Ever wondered what it would be like to be an actor and a VJ and a model and a TV host? Then maybe you should ask Singapore-based Uttsada Panichkul (AKA Utt). Utt's career kicked off when he won the slot to host MTV's Bangkok Jam in 1998, and he's now a permanent fixture on MTV Asia in Singapore. When he's not being a model or a VJ, you might see him acting in TV shows like CHASE and After Hours, or hosting programs like Incredible Tales, Live the Dream and more recently, Miss Earth 2007 in the Philippines.
