I saw them first! (Future Celebrities)


How many times have you wondered where all these famous people come from? Dana Skullface, Alejandro Movist�rbar, Fernando Arrabalesco...Have they always been famous? Were they born famous? Well, no, of course not. So: Who saw them first? Who recognised their talent? If you had known them when they were still virtually in the cradle, would you have seen that here there were stars in the making? Oh yeah, I bet you would. Who are you trying to kid? Come on, give me a break.
The fact is you would be too busy staring at Gillian L�pez, Brad Pittbull and Thingy from the Lord of the Chandler Bings to see that the STARS were there right before your very eyes.

So wasn't it lucky that I was there? Something in an invitation to a solemn confirmation ceremony, something in the frantic jumping up and down on an inflatable castle, something in the air tonight (thanks Phil) told me that it was them, or they were IT.

So here they are, those future stars, the ones to look out for (get their autographs now, tomorrow you won't be able to get through the screaming crowds): Carlota, Tom�s and Eduardo.

And remember: I saw them first.

PS. Sorry Carlota and Co. but I really think Hugo should go first because let's face it, he's the only one who's actually done anything.

Apparently Tom�s is soon to be starting a short film but I'll believe that when I see it.

So pull your socks up everyone. Lazy bunch of *+&%$!*s!!!

Hugo!

Isn't he gorgeous?

What a beautiful smile! But then of course Hugo Mboume has lots of things to laugh about: his mother, for a start, no only joking ha ha. No, seriously you'd be smiling too if at the grand age of EIGHT YEARS OLD!!! you'd already starred in a short film. The film "Cara Sucia", a heart-wrenching story about the rejection a little boy feels at school due to the colour of his skin, still hasn't been released, so keep your eyes open for it!

Apart from acting, Hugo enjoys playing with the see-through lifts at the Reina Sof�a when he's in Madrid, not wearing all his clothes when he's in Barcelona, and giving his mother advice on her love-life. (See Auri's blog)

His originality also extends to his imaginary playmate: whereas other children invent DIFFERENT children for their imaginary friends, Hugo has another...Hugo! A bit self-centered it may seem, but hey, in acting that's a job requirement, isn't it?

Carlota!

Mooooooo

Carlota Anderson (right) smiles bravely although she's with people who are not famous or popular, such a generous soul.


What can I say about Carlota "Moo" Anderson L�pez? Carlota, writer, medical school dropout, philology student, sister of poor Nani "Lorena" Powerpuff, she is better known for her annual watering of the plants, although she also does bushes occasionally in parks, but that's not water.

Theatre-goer, museum-goer, artgallery-goer and park-goer, Carlota can often be found stalking famous celebrities at different locations. She'll happily chain herself to the railings of the Hotel Palace to catch the eye of one Fernando Barriobajo, or just as easily hop on a plane to gatecrash a private London party in the hope of chatting to Squirrel Moo, the famous crop circle investigator, currently researching the "Retiro L�sbico" phenomenon, ie., where did all the squirrels in Retiro park get to and have they all gone gay?

First certificate rating: only a B.

Tom�s!

Tom�s (middle, smiling) with some of his cronies, on a bus.



Hanging around with Tom�s Oldcastle the film director is always a Hollywood experience. Whether it is visiting a museum or visiting a museum, nothing escapes the eagle eye and the viper tongue of Tom�s. His earliest experiences as the baby that everybody turned away from have culminated in his now renowned antisocial behaviour. Occasional defender of Ross the Pig (they were taking a break, yeah, right), arch-enemy of Cross Andy, whose ex-girlfriend was easy prey to his pseudophilosophical charms, he has often incensed his friends and family by preferring the company of middle-aged strangers on public transport.

He is also suspected to have got off the bus in a furtive manner, although luckily the rapid use of a mobile phone defused a potentially critical situation, ie. we thought he was trying to ignore us. Thanks to Eminem and the lyrics of the song "Stan", Tom�s has successfully overcome perhaps the most serious hurdle in his career, namely, liking Phil Collins, who said "hello, I must be going" in 1982, but didn't. The only question that remains to be asked is whether Oldcastle's films (as yet unfilmed) will mirror his harrowing personal life and that of those around the Polish-born film-maker-to-be.

First Certificate rating: B

Eduardo!

Eduardo S�nchez is an unknown quantity, a rough diamond we could say, but whatever he does he does it with style. His numerous skills include design, following certain boy groups around the country, modern dancing (often to be found entertaining undiscerning (and disconcerted!) tourists at Puerta de Sol singing "Mar�a de la O" for some loose change)(hmmm, must do that again sometime), psychology (a staunch admirer of the enigmatic rubber Doktor Froid), disappearing to foreign countries without notice, not answering emails, or just posing pretty as here in this pic...

Latest news: Eduardo has added patchwork to his repertoire!!!

First Certificate rating: B
