Jean-Claude Van Damme Quote
-
I took his (Alex Van Damme) name, in fact from his father because his father sent me for the first time in Hong Kong to be a picture model. I`m not enough tall to be a catwalk model, plus too big for that, and we became very good friends and I took his name as an honor. Because my name, by the way, is too complicated, it`s Van Veren Berg, so in America it sounds like Van Varen Berg" (said with American accent). So Van Damme it`s punchy, short, and clear." - [on adopting the name `Van Damme`]
