Is Orlando as sexy as he seems? The merciless test
Looks
Ever since Orlando (27) appeared on screen as Legolas the elf, we were sold:
those eyes, those lips, what a hot shot! He, although, says he is not that
bothered. "It's weird that girls see me like that, it makes me a little
nervous. I try not to take it that serious and just do my job." Alright,
Orli. You do your job and we will drool.
Brains
We cannot be blinded by his beauty because insides count too. And that too
seems ok: after high school Orli went to the best drama schools that he
finished without trouble. Not long after that he got his first role in the
blockbuster The Lord of the Rings. And Orlando might be dyslectic, he is
certainly not stupid. If he was he would never have manage to learn that
tricky Elvish language.
His resume
This hunk hasn't been on that long, but he has already done top movies like
the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean and Troy. The money
Orlando earned as a pidgin thrower at the shooting club is a laugh compared to
the millions he hauls in now. But money doesn't matter to Orli. "I don't
care about the money at all. If I get to kiss a woman in a movie, they
wouldn't have to pay me at all." (note: he never said this) Hm, would he do a love scene with on Orc
for free too?
Specialties
Orlando is a real dare-devil. In 1998 it almost got him killed when he tried
to climb onto a rooftop of a friends. (Blahdiblah we all know this part, and
something about his hobbies, don't feel the need to translate anymore)
