Interview with Hayden Christensen in RIO

Posted by admin with 11 Comments

In Rio, the actor of Darth Vader, Hayden Christensen, reveals: “I like women who make me laugh ‘

What would you do if this face to face with Darth Vader, one of the greatest villains of the seventh art? Well, he would not come to Brazil, but Hayden Christensen, the actor who gave life to the character in the first three films in the saga “Star Wars” made his first visit to the country. The reason was special: he is the poster boy Lacoste and came to Rio to participate in the parade that the designer held at the Copacabana Palace.

The Canadian actor spoke to the report of IG on the afternoon of Wednesday (12) and talked about fashion, career, and has revealed that an ideal type of woman, with personality and sense of humor. Check out the interview below:

iG: What do you think about Brazil? Is there any place in particular you’d like to visit?
Christensen: This is my first time in Brazil and I’m finding it very nice. People are very nice and quiet. I have not had the opportunity to know very well the river, because I’ll get some time (the season of the actor is only three days), but tomorrow I’ll go do tourist programs such as the Sugarloaf, the barbecue … At Corcovado I can not go, because I said it’s closed off to visitors.


GORGEOUS!

IG: In relation to Brazilian culture: you know any director, film or music?
Christensen: I do not really know much about movies and Brazilian culture. This is only my first visit to Brazil. But, I already have the visa in my passport of the country and plans to return sometime in the next five years. Sure, I’ll be back.

IG: What was it like playing a character so striking as Darth Vader in the latest films in the saga of “Star Wars”? That role has changed your life?
Christensen: Interpret a character like that was one of the most amazing things in my life. It was the movie that had the greatest recognition. Also, my brother has always been a big fan of “Star Wars” and we were very excited when I got the part.

IG: You’ve worked with established actors like Samuel L. Jackson and Ewan McGregor. Which one impressed you most? With another actor who would play opposite you?
Christensen: Wow! All were wonderful. I find it hard to choose one, but I would love to work with actors like Sean Peann solid reputation, Billy Crudup and Michael Gambon. I think others would learn from them.

IG: You became known for futuristic movies and science fiction. He had no fear of being stereotyped?
Christensen: I really think people associate me with that kind of movie, but I do not see it as a bad thing. I’m a fan of the genre. I’m still young, I have enough time to do different jobs, they succeed.

iG: What are your upcoming projects?
Christensen: My next film is called “Shadow Chaser”. This is one long action-adventure, the way I like. Everyone would also like us to do a sequel to “Jumper”, but this is a matter of time. We are working on the script …

IG: How did the partnership with Lacoste?
Christensen: I grew up playing tennis, so I always wore too much clothing by Lacoste, mainly polo shirts. When they invited me to be the poster boy of perfume Challenge, I was very happy because I think that the brand promotes an image of healthy people who enjoy sports as I do.


IG: And how do you define your style?
Christensen: I like casual attire and comfortable. And I am a very active person, so I like clothes that have no problem with that mess and leave me free to play sports.

iG: What piece of clothing that you do not give up at all?
Christensen: That difficult question! I do not know if I am so attached to a piece of clothing, I am not so vain, but I really like shoes. Especially boots. I bought these I’m wearing in London a year ago and use it enough. Whenever I’m in a place that is hot or cold.

iG: Today you visited the project Gol de Letra Foundation. How was the experience?
Christensen: I went there and played football. I love it but I do not think I did quite well because I was in boots (laughs). I think I’m better at tennis and hockey, sports practice since small. I know that Brazilians are crazy about football. When the game “FIFA” in the Playstation always choose the team from Brazil: Ronaldinho and Kaka are always the best, at least in the video game.

IG: You seem to be a very shy person. The fame and the paparazzi annoy you?
Christensen: It depends where I am. At my farm in Canada they do not bother me even a little, why not travel there often. But when I’m in Los Angeles, they can be a little insensitive. That’s crazy! They await you at the door of your house and follow you to where you go. If a camera were not as they would be pursuing.

IG: You are considered sexy symbol and has worked with women as icons of beauty Natalie Portman, Sienna Miller and Jessica Alba. In real life, what a woman should do to make you win?
Christensen: I like women who have their heads in place, they have their own opinions and be respected. I really look for a woman with humor, that makes me laugh. I think this is key! And if he is in evening dress, even better.

Our Little Farmer

Posted by admin with 3 Comments

Here is the translation from the November ‘09, German issue of Instyle magazine.

Hayden Christensen talks about farm work and love

normal_instyle_nov09_1

Since Hayden Christensen played the smart Anakin Skywalker in “Star Wars”, you can’t think of the young star brigade without him. Now, on top of that, a perfume was dedicated to the Canadian, who is engaged to “OC“ Star Rachel Bilson. With a sexy unbuttoned polo shirt the 28 year old is advertising the new male fragrance from Lacoste “Challenge“:

Instyle: On the campaign picture there is not one chest hair in sight. Are you waxing?
Hayden Christensen: (laughs) God, no, I never did that. It would hurt to bad. It wouldn’t really pay off, because haven’t got a lot of chest hair.

Instyle: People Magazine voted you one of the sexiest man in Hollywood. Do you like that?
Hayden Christensen: It’s flattering, but i get embarrassed, when someone asks me about it. I’m not really paying attention to my looks. It only takes me 15 minutes in the bathroom.

Instyle: Do you like the new Lacoste Challenge fragrance?
Hayden Christensen: The fresh scent of Lemon and orange and the heavy scent of ginger and dark wood, is reminding me of my fathers smell.

Instyle: What was your biggest challenge?
Hayden Christensen: My brother Tove, my sister Heijsa and I participated in the “Eco- Challenge” in Figi, when I was 21. It was a TV-adventure show, a 500 km race with 50 teams, who have to go threw the jungle on their own. There’s still a You Tube video.

Instyle: What do you like to do in your free time? Something adventures?
Hayden Christensen: I try to win tennis matches, and played against Mats Wilander in a Lacoste tournament for example. And I have a farm near Toronto with chickens and horses. That’s a good balance to Hollywood. We grow bio-vegetables and get our own power from solar-cells. I love to work on the farm and plow the land with my tractor.

Instyle: And your fiance is walking around in rain boots threw the mud?
Hayden Christensen: (laughs) We like to walk threw the woods. But I thinks she prefers to go shopping in Beverly Hills than farm work.

Instyle: Is she giving you styling tips?
Hayden Christensen: She sometimes buys shirts for me. But my favourite one, brought my grandma from Jamaica. It is a Hard-Rock-Cafe shirt.


Thanks Kathy!

New/Old Interview from July

Posted by admin with 5 Comments

Here is an old/new interview with Hayden from July. Seems somewhat accurate, so I thought I’d post it. It is however in German, so if anyone would like to correct any of the typos, please do by commenting or contacting me. Thank you and enjoy!

Hayden Christensen is the face of the Lacoste fragrance “Challenge” – but beauty treatments are not for him. Since he prefers driving to his farm!

2715-large

Since he has played Anakin Skywalker in “Star Wars”, is Hayden Christensen, 28, as one of Hollywood’s hottest newcomer. His good fortune that he has decided at 17 to an acting career. Up to that time they said the Canadian, who is now engaged with “OC” star Rachel Bilson, 27, also requires a career as a tennis star. Since it was a plus that Lacoste – the main sponsor of Roland Garros – he was elected as a testimonial for the new fragrance for men “Challenge”. In Paris, hit OK! the sympathetic Star to talk about vanity, challenges, and his wedding …

Truthfully: in the morning… how long do you need in the bathroom?

Well, Rachel definitely takes more time than I do. As soon as I get out of the shower, I’m ready.

Aren’t you ambitious when it comes to your looks?

I kind of don’t care about that. I believe beauty comes from within. That’s why it’s important for me that I’m clean, when I step out of the shower. I pay attention that I eat healthy and that my body stays fit. I was at a beautician once or twice, but facials just hurt too much.

30 minutes to Seduce Hayden Christensen

Posted by admin with 9 Comments

Here is the interview translated that I posted earlier.

Heroes of the three “Star Wars” Hayden Christensen is my thank you. Darth Vader in custody.



Hayden Christensen, the game of seduction

This beautiful boy on her own, ultra-sporting and engaged to Rachel Bilson, is two heads taller than me and looks as flirting that Darth Vader, but I want to have and I will have it. Me too, I see my life as a challenge, slogan of the new fragrance from Lacoste Challenge which he is the muse. I start the machine with a big smile full of teeth and the look in his eyes. Without taking his eyes, I asked if the fragrance is part of the game of seduction. It responds very jargon: “Absolutely. When you meet someone for the first time, the scent that emerges is a very important sensory stimulator. ”

Hayden Christensen, her kind of girl

I beat the lashes very quickly, I get up at half, and handed him my neck to feel. “And I sense how? It’s Chanel! “I entrust hysterical. The manager and three press officers Lacoste attending the interview giggled. A split second aback, Hayden, a great professional, has resumed very quickly. He realized he was dealing with a lunatic. Prudent, he plays the game: “Mmmm, not bad! says he, connoisseur. While Chanel, hehe, it will be used against you. ” I can link asking her kind of girls, if there is a niche for me. As a casual spokesman for the Elysee, he skews: “This is not just for girls … but I think people who make me tilter are those who have a strong sense of themselves, structured minds … ” I cut: “Einstein, but blonde?” Re-laughter of my audience in the background. He continued, without worrying about my rude interruption: “Let’s say that I appreciate those who have a great sense of humor. For life is nothing without a good dose of laughter and humor, I think. ” Phew, as he sweats after a hockey game or tennis – his two favorite sports – but he has the impression of it being done well, is the principal. Come on, I leave the first inning.

Hayden Christensen, a happy man

The second round begins.

I asked him at any chance, if he is happy. “Yes, he replied, proud of him, I like to laugh, and laughter is a way of being happy. When I look at my face in celebrity magazines, I laugh at myself. I also laugh when I read what journalists write. Without a minimum of second degree, I have a very empty life. ”

Takers

Posted by admin with 2 Comments

There’s an interview over at Buzzine with Paul Walker, one of Hayden’s co-stars in the upcoming film Takers, and he actually mentions a bit about him and the film.

EI: We need talk about your role in Takers. Who do you play?

PW: I play John, who is the right-hand man in the crew. He’s the guy who wants to commit crimes. If you’re going to be shady, you want him involved because he’s going to do things the way you want them to be handled, which is the right way, and if things go wrong, he’s a man of action and he makes things right. He will bail you out of a situation and, worst case scenario, if you’re caught, he’ll take bamboo slithers up the fingernails; he’ll take a gun to the forehead and won’t crack. That’s the guy he is. He’s a marksman. His skill set is crazy. He’s a great driver. A great wheelman.

EI: Does Hayden Christensen play your younger brother?

PW: Is that what they are saying?

EI: That’s what’s implied.

PW: No, it’s never said, but it could be interpreted that way, no problem. That works — I like him enough. [Laughs] But yeah, fun character. I got to do some fun stuff. The crew is a likeable crew; it’s a mix of personalities. Guys come from different sides of the tracks. It’s a code, and they just all want to understand one another. They all get high on the same thing, which is doing illegal stuff — walking that line, pushing the limits and seeing what they can get away with.

Hayden Feels The Force on Alex’s List

Posted by admin with Comments Off

There are worse jobs than interviewing movie stars and Alex Zane knows this.

As the infectiously enthusiastic frontman of Alex Zane’s Guest List, the DJ and presenter brings his love of all things silver screen to one-on-one’s with the biggest and best celebs, every Thursday at 7.30pm on Sky Movies Premiere & HD.

In a film spin on Desert Island Discs (Desert Island DVDs?), guests choose four of their all time favourite movies playing on Sky Movies and Sky Box Office, and sit down for some clued-up chat with the self-confessed Burt Reynolds addict.

Hayden Christensen may always be known as Anakin Skywalker, the future Darth Vader in the Star Wars prequels.

But, holding court on Alex Zane’s Guest List this week, he reveals why Jumper proved a more hazardous shoot, leaving him with the nickname “One big eye”, and both he and Alex relive the time they (separately) attempted to “do a Cool Hand Luke” and munch through 50 hard boiled eggs.

Hayden decided 15 was un oeuf, while Alex coughed up a “eggy furball”.

Amidst the movie banter, Christensen proving his good taste by choosing four class films currently playing on Sky Movies, the actor reveals a fondness for pot-bellied pigs. Apparently they smile when you tickle their tummies…

To catch this quality chat just click on the videos below or make a date with Sky Movies Premiere & HD on Thursday 4th June at 7.30pm. The interview will also be available on Sky Anytime from Sunday 6.
