recognize today, was (and is) in a Los Angeles based rock band. Really.
Freshly formed Left of Zed circ pre-2000.
Still rocking but flying a new flag- say hello to Zed’s evolution into today’s “Viva La Union”. And yes, John remains the front man of the talented quartet.
Amazingly, in between the jam sessions of the past 10 plus years, Mr. Cho has surreptitiously built an acting career that spawn from “MILF” to White Castle to a turbulent ride beyond the stars aboard the USS Enterprise.
Ok, so crooning into a mic is one thing, but did you know he’s just at home on stage where there are no comforting cries “Cut!”. It’s been said in the darkness of theatre you can feel the mordant eyes of a live audience slowly sear your soul.
But this hardly gave the zealous Cho a fright, in fact he segued from the stage to the sitcom seamlessly. The aptly named comedy, Off Centre was alive for almost 2 seasons on the WB- before parental groups lambasted it for being too lewd. Yet how can anyone not appreciate the sexual slapstick of Vietnamese restaurant owner Chau Presley portrayed by the crazy young partygoer that just birthed one of Hollywood’s best known acronyms via American Pie.
Adding to the list of broken stereotypes in his wake, John was named one of the 16 sexiest men alive by People Magazine in 2006. Nice work if you can get it. I wonder if he and the other guys on the list make fun of people like me? Probably. But I solemnly understand.
Once asked on the topic in an interview John replied, "I'm willing to make a fool of myself on the dance floor."
