I have always had a little crush on him since I was younger, and I love all of the work he is doing now, but he is unlike any other celebrity.
He is...
Kirk Cameron.
I loved him in Growing Pains. That was my favorite show growing up. It was so funny and Mike Seaver was so cute!
He became a born again Christian when he was 17 years old. He is one of the very few celebrities that never fell into drugs and alcohol. That right there is enough to respect him.
He played Buck Williams in the Left Behind movies and I loved him in those too but I absolutely adore him in Fireproof. He plays Caleb Holt, the captain of that Albany Fire Department in Georgia.
Now, I thought it was interesting that he and the actress who plays his wife never hugged or touched throughout the movie and then at the end, they hug and share a very passionate kiss...to me, it seemed like he would be the kind of person to feel very uncomfortable with the idea of kissing someone other than his wife. So I did a little research.
He refused to kiss anyone other than his wife. In Fireproof, the kissing scene is shot from a distance and the sun in shining into the camera so they are in silhouette. That is his wife that he is kissing, not the character who plays his wife in the film. His wife is wearing the same dress as the other actress and they just switched.
Now, I don't know about you, but this is saying a lot about him and his character. That is how it should be, but nothing is ever how it should be in this world anymore.
Completely random entry, I know, but I just wanted to share that. My List of Five entries will start later today or tomorrow.
