Beautiful photos !
But I reassure those who do not speak French : NOTHING NEW ! Always the same comments ! Saddening for a magazine which says itself " of current events "!!
I wanted to buy it, but when I read, it really was not worth it !!! tongue

Nice pics. Like tinamarie, the jacket one is especially nice.

So hopefully SB is somewhere in private, building his cabin or catching a good wave. May he have a well deserved rest.

Thanks for that excellent translation McBabsi! We always learn a little bit more about Simon with each interview.

Are those Paris Match photos older ones that are reused? Because they cannot be current (unless they were heavily airbrushed), contrast the photo used in Joy magazine which is much more current.
Also thanks so much for the translation McBabsi!

Unfortunately, very often, French magazines use old photos ! You're right !

If someone wants to read the text of "Paris Match" (and copy and translate with google ! because I don't speak English well enough to do it ) you can follow this link :

Interview for Cosmopolitan Argentina May 2013: http://www.cosmo.com.ar/2013/05/simon-baker/

The google translation is pretty poor and I don't know how accurate it is. There is a preamble, but this is just the Q&A:

Q What do you like to do when not working?
Most of my free time I'm with my family. On weekends, my two sons do sports and play tennis. I love building things at home, and they help me. Every so often they'll question me and say, "Dad, what are you doing?". It challenges me and I like to do it (laughs).

Q What is your favorite place in the world?
My farm in Australia. It is north of Sydney, and I go as often as I can. At least twice a year.

Q What is the best advice that you can give a woman to win over a man?
When you hardly know someone, you instinctively want to get along with your ​​boyfriend. I think the big challenge is to find the fine line between getting along and loving, but not take on the role of mother (laughs).

Q What aspects of a gentleman do you have?
I have many gestures of courtesy and good manners. These apply both with my wife and with people in general. I think it is all a matter of being nice, polite and pleasant, always. Being a gentleman is something inspirational and aspirational. It is directly linked to having lovely behavior. It has to do with how to be a man and obviously your relationship with women.

Q With your wife you have been together for many years. What is your ideal evening?
Organize and enjoy a nice dinner with friends, who are like our family. Take a good wine and a little tequila ... and end up dancing together under the stars.

Q Do you carry out a beauty routine?
I only wash my face and I use moisturiser every day. When I'm not filming (which is a rarity), I try to be active and pay a little more attention to my skin. I like to look well.

Q What is your next big challenge?
To continue working as an actor after The Mentalist. There are still a couple more seasons, but it won't last forever ... (laughs).

Such a sweet interview. With all his fame he is still such a modest guy who likes the simple things in life. Happy to build things (cabin) and be with his family in his favourite place in the world...his farm in Australia. I have a picture in my mind of him spending time with his friends and dancing with Rebecca under the stars .....he's such a romantic!! Here's hoping he is right and there are two more seasons to look forward to! biggrin biggrin

SXSW Interview (10March2013) with Director/Writer Dan Mazer and Actor Simon Baker for ‘I Give It a Year’

Audio interview (24:28) with interview breakdown - same roundtable occasion as the one from DailyActor posted here in March, so probably very similar.

I think this tweet from a journalist may be inaccurate, but I guess there's a chance it's true as his surfing holiday was due to finish early May:

11May @karimozena "I spy Simon Baker. Nice and scruffy here at @SMMOA #Incognito"

I did post an article some time ago where Simon was listed as due to attend the Santa Monica Museum of Art Gala dinner, but it seemed very unlikely that he would be there (I think dinner was on 9May & Incognito sale on 11May). Simon is not listed as an attendee at the dinner in this article about the event http://societynewsla.com/precognito-for-incognito-2013-at-smmoa/ but Rebecca is. I suppose he may have missed the dinner but got back in time for the sale.
