Christian...

I first saw Christian Bale in A Midsummer Night's Dream(movie version)... He played Demetrius in it... And I got only one word to describe him: Gorgeous... Haha... Really... He looked handsome in the movie and towards the end of the movie, there is a scene where he was without clothes... And that made me drool... Really... If you really get to see the show on TV, you will get what I mean... (Why is he without clothes?? Those who know the Shakespeare's story will know why... And those who dunno, please go borrow or rent the movie to watch, or read the play...) ;oP

In the film American Psycho, he plays Patrick Bateman... I like the executive look he has in the show...(I also liked the fact that he was a psychopath... Am I sadist or what??) The show is a bit gory, but overall, it was not bad... He acted finely and looked great... Haha... ;oP

In Reign of Fire, I almost didn't recognize him because of the beard... Haha... It was a nice show about the battle of humans and dragons, with some humans hunting dragons with GPS... ;oP

In Equilibrium, he was John Preston, a top-ranking Grammaton Cleric (government agent) in a world where books, art and music are strictly forbidden and feelings and emotions are crimes punishable by death... But when he misses a dose of Prozium, a mind-altering drug that hinders emotion, Preston, who has been trained to enforce the strict laws, suddenly becomes the only person capable of overthrowing it... Christain dresses a bit like Neo in the Matrix Trilogy, but I liked the fight sequence... And he sure looks cool in the show... Heehee... ;o)

Christain's new movie, Batman Begins is coming to Singapore in June... I am not going to miss it... Heehee... ;o)

Christain Bale's birth name is Christian Charles Philip Bale... He is born on 30 January 1974... He is 1.88m (6' 2") tall... He is an excellent horseman... He has three older sisters: Erin Bale, a musician; Sharon Bale, a computer professional; and Louise Bale, a director/actress... He met his wife through Winona Ryder; she was Ryder's personal assistant... He's married to Sibi Blazic from 29 January 2000 till now... ;o)

He was a talented child actor and wowed critics with his devastating performance in Steven Spielberg's WWII epic Empire of the Sun(1987)... He auditioned with 4000 other kids for the coveted role of James Graham in Spielberg's Empire of the Sun... He received a special citation for Best Performance by a Juvenile Actor from the National Board of Review -- an award specially created for his performance in Empire... He replaced Leonardo DiCaprio as Patrick Bateman for the film American Psycho(2000)... He dropped an amazing 63 pounds for his role as the emaciated insomniac Trevor Reznik in the film The Machinist(2004) with only a single vitamin consultation with a nutritionist to guide him. For the most part he only ate salads and apples, chewed gum, smoked cigarettes and drank nonfat latte... With Batman Begins(2005), he will become the seventh actor to play Batman and the only one since Adam West to stand the same height as Batman, who is 6-feet-2-inches tall according to the comic books... ;o)

Alan...

Alan Rickman... This man is oozing charisma all over... Haha... Sometimes for me, a guy can be attractive because he has charisma... And Alan Rickman is that kind of guy... For those people who have no idea who I am talking about, Alan Rickman is the guy that played Severus Snape in the Harry Potter movie series... Someof my friends are actually shocked or surprised that I actually like Alan... The reasons being he is old and Severus Snape is not attractive at all... ;o)

To justify, he is not that old... He is younger that Sean Connery (A lot of women are fans of Sean)... I never did say Severus Snape is attractive... I mean Alan Rickman HAS charisma, NOT Severus Snape has charisma... A lot of my friends have not seen much of his other movies so they can't really pass judgement... I have personally seen 1 play, 1 MTV and 9 movies that he has been in, so I know he has charisma... A guy don't have to be young to be charismatic and that is no age limit to a person being your idol right?? And he has got a great voice... ;o)

I admit that in Harry Potter series, the character Snape is not very likeable... But not all teachers are likeable... You have to have a not so popular teacher to make the other teachers seem nice right?? Haha... The author of Harry Potter series, JK Rowling, is a fan of Alan too... Heehee... And even though I might not like the character Snape, a lot of women actually like Snape and there are webpages dedicated to Snape... ;oP

Some of my Secondary 3 classmates may not know, but we have actually all seen him act when we are in Sec 3... He played Tybalt in the Romeo and Juliet play we often watch on CD-ROM (this play is the 1978 version, not the Leonard version)... Those who were in the same year as I am and took English Literature for Sec 3 will know what I mean... ;o)

Alan was Han Gruber, the villian in Die Hard(1988)... He was the evil but funny Sheriff of Nottingham in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves(1991)... He was the devoted Colonel Christopher Brandon in Sense and Sensibility(1995)... The scene where he heard Marianne Dashwood (Kate Winslet) singing and playing the piano, then walks into the room and saw her for the first time, was just unforgettable... The entranced look he has on him... Wow... ;o)

He was Metraton in Dogma(1999), a Seraphim, the highest choir of angel, and the voice of God... He sure was funny... I've never seen an angel more groucy than him... Even though Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are also in the show as angels being cast out of the gates of Heaven, Alan made Metatron somewhat down-to-earth... (Dogma is really funny and sure have a lot of eye candies in it... Heehee...) ;oP

He's Phil Allen the hair stylist in Blow Dry and I really like the look he has on his face when he succeeded in thwarting the efforts of his cheating rival in the competition... The thing I don't get about this show is why did they cast Josh Hartnett as Phil's son, Brian... Not that I have anything against Josh, he's cute, but I don't think Josh and Alan looked like father and son at all... Not even behaviour wise... ;oP

Alan was Harry in Love Actually(2003)... He was quite charismatic in it and looked really helpless when Mia tries to seduce him... ;oP

He was made Vice-Chairman of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in 2003... He is romantically linked to politician Rima Horton and has been living with her since 1977... ;o)

James...

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

This man is ranked #1 in the Top Ten Sexiest Men of the Buffy/Angel universe fan poll by the Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan magazine in 2004 ... He is James Marsters... Better known to Buffy/Angel fans as Spike... Can't believe it?? But it's the truth... Haha... He didn't win by a margin... He got 58% of the total votes casted... And that is more than half the votes... Angel only got 23% of the votes... That is how popular he is... Amazing right?? :oP

According to the magazine, fans think Spike is sexy because "Spike’s a combination of what everyone wants. He’s strong and can look after himself, while at the same time he’s vulnerable, sensitive and not afraid to speak his feelings and wear his heart on his sleeve. He’s just wicked enough that you can’t help finding him exciting, but he’s also very charming. But perhaps the sexiest thing of all is that he changed who he was because he wanted to be a better person, for himself and the woman that he loved. Oh, and we suppose his killer physique, sparkling eyes and wicked sense of humor might also have something to do with it."

And this is what fans think is Spike's sexiest moment/episode: "Spike got our temperatures rising quite a bit by appearing semi-naked several times -- but he could not have been sexier when he cuddled up to Buffy in "Touched," held her, looked after her, and simply watched her sleep. Ahhhh, how romantic!"

Personally I agree with the reason and the episode/moment, but I am also touched by Spike in the last episode of season 5 and in season 6... In the last episode of season 5, Buffy died saving her "sister" Dawn, and when Spike saw her corpse, he broke down and cried... And I must point out, at that time, he still have not gotten his soul back... And this shows that he loved Buffy a lot... Even without soul... (This does not apply for Angel coz when Angel turned into Angelus, he made it a point to make Buffy suffer as much as possible...) And in the beginning of season 6, when Buffy came back to life, there is a scene where he told Buffy that every night, after the night Buffy died, in his dreams he will succeed in saving her life... This is what he said to Buffy: "I want you to know I did save you. Not when it counted, of course, but... after that. Every night after that. I'd see it all again... do something different. Faster or more clever, you know? Dozens of times, lots of different ways... Every night I save you." (He still don't have a soul at the point he spoke this...)

James Marsters's birth name is Wesley James Marsters... He is 1.8m (5' 11") tall... He birth date is 20th August and he is supposedly born in 1962, but different sources put different year... He is an American, even though the character Spike is British... He is left-handed (same as me)... He has a huge cult following in the Sci-Fi/fantasy community... There are (literally) hundreds of websites dedicated to him and his immensely popular vampire character 'Spike' on the internet... The Royal Shakespeare Company of Stratford, England, held a 2004 poll asking movie viewers to vote for the actor and actress they would most like to see in the roles of Romeo and Juliet... The winners were James Marsters and Keira Knightley... More than 2,000 people voted for more than 150 different actors for both roles... James, a Shakespearean actor, triumphed over Orlando Bloom, Ewan McGregor, Jude Law, and Johnny Depp... ;oP

David...

David Boreanaz is the second guy that had me smitten... For those who do not know who he is, he is Angel/Angelus/Liam in Buffy the Vampire Slayer series(BtVS) and Angel series(AtS)... I forgot it's Secondary 1 or 2 that I started watching BtVS and he was the devoted, handsome and gentle vampire-with-a-soul who had a romantic relationship with Buffy... After 3 seasons in BtVS, he finally received his own spin-off show, AtS... ;o)

In AtS, Angel moved to Los Angeles (letting go of his relationship with Buffy) and started fighting evil with the help of Cordelia Chase, whom he later fell in love with(Strange but true)... Wesley joined the gang in I think the second season... In season 3 and 4, Angel's son with Darla (2 vampires having a child... Weird...) came into the picture and this teenager also fell in love with Cordelia and even went on to having an affair with her (Angel is crushed by this of course)... Spike joined in too in the 5th,also final, season (It becomes 2 vampires with souls, haha)... ;oP

Both BtVS and AtS got more and more impossible as time goes by, but I'm stll a big fan of both series, coz of Angel, Spike and Wesley (and maybe Connor)... Haha... David Boreanaz as Angel is so romantic and also funny too in the later season, and as Angelus(basically Angel without soul), he is evil... As the Chinese saying goes, girls like bad boys... Haha... So you know what I mean... David's also quite handsome too(I've got photos to prove)... ;oP

He's currently married to Jamie Bergman and has a son, Jaden Rayne, with her born in 1 May 2002... He's ranked #2 in the Top Ten Sexiest Men of the Buffy/Angel universe fan poll by the Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan magazine in 2004 ... (Want to try guessing who is #1??) ;o)
