with in kanji the word fly. I'm going to have it between my wrist and elbow. It represents the hard times I've had in my life and the change that has happened. As a kid I was always the black sheep in the family. I wasn't too happy, but always tried to smile or make other happy. Thanks to being on the Vh1 The Pickup Artist. I have met many wonderful people who have taugh me things to live life. This 1 wing shows even though I was a broken angel I strive to keep reaching for the sky.

My Interests



How I got the slogan : I know Spoon!

One night after filming a movie. The crew and myself went to a local bar. Tired as I was I left early and started heading back to camp. As I was walking away a women from the bar started following me. I think we talked about that's about it. I don't remember what happened next. The next day the guys told me that women kept going up to everyone at the bar saying "do you know spoon?" and since the whole bar was pretty much crew members they all said .. . "I know spoon" and that's how I got iknowspoon.

I work behind the scene often and usually they need extras to just sit or stand. In this little commercial I was one of the main actors. It's about 2 grumpy aliens who are stuck on earth. Things turn around when they found out about Visoda. It was a very very fun project to work on and I made a good friend from it.

A little short clip of my Toya doing some singing. I'm in the background making cat noises to make him talk. His video is pretty popular on youtube with 80,000 hits and Toya's friend Kaiser made a video reply to what Toya was talking about. A youtube video inside a youtube video.

I'd like to meet:
