Champ lui-pio

i saw him on tv in his band's vid "the day you said goodnight".

i thought, "This guy looks damningly familiar..."

then i realized it. he looks like (at some angles) THE Josh Hartnett.
hmmm, maybe i was being a little cross-eyed again? my sister just laughed and said, "maybe... if you squint, i guess."

she said he looks like atom from 5 and up. no way does he looks like atom... i mean yeah, they're both dork-skinny, but as far as similarity goes, that's pretty much it.

i do think he looks like josh, or at least he reminds me of him.i stand by this, like i do when i say Julius Babao reminds me of Colin firth.

anyway, i searched champ on the net to get the skinny (no pun intended) on him, but very few came up and most of the results had identical infos, so i dropped my obsession. i finally saw him in person and... well...

let's just say he didn't live up to the josh hartnett part. he didn't remind me of josh at all. he actually reminded me of someone i've long forgotten. are you ready for this?

Champ Lui-pio reminded me of...

PIDO DIDO!

from the 7 up fame! it's crazy but he really did.

Anyway, so Champ is photogenic. i'll settle on watching him on tv.
But what struck me really was the rhythm-- Roll martinez is the man's name. he sounds like the coolest brit rockstar Noel Gallagher.
he really does. you need an expert ear of an oasis fan (like myself) to tell between the two. it took me about twelve seconds to tell that it wasn't noel when i first heard Hale's song "Here Tonight".

let me share you an anecdote that i personally find insulting. i found out a few months ago that my sister thinks Edward Scissorhands is less of a klutz than i am. apparently, she thinks everything i touch will immediately be placed with a curse that will destroy it soon after. ostensibly so, she buys two cds-- an original copy (which i am not allowed to touch) and a pirated or burned copy (which i can scratch and break anytime i want).

WTF?

hey, at least i get my own copy, right? and we're still feeding the money-machine record companies their rightful cash.

Moving on, everyone, the Champ crush has now disappeared. i now find myself drooling over the uber-hot Rei Marasigan of sandwich. he reminds me of the frontman of Jane's Addiction, or as i call it, "Dave Navarro's Band".

Rei has a daughter, if i'm correct. i watched him on myx live and he said something about a song that he wrote for his daughter. i thought, "Oh how sweet" then they played the song and i thought "oh what a piece of melodic crap". i'm not going to be the plastic chick and say, "i like sandwhich because of the music and i think rei is cute."
i'm going all out, "I'm not into Sandwich, but i think Rei is hot, and i'm willing to propragate the band so they'll earn more money and plaques which means they'll be more popular, leading them to more gigs and shows, which means i'll see more of rei."

there. so i get my healthy dose of marasigan, marasigan gets a healthy overdose of money and fame. everbody's happy.

that's all i want, you know. i want everybody happy.

toodles!
