From a recent Elijah interview. This segment blatantly stolen from the wonderful
undone27's full interview transcript, because she's the coolest. Yeah. Anyway:
Which brings up my next topic: dating. Elijah admits he's been in love "probably more than once," but he doesn't give any names. He's been linked with Franka Potente, 28, his co-star in the yet-to-be-scheduled romantic comedy, Try Seventeen, which also stars Mandy Moore. When I ask if Franka's one of those loves, Elijah gets tight-lipped, bites his nails, and goes into the usual celebrity spiel about keeping his private life private.
He doesn't have a problem talking about romance in general, though. "Anything is suddenly romantic when you're with someone you care about," he says. "Even something as simple as going out and getting take-away and watching a movie. Romance isn't about buying flowers or having a picnic. It's the little gestures-like a massage or an unexpected kiss."
So what sort of girl makes him gaga while eating lo mein out of a carton? "I really enjoy women who have a strong sense of themselves, who aren't afraid to speak their mind," says Elijah. "On a superficial level, I like girls with dark hair-I'm a sucker for that. If a girl has an English, French, Italian, or German accent, I go crazy." (Franka is German and has dark hair. Coincidence?)
I could comment. Or not. Just, y'know, he's obviously straight. And still in love with Franka. Yeah. ::tries to pull off the wide-eyed innocent look::
::fails::
::snickers::
How many accents can Dominic Monaghan pull off? German and English, definitely...Right, shutting up now.

Dom speaking with a German accent. I agree with Elijah. I would like that, too.
