Can you tell us something more about you? And your hobby’s? Interests etc.

I am German, 48 years old and live in the southwest of Germany. Besides loving Leonardo, I’m a Star Trek fan for many years (exactly since I was 10 years old). I love all Sci Fi – books, TV shows and movies. I used to be a big reader, and I still love to read. But when the internet came into my life (more than 13 years ago), I became so fascinated by that medium that it now takes much more of my free time than reading or anything for that matter ;-) . I love Teddys and candles, black Tea and beer very much. I enjoy to be single and to love Leonardo, whom I call “my one and only”

How long have you been part of SLD.com?

Hmm…I guess since one and a half year…or maybe almost two? And I love to be part of it!

What Leo means to you? How long have you been a fan?

Wow…what a question! Where do I start? I love Leonardo since I saw “Titanic” for the first time, on January 30th 1998. But actually, my love to come had some earlier signs, In summer 1997, I saw “Gilbert Grape” on TV, and I was absolutely thrilled by Leo’s performance. I didn’t know anything about him back then, including his actual physical appearance. I thought, he was really mentally challenged. When I learned from the credits that he is an actor, I nearly couldn’t believe it, and I decided to see the first thing with this incredible actor that came along. And along came “Titanic” in January 1998. I watched it only, because I wanted to see the actor who convinced me of actually being mentally handicapped in another role. But I was looking forward to it in a way that never happened to me before. When I first got a look on Leonardo in “Titanic”, I nearly jumped out of my seat! My heart jumped to love him unconditionally and hasn’t stopped since. All I needed to know about him, some internet sites told me already in February 1998. I read a few interviews and had immediate access to this guy. I do understand what he’s talking about most of the time….and what I don’t understand , he’ll reveal to me (through an interview or a picture) one or the other time.
Leonardo is the love of my life, and that’s perfect for me. My life wouldn’t be complete without him. I am so thankful for living in the same time and on the same planet as he does! He is much more than just my favorite actor. He’s a very important part of my life, and I he’s with me everywhere I go in a special way.

If you could wish for one thing, what would it be?

To make a wish: LOVE should be the most important thing in the world!

What type of music do you like and do you have a favorite band or singer?

My favorite musicians/singers are: X-Perience (German), AbbA, The Beatles, Leonard Cohen, Angelo Branduardi, Reinhard Mey, Juliane Werding and others.

What is your favorite Leo movie and character?

My fav Leo movie right now is “Blood Diamond” – and “Danny Archer” is also my fav character – along with “Billy Costigan”. I can’t really decide between these two, because I love them both so much

Your favorite Leo item that you own.

My absolute fav among all the Leo item I own is my watch. with Leo’s picture on it. I wear it every day, and I love it to pieces!

Do you care about the environment?

I do care about the environment, and I think, it’s really important to do so. I avoid plastic bags (don’t use them for quite a long time), I try to save energy, I seperate my waist (as we all do in Germany)…well, I try to do what I can do.

What’s one thing you wish you could tell Leo.

I would love to be able to tell Leonardo that being a “celebrity” is an important thing in the sense that HE, as the person he is, means so much to many people in this world. He is making people think about issues, dream and cry….and overall making them happy (to even the smalles degree), AND THAT IS ONE THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IN THE WORLD!

Last question, Is something you would like to say to all Leo fans.

Just this: KEEP LOVING LEO!!!!
