"The ultimate destiny for any man and woman is a relationship that blossoms into marriage," says 48-year-old Glenn. "I'm very old-fashioned that way and I pray that one day it happens for me." This 5'10" Canadian singer/songwriter/real estate agent, is just happy to be alive and healthy right now. In 1981, while attending premed school, Glenn was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. Refusing surgery, Glenn was determined to heal himself. After 15 years of research and self testing, he cured himself and created the video, The Brand New You! to help others; vowing if he ever found a way that worked for him, he would share it with the world. "I felt If one person could benefit from what I've done," says Glenn, "then it would all be worthwhile." After his successful struggle with his disease, Glenn began competing in track and field. To date, he has won 60 medals, most of them gold,  and has been ranked #6 in the world for his age group. He also holds The National Natural Mr. Fitness Championship Title for 1998.

Sign: Aries

Height: 5'10"

History: When Glenn's 6-year-old brother was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor, he decided he wanted to become a brain surgeon. Two years later he was forced to leave his education and deal with his little brother's death and his own life-threatening illness - Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis. It was 1981 and doctor's didn't give him much hope either. "I didn't think I'd live past the age of 25. It's so lonely when you have a disease people don't understand. I felt completely powerless. Dating was impossible and my social life was nonexistent."

Glenn refused to give in to the disease and even refused surgery. He was determined to heal himself. "I studied all the tapes, videos, books and theories from around the world - whatever I could get my hands on. With the help of some doctor friends, I used myself as a guinea pig. Finally I understood that I needed to get back to basics. Improper digestion was using all of my body's energy. I thought if I could reduce the energy I was wasting on improperly digested meals, then my body's own natural healing power would be released."

Glenn devised a healthy eating plan, using natural foods to clear the symptoms of his disease. "I believe it is not so much what people eat, but how they eat. I explain everything with some easy-to-do, at home, body sculpting. The only reason that I did the video was because the doctors in the hospitals up here told me to get it done on video so that the younger kids who are getting these intestinal problems would have someone to look up to and some inspiration to realize that they could live past 20 because I certainly didn't think I'd live past 30. There's a right way to eat. It's nothing special. It's getting back to what our ancestors did. The world has gone backwards in what they're doing."

Occupation: Singer/Songwriter/Real Estate Agent in a family owned company/World ranked Track Athlete. "I was writing songs since I was 5. I had 2 record deals and 3 publishing deals. I do R & B ballads. I had the number 1 song here in Canada and top 40 in the states with a song called Boomerang."

... on HIMSELF

Glenn is a man who ... "tries to touch everyone each day in a special way."

Best Qualities: "I'm easy to get to know because I make a person feel relaxed and comfortable no matter what happens."

Strengths: "Although I'm very goal oriented, I'm always looking for the funny things in life that will keep me and those around me laughing."

Weakness: "I pack too much into one day and sometimes I don't get enough sleep - especially if I'm working on a new song - I can lose track of time."

Others may not see: "Others can see everything about me because I am, maybe, too open with people but the fact is ... I'm shy."

Interests: "All sports as long as I'm participating. All music. All movies. All sunsets. All sunrises."

Turn Ons: "A smile; a gentle touch; being and staying healthy. I used to think it was hearing my songs on the radio, and at first it was, getting gold and platinum records, it's like `wow you're getting money for your stuff,' that's nice, but you grow out of that and that's materialistic. What really touches me now is that I get letters, a lot of them, and emails from people who've seen the video and had no where to turn. The testimonies that I get and I've got, are unreal. They make you start bawling almost, that's what turns me on."

Turn Offs: "A frown; negativity; lack of kindness. So many people are robotic, all they see is what's in front of them now. It's a turn off when people don't see the little things in life and it's too bad people have to have a life-threatening thing happen in order for them to see things people don't see." 

Special Talents: "Making people feel special. There's something special in every person. My best talent would be my love songs. I write romantically."

Charities: "I have few that are close to my heart. Sick Kid's Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and all Colitis Foundations. I'd like to make as many wishes come true as I can."

What touches my soul: "Love and compassion in a world that can be cold sometimes."

... on WOMEN

Attention Getters: "Eye contact and, of course, the flash of her smile."

Ideal woman: "Happy, healthy, athletic, down-to-earth, easygoing nature."

Ideal date: "Harley up the coast to a little villa restaurant and watch the sunset sizzle."

What makes a woman unforgettable: "Her kiss; the taste of her lips and her smile."

I wish women understood ... "Quote: That there is so much good in the worst of us and so much bad in the best of us that it's never clever for any of us to criticize the rest of us."

... on RELATIONSHIPS

Views on relationships/marriage: "As much as I don't let it be known to the people who I know, I think it's the rounding off of the fulfillment of life. I feel so lost when I'm single. But I don't want to go into it
half-assed. And a lot of people, I think, do. I love to share the many crazy and happy experiences I have each day with someone so that when I look into her eyes, I relive the happiness. I'm prepared, financially and everything, but to find that person who's going to be forever... I think it can all happen with one person. I think it is possible. Damn it, my songs all say so. So I have to live what I preach. The ultimate destiny for any man and woman is a relationship that blossoms into marriage. I'm very old-fashioned that way and I pray that one day it happens for me. Kids, these days, have to have real morals and a healthy family and that can only happen with two parents who have an everlasting love bond together. So that their kids can pass on the same life to their kids and so on ... That's how you change the world into a wonderful place to live."

Top Relationship Keys: "Humor, communication, respect and almost a spiritual "oneness" when with each other."

A woman in a relationship with me can expect ... "the unexpected. A life that is always changing and evolving into something new and refreshing with each day."

What I expect: "That the woman just be herself and hold on tight." 

Greatest Relationship Lesson: "To never take it for granted. Always cherish every moment cause you never know if those eyes you fall so deeply into will be there tomorrow."

... on HIS FAVORITE THINGS

Movie: "I love almost every movie from classics like 'Some Like It Hot' to all the old black and white gems - although I've always loved the 'Wizard of Oz.' I've still got a soft spot for all romantic musicals, especially those movies that try to make me cry - ya,that's right, dramatic chick flicks!"

TV Show: "The Wild, Wild West back in the seventies to Sienfeld."
 

Book: "Max Brand Westerns - stories of the Old West."

Food: "Rice Krispie Squares, Belgium dark chocolate, Ice cream."

Season: "Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, in that order."

... on LIFE

Making My Mark: "To help more people learn about the power of good digestion with my health video and to touch their emotions with my love songs." 

Responsibility to Society: "To give what talents and lessons you have acquired over the years in order to somehow, even in a small way, make the world a little bit brighter. When I started feeling better, a lot of people said, `look it's working for you, don't put yourself through the time and money to do the video. It cost me a lot of money to do this video and it's still costing me a lot of money. The money I make from the video, when and if I do, goes to preparing more videos which I give free to the hospitals. For me, that's my responsibility to society. If you found something that works that's good for you and it could help other people, it's your responsibility to take the time and money to get it out there, whether it's a book or video. The same thing with music, if you've got something that touches people, then it's your responsibility. These are things that I think are important."

Valuable Life Lesson: "Be kind, friendly and cheerful and keep in mind that nature puts her curse on all wrongdoing."

What I try to get out of life every day: "Obviously as much as possible. By trying to make each day a step to becoming a better, stronger and faster super hero so I can beat the hell out of that Spiderman guy."

I must ... "get married, get more people in touch with health and get another hit song under my belt."

Best advice I've received: "Kindness is a language the blind can see and the deaf can hear." 

Best advice I've given a woman: "Follow your heart but trust your gut."

... final THOUGHTS

Wheels: "2000 Ferrari-Red Corvette Convertible and a Custom Harley Soft Tail."

Pets: "All animals - no matter how tame or wild. We back into a forest so there's lots of wild life behind my house to play with. There are deer, rabbits, foxes and bunnies ... and snakes"

Always in my refrigerator: "Vegetables, fruit juice, organic meat."

Hottest possession: "Oven. My wild imagination, baby!!"

Secret fantasy: "To find the girl of my dreams to complete my life."

Me, a deserted island and ... "a seadoo (jetski) so I can rescue my woman and get back to civilization."

A character in a novel or film who best describes me: "Probably a mix of Robin Williams, Tom Green, Fabio and Rod Stewart. But I love to play the dangerous villain - the bad guy - which, of course, is my total opposite."

I'd change places for 24 hours with ... "Elvis - oh, oh, what did I do? He's dead, isn't he?"

What makes me a great catch: "is that after you reel me into your boat - and I stop wiggling - I will treat you so sweetly and there will be nothing you will ever want."  

Me in a word: "Crazy!!"

Last Words: "Prison has really changed me - hey I'm just kidding - no really!"
