In some pictures, he seems to have tattoos on his arms; a '2' on his left arm, and 'K.F.C.' on his right. Trademark look: azure-colored hair (can look diffrent at some times) Eye color: Black Height: 6 feet, 2 inches Personality: innocent, trusting, not terribly bright, certainly accident-prone, irresponsible,messy Nickname(s): 2-D is his nickname, which refers to the dents on his head obtained from two vehicular accidents involving Murdoc's car; Stu-Pot (short-form of his given name, Stuart Pot) Hobbies/outside interests: likes playing video games (has a particular fondness for Pong) and watching zombie films Crushes: Many people think that he likes Noodle but this is just a story made up by fans. | Artist Biography 2D (or 2-D, both spellings are used in official releases)'s real name is Stuart, and his nickname before he was in the band was Stu-Pot. His previous family name was 'Tusspot,' but it was officially shortened to just 'Pot.' He was born and raised in Hertfordshire, England but moved to Crawley, West Sussex, because of a lawsuit that was being brought against him by his classical piano teacher Ivana Abramovitch for breaking her hand [source: Gorillaz XFM Takeover]. As revealed in the official band biography number one (see the band section) he used to work in Uncle Norm's organ emporium before he was famous, and it was there that he suffered an injury when Murdoc ram-raided the shop in an attempt to steal equipment to form his new band. This left one dent on his head, and left him in a coma. As part of Murdoc's sentence for the attempted robbery he had to care for Stu-Pot for a certain amount of time, and during this time he injured Stu-Pot again, giving him another dent on the head (hence the name 2-D, short for 'two dents'). The injuries also fractured his eyeballs (hence the black eyes). However this second injury brought him out of a coma but definitely affected his psychology, in that it made him (even?) more vacant. He also gets terrible headaches, probably related to the injuries, and is most likely addicted to painkillers because of this. In the Gorillaz he sings lead vocals and plays keyboards. 2-D used to go out with Rachel Stevens (of S Club7 fame) for a short while, but Murdoc kept trying to hit on Rachel and in the end it broke them up [source: Celebrity Take Down DVD]. Rachel Stevens wasn't the only girl that Murdoc drove away from 2D. Paula, who used to be in the Gorillaz was 2D's girlfriend for a time, and she left the band shortly after this photo was taken, due to 'a rather sticky incidnt involving Murdoc and her in the studio toilets (resulting in Russel punching Murdoc in the face so hard that he broke his nose in about 5 places)' [source: Dr.Wurzel's website]. When 2-D first went to the US in Summer 2001 he met Adam Yauch from the Beastie Boys in New York and was influenced to start promoting the 'Free Tibet' campaign (wearing a 'Free Tibet' tshirt at The Brits, and joining silent protests outside the Chinese embassy in London, redecorated his room). 2D apparently [according to the Noodleblast] messed around with a lot of girls during his time off. The start of Phase Two sees him wielding knives and flicking cigarettes in interviews, whilst using a number of swearwords to describe entries in the 'Search For A Star' contest... a new direction for the previously dopey 2D? Career Highlights Background in music: Instruments: Vocals, keyboards First band/big break: Gorillaz Former band(s):N/A How he joined the band: Murdoc involved 2-D in the formation of the band as part of his required community service sentence Musical icons/influences: The Human League, Augustus Pablo Best known for... Upcoming plans/side projects: Completing a law degree, apparently trying to become a model or an actor. Real people behind 2-D:
