Alessandro

Thirty-first Birthday wishes go out to accomplished singer, stage actor, and current representative of gays in the Sci-Fi Universe, Alessandro Juliani.

Not long ago, someone asked me why I have the hots for Alessandro. Dumbfounded, I couldn't answer. Perhaps its that soulful look coming from his eyes? Perhaps the slight darkness to his skin? ('Sandro is part Italian, part Chinese) Maybe the way he conveys mystery yet a warm personae? Dunno. Maybe it's cause he kissed a guy in a television series? (Of course we all know what happened to Felix Gaeta in the end, so let's forget I even mentioned that.)

Born in my second favorite spot in Canada, Montréal, Alessandro has starred in a few other sci-fi projects like Stargate SG-1, done stage acting, and multiple voice overs for cartoon features. Wonder Man might find this bit o' trivia interesting, but I discovered 'Sandro provided the voice for Gambit in the X-Men: Evolution cartoon a few years back. Woulda never guessed it!

I hope now that Galactica has concluded it's run, we haven't seen the last of Alessandro. Hope some venue will open up and he'll slide back on to our television screens without missing a beat.
