The Random Stuff of Interests Page

I can’t recall the last time I actually watched MTV’s silly Video Music Awards. Oh sure, I’ve tuned in by accident while channel surfing, but I’ve never actually stayed to watch. Maybe I’m just not “hip” enough to give a frig about who wins what pointless award (seriously, does anyone care who wins the VMA?), or maybe I’m just too smart to lose brain cells to the show. But you know what? If the VMA can promise me more visions of delight, aka Nicole Scherzinger, then I’m going to give tuning in a try. No, really. I’ll tune in, like, for a couple of minutes or something, which is a couple of minutes more than I USUALLY tune in, so you know it has to be special. Yes, Nicole Scherzinger is THAT special to me — in the good kind of “special”, ahem.

Don’t mistake Fernanda Lima for her fellow countrymen Adriana Lima, although the two does look kinda similar. That is, if you’re frakkin’ blind, because they don’t look anything alike. Besides having a better body (love the abs work, Fernanda), Fernanda Lima doesn’t have a half-bad face. She’s also got more oomph in the career department, working as a Brazilian actress, TV host and of course, model. And hey, she’s even socially conscience — there are a couple of pictures of her here at the recent Live Earth concert. Yeah, yeah, I know, Live Earth was a waste of everyone’s time, but since Fernanda Lima was there, I’m going to say it was good and go with it. Check out Fernanda Lima and her tattoos.

If you were inclined to keep track of such things, the latest winner of Miss England is Georgia Horsley. She takes the crown formerly held by Eleanor Mary Anne Glynn of Oxford, and will be representing England in the upcoming Miss World competition (not to be confused with the Miss Universe version). Georgia Horsley hails from Norton, and actually competed in the Miss England pageant in 2005, but lost out to Hammasa Kohistani of London. Here’s a recent shoot with the recently crowned Miss England. I think she has a great career ahead of her in lingerie and bikini modeling. Failing that, she can always model privately for me in my basement.

When you think celebrity cleavage, you don’t think Brittany Snow. Then again, I don’t think Brittany Snow very often, but maybe I should start, because she’s not only showing some mighty fine cleavage here, but she’s not an altogether bad looking girl. And of course by “not altogether bad” I mean she’s way beyond my league, but I’m going to pretend like she’s not anyway because that’s just how I like to roll. You can catch Brittany Snow in the upcoming horror remake of “Prom Night”, where if the Gods are listening, we’ll be treated to more pictures of Brittany Snow cleavage. I hear prom dresses are designed for just that.

Here’s a public service announcement just in case you are one of the dumbasses who haven’t realized that Spanish actress Paz Vega is really, really hot: “Paz Vega is really, really hot.” Got that? Okay, now go to your parent’s room, take some money out of your mom’s purse, and send them to me. Yes, don’t worry, she’ll never know. It’ll just be between you and I, and I promise I won’t tell anyone. Well, okay, I won’t tell anyone as long as you do as I say, so hurry up, my basement is getting cold. Wait, where was I? Oh right, Paz Vega is really, really hot. See for yourself if you don’t believe me.

At the risk of having my Too Cool for School license revoked (as if I had one to begin with, I know, just go along with it), I actually used to listen to country music. No, it’s true. And yeah, I was listening to it BEFORE girls like Faith Hill et al turned the genre into a great place to find sexy women. I actually listened to country music for — gasp — the music! But you know what, with girls like Taylor Swift now dominating the scene, I can go back to country music and pretend I’m back for the music, but I’m really back for the girls. Ooooh yeah, it’s a perfect plan. How could it go wrong? Conclusion: It cannot!

Whenever I see pictures of Australian beauty Nicky Whelan, the first thing that keeps coming to my mind is: “Wow, I can’t believe David Spade was hitting this. David Spade is my hero!” Now I don’t know if they’re still dating or what, or if they even really dated in the first place, but you gotta hand it to little Davie Spade, the kid did alright. I guess being famous DOES have its benefits! In any case, here’s more of Nicky Whelan, the Australian Neighbours star in the Australian edition of FHM Magazine. It’s interesting, but the magazine doesn’t really show off Nicky’s greatest assets — her body. They sort of hide her body in some weird poses. Oh well, still makes me tingle all over.

So I was sitting at home, as I am wont to do, and it’s really late at night (because, you know, I have absolutely no life whatsoever), and I was watching a repeat of the 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event on ESPN. Suddenly this really cute Japanese girl, dressed in a kimono, shows up onscreen. The announcer says her name is Tamao Sato, and that she “won” her seat at the WSOP (a $10,000 buy-in!) on a Japanese game show. Which spurred me to find out more about her. I can’t help it, when I see someone this captivating, I must know more! Well I’ve found out more: Apparently Tamao Sato is an actress/TV host in Japan, and she actually hosts a Saturday morning show in Japan! And oh yeah, she’s also a well-known bikini model in Japan. Me likey long time!

I’m still kind of stunned that British actress Rosamund Pike is not more famous than she is in the States. What does a woman have to do to gain worldwide fame? She’s been in major movies (”Die Another Day”), she’s starred in big movies (”Doom”), and she’s done movies with big name actors like Anthony Hopkins (”Fracture”), and yet if you were to ask 10 people if they knew who Rosamund Pike was, I’m willing to bet 9 of them wouldn’t have a clue, and the 10th one would have to think about it. Which is a crying shame, as Rosamund Pike deserves to be recognized everywhere. In any case, here’s my little part in helping Rosamund to get noticed some more. Sundays with Rosamund Pike (here attending the Toronto Film Festival) is always a good thing.

The beautiful Malin Akerman’s latest movie is the Ben Stiller comedy “The Heartbreak Kid”, one of those movies I’ll never end up seeing because, well, truth be told, I sort of think Ben Stiller comedies are kinda sucky, and as such wouldn’t voluntarily seek it out, even if it does star the lovely Malin Akerman. And make no mistake, Malin Akerman is quite the heartbreaker. Here are some pictures of Malin Akerman from “The Heartbreak Kid” and a couple of her attending the movie’s premiere. The film co-stars Stiller, Michelle Monaghan, and the extremely unfunny Carlos Mencia.

The Vanessa Anne Hudgens sex scandal continues unabated, as pervy kids (and adults, and you know who you are) were all over the Internet searching for nude pictures of the “High School Musical” star. After some denials and finally confirmation that Yes, those were indeed picture of the 18-year old Disney Channel star that were floating around the net, in case you’re still wondering, Vanessa has now issued an apology to “her fans”, which means not you and me, unless you consider being her “fans” means liking the fact that she’s a pretty girl who likes to get nude for her boyfriends and send them pictures of her being said nude, then yeah, I’m a pretty big fan of hers!

Talk about a literal British Babe Invasion! Nowadays you can’t turn on an American TV show without seeing a British lass parlaying an excellent command of the American accent into a starring role. One such babe is Anastasia Griffith, who has used having an American father into a co-starring role on the FX Channel’s critically acclaimed show “Damages”, which stars Glenn Close as a cut-throat lawyer that goes around suing people. I think. I haven’t actually seen the show, but I hear it’s pretty bloody good, so you might want to take a look at it. And oh yeah; when you have a name like “Anastasia”, it certainly helps to be hot, and Anastasia Griffith is certainly hot.

After seven years of marriage, “The Office” star Jenna Fischer and her writer/director husband James Gunn (”Dawn of the Dead”, “Slithers”) are calling it quits. They said this in a joint statement posted on Fischer’s Myspace page: “We (James and Jenna) need to announce that we have chosen to separate. We are sorry for any pain this causes family and friends. The enthusiasm we have expressed for each other’s lives, spirits, and careers is real – we have been each other’s cheerleader and friend during the past six years and continue to be so now and in the future.” Normally I can find someone to blame when celebrities divorce, but in this case? I don’t know. They both seem like good people, so a divorce is probably the product of never seeing each other and just falling out of love. Oh well. Call me, Jenna! I’m listed in the book!

Oh dear, there goes the Disney movie contracts. It would appear that previous reports that High School Musical star (parts 1 and 2) Vanessa Anne Hudgens has indeed been a naughty girl, snapping naked pictures of herself and sending them to boyfriend and HSM co-star Zac Efron. Earlier today, the nude pictures started surfacing all over the web, sending Vanessa’s no-doubt mammoth team of lawyers on a “we’ll sue your ass!” spree. Obviously we don’t have the nude pictures, and we don’t intend to have them, so if you came here hoping to see them, sorry, kids, it ain’t gonna happen. We’re a family site. Well, sort off. But these guys here aren’t.

I don’t know if former Big Brother UK contestant Chanelle Hayes will have an actual career past these next few years, after the glow of being a contestant on a Reality TV show has faded away into the night like Paris Hilton’s movie career, but if I have anything to say about it, the woman is going to live on well pass her fame. Why would I wish to do this? One reason: Chanelle Hayes is friggin’ hot. That’s basically all there is to get into my good graces, boys and girls. So let this be a lesson to you: I like hot people; I don’t like hot people not so much. And Chanelle Hayes? Definitely smoking hot.

I don’t know if these pictures of Michelle Ryan doing a one-arm pull-up are promo images from her upcoming show “Bionic Woman”, but either way, it just turns me on something awful. I don’t know what it is about an attractive woman who can do one-arm pull-ups and kick my ass, but I can’t get enough of them. Chances are, these are just promo images from the show, but it’s the illusion that matters, and right now the illusion makes me just so Godawful hot for Michelle Ryan…

It’s been a looooooooong time since we’ve had a good ol fashion Western, and while I don’t know if the upcoming 3:10 to Yuma qualifies as a “good ol fashion” Western, it is a Western with major Hollywood names behind it, so whatever it is, it should look pretty damn good. But since it’s been so damn long since a good Western made me go nuts over it, I’m going to give the film every leeway I can, because frankly, Westerns are a dying breed, and it’s up to us to support them. Plus, 3:10 to Yuma stars Vinessa Shaw, who is one hot cookie. I hear tell she has a major nude scene in the movie, which is a major plus. But make no mistake, I’m there for the cowboy action. Uh, I mean, “action” as in gunfights and whatnot, not the Brokeback Mountain type of “cowboy action”. Ahem.

I don’t know what they’re feeding these country girls down on the farm, but they need to keep it up, because they’re producing some incredibly hot women. Give them a slinging guitar and some cowboy boots, and we’re talking Country Goodness in the extreme. While I’m sure airbrushing played a part in making Miranda Lambert look practically angelic in these pictures, I’m going out on a limb and attributing to the good looks to good genes and lots of corn. If Miranda looks familiar, you probably recognize her as one of the finalists on the Reality TV singing competition “Nashville Star”, but from now on you can just call her the girl in your dreams that you’ll never get to first base with.

Who is Belen Rodriguez, our Latin Flavor of the day? I don’t know, but I sure would like to get to know her a little bit more, and by “know her” I of course mean hide behind the bush in front of her house with a telephoto lens, except, of course, I don’t have a camera, and I can’t work a telephoto camera to save my life, which is really weird and pathetic, in case you were wondering. Anyhoo. As far as I can tell, Belen Rodriguez is a model and actress, but more of a model, since IMDB only lists a couple of credits to her name, and she’s seen a lot in magazines like Matrix and others. And plus, anyone who looks this fantastic in a two-piece bikini is more model than actress, I don’t know what anyone else says.

The big news around the celebrity gossip watercooler (a place I try to avoid, it being kinda stinky and all, especially in the afternoons) is that Oscar winner Halle Berry is 3-months preggers with the love child of Canadian male model Gabriel Aubrey (the couple pictured left). And here I thought the only good thing about being a male model was banging hot chicks and, er, well, I guess that’s pretty great, considering who Aubry has bee putting it to since 2005. Says Berry about the news: “Gabriel and I are beyond excited, and I’ve waited a long time for this moment in life. Now the next seven months will be the longest of my life!” Expect a rush marriage followed by a divorced a year or two from now.
