Oh Mother

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 17:05:20 +0000

Everybody in my life knows what’s real and what isn’t. Apart from my mother, who seems to believe every negative thing that’s written about me! She’s like, “I can’t believe you did this!” I’m like, “I didn’t!” And she’s like, “Yes, you did, I know you did!” … She’ll literally believe a gossip magazine over her own son.

Do Over

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:59:13 +0000

If I literally could go back and do it again, I would try to do it better. I had wanted to be better.

Signature Hair Secret

I just use water. No one ever believes me, but it’s true.

Hundreds of Love Letters

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:49:09 +0000

I’ve never really fallen in love, but I try to be as romantic as possible. A year ago I could’ve walked up to any girl and neither would’ve been interested. I’m looking for someone with character. If I ever find her, you know what I would do? I would write her hundreds of love letters.

Music Fascinates Me

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:46:30 +0000

Music fascinates me, I love it. It’s my passion. And I think I could’ve been very happy with being close to a piano and make a living out of it.

Getting Girls

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:44:32 +0000

At first, girls can feel attracted to that (fame), but then they realise you’re a real human being, with flaws and qualities, and there can be a certain disappointment. Many times girls find out that everything about you was just a fantasy. I think, in the end, I’m just like any other guy. I can’t be what everybody else wants me to be, I’m just me. And you can find many girls that have preconceived ideas of you, or imaginary things and that can be a problem, because when people find out you’re not really like that, they are disappointed. I have to confess that before making this movie I believed that the being famous could help me get more girls, but then I realized that is not as easy as I thought it was. In the end, if you like a girl, you still have to work hard at winning her over! (laughs)

Five Minutes of Emotions

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:41:38 +0000

I didn’t do anything out of the ordinary to be so famous. It all comes down to those five minutes of emotions that you give to people and that’s nice to feel. It’s part of the magic and everything that comes from making movies.
The expectations, the dreams, the fantasies; it’s all an illusion. I’m a very normal guy, I can promise you that.

Modeling

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:38:02 +0000

I was 13 years old and looked like a girl when I started to work as a model. It was a relatively successful career since the androgynous look was in, so I got to work for a few teenage magazines, but never got any bigger assignments since I didn’t look masculine enough. I was really thin with a small potbelly, it didn’t work out in the long run since I didn’t want to work out to look more masculine and I didn’t want to diet to look more feminine.

Photographers

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:33:27 +0000

I don’t care that much about the screaming girls, the real problem is the photographers. A real novelty for them is if I make a fool of myself. As soon as a photographer is nearby he wants me to fail.

… the paparazzi think they have the right to take photos, but I don’t have to give them anything at all. Yesterday it was a gang yelling “smile, smile!” even though I was already smiling, and then I heard: “Oh he’s so boring.” But just a second later they fell into some bushes, and that made me smile even more.

Inspiration

Joni — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:29:16 +0000

I don’t really need to do stuff to relax or get away because all my interests are part of my job. Like I’ll watch movies to be inspired to do other movies. I read books to be inspired. I listen to music to be inspired to write music. Everything I do is to create something.
