Born in Australia, singer-actor Rick Springfield says one of his favorite destinations is nearby New Zealand.
Even Rick Springfield is surprised that his latest album -- "Venus in Overdrive" -- has charted higher than his 1982 breakthrough record "Working Class Dog."The latter spawned the hit singles "I've Done Everything for You," "Love is Alright Tonite" and, of course, "Jessie's Girl."
As well known for his singing as his tall, angular good looks, Springfield is back on the road to promote "Venus.""My wife loves that I'm on the road -- it keeps our relationship fresh," says Springfield, 59. "If I'm home too long, she'll say, 'Aren't you supposed to be out on the road?' It has worked for us for 24 years, so I'm not looking to change things up for a long time."
Born in Australia and currently a resident (and citizen) of the United States, the Grammy Award-winning singer counts traveling as one of the perks of his job. He got to spend three weeks back in Oz recently and says he can't wait to get back to Hawaii. ("I can imagine living in Maui one day," he says.) But one of his favorite destinations is New Zealand.
