Lost BOTW
Well, it's time my BOTW got Lost. Which, of course means that my new BOTW is...Naveen Andrews
When Lost first started, Didder and I had two comments on it - hers being 'I like Sawyer,' and mine being 'Sayid is sexy.' While Lost has tons of hotties on it, Sayid was mine. He's strong and sensitive and smart and brave and skilled (and good guys with guns are sexy). Then all of a sudden there was hardly any Sayid on the show and I was all sad. :( Now he's back and that makes me happy. :)
But anyway...about Naveen. Naveen was born in London on January 17, 1969 
(which makes him the glorious age of 38!) . He studied at London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama, and when he was 16 created quite the scandal by moving in with his math teacher (with whom he had a son when he was 23). (That would be an unfortunately.)

(That would be an unfortunately.) In his 20s he was bad into drugs and alcohol and had to come to the States for rehab, but that's when he was finally able to get his foot in the door with acting. He did some movies (many of which I've never heard of), but then he got the role of Sayid on Lost, so now I know him! Also, last year I got to see him in Bride and Prejudice ('member that movie chelleybutton?:D ), in which he sang and danced and ohmigoodness if that's not one of the cheesiest movies ever. (But it's cute.) It was so fun/funny to see him in it.
In addition to singing and dancing, Naveen also plays the guitar, so he can serenade me with the guitar and then ask me to dance. And of course, he's from London, so he can do that with an accent. (Although hearing his real accent throws me off, cuz he's Iraqi on Lost. But accents are sexy.)Unfortuantelies: he smokes, he's 5'8", he keeps living with these (much) older women (um...hello? what's wrong with us young'ens?), and he has a kid.
There's really not much info on this man. At least not that I can find. So if you girls (or boy apparently [hi Josh!]) want to look, you're more than welcome to contribute to my post! ;) And if you don't, that's ok. He's still my BOTW, cuz Sayid is sexy!

of course i remember bride & prejudice! in fact, i was all ready to bring it up until i saw that you did :) ... that was the first time i ever heard of sayid/naveen (so i think of that as normal for him, and it's weird to see him in lost;) ... and i think he's a good botw for you, aside from all his unfortunalities (but i've heard you talk about him more than once;)
I love him in Bride and Prejudice! It's my "fav" movie right now, as Georgie would say. I had no idea he was on Lost. Maybe we should start watching!
i like sawyer.
but yes, sayid is sexy, and he shouldn't have been gone from 'lost' for so long. his british accent sounds funny to me, too.
who's georgie?
lost is too confusing to start now, but if you go back to the beginning it's so good. (although 3 years later, still no fan knows what's going on, so...yeah.)
i agree with melilot - "lost" is best if watched from the beginning. but i'd think most video stores would have it on dvd.
Georgie (Georgina) is Darcy's sister. She has the cheesiest lines in B&P. For example "Will told me about your fab time in India" (or something like that)
i just can't believe you've seen it too, kimberly, AND it's your fav movie right now! :)) i thought it was kind of obscure ... (but terrific;)
Do you guys watch House? The main guy there, I don't remember his name right now, is also British but pulls off other accents with ease! It's fun to watch him in an interview and then see the show. He also used to do sketch comedy which is really fun to watch. Josh downloaded a few episodes back when we were up all night with Katie.
i love house!! and yes, i completely agree -- fun to hear him on award/talk shows using his british accent ... but i haven't seen the BBC shows (only heard about them) -- yet another reason we ALL need to get together for a "media" weekend! ;)
I've seen "Bride & Prejudice" too! Normally I'm all about cheese, but this one was a bit too much. Guess I won't be stealing this BOTW either. Hmm... It's been a while since I've stolen a BOTW. What's with that!?
i like house, but for some reason i never get to watch it. but yeah, i know the guy.
and linda, i'm having to be careful who i choose cuz your such a little hussy!
and the other reasons you haven't been stealing BOTWs are you haven't been here for a long time (too long!;) and you have a BOTW of your own .... :P
on another note: yeah, B&P was a bit too cheesy, have to agree; the redeeming factor was the snake dance though -- cheesy but hilarious!
B&P has the wonderfulness of songs which means that Aiden loves to watch it as much as his parents. He dances along and that way over rides any cheese.
awww ... :)
I love the part where the lifeguards run down to the beach singing (during the "Take me to love" song.) The surfers are pretty great too!
