Hey, guys, have you seen this?

Ville Valo Gains Lots of Weight For Movie Role


HIM singer Ville Valo will make his big screen debut this November and no ... he won't be playing a heartthrob or a druggie.



According to Kerrang!, on November 21, "Madagascar 2 Africa"will hit theaters and, believe it or not, Valo is the voice of Moto Moto the hippo in the Finnish dub version of the film. Moto Moto has his own song in the film about his passion for 'big' female hippos (and one female hippo in particular ... Gloria from the original "Madagascar") and you can listen to the song here. It hasn't been confirmed whether or not Valo will be singing the very same song in the Finnish version, although one would assume so. (Does that count as new HIM-related music?)

HIM released their first official live CD/DVD, Digital Versatile Doom, earlier this year and their sixth full-length, Venus Doom, back in 2007.

Would you fly to Finland just to see "Madagascar 2 Africa" with Ville Valo? Do you hope Valo becomes a successful voice-over actor and takes on more roles?
