Although born in Russia, Andrei Gheorghe is a Romanian 100%. Schoolteacher by formation, mind-boggler by design, after trying the most diverse jobs he errupted in the Romanian mass-media in the early 90s, as host of a local TV station, soon to be noticed and transferred to an important Bucharest TV and radio station (ProTV/ProFM), where he's actually a collaborator. His trademark radio shows, 'Midnight Killer' and '13-14 with Andrei', established him as a provocative, iconoclast figure, ready to chastise stupidity and lack of culture and to applaud originality. The next, natural, step was choosing him as host of the Romanian version of "The Weakest Link", Lantul slabiciunilor (2001). He's a merciless host who's tormenting the competitors, but always ends the show with a wink. In 2001 he was noticed by Costa Gavras while filming _Amen (2002)_ in Romania and was cast as a French officer. Since the summer of 2003, Andrei Gheorghe has worked for another Romanian TV station, named "Antena 1". There, he presents his own talkshow, named by his name: "Gheorghe". Also, since 2003, he has worked for another Romanian Radio Station: "Radio 21". Gheorghe is very popular in Romania for his sincerity and for his courage to say exactly what he thinks.
