(6/29/99, 4 p.m. PDT) - Cindy Crawford was so happy to be mentioned in Blessid Union Of Souls' hit single "Hey Leonardo (She Likes Me For Me)," that she wrote lead singer Eliot Sloan a note.
The note, which was handwritten on Crawford's personalized stationary, reads, "I'm a big fan of the band. I was addicted to 'I Believe' and the entire Home album. Thanks for calling me 'phat'!"
Sloan explains the story behind the song. "We're just a bunch of bozos in this band and this song is for the average guy, who's with this gorgeous girl," he says. "I kind of had that in mind, it's not Don Juan, not Fabio, not Leonardo DiCaprio. It's just about a guy who's like, 'Hey man, if anybody else can get a girl, so can I.'"
Blessid Union Of Souls is currently touring in support of its new album, Walking Off The Buzz.
