Someone posted a message to Kevin in the Guest Book mentioning a night they spent in a buddhist monastery and, of course, that caught my attention - but it could be just a hoax. Well, turns out it was true! Just check out this:
Introducing Kevin McKidd
Yes, it's another interstellar Scot.
CV: 25-year-old Scots actor; played Tommy in Trainspotting and mad Malky Johnson in Small Faces. Catch him in big flicks The Acid House ('intense'), Hideous Kinky, Bedrooms and Hallways and Mike Leigh's fiercely anticipated Gilbert and Sullivan movie ('Yes, I sing').
On Hideously Kinky: 'I have on wor dto say in it. I'm just a total acid-tripped-out Swedish guy in the middle of Morocco who deosn't know why he's there. IT's my favourtie part of the past two years.'
And Bedrooms and Hallways? 'I play Leo. He's 30, gay, with a lot of fucked-up relationships behind him. He's decided he's going to be a bachelor, stay at home and watch telly... quite unusual for a gay role.'
And when Mr McKidd's not acting? 'Piano lessons. That's the only reason I bought my house - to get a piano. It's an old school one - upright and covered in graffiti.'
Last cried: 'Watching Animal Hospitel. I was a bit miserable and lonely at home. This kitten was really ill and had to have an operation because its spine was out of kilter... Oh God! I feel like I'm in a men's group.'
Last kiss: 'Sadly, it was probably my auntie. I haven't had a romantic kiss in quite a long time. Too long a time.'
Ambtions for 99: 'To have a bit more of a laugh. Life's been getting quite serious. I want more stories about mad things that have happend.'
Such as? 'Well, me and my mates went to a Buddhist retreat in Barrow-in-Furness recently. We were supposed to meditate, but we ended up getting hammered with the locals, then waking the monks up the next morning, peeved on the doorstep.'
