I should shut up about him but I don't want to

re: Matthew Gray Gubler from this article/interview

He has even reached that level of fame where he's the subject of a growing Internet rumor: that he's the basis for the Killers' song "Mr. Brightside," in which frontman Brandon Flowers sings about watching another man seduce his girl. Gubler, who's working with a mutual friend on a small project for the band, says that claim "blew my mind," but it's not true.

"I don't think so, anyway. I haven't really asked Brandon about it," he says. "I think I'd rather not ask him about it."

"But," he adds in closing, "I am Roxanne from the Sting song."

OKAY, YOU WIN! I finally Wikipedia'd this person I don't know, so at least now I have a vague idea of who they are. ;)

Feel free to keep the MGG stuff coming. I adore him. The woman who plays Garcia has a blog on the CBS site, and sometimes she gives little tidbits of information about him and the rest of the cast. Like Matthew never wears matching socks and he likes to wear t-shirts that he's decorated himself.

Every time you post about him I have to look twice because I keep reading his name as Matthew Gay Rubber on the first try. I don't know how. D:
