MATT HOLLYWOOD and myself in the new show, super creatively named Matt and Mike live. Hey it is what it says and most TV shows don’t have the balls to go live anymore and thanks to our good friends at FACEBOOK LIVE we can blast the 1.6 billion daily users with our own version of Magic, Celebrities and Mayhem.
That and its been a while since the TV networks gave me another run so I had to do something!!
This Monday the 22nd of August is Celebrity Apprentice and Big Brother star Layla Subritsky and Richard Wilkins “good friend” Suzie Taylor from The Block on Channel 9.
You can also see our other episodes here…MATT AND MIKE LIVE
Wonder if this photo was part of The Block filming?
This is full on!! If you’re squeamish or have just eaten I would definitely look away. Its an anti drink driving campaign by Leo Burnett London. Its part of a Pub toilet Shocker campaign for the Department for Transport’s THINK! campaign. The idea is that you’ll be in the dunny and this face goes smashing into the mirror from the other side you’ll think it was from a car accident and decide to never drink drive. Either that or make you accidentally crap your pants before you get to the bowl and or scare you from ever going to a public toilet again.
The year long filming of my movie “Shooting Goldman” is done, Big Brother series 9 is dusted and I’ve just turned 40 so its time for a party. Had some mates suggest I celebrate in Bali. I have never been to Bali and have always been one of those people who said that they would never go after Muslim extremist bombings in October 2002, but they were 10 years ago. I have friends who have moved there, previously lived there and constantly rave about how incredible it is for the heart, mind, soul and more importantly to me they have awesome cocktails. Oh, and then theres these AAMI ad’s on TV at the moment featuring some Balinese dude called Katut romancing a middle aged australian woman, Julia Roberts Eat Pray Love style. It absolutely cracks me up every time I see it. Im not embarrassed to admit it, but I loved the movie too. Javier Bardem is one of my favourite actors, he’s in it. So enough reasons to go, I’m there!
About 6 months ago I decided to start organising my 40th in Seminyak with the help of good friend Tracey Williams Strano. Tracy runs a wedding company called www.oolalah.com.au and was on my case to sort an invitation. So as you can see I sprayed myself gold and got shot by my best buddy Henryk Lobaczewski, please check his stuff its amazing. This is me as the real Gold-man!
Mikes Bali Birthday Invite
Yes I actually sprayed myself gold for this photo. Things we do huh? So it looks like I have about 55 people coming to Seminyak and the first party has some killer surprises. Really bummed my dad cant come, he is on chemotherapy after having cancer cut out for the second time the poor old buggar. Part of the reason Im having the party in Bali was for him to get away and enjoy himself after his first scare. At least most of my other family members ar coming including my homebody brother Jay. Can you believe he has never been out of the country in his adult life. He wont know himself when he gets back. Anyway get well Dad, and as for the rest of my friends and family, you’re in trouble! Get ready to party.
If you’ve been and want to suggest something for us to do there please post it here and I’d say it will probably be on the cards. Stay tuned for an update of how things go.
Congratulations to the team I worked with on the Emmy nominated and Gold Lion Award winning Great Crusade comedy series. 24 episodes shot in New Zealand during the rugby world cup for One HD and Qantas inflight entertainment had me playing myself, eventually turning into a deranged killer running around a caravan park in New Zealand with a kitchen knife wearing nothing but a bath towel. Usual saturday night really. Produced by big time Hollywood Director Gregor Jordan and director Nathan Earls this was an amazing opportunity for me to showcase my secret acting skills. From this I’ve scored a part in the new Magda Szubanski, Ronan Keating movie Goddess set for release in March 2013 and for the last 8 months Ive been filming another movie about a TV host who believes his friends, family and workmates have been making a reality show about him his whole life, sending him on a quest to prove it. It gets very messy with various shock endings sure to surprise. This looks set for early 2013 release as well. Stay tuned for free tickets to the sneak preview.

When I say Star, I mean Television Presenter and when I say Television Presenter I mean Infomercialist. Hey, you gotta start somewhere. Its national, its paid and you can add your own brand of style and personality to make it shake and bake baby. Its where most big name celebrities today started out. Im loving the old Leonardo De Caprio and John Travolta commercials below, Also check out the list at of celebrities who do infomercials I found. This competition could be your big break. At the very least you will sleep well at night knowing that you helped someone slice and dice easier, grill their food properly, get rid of their big ass zits or mop the floor effectively. Or maybe your just like me and hoping it may lead to a date with hot blonde receptionist from the TV station who wouldn’t normally talk to you. Is it weird that I left my make up on when I asked her out the other day. I digress.
So make your video and upload it to the Danoz Star Search Site, then get your friends to like it on the Danoz Facebook Like page and the job could be yours! Just for liking your video your pals can win plasma screen TVs, Digital cameras and other cool stuff.
