So what exactly has Melissa Theuriau, the prettiest French newscaster to ever laced up the mics and stare at the teleprompter been up to since we last saw her? Answer: I have no idea, but these new pictures of her did show up online, and she looks real purty as usual. I swear, the woman can wake up in the middle of the night, hair all messed up, and those hazel eyes would still twinkle and those lips would still look inviting. I guess this must be what it’s like to be born beautiful; you just don’t have to try all that hard. God bless you beautiful people, I hate you all.

Holy mother of mercy. I can’t believe that the first time I saw Summer Glau on the old Firefly TV show, I thought she was just that skinny kid on that TV show that no one watched. I guess those Firefly fans knew better than me, because they immediately zeroed in on the show as being cool and Summer Glau in particular as being worthy of worship. Now Firefly is gone, but Summer Glau will be back on TV in The Sarah Connor Chronicles, playing a killer cyborg (but the good kind) who helps out our hero and Lena Headey. What I’m trying to get at is, Summer Glau has really become one incredibly hot woman over just a few short years, and I had no idea she had it in her. Check out those legs, those curves — mama mia! Say it with me now, boys, “Bikini candids, please!”

Just as the guys at Smallville got smart and added a super hot blonde to the show as Supergirl, the guys over at Supernatural also got smart and added two babes to their show’s Season 3: Katie Cassidy and Lauren Cohan. Now I don’t know if the producers of these shows are doing this on their own, or if the CW are demanding that they sex up their respective shows, but whoever got this ball rolling, I say, “Thanks!” We’ve already seen Katie Cassidy, a demon demon-killer (no, that wasn’t a typo) on Supernatural, but Lauren Cohan has yet to show up. But based on the previews we’ve seen of next week’s episode, it should be a nice intro to her badass character. That’s another thing: Not only are all these new injections of blood babelicious, but they’re all ass-kickers! Coincidence?

Man, I love Steve Francis. Not in the Brokeback Mountain sort of way, mind you, but in the, “Wow, I dig this guy’s game,” sort of way. Steve Francis started his career as a Houston Rocket before he got shipped off to Orlando, New York, and God knows how many other cities he ended up before finally returning to Houston this year. Welcome back, Stevie Franchise! We’ve missed you, bro! Now check out this monster put-back dunk by Stevie against the New Orleans Hornets. This was a pre-season game from earlier this week, and the basket didn’t count — they called a foul on Stevie. Can you believe that? No one calls a foul on the guy who pulls the put-back dunk! It’s like, an unofficial NBA rule or something. You just don’t call that foul, you zebra idiots! Great dunk anyway.

I’ll admit it and say that I don’t know what the new show Cashmere Mafia is all about. Heck, I can’t even tell you what cashmere is, or how it feels. Yeah, I’m that fashion-retarded. Go ahead and stone me — it still won’t make me know what cashmere is! Stop punishing me! But I digress. I may not know what cashmere is, or what the show Cashmere Mafia is about (I’m guessing it has cashmere in it, and the mafia), but I do know that they have some pretty hot number on the show, including Bonnie Somerville, Frances O’Connor, Lucy Liu, and Miranda Otto. Okay, so I have no idea who Somerville is, but I do know who the rest of the girls are, and they’re worth taking note off.

We all know that former Party of Five star Lacey Chabert has grown up. Boy did she ever grow up! Thankfully for us cleavage lovers, Lacey’s body has really ballooned, and not in the Kirsty Alley ballooning variety, but rather the va-va-voom variety. Which is the good variety, in case you were wondering. Here’s our tribute to a grown up Lacey Chabert and her party of two, if you know what I’m saying, and I think you do. Hint hint, wink wink, and all that jazz. Basically I’m talking about her cleavage. Oh vey, you guys are dense.

Who knew the Mexicans were producing TV hosts that looks like Rebecca de Alba nowadays? Well God bless them, because they are. Our Latin Flavor of the day is Rebecca de Alba, who hails from Zacatecas, Mexico, and despite being forty-four years young, she puts girls half her age to shame with that killer body and gorgeous face. The former Avon model turned TV personality once dated Ricky Martin, but that’s over now because, well, Ricky is gay, right? I thought someone told me he was gay. You guys are telling me he’s not? Oh well, it’s his lost, because if Rebecca de Alba was into me, I’d do everything to keep her. The woman is smoking hot, bros.

So I decided why force the Asian babes out there to share a category with the foreign babes? I gave the British girls their own category, so why not give the same props to the Asians? Thus, the Asian Babe of the Day column was born. And the first girl to grace its pages is Cristine Reyes, a Filipino model/actress from, well, the Philippines. What did you think Filipino meant? Anyways, she’s been in tons of TV movies, including hits like “Fantastic Man” and “”Super Twins”, and you know how much I like me my “Super Twins”. They’re, like, twins, and they’re super, too. That’s like twice as great, or something. Check out some Cristine Reyes.

It may be October in 2007, but don’t let that stop you from ordering your copy of Keeley Hazell’s upcoming 2008 calendar. Yeah, yeah, so you’ll have to wait two more months to actually use them — that is, if you’re one of those losers who buys calendars to, you know, actually use them in the first place, I mean. The rest of us mere mortals buy calendars like Keeley Hazell’s to stare and ogle when our girlfriends or wives aren’t looking. That’s what being a real man is all about, bro. In case you’re still not sure if you want to fork over the cash, take a look at Keeley’s 2008 calendar. All doubt will be erased from your weak, weak mind.

Sam Jackson kicks the ass of that punk who played young Darth Vader in “Jumper”: A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere. He discovers this gift has existed for centuries and finds himself in a war that has been raging for thousands of years between “Jumpers” and those who have sworn to kill them. From the director of The Bourne Identity and Mr. and Mrs. Smith — Jumper hits theaters February 15, 2008. Check out the trailer below. It co-stars hotties Rachel Bilson (in the trailer) and Diane Lane (not in the trailer for some reason). Should be fun stuff.

When was the last Australian supermodel that graced our sad and pathetic lives? Wasn’t it Elle McPherson? Wait, she was Australian, wasn’t she? Or was it Rachel Hunter? Well, it was either one of those or none of those. Look, I ain’t no librarian! But I digress. Our Random Supermodel of the Day is Megan Gale, who hails from Perth, Australia, but who actually launched her career in Italy before finally making good back at home Down Under. That exotic look is the result of being half British and half Polynesian, and besides looking good in almost nothing, she’s also well-versed in Australia’s local instrument, the didgeridoo. Now how many supermodels can say THAT?

Look! Up in the sky! It’s Stacey Cadman — the star of Cavegirl and Mile High! The latter show is about super hot British flight attendants and handsome airline pilots, and this being a British soap, I’m guessing the title “Mile High” means exactly what we think it means. According to Wikipedia, our girl is also an accomplished dancer and kickboxer, which makes her twice as hot. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again — there’s nothing hotter than a hot girl who can kick your ass ten ways to Sunday. And really, who would think a girl as innocent (albeit sexy) like Stacey Cadman would have the ability to deliver a killing kick to your throat?

God bless the people they have casting these Reality TV shows like Big Brother, because where else would you find so many good looking women so willing to take off their clothes for a risque magazine spread? Susannah Murray is one of the housemates of Australian Big Brother, known for going through a “mid-life” crisis when she turned 30 on the show, and thought that her life was over. Of course it’s not, as this spread by Susannah Murray will certainly attest. If this is one’s life being “over”, then damn, there’s a lot of girls out there who wishes their lives were over just like this!

I don’t know where they’re having this photoshoot with Hungarian model Rita Jozsa, but man, the poor girl looks cold by the way she keeps hugging herself with her arms. Rita, come on, you’re hiding the goods there, babe! Someone turn on the heater! But I digress. Rita Jozsa is one of the wannabe supermodels on Hungary’s version of the Tyra Banks disaster — er, I mean, Reality TV Competition show America’s Next Top Model. To be honest with you, I don’t know how great it would be to win Hungary’s Next Top Model. Is being the top model in Hungary really, you know, that much to brag about? But I digress. Rita Jozsa is pretty damn hot, so let’s all enjoy some Hungarian for now.

Our Random Foreign Babe of the Day, Laura Chiatti, makes me want to have a nice glass of wine and call Hannibal Lecter over for lunch, then just as he’s about to eat me, I’d whack him in the back of the head with a frying pan and then call the cops because, you know, I’m a law and order type of guy, and serial killer cannibals are a no-no in my book. But I digress. Laura Chiatti is an Italian actress and model, famous for doing, um, Italian TV and movies. Being that I can’t speak Italian or have ever seen an Italian TV show (although I have seen an Italian movie every now and then, usually now, but sometimes then when time permits), I’ve never seen any of her shows, but boy, I sure would like to.

In her new movie “Greta”, Hilary Duff plays a waitress who falls in love with the cook at her restaurant. The problem? He’s black, and she’s white, and that causes problems with her grandparents. I’m guess she lives with them or something, since why would you care what your grandparents think. Now I don’t know how the above description of “Greta” has to do with these pictures of Hilary Duff at the beach, soaking wet and looking, as the kids would say, slammin’ hot, but that’s where I’m told they’re from so I’m going to go with it. If I’m wrong, well, who cares, you got to see a soaking wet Hilary Duff. You complaining, chum?

Esquire Magazine has chosen its Sexiest Woman Alive for 2007, and surprisingly it’s not Rosie O’Donnell. (She was robbed, I tell ya!) The winner is “In the Valley of Elah” star Charlize Theron, who will be featured in the mag when the issue hits newsstands October 16th. Charlize is in good company. Past winners of the title includes Jessica Biel, Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johansson. So what put Charlize Theron on top? Well, she is an Oscar winner, and a Golden Globe winner, and a Screen Actors Guild winner. But amusingly, she won all those Awards for playing a really dirty, ugly serial killer. Basically, Charlize had to fugly herself up to win Awards, but this time she’s getting Awards for being super hot. But what REALLY put Charlize on top? I’m guessing great family genes had something to do with it. That and “Reindeer Games”, of course. Read all about it at Esquire.

Last week’s Houston Texans – Miami Dolphins football game was some pretty exciting stuff, not least of which because Dolphins quarterback Trent Green took one for the team — or more specifically, took a knee to the head, resulting in an injury that will, in all likelihood, put the kibosh on his NFL career for good. Making matters worst is that Green was going for a low cut block on Houston Texans player Travis Johnson, who nearly broke his neck when he went down as a result of Green’s tackle. It was an ugly scene in more ways than one, least of which because Johnson got up and started taunting Green, and then later, after the game, continued his tirade against what he perceived to be Green’s cheap shot. It’s a mess, and lost in all of it was the fact that Kris Brown of the Texans kicked a game-winning 57-yard field goal with 1 second left on the clock!

I know what you’re thinking: “Hmm, the Random Foreign Babe of the Day category sure gets a lot of German ladies…” but let me assure you, it’s all in your mind. There is no conspiracy. It just so happens that a lot of the lovely ladies of the world hail from Germany, such as Yvonne Catterfeld, a singer, actress, and TV host. You know, maybe Hitler was onto something when he declared that Germans were the Master Race. Or maybe not. As we know by now, Hitler was a frakkin’ douche bag, so nevermind that last sentence. Get some Deutschland lovin’ with Yvonne Catterfeld. One of her music videos included for your listening (and visual) pleasure.

The British have Hollyoaks, a TV show that spuns off enough hotties to fill a whole blog onto itself, and the Australians have Neighbours, a show that has spun off hotties like Nicky Whelan and now, Kym Valentine. Our lovely Aussie lass played Libby Kennedy on the show, and before that, she was on something called My Two Wives. Aside from Neighbours, Kym Valentine hasn’t done very much else, at least according to IMDB.com. But I’m sure the movie site isn’t the be-all and end-all of one’s resume, so Kym Valentine has to have done other things too, right? How could a woman this hot not have other jobs being thrown at her? Impossible, I say!
