oregon islands tree
The guy who owned that island was from Oregon and he decided that he wanted to have an Oregon feeling to it, so he planted pine trees all over the place!
built lay
They built these little tanning booths for Brooke and I to do nothing but lay down and tan all over.

I've been a scuba diver since I was 16 and I think that was one of the reasons they chose me.

Brooke was special in the sense that we grew up together on that island.
Brooke might tell a different story, but I've always loved the water.

We also shot at a location that was an Aboriginal sacred ground for the shots coming up the cliff.
believe direction fate plans sudden took truly
I truly, truly believe that I was going in that direction and all of a sudden fate took me and put me here. It's like something else has other plans for me.

I sat backstage and had a beer with Richard Chamberlain, Paul Newman, and Princess Grace.

I thought that would be kind of cool, to make a bad guy look sympathetic.
I had a lot of coaching for the movie and no, I have never sung professionally before.
fate bigs believer
I'm a very big believer in fate.
running guarantees-that clothes
Let me tell you something: if you're on an island for three and a half months and you're four and a half hours by boat from the nearest store, and there's nobody but 30 crew members on the island, I guarantee that you'd be running around without your clothes on.
blue lagoons dallas
Usually I get recognized for The Blue Lagoon or Dallas.

I figured that, if you do a vampire movie in Hollywood, you've made it.
