The Random Stuff of Interests Page

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!

Isn’t there supposed to be some kind of Indian law against their Bollywood actresses looking this sexy in public? I’m sure there is, but if I’m wrong, then nevermind, don’t go sending me emails and whatnot. Dudes, I don’t want anymore emails. No, really! Ahem. Anyways, here’s some spicy curry with Kashmira Shah, a beauty queen turned movie star turned sex bomb. Check out one of the pictures of Kashmira Shah covered in glitter while wearing very little. Either she’s headed toward a glitter show (is there even such a thing? Eh, just go with it) or this is a masterful and calculated move to get publicity. You go, girl!

I gotta tell you, if I knew the women who plays tennis nowadays would look like Anna Kournikova, Maria Sharapova, and Serbian tennis babe Vojislava Lukic, I would have taken up tennis. Well, okay, I tried to play tennis for a while, but that was only because I was really bored and my brother happen to have a couple of rackets, and he never had anyone to play with, so I sort of filled in every now and then. But man, if I knew the girls that would be populating the tennis tour would look like Vojislava Lukic? Holy mother of God. I would have hired every tennis pro I could find to teach me how to play just to rub shoulders (and other body parts, ahem) with these women. Tennis rocks!

Our Brit Babe Invasion dame of the day is Nicola Roberts, a British singer and one of the five members of the Brit all-girl pop band Girls Aloud. Of the five girls, Nicola Roberts may be one of the least well known; that is, she’s the least well known to me, as I only just discovered her today, which is a bit odd since I’ve been posting Girls Aloud pics for a while now. But hey, senility does that to you. Wait, what was I typing about? (See? It struck again!) But I digress. Enjoy some Nicola Roberts and call me in the morning. (Or not.)

It’s funny, but I don’t see Brooke Burns on the TV as often as I used to. Back in the day, she was the tall, leggy host of NBC’s game show called Dog Eat Dog, but after that show got canceled, I haven’t seen much of her. Which is entirely my fault, because according to IMDB.com, she’s been working steadily ever since, with gigs on the failed TV show North Shore and a starring turn in the direct-to-video sequel to “Single White Female”, which was not nearly as sexy as it could (or should) have been, I might add. Recently you probably could have caught her back on TV in Pepper Dennis with Rebecca Romijn, but alas that show didn’t last very long. Now, you can see Brooke Burns at the beach, wowing with that perfect bikini body of hers. Holy Gods.

The upcoming seventh season of FOX’s aging action-adventure show 24 keeps on rolling, this time announcing that Canadian actress Carly Pope has join the cast as the girlfriend of the show’s female President’s son, who apparently has gone missing. I’m guessing the dude just went for a ride or something, or maybe got mugged when he went to the “cities” for some grass. But I could be wrong. The first time I noticed Carly Pope was for a movie called “Nemesis Game” with that guy from Highlander. It was okay, but man, Carly Pope sure was purty in it. Besides that movie, she’s guest-starred on Tru Calling, Dirt, and a ton of Canadian movies and TV shows I’ve never seen. Check her out in 24 coming soon.

So I’ve been hearing about this throwdown between Jon Stewart and Chris Matthews on the Daily Show forever this morning, and finally found the clip of it. The confrontation only lasts for a minute or so, and the rest is a lot of talking about what happened. Basically, Matthews went on The Daily Show to hawk his book and expected to find a friendly audience, but instead Stewart lit into him. It’s great stuff, and you sort of feel sorry for Matthews after a while. Well, sort of, if he wasn’t such an overbearing douche bag, that is. The best line? Matthews asks Stewart to come on his show, and Stewart replies with a straight face: “I don’t troll.” Oh…my…GOD.

The world is so great today that I decided it was the perfect time to indulge a little bit more in some Elisabetta Gregoraci lingerie madness, which is based on the fact that Elisabetta Gregoraci looks really damn good in lingerie, and posting pictures of said Italian hottie in said undergarments. Basically, that’s it. If you need more justification than that, then you are reading the wrong site, buster, and may I recommend Disney.com? But if I’m wrong, stay a while and marvel at what a real woman looks like when she slips on something silky. Oh my, the world is so fantastic, isn’t it?

Sure, sure, everyone focuses on Jennifer Morrison as the resident babe on FOX’s hit show House, and why not? She’s a major babe. But there is another, lesser known babe on the show, and her name is Lisa Edelstein. Who else could keep Doctor House and his grumpy ways in check but Lisa Edelstein? Maybe it’s the glorious figure, or the tough-chick persona, or maybe it’s just because Lisa Edelstein is pretty damn hot and House probably wants to get inside her smock, but — um, where was I? Oh right, pay attention to Lisa Edelstein, she’s House’s OTHER resident babe. And hey, geeks, get this: Lisa Edelstein is the voice of Mercy Graves on the cartoon Justice League Unlimited.

I still haven’t heard a single song that Rihanna has sung (although I might have heard some of those songs that she sang along with those rappers, you know, that genre that was so in vogue a few years ago, but you couldn’t catch in a dark alleyway with a net nowadays — that’s hip-hop for ya), but that isn’t going to stop me from posting these pictures of the gorgeous lass in the latest issue of FHM magazine. This edition hails from France, I believe, but I could be wrong. And if I am, well, who cares, they’re French, I don’t think they’ll mind. And if they do, tough nuts.

Some Elsa Pataky never hurt no one, and they certainly brighten up a boring and dull Tuesday. Since we’re going to post pictures of her, here are some attempts at lamely justifying it, by offering you some of her bio from Wikipedia: “Elsa Pataky was born in Madrid, Spain, and is fluent in Spanish, French, English and Romanian. Pataky attended the Universidad de San Pablo and studied journalism. During this time, Pataky also enrolled in acting classes. She was also a member of the Madrid theatre company, Teatro Cámara de Ángel Guitiérrez. Eventually, she left school when she was cast in the television series Al Salir de Clase.” Yeah, that’s the ticket.

Josie Maran may have been eliminated from Dancing with the Stars (I don’t care what anyone says, that show just don’t make sense, and I still can’t fathom it’s popularity), but that isn’t going to stop me from posting new pictures of her. Here’s Josie Maran in the latest issue of Shape Magazine, showing off her shape, and what a nice looking shape it is. Then again, she is a model turned actress, so having a slammin’ body (as the kids would say) is no surprise. Check out the cover and an interior picture of Josie Maran in a two-piece bikini. I tell ya, Shape Magazine is really doing good work lately, and all without being risque, too.

Reaper is another show I haven’t seen yet, but the commercials really look funny. Plus, it features two bona fide hotties and one gorgeous babe in Missy Peregrym and Valarie Rae Miller, with Peregrym filling in the hottie and the gorgeous babe category. No offense to Miller, but she still has a ways to go to look as drop dead hot as Missy Peregrym, who left a hit show in NBC’s Heroes to take a stab at a leading lady role in Reaper. I’m hoping it works out for her, because the best thing about a show based around being “geeky” is having a really hot girl as the lead. Hey, if the slacker character in the show can get Missy, why not us? Check out Reaper on the CW, but before that, check out these promos of Missy Peregrym and Valarie Rae Miller.

So this is a little bit tricky. Who do you believe: the douche bag that cheats on his wife, or the mistress who knowingly joined in the cheating with him? That’s the question at the heart of this debate about whether to believe what Barry Bonds’ former mistress, Kimberly Bell, says or not. According to Bell, Bonds “spoke to her about using steroids to repair an elbow injury in the late 1990s”. Obviously this goes against what Bonds says, who claims he never used steroids, EVER, and if he did, then he wasn’t aware of it. Also according to Bell, Bonds’ steroid use “led to physical changes that only a lover would see, including occasional faltering sexual performance.” Again, who do you believe? The guy who cheated on his wife, or the girl who willingly cheated with him? You decide.
