A bucket of water on a drowning man?..... Or a bucket of water on a horny woman??!! :cold shower 1
Well, I wouldn't see it as a problem if he wanted to do it for himself. I thought he was proud of who he is and wouldn't want to change who he is to suit Hollywood...that lasted! I suppose the business is geared towards looks but, I don't see a problem with his teeth :hmm: I wouldn't allow myself to be influenced for silly things like that if I were an actress. :roll: But I suppose what puts bread on the table...
I always thought his teeth looked pretty good too. Then, there would be another angle and some spaces were more noticeable. Most actors want to be able to be shot from any angle. If your teeth don't look as good from one side and another actor's teeth do; it may make the difference in getting the job, especially if your teeth are going to be several feet long on a movie screen. He may have never done it if he didn't already have to wear the nightguard. May as well get double benefits if you have to wear it anyway. :wink:
I should add I'm a big - teeth and hands girl. That sounds bad. :plotting Guess I should say I notice them first, so anything to make them better; I'm for.
GG

Sorry, if I confused you, Silvia - it means, like you're as much use as a chocolate fireguard in keeping me on the straight and narrow :wink:

GRUFFUDD FEARED REJECTION OVER NAME
FANTASTIC FOUR star IOAN GRUFFUDD was so worried he would be rejected by Hollywood directors, he considered changing his name. The actor revealed agents encouraged him to change his name to 'John' in fear his traditional Welsh name would prevent him from landing film roles, but he refused. He says, "They told me that I was going to be pigeon-holed as a Welsh actor and would only get Welsh roles. "I don't what to work with those people if that's how narrow-minded they're going to be. I am proud of who I am."

Is Mr. John Griffin coming?
IMHO, no, he isn't, this is just Contact Music as usual, picking old news and giving them a new twist and a headline worded for effect.
Thanks for the snippet, Annee.
That content is years old, Contact Music just made it sound recent so there was actually something to discuss about Ioan. We all know how much he apparently loathes the idea of changing his name and unlike the magazine spread, I think we can guarantee that is a view of Ioan's that would never change.
That content is years old
It did not sound new to me either: "That's how you spell my name - My name is my name - We have learnt how to say Schwarzy - ... - et cetera".
I decided to post it all the same to find confirmation to my idea, to see whether YoZoners found it familiar, too.
Actually, I think it may have come from this snippet in the Daily Express today - promoting Agent Crush, I think, but really just keeping him out there while things are quiet - at least his agents are working
for him, for once! Click on the thumbnail....
As for likening himself and AE to Burton and Taylor....... :rotf:
(I'm sorry, Welshboy, gorgeous and talented as you are, :shock please!)
I think you ladies are right. Old news all of it,with an updated slant,that's all. It's crazy how things like that can get so easily distorted, isn't it?--------You're right, Stevie,about the Burton/Taylor comparison--------that's a pretty loooooooooong stretch of a statement for Mr. Fantastic to be making right now,if indeed it's something he really said!
It did not sound new to me either: "That's how you spell my name - My name is my name - We have learnt how to say Schwarzy - ... - et cetera".
Considered how many times his names gets misspelled, Ioan is still far from the level of fame Schwarzenegger has reached (I think I've already said it before, but how many times does "Schwarzenegger" get misspelled?). :wink:

In fact, it is hardly uncommon and surprising that some old info is revived when there is nothing new to keep a name out there.

:lol: Flying high, isn't he?
Annee, forgive me, but that article just repeats the one before.
