Posted by chel | Club Corbin Bleu News | Saturday 18 April 2009 10:45 am

Corbin Bleu is obsessed with “Free Styling,” according to www.aceshowbiz.com

“I’ve become obsessed with the sport. I love it,” Corbin Bleu tells BlackBook magazine how much he has a love for motocross. “It’s incredible to watch, and I go to all the races now. I have a bike, a Kawasaki 250. I love riding and have a few friends that ride as well, and we go all the time,” he reveals further.

So did Corbin learn to ride for his new moive?

“Free Style,” I did ride. My character rides three different bikes. One of them is his dirt bike, of course. He also rides a Honda Nighthawk as his means of transportation. And he’s a pizza delivery guy, so he rides a Vespa. I got a chance to ride all three. I trained enough to be comfortable on the bike and be able to ride, but I’m not of the caliber of the real racers, so I didn’t do any stunts, but I did ride a lot in the film.”

Corbin Interview

Posted by chel | Club Corbin Bleu News | Saturday 11 April 2009 7:34 am

Here are some few questions from Eiseley Tauginas, writer for www.blackbookmag.com, in a interview.

The video for “Moments that Matter” opens with you playing piano. Do you play any other instruments?

I don’t. I just play piano, but I want to learn guitar and saxophone really badly, especially the saxophone. I love the saxophone. I think it’s just a really beautiful, sexy-sounding instrument.

 

What’s on your iPod right this second?

Every day I go through a different phase because I enjoy all different types of music, but right now I’m in my reggae mood. I’m just in a chill mood. When I’m driving around I’m listening to a lot of Bob Marley and the Wailers. I get my satellite radio on and tune in to The Joint.

 

What’s your craziest fan story?

We were in France for the High School Musical 3 premiere, and anything surrounding High School Musical is nuts. It’s just absolutely crazy. We did a signing, and once we got back in the car to drive away, the car was surrounded and there were literally people on top of the car, banging on the car and banging on the windows. We felt like we were gonna get attacked, they were almost smashing through the car, it was like Dawn of the Dead.

 

Do you consider yourself a role model?

How can I answer that without sounding like a complete pompous asshole? Obviously there’s a lot of younger kids that look up to us, and people are interested. Any time you’re in some sort of spotlight, you have a duty to set some sort of example, and we’re all pretty good people. We all tend to be positive and optimistic and try to do as much as we can, you know, to be good role models.

 

Will you please describe your dream girl?

When I meet her, I’ll let you know.

 

Now that you’re embarking on your music career, do you have any ultimate rock star fantasies?

I’ve always loved magic, and I’m all about the entertainment factor of shows. I’m very much into being onstage having you be surprised, and wonder, “How did he do that?” Or, “How did they come up with that?”

 

Where do you go out?

To be honest, I don’t really go out to bars and clubs in LA, that much. Restaurants are good. I like hole-in-the-wall places, but I like restaurants in New York more. I love Morton’s. Good lobster at Morton’s. The Cheesecake Factory is awesome.
