Mindfreak Criss Angel was born Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos on December 19, 1967.  All though he is known as being a magician and an illusionist, Criss also loves music and playing the drums.  After performing World of Illusion at Madison Square Garden in 1998, Criss has taken off in his career.  He created his own T.V. show Criss Angel:Mindfreak and has performed some seriously heart stopping stunts.  Walking on water, making a Lamborghini disappear and levitating are just some of the tricks that Angel pulls out of his hat. 

Even though Criss is not a Hollywood actor, he keeps up with the Hollywood scene as Young Hollywood had the chance to talk with him before 2007 MTV VMA’s and hear what he had to say about Britney’s comeback performance. We know he won't be disappearing anytime soon!
