The Random Stuff of Interests Page

Actress Ever Carradine, besides being the niece of of former Kung Fu star David Carradine, has joined the seventh season of FOX’s action-adventure show 24. Besides being one of those children who could only be named by people who are “in the business” (seriously, who names their kid “Ever”?), David Carradine’s niece is quite the hottie. In the show, Ever will play a FBI agent who, in all likelihood, will get in Jack Bauer’s way until she’s killed off by terrorist or the like. Basically, if you’re a girl and you end up crossing Jack Bauer’s path, you ain’t gonna last long. Just ask — well, everyone on the show not named Kim Bauer. Production on the seventh season began last month, though people are still wondering what will happen if star Kiefer Sutherland gets thrown in the slammer for his DUI.

The thing about the CBS military show The Unit is this — I’m so shocked it last past its first season. Not because it’s not a good show, but because it’s a damn great show, and I love it, but I just never thought action-adventure shows set in a military setting would last as long as it did on network TV. Usually, these kind of shows need to go into syndication, where the ratings demands aren’t quite so high, to make it. But hey, why look a gift horse in the mouth? It’s a great show, and it features two smoking hot stars in Abby Brammell and Audrey Marie Anderson, who plays wives of the show’s Delta Force soldiers — or operators, as the show calls them. Great show, great cast, and great action. Check it out.

For someone who is about to blow up on the ABC show Grey’s Anatomy as, possibly, a new love interest for Patrick Dempsey’s character, aka Dr. McDreamy to you girls (and, um, some guys) out there, there sure isn’t a whole lot of Lauren Stamile out there. But I did find a couple on IMDB.com, plus this show reel of her on YouTube. Wait, I’m getting way too ahead of myself. Lauren Stamile is a new cast member on the popular show Grey’s Anatomy’s current season. No one is saying what character she’ll play, or who she’ll end up boinking with in the hospital stairways, but never you mind that. After guest starring in a ton of TV shows, it must be nice to finally land a major breakthrough role. Oh, Hollywood really IS a land of dreams!

I don’t know why we haven’t heard more about ABC’s Football Wives, the American remake of the British show Footballers Wives (with football being soccer over there, and football being, well, real football over here), but I’m guessing it’s probably because the show sucks, so no one wants to put it out there to be ridiculed. Or if not, then wow, they’re really burying a show with some pretty big names attached. How big? Try Arielle Kebbel, Gabrielle Union, Holly Robinson Peete, Kiele Sanchez, and Lucy Lawless. Okay, so only Lucy Lawless and Gabrielle Union is kinda big, but you know, for regular readers of this site, there’s no one bigger than the super hot Arielle Kebbel. The show may still be hidden, but promos of the girls for the show are already out and about. Check them out.

This is, bar none, the best thing to happen to Reality TV since Britney Spears showed the world what a frakkin’ moron she is with her show Chaotic. In this one, you have Danny Bonaduce, who looks like the Hulk on steroids, and Jonny (Jon Dalton) Fairplay, that dork from Survivor who told everyone his grandma died so he would get the sympathy vote. So they’re at some Reality TV shindig, up on stage, when Fairplay hops into Bonaduce’s arms and starts, from what I can tell, dry humping his face. So what does Bonaduce do? He does what any man would do — he throws Fairplay over his shoulder and to the floor, where Fairplay’s face said “Hi!” to the floor. Word is, Fairplay lost a couple of teeth, and is now suing Bonaduce for assault! Talk about great moments in TV.

If you haven’t been watching NBC’s new crime show Life, you’re missing out on one of the best new shows of 2007. It’s a great show, starring Damian Lewis as a cop who is framed for murder, but is released when evidence proves otherwise. Now he’s a cop with a new perspective on crime, which helps him solve them. The show co-stars the gorgeous Sarah Shahi, coming off The L Word, as Lewis’ partner. Shahi’s character is a fantastic one, too, and definitely nothing you’ve seen before. The characters are complex and that’s what makes Life as good as it is. And did I mention that Sarah Shahi is damn hot?

There are four reasons to watch CBS’ soon-to-be-canceled TV show Cane (oh come on, we all know it’s going to be canceled, right?), and they are: Lina Esco, Polly Walker, Paola Turbay, Alona Tal. Basically, yeah, the girls are the only reason to watch this show, and to catch it quick before CBS cancels it. I’m sorry for fans of the show, but it ain’t gonna last, and I think you know it. It’s not the primarily Latin cast or anything, but the show just isn’t very appealing. The TV public is pretty lame nowadays, and something like Cane will never catch on. Then again, I could be wrong. Anyways, check out some promos for the lovely ladies of Cane below.

Wouldn’t the world just be the perfect place if every day you could post pictures of Elisabetta Gregoraci and call it “Elisabetta Gregoraci [Insert Clothes Type Here] Madness” day? I know I would be at my computer every day trying to get another glimpse of the gorgeous Italian model/actress/wet dreams idol. Here is a very brief look at Elisabetta Gregoraci selling someone’s lingerie line. I don’t know why Elisabetta Gregoraci doesn’t just make her own line of clothes (or lack of clothes, ahem) and sell them herself. That body alone would sell a bunch of lingerie or bikini to the guys who are pretending to be buying them for their “girlfriends”.

How funny is it that hot-to-trot actresses Blake Lively and Leighton Meester, stars of the CW’s High School-set show Gossip Girl, are at MTV’s Total Request Live studio surrounded by real High School teens, and you can see that the contrast between the real High School girls and the TV versions are like night and day. Priceless! But in any case, in an effort to promote their show for the teen crowd (their audience), Blake Lively and Leighton Meester surrendered their souls momentarily to show up at TRL, the site of all evil. Good thing they’re both attractive girls, because I know surviving a visit to TRL takes a lot out of one’s soul.

Besides being engaged to former The Bachelor star Andrew Firestone, our Random Supermodel of the Day Ivana Bozilovic may or may not actually qualify as being a supermodel, but she is a model, and it’s been a hell of a long time since I made an entry into this column, so here it is. Although of Serbian origins, our girl was born in Chicago, Illinois, making her an all-American girl in every respect. Since her modeling days, she’s gone into acting, with roles in “100 Girls”, “National Lampoon’s Van Wilder” and “Wedding Crashers”. And oh yeah, did I mention she’s now engaged to that guy who used to be on The Bachelor? Lucky bastard. Ivana is a major catch for sure.

British model/actress Elizabeth Hurley cares about breast research, and we’re proud of her, because we care about Elizabeth Hurley’s breasts…research, too. Here’s Elizabeth doing a Breast Cancer Research Foundation gig. But forget that for a moment. Let me talk about breasts for a second here. I love breasts. There are two things in this world that I love more than breasts, and that’s the right and the left breast. Seriously, when God created women and slapped those two hills on them, he knew what he was doing. If you give man a choice between breasts and a nice car, they’d go with the breasts. Or at least I would. But then again, I’ve never touched a live breast before, and you know, the anticipation is killing me. (I could just steal a car…)

The British are coming! The British are coming! Well, the British women, anyway. (Okay, there are some men, too, but we don’t really care for them all that much here. It’s British women or bust, baby!) If you’ve turned on the TV recently, you’ll notice that British babes are all over the place, some fronting new shows, and others co-starring in them. Leading the pack is Michelle Ryan, who came from EastEnders to star in NBC’s Bionic Woman, followed by Anna Friel (ex-Brookside) in ABC’s Pushing Daisies, and then there are Sophia Myles and Lena Headey from Moonlight and The Sarah Connor Chronicles, respectively. And let’s not forget Parminder Nagra, who is in her, what, 50th season of ER? For a full list of British Babes invading American shores, check out here. For now, let’s get to the pictures.

So what do you do when you have a super hot country singer looking to cross over to the mainstream, and you have a love song that isn’t really all that great, unless you’re into sappy love songs? Well, since you have a super hot country music, you put her on a bed in the middle of the desert, make sure she wears no clothes, and cover her up with silk bedsheets and have her writhe around the bed. No, really, that’s basically what they did with this video for Faith Hill’s Breathe. Okay, not really, there are scenes where she’s in a silk dress doing weird hand gestures or something. But basically the parts you should pay attention to is the naked under the sheets parts. It is, bar none, one of the sexiest damn music videos I’ve ever seen.

You may not like her father, but you gotta admit, Jenna Bush is growing up to be a nice looking young woman. With pops getting ready to leave the White House in 2008, Jenna is out promoting her non-fiction book “Ana’s Story”, which tells her story while working for UNICEF in Latin America. I’m sure being the daughter of the President of the United States didn’t hurt to get that book published, but hey, who is going to argue when we get to see Jenna out and about? Hmm, let’s see — Jenna Bush or Chelsea Clinton? Yeah, I’m gonna go with Jenna.

Our Random Foreign Babe of the Day, Alexandra Kamp, hails from Germany — Baden-Baden, West Germany, to be exact, which as we all know, is close to Cool-Cool, East Germany. Right? I mean, that’s what my geography class told me, and as everyone knows, my knowledge of world geography is second only to my ability to bullshit you about my genius in geography. Having said that, take my word for it, Alexandra Kamp is worth going to Baden-Baden for. That is, if she was there waiting for you. I mean, what the hell, you going to fly all the way there if she’s not there? Of course not, that would just be stupid. And you’re not stupid, are you?

Our Latin Flavor of the day Mariana Mancini is extremely flavorable; it’s just too bad we don’t have a whole lot of her pictures to show you. But what we do have is pretty damn awesome, and they certainly let you see what it is about Mariana Mancini that made us feature her in the first place. She’s one of the contestants on the Latin version of Big Brother, called Gran hermano over down South. In this case, the fifth season. I don’t know if she won or not, because let’s face it, I’m way too lazy to do more research than the above, which already took too much out of me. I mean, come on, what am I, a library? But I digress. Enjoy some Mariana Mancini yumminess.

Oh my my my. I guess it comes as no surprise to anyone who knows their Italian ladies, but Maria Grazia Cucinotta in particular, that our latest entry in the Celebrity Cleavage column is Maria Grazia Cucinotta, former Bond girl and all-around babe. I’m not sure what Maria is doing now, but I’m guessing having been a Bond Girl goes a pretty long way, which should serve her well in her career to come. And in fact, IMDB.com lists a ton of movies to her credit in the coming years, but I’ve never heard a single one of those movies, so I don’t know if they’re big-time or not. Then again, the last time I went to the movies it was 1988, so who am I to talk. Check out some Maria Grazia Cucinotta cleavage and have a great Tuesday.

It’s not your imagination if you think Sarah Silverman is a dirty, dirty girl. She is, but that’s more her schtick than anything, I believe. But it’s no surprise why you would think she’s a dirty girl, because let’s face it, everytime you see her, she’s either grabbing her crotch, grabbing someone else’s crotch, or sticking hr tongue out in a suggestive manner. And then there are all those jokes on MTV award shows. Here’s Sarah Silverman, looking so cute outside David Letterman’s show. Not just cute, but incredibly normal. See? The girl can be normal when she doesn’t try too hard, which she’s not in this case. Now just wait for the crotch grabbing and joke about how Bob Saget of Full House fame is secretly a pedophile…

There’s not a whole lot of great music videos that stick to my mind, but I gotta say, the Beastie Boys’ Sabotage music video is one of the best I’ve ever seen. Besides being a great work of genius by director Spike Jonze, who would go on to direct insanely good movies like “Being John Malkovich” and “Adaptation”, it was a very different music video that parodied the cop shows of the ’70s. You had the Beastie Boys walking around in sagging pants, sporting ridiculous mustaches, and going around beating people up. Plus, the song was just fantastic, and I don’t think it had anything to do with the music video at all, which makes it even better. Here’s the Beastie Boys’ Sabotage.

Haven’t heard all that much from Sheryl Crow ever since she made that mind-bogglingly stupid statement about how we should all use one layer of toilet paper to clean our dirty asses after we go to the bathroom in order to save the planet. Well, okay, so that’s one of the dumber things a hot girl has ever said, but being hot and whatnot, she gets a break. And after showing up on the cover and inside the pages of Shape Magazine showing off some riotously groovy abs, I’m gonna pretend Sheryl Crow never said that dumb thing about toilet paper. Which means you should forget what I just wrote to start off this post. Okay? Great. Now enjoy some crow.
