The Big Plunge


Unless you are Flemish, chances are good that you don't know who Ian Thomas is.  He has been called the Justin Bieber of Belgium,  likely because he made his first impression covering Bieber's hit, Baby.  He's sixteen now, and he's managed to stay in the public eye in his home country, with hit songs like Rain.


Last autumn he placed second on the TV competion show De Grote Sprong (The Big Plunge), the  Belgian version of Splash.  

 
I always say, if you want to get the public's attention, appear weekly on national television wearing a Speedo.  Never fails.
