Weekly Inspiration - Inspiration Showdown #2 Winner - Jared Leto

Ladies and gentlemen, you voted for him, and here he is, winner of the second Inspiration Showdown, Jared Leto!  Once again, the Showdown was a tight race, and I thought Brazilian model, Alexandre Verga, was going to come in at the last second and steal the win away from Jared, but Jared held on.

I'm sure many of you are familiar with Jared Leto, but for those who haven't had the pleasure, he's an American actor and the frontman for the rock band, 30 Seconds To Mars.  He's stared in tons of movies and is always a pleasure to watch on screen.  But even more than his acting ability, he's a fantastic musician.  30 Seconds To Mars was featured here in the Song of the Week spot with their single, "Closer To The Edge", and I do recommend checking them out.  Jared himself is ever evolving, always sporting a new hairstyle and look.

To learn more about 30 Seconds To Mars, here's the band's official website, which includes links to their Twitter and Facebook: http://thirtysecondstomars.thisisthehive.net/blog/  For those who'd like to follow him, here's the link to Jared Leto's Twitter: http://twitter.com/#!/jaredleto

And now without further ado, I present your winner, Jared Leto!

Weekly Inspiration - Jared Leto

So, in last week's Song of the Week post, I mentioned how in my younger years I had crushed on Jared Leto, and said how I should do a Weekly Inspiration post with him for old time's sake.  Well, guess what?  Here he is.  I thought now was a good time with just having talked about him and his band.

For those not familiar with him, Jared is an actor and the frontman of the band, Thirty Seconds To Mars, which he formed with his brother, Shannon, who plays the drums.  As far as his acting goes, he's been in a ton of movies.  Not even I've seen them all.  But I always think it's cool when a person can cross genres from acting to music or vice versa.  One thing about Jared is it's almost impossible to predict what look and style he'll be sporting from one minute to the next.  Clean shaven or scruffy, blond hair, brown hair, blue hair, long, short, and even that fabu pink mohawk in the "Closer to the Edge" video, he's always reinventing himself. 

To learn more about him, you can check out his website/blog, http://jaredleto.com/, his FACEBOOK, and TWITTER.  I think all his pages also have links for Thirty Seconds To Mars, and I included those in the Song of the Week spot for "Closer to the Edge."  And now, enjoy!
