Vince Colosiwho ?

Am I the only cunt in australia who knows who Vince Colosimo is but does not know why ? The guy is portrayed as some kind of legendary 'aussie' wog actor, but fucked if I could name anything the guy actually starred in for more than a nanosecond.

As I squat in front of the box and watch him hosting "Customs" I try to think what it could be that makes this guy so fucking well known. In my recent (poor) memory he played Alphonse Gangitano in last years blockbuster "Underbelly" but he was shot dead in the first episode which should have been enough time for him to use up the entire sets worth of olive oil and pita bread. Before that, I recall him being shot in the leg by Eric Bana, playing Mark "Chopper" Read, in the epic comedic scene during the Chopper movie which made the words "Why would I shoot him then run him to hospital, it defeats the purpose of having shot him" timelessly famous.

Lets take a quick look at his wiki, which is the guage by which you have 'made it' with notable exceptions Stephen Bradbury, oh and having your own facebook fan page DOES NOT count.

Ok, quick skim read... A Country Practice (yawn), The Wog Boy, yeah ok kudos to that flik, but come on, every greasy haired 'aussie' got a gig in that movie and he was only a bit part to the guy from "Acropolis Now" with the hair, Nick Giannopo-something. "The Nugget", don't actually remember him in that but ok. Hang on, I might have found something

"...From 2005 until late 2007, Colosmio had guest roles in Blue Heelers (2005), MDA (2005), Two Twisted (2006) and City Homicide (2007). His American credits include popular shows such as The Practice (2004) and Without a Trace (2003)..."

HE'S A FOOKING RENT A WOG, I get it, every time a television show needs a 'token' wog, they call vince, or nick giannopo-whatever (depending on the hair season). he's like what ernie dingo is to aboriginals, Magda Szubanski to michelin, Jay Laga'aia to sheep, and Stephen Currie to stupid.

On that note i'm going to go watch Underbelly2 hopefully there's some exposed 70's boobs and arse slapping like Underbelly1, I recommend you do so too.
