Robert Allan Arnold (13 August 1982), commonly known as Rob Arnold, is a postie from Wellington, New Zealand, who achieved more than his fair share of fifteen minutes of fame in a New Zealand boy band, Boyband, as the gay boy. Their debut single, a remake of the classic Kinks song "You Really Got Me", debuted at #1 on the New Zealand Music Charts on 9 October 2006. Before Boyband, Rob had auditioned for every series of New Zealand Idol, as well as achieving minor notoriety by auditioning twice on reality show “Showstoppers”, the second time in disguise, incurring the anger of judge Michael Hurst. He also appeared on the ill-fated TV Reality TV Show "The Ultimate Challenge". He has also appeared on Maori Television's "Te Mika Show" in 2006 and TVNZ’s "How Normal Are You". Growing up in Porirua, Rob is the youngest of five children. He and his older sister Jaime Arnold, who is the current holder of the "Ms Gay Downunder" title and a former columnist for UP magazine, controversially won the Cutest Couple award at the Glammies (a Wellington gay community award ceremony), in which Rob also took home the "Spunkiest Boy" Award. In the same year he was crowned "Queer Idol", as part of the UniQ Pride Week celebrations. He has done numerous modeling jobs, appeared in small roles a number of feature-length films, and appeared on the cover of “Capital Times” as a male cheerleader. See also
