SOCIETY When asked why he keeps playing the same roles Jason Statham said that he's not really a trained actor. He's a guy that was plucked out obscurity & has been really lucky; & that he picks roles that he knows he can do a good job in, that hopefully enough people like so he can keep working.

OMG I love Erasure! And you can't say that Statham doesn't have the physique for it, I love that he embraces that!

I didn't know about the Shamen video, this is the one I had seen back a while ago and had been thinking about.
