Google Security Chief by Day, TV
Magician 'Eran Raven' by Night
(Valleywag)
Maybe it should come as no surprise that

viewers. But Eran Feigenbaum -- better
known as "Eran Raven" -- has turned the
cheese knob up awfully high, considering

Thomas Ong: "Quan Yifong likes younger
men" (Xin.sg via Yahoo! Singapore News)
For his latest role as a magician in the
upcoming Channel U drama series The

TV station executives Quan Yifong, a
high-flyer and Mei Xin, a new colleague,
to produce a magic TV show together. The
13-parter marks the first time the
40-year-old is collaborating with both
girls, and the good-looking actor was
rather candid about any sort of sparks
off-set.
