first off, i apologize for the font here, i can't fix it for some reason!
If you really want to know me, read my blog or ask! order your dvd copy of Naked Boys Singing the Movie now at www.nakedboyssingingmovie.com or TLA.com!!!!! for media or press requests, contact [email protected]!! shameless plug, i know, $%^& off, it's MYspace!
Sooo... I'm an 'entertainer' in Los Angeles (not a stripper except on special request!), aspiring photographer (i'm pretty damn good, but my own worst critic lol) and insatiable learner. I love traveling, languages, interesting people with senses of humor, and design. I embrace the kid in me, am kind of a horny elegant nerd, and cherish my friends. I'm certainly no angel, but these days i try to keep my devilish side contained to my smile.
I was raised to be extraordinarily independent, and one of my greatest journeys has been learning to truly give myself to friendship, revel in others' contribution and create real partnership with my hubby mike. I've been fortunate to work for years in an industry that let's me try new things every day and work with people that inspire me endlessly. I feel honored to be able to inspire others in return with what i do. I'm a big advocate for dancer's rights, though in the big picture there are many other rights to be fighting for!
I'm here for networking too, SO... blahblahblah, some name dropping. I've danced with Madonna, Michael, Britney, Cher, Whitney, Christina, Mariah, Bowie, Prince, Elton, Beyonce, Celine, Ricky, George Michael, John Legend, Rihanna, Pussycat Dolls and lots of people inbetween.
I've modelled for Thierry Mugler, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Fendi, Trussardi, Exte, Gigli, Calvin Klein, Jose Levy, Tommy Hilfiger and others. I've worked with many great photographers like Herb Ritts, David Lachapelle, Mary Ellen Marks, Peggy Sirota and Sante d'Orazio.
Been in a slew of culty movies like Showgirls, Rent, Madonna:Truth or Dare, Goldmember, Charlie's Angels and Newsies and worked with some great directors i admire, like Tarsem Singh, Paul Hunter, Matthew Ralston, David Fincher, Dominic Sena, Joe Pytka, and Michel Gondry, Mike Nichols, Rob Reiner and McG.
More than anything it's just been really really fun.
I've been running around on the film festival circuit for the past few months, so not much new to tell... i did some motion capture work for the movie a Christmas Carol, coming out in '09, and crotch-doubled for Adam Sandler in his new Don't Mess with the Zohan movie, had a VERY brief flash in a recent episode of Dirty Sexy Money (damn those editors). i performed with the world's (and my)fave gaysian comedian Alec Mapa in january, and will be again in june, and look for me in the movie "Bolden" and the documentary "Move, both due out in '08 i think. i just did will.i.am's new video for 'heartbreaker' as a bunch of living stars. i just finished directing and co-choreographing shows for flava, jeanie tracy and taylor dane, and will be teaching in rimini, italy soon!

I signed up on myspace specifically so i could keep in touch with the younger members of my family, but i love meeting new people, networking and keeping in touch with old friends. IF I DON'T KNOW YOU and you want to be added to my friends, please SAY 'HI' so i know its not just some automated whoring program!
i don't use a whoring program, if i've made a request and don't know you, i just thought you were interesting or talented... or sexy lol. i'm a sucker for sexy. beyond that i admire people who push the envelope, live beyond the norm, are outspoken or stand up for their rights.
my childhood friends knew me as "kevin shih" before my step-dad adopted me, so maybe this will help if someone googles me without knowing my name was changed!
peace to you and remember to create adventure, or just acknowledge the one you are having... Layout powered by HOT FreeLayouts Newest / Music / Movies
