V-Factory crooner explains why he is “Love Struck” with Los Angeles.

I’m not originally from Los Angeles, but in the past two years that I have lived here I have found so many fun things to do, pretty much in my own backyard.

Hollywood and Highland [6801 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood] is a cool place to chill. And walking up and down Hollywood Boulevard in front of the shopping center, looking at all the different stars on the sidewalk is fun.

There is so much history there and also at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre [6925 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood]. I love looking at all the hand and footprints stamped in the concrete. Did you know John Wayne had tiny feet?!

It’s crazy seeing the people dressed up as movie characters, posing for photo ops, too. Some of them look just like the real characters.

Driving up Mulholland Drive and looking at the Hollywood Sign [6342 Mulholland Highway, Hollywood] and over the city is beautiful.

I’m in a music group called V-Factory, and my favorite venue to perform at is the House of Blues Sunset Strip [6255 W. Sunset Blvd., West Hollywood] because of the sound quality. And there’s always such good energy in the crowd!
