He's the man!

I am an avid fan of this English Actor and Martial Artist, Jason Statham and I would like to dedicate this post to my co-blogger "Michie" who is also an avid fan like me.

Jason Statham was born on September 12, 1972, in Sydenham, South London. Wow, we were born on the same month and year! Yet he was born five days before my mom brought me into this hostile but beautiful world of ours. His name is "Jay" which reminds me when my son Jerry was still a newborn baby, I wanted to give him name "Kenneth Jay" but it was never pushed through :(

Anyway, Jason's passion is diving and he was a member of Britain's National Diving Squad where he was spotted by an agent. He was a model of the clothing brand Tommy Hilfiger before he became an actor. The first movie of him that I watched was the"Transporter 1". Since then, I have been looking for his other films and have watched the Transporter 2 and 3 and the rest. His latest film is "The Expendables" with Sylvester Stallone and Jet Lit which I've already watched, of course :D

I have read somewhere that he normally performs his own fight scenes and stunts, cool!

He is unmarried but was in a relationship with model Kelly Brook for seven years. They broke up in 2004. Since April 2010, he has been dating 23 year-old Victoria's Secret model, Rosie Huntington-Whitely. Hmmm.
