When Canadians go bad

Living up to a variety of stereotypes Canadians hold about themselves*, J.D. Fortune admits he was a jerk on "Rockstar INXS" thereby negating any hard won bad-boy points he had built up what with the "I love INXS more than they do" and the tattoos and the cake.

"Really everybody on that show taught me to see things using my peripheral," Fortune explained. "I was very much focused on becoming a part of INXS from the very beginning to the very end and for the rest of life ... so that's where my heart was at, my mind and my body were kind of going, 'Well, maybe I have to do this 'cause there's this guy who does it this way, and she sings like this and he sings like that.' And I had to forget all that and just be myself again. And I was trying to do the 'Oh, I'm in Hollywood, check me out, check me out,' and meanwhile I just needed to be myself."

Which reminds me; my tattoo fund remains at zero. Time to start work on making this the blog of choice to performance art funding bodies, the super-rich or possibly tattoo artists with too much time on their hands.

*These stereotypes are rarely held by non-Canadians who, having more than one neighbour, rarely find Canadia interesting enough to merit any prejudices one way or the other.
