Eddie Goines II is about to become one of the most envied men on Earth. Beginning today, Goines' fellow males will sit before their TV sets and watch him play romantic foil to the glamorous Beyoncé Knowles in the video for her new single, "If I Were A Boy." Goines, a former Lakeland High School football player, said he has already been feeling the envy from friends who learned about what may be the biggest break in his acting career. "Oh my goodness, the conversations and phone calls have been crazy, crazy, crazy," Goines said by phone from Los Angeles, where he lives.

Goines, a 1990 graduate of Lakeland High, has serious hopes that the exposure will vault him to new opportunities in the thespian world, a realm he has found to be just as competitive as football. "The song is so powerful, it's going to be a big deal," said Goines, whose father lives in Auburndale. "It's just up to me to capitalize on it."
