Wstępna faza Grobanizmu
Ja myślę, ze to brzmi trochę tak, że gdyby nie musiał uważać na głos to chętnie paliłby więcej. Też się tego nie spodziewałam, w ogóle myślałam, że on tak kocha Nowy Jork, że jego perfekcyjny dzień miałby miejsce właśnie tam. A tu Malibu. Malibu i cygara. Jeszcze jednak mało znamy naszego Josha

No mnie też to zaskoczyło... tzn. że jeszcze wiele do odkrycia przed nami choć to mi się osobiście nie podoba. No ale wreszcie jakaś wada- jeżeli tak można to nazwać...

Ja też nie palę i nie cierpię dymu z papierosów i nie powiem, informacji o cygarach się nie spodziewałam, ale o głos Josha się nie martwcie, Zbigniew Wodecki odpala jednego od drugiego i śpiewa, więc przy 5 rocznie Joshowe struny są bezpieczne

Wywiad z "The Sun"
'I often find myself roaming the streets with armfuls of love-hungry ladies'
EACH week Betty, The Sun's no-nonsense (and slightly scary) Mistress Of Modern Manners, grills a celeb on standards and ethics.
Today singer JOSH GROBAN talks Charlotte Church, shocking proposals and jealous husbands.
I'VE been forced to keep this interview secret from Mr Brisk - he is unreasonably jealous of my enthusiasm for you. How do you deal with furious middle-aged husbands?
I try to convey to the rightfully furious husbands that I'm here to HELP them. Your time together at my concert is only part of your evening. Wink.
You're described as the housewives' favourite but I gather you are now also corrupting, sorry, converting a much younger audience who see you as cool.
I chalk it up to "nerd" being the new "cool" and I gladly welcome this younger audience to my cult... er... fanbase.
The thought of talking to you has brought me out in a hot flush. Your audiences are packed with women of a certain age - how can we harness all that heat for the benefit of humankind?
Betty, your question has turned this interview into a think tank and I will forward it to the UK Department Of Energy And Climate Change. The hot flushes of the world will save us all.
You've just turned 30 and are currently single. Are you fighting your way through crowds of girls looking for lurve whenever you leave the house? Some celebrities would gather up armfuls of them. Not tempted?
I often find myself with armfuls of love-hungry ladies roaming the streets. I'm just not famous enough for The Sun to notice!
As you can imagine, I'm constantly wooed by ardent admirers (it gets on my nerves to be frank, but I try not to reject them too cruelly). What's the most outrageous proposal you've received?
Someone had "Will you marry me?" tattooed on her back. I was shocked and flattered but noticed it wasn't name specific so didn't feel too bad about saying: "Move aside, you tart!"
Do English girls live up to their reputation for being a little, well, forward?
I enjoy a bit of forward behaviour. I'm relatively shy so it's nice to know where a girl stands or how badly she wants you to put your shirt back on.
What's your chat-up technique?
I sing all the time so serenading a girl always seems a little forced. I'm actually pretty timid about bringing a girl to one of my shows too. I really should learn to use my powers for evil more often.
You've been described as America's answer to Charlotte Church. Does that mean we might see you falling over in nightclubs after one too many beers?
I would hope that's what was meant by that comparison! I can't think of another that would fit.
As respectable pillars of the community, Mr B and I were shocked to discover it's illegal to have sex in your garden in the UK. Have you accidentally broken any laws?
Yes! I just moved to New York and was shocked, after receiving a hefty fine, to discover that it's illegal to walk around with an ice cream cone in my pocket.
I know you've only just turned 30 but have you thought about planning your funeral? I think I'd like to be pushed out to sea on a burning ship while mourners line the shore wailing. Any ideas how you'd like to be sent off?
I think about this hourly and constantly update my will online when I have free moments. The current edition requests being shot out of a cannon into a giant shepherd's pie crust, baked in an oven for a little over an hour and fed to a family of Peruvian alpacas. I then wish for the droppings to be picked up in pine-scented baggies and buried in a cemetery.
Pytania zadawane przez tą panią były trochę dziwne... Josh chyba nie traktował tego wywiadu w ogóle poważnie i słusznie, odpowiedź na pytanie o pogrzeb mnie rozwaliła

Te cygara to mnie zaskoczyły... Moim zdaniem albo się pali, albo nie;) Okazyjny papierosek na imprze albo 5 cygar na rok to nie do końca niepalenie:D

e tam, ja uważam, że jak Josh sobie chce poużywać, to niech sobie pali te 5 cygar. (ja oczywiście tez jestem przeciwniczką palenia, ale kilka razy w roku każdemu można wybaczyć, a Joshowi to już na pewno;) byłoby nudno, gdyby był taki nieskazitelny na całej linii

Pogromczyni Wszelkich Tematów
Mamy kolejne potwierdzenie w postaci artykułu, że tak naprawdę jeszcze słabo znamy Grobana. Teraz dowiadujemy się, że kiedyś Josh... interesował się iluzją i magią! Oto artykuł:
"JOSH GROBAN, 30, may have sold more than 24 million records worldwide but who knew the Californian was also a skilled magician?
As a kid I found myself fascinated by escape artists, especially Harry Houdini. I got obsessed with reading books about him and wanted to emulate him. I asked my parents for a pair of handcuffs but I couldn’t wriggle out of them so escapology clearly wasn’t for me.
Then I found that just down the street from my childhood home in Los Angeles was a store called Hollywood Magic and that was like nirvana to me.
After visiting it I became this 11-year-old boy obsessed with grand illusions. I remember thinking how cool it would be to turn a girl into a tiger, which wasn’t at all realistic and I wound up taking after-school magic classes.
We learned sleight of hand so we could perform card tricks and make coins disappear and since I’m extremely double-jointed, I was very good at it.
My obsession became so feverish that when I was 12 I auditioned to be a junior member of The Magic Castle, which is headquarters to the prestigious Academy of Magical Arts.
It’s this big old house in the Hollywood hills that has been completely tricked out with hidden doorways and secret passages. You have to say a password before they even let you in and you have to take an oath pledging that you’ll never give away any of the secrets.
It’s such a cool place; I’d been there for a friend’s birthday party and thought: “It’d be the greatest thing ever to be a member.”
One day I just decided to go for it but I’d been so busy with schoolwork that I hadn’t had time to practice properly and during the audition I dropped the coin I was meant to make disappear.
In all my years as a performer that’s the only time I’ve truly ended up with egg on my face and I was devastated. It didn’t stop me practising magic but I realised it was something I should do for friends and family rather than as a professional.
I was a shy kid at school and a bit socially awkward so I never got into any cliques but I found the other kids thought it was cool when I did magic. I also found I was good at what they call street magic, which is where you do things like getting someone to choose a number and then you guess it. I can’t tell you how that’s done because I still keep the oath, just in case The Magic Castle change their mind and ask me to re-audition.
I bought videos and books at Hollywood Magic and would practise constantly.
One of the tricks I loved was the “sewing needle through the arm” illusion, which is self-explanatory and can be achieved through the use of fake blood, much to the shock and awe of your audience. It always went down well at the shows I and my younger brother Chris, whom I recruited as my assistant, would put on for the family at Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Many of the tricks I learned as a kid I still do at dinner tables and parties. I love the salt shaker through the table stunt, which is where you cover a salt shaker with a napkin, slam it on a table and it disappears. That gets them going “ooh” and “aah”.
I also got to meet David Blaine, one of my heroes. I was at a party where he appeared to eat an entire water glass in front of my eyes; he bit off pieces of glass and chewed until they were like sand in his mouth and then he swallowed the grains.
I’m not sure if that was a trick or if he actually ate that glass but it was really impressive. I haven’t tried to do it myself.
I’ve also got a signed photo of David Copperfield, who came along to one of the magic classes I took as a youngster. He had us all learn a trick and the one who performed it best got a signed picture. I’m proud to say that was me, even though I can’t for the life of me remember what the trick was.
All these years later I’m still learning new stuff. The one thing I’d love to master is levitating.
There are people who are so masterful they trick your eye into thinking they’re raising someone off the ground and whenever I see it I think: “How do they do that?” I kind of like that. Although I practise magic, I’d never want to get to the point where I know how everything is done because I still want to be wowed.
