Ice Ice Baby..... No you're not reading about
Vanilla Ice. Let me introduce you to a guy that is cooler than than the water
in your fridge and who's about to blow to astronomical heights. His is a name
you have probably heard numerous times in the past couple of years and I'm
undoubtedly sure you'll be hearing about him a lot more.
Ice Kayas.....
From London's East End, to the centre of London's
party scene, this aspiring hardworking young entrepreneur has his manicured
nails in a lot of pies right now. Having the support of his family, he knew he
could aspire to be better than just your average Joe. Not content with just
DJ'ing, promoting, acting or being an expert social networker, he's now taken
on more responsibilities by turning his skills to directing and working for
British actors, Ashley Walters' company ad2 Productions and Noel Clarke's
Unstoppable LTD.
The experience of working with some of the best up
and coming artists the British urban film industry has seen, such as BAFTA winner, Noel Clarke on features like 'Fast Girls', 'The Knot',
'Storage 24' and more famously, 'Demons Never Die' (starring Tulisa, Robert
Sheehan, Emma Rigby) and 'Adulthood', has enabled Ice to secure his place
guesting at the latest premieres.
But the stark transition from Hackney's ghetto to
the glamour of the red carpet hasn't changed him one bit and he certainly
doesn't get star struck. In fact, though he rubs shoulders with the Eastenders
cast, Mutya Buena and Tulisa, he still resides in east and says unashamedly,
"I couldn't really see myself living anywhere else."
Remaining grounded and defiantly humble, he knows
too well he couldn't live without the creature comforts of, "Family,
endless cups of tea, his BlackBerry and food." Admittedly however, he
confides he can live without.... wait for it... Eastenders, his laptop
(really???) his car, FaceBook and Nando's!
While his #KayasTweets have trended worldwide on
Twitter one can see that still waters definitely run deep with this sensitive
chap. You could say his Tweets are philosophical, but he says they come purely
from his life's experiences and as always the entertainer, he ensures his
followers don't get bored as he delivers humorous anecdotes of daily events,
trials and tribulations.
Smartly dressed and with a shy but laid back
demeanour, Ice is the epitome of cool and with Noel Clarke and Ashley Walters
by his side, he is fast becoming a force to be reckoned with. Knowing too well
this industry is fickle and loyalty is sparse, he's made good friends with the
major players in this game and can be seen to do no wrong.
Though, he still hasn't found his leading lady,
he's not in a rush. Often photographed with stunning women on his arm, Ice is
not lonely, nor is he interested in clocking up the notches on his bed posts; just a true gentleman with high aspirations and ambitions to make his family proud.
So, for now, he's happy babysitting his beautiful niece and concentrating on
his million and one projects that he puts his heart and soul into. Hard hitting
topics like the realities of Domestic Violence and the shattered lives it
leaves behind will be addressed in one of his more serious documentaries, which
will no doubt raise awareness and hope for our somewhat lost generation.
This is a dude that truly makes dreams happen and
he started with creating his own, even though he says he, "always goes
with the flow." Plans for him to star in his own thriller with his wonder
cast comprising of "Jason Statham, Bruce Willis or The rock" may not
be a dream forever. Ice has a funny old habit of making them come true!
I wish him the best of luck with his future
endeavours!!
