Gabe Saporta!!

Hey guys, meet again.
Hmm, let see.. Now I just want to share one of my new, my another favorite band *I even don’t know if it is a band or what*.
Any of you know about Cobra Starship? I just listened to them about a week ago, when I changed my tv channel to MTV Asia which played their newest video clip, “Good Girls Go Bad” featuring Leighton Meester.
Yesss, you all know her aight? She roles her act as Blair in one of my favorite tv show, Gossip Girl. You know, she’s kinda attractive, sexy, and cute in that video clip. She sings some part of the song with the frontman, Gabe Saporta.
My some tweets lately are about him. I put my eyes so much onto him just because I like his style. You know, he has a very good taste of fashion. I love his colorful stuff which hang on his body. Anyway, he looks cute and hot.
Cobra Starship began in 2006 as the Alternative-Rock side-project of vocalist + bassist Gabe Saporta. He was born in Montevideo, Uruguay and at age 4 he immigrated to Queens, New York, with dreams of becoming a rockstar. In the late '90s, Saporta formed the Emo-Punk quartet Midtown, scoring a mid-size hit with the album "Forget What You Know" in 2004.
In 2006 Saporta joined forces with Maja Ivarsson from The Sounds, William Beckett lead singer of The Academy Is… and rapper Travis McCoy to cut Cobra Starship's debut single, the Hot Modern Rock top 40 hit "Snakes On A Plane (Bring It)" which was featured on the soundtrack to the Samuel L. Jackson comedy, "Snakes On A Plane".
The band's first album, "When The City Sleeps, We Rule The Streets", followed in October that same year. Saporta assembled a full band, this time around, featuring Ryland Blackinton on lead guitar, Elisa Schwartz on keytar, Alex Suarez on bass and Nate Novarro on drums. Issued by Decaydance/Fueled By Ramen, the group's debut record peaked at #7 on the U.S. Top Independent Albums chart also crossing over to The Billboard 200.
October 2007 saw the release of the critically acclaimed sophomore effort "iViva La Cobra!" which debuted at #80 on The Billboard Top 200 Albums chart and spawned the alt-Rock radio minor hit single "Guilty Pleasure". The full-length disc marked the recording debut of Victoria Asher who replaced Schwartz on keytar.
Cobra Starship's third album, "Hot Mess", arrives in August 2009; the 11-song set includes the first single "Good Girls Go Bad" which features actress-turned-singer Leighton Meester.
