The Random Stuff of Interests Page

On her official website, our Random Foreign Babe of the Day, Slovakia’s own Martina Schindler writes: “Many people consider me to be an “ice queen”, although I’m really not like that. But when I have to stand in front of the cameras, I find it hard to show my true emotions and I don’t want to force them out of me.” Hey, Martina, I know how you feel, doll. Whenever I’m in front of the camera, I get this weird need to take off my clothes, and people keep telling me that that’s not polite or something lame like that. I mean, come on, you gotta do what you gotta do, right?

English model Nell McAndrew is a dirty girl. No, not in the sense that Christina Aguilera tried desperately to be “drrrty” back in her “I don’t wanna be innocent anymo!” phase. Dirty in the sense that, even covered in dirty for a photoshoot, Nell McAndrew is still smoking hot. Seriously, I don’t know what this woman would have to do to NOT be super hot, but I don’t want to find out. Or, if I do end up finding out, I’m going to pretend I didn’t, because frankly, I’d rather have the fantasy of Nell McAndrew in her uber gorgeous glory than the alternative. That’s just how I like to roll, yo.

If you happen to stumble across FOX’s hit new sitcom Back to You, you might have asked yourself who the hot brunette with the impressive rack and killer comedic timings was. No, I’m not talking about Patricia Heaton, although she certainly qualifies, but rather Ayda Field, who plays weather girl Montana on the show. You may recall Ayda Field from her stint on the Blue Collar variety TV show, but perhaps not (and if not, you’re luckier than I, because I actually watched some of that stuff). Tune in to Back to you on FOX on Wednesdays for more Ayda Field. She is, as the kids say, packin’ heat, especially in these promos for the show.

Well it had to happen, kids. Some one has finally managed to impregnate Jessica Alba and ruin her for men everywhere. People.com says that they have confirmed that Alba is indeed preggers with assistant director Cash Warren’s lovechild. The two met and started dating in 2004 when they both worked on the set of the Godawful “Fantastic Four” movie. I guess crappy moviemaking wasn’t enough to mire their smoldering love. Jessica Alba is 26, Warren is 28, and now stop what you’re doing and listen to men everywhere weep in disgust. No more Jessica Alba bikini pictures for a while, I reckon, so these will have to do for now…

One word: Holy crap, this is weird. What the hell were the Wachowski brothers (well, one brother and one sister, now, that one of them went and got his you-know-what snipped off in favor of a you-know-what) sniffing when they shot this thing? It looks like what they were probably intending: an animated movie made in live-action. But if they wanted to make an animated movie in the first place, why didn’t they just, um, do one? Why make it live-action/super-trippy-weird? Oh well, check out the trailer for yourself and judge. Go go Speed Racer go go?

Those wacky Japanese. You can always count on them to do something weird, whether it be the outlandish premises of their game shows, or what to do with their robots. In this case, robot battles! Well, actually, robot punching and kicking and whatnot. Nothing so far out like flying robots shooting photons at each other or anything, I’m guessing that’s still a few years ago. Knowing the Japanese, that’s exactly what they’re aiming for very shortly. Check out a couple of Japan’s “robot battles”. And yes, it’s all official and stuff.

Why more Sonya Kraus? Because when you find something good, why not get more of it? It’s simple math, isn’t it? Kind of like, “Wow, this cheese cake tastes really good, I gotta get me more!” Or if you’re a car guy, you can change cheese cake with, like, a car or something. Okay, maybe it doesn’t really work all that much with a car, but it does work with the cheese cake example. Right? Um, anyways, here’s more of Sonya Kraus, hailing from German TV, because as we all know, German TV rocks. (Even though I’ve never seen it, I’m sure it does rock.)

Our Random Foreign Babe of the Day is Gigi Ravelli, who hails from Laren, Noord-Holland, Netherlands, which makes her, er, a Netherman. Or is that Dutch? Yeah, I think Dutch sounds a lot more correct. In any case, she’s an actress, most famous for playing Lorena Gonzalez on the TV show “Goede tijden, slechte tijden”, which as we all know, translates into the English as “Good Times, Bad Times”. Which, incidentally, is also what my girlfriends call the time they’re with me and times we’ve broken up, except, er, in reverse order. Say what? Um, nevermind. Check out Gigi Ravelli.

Tennis babe Nicole Vaidisova is not Russian, but if she wanted to pretend to be one, I don’t think anyone would bat an eye. Check out the stats: tall, leggy, athletic, and blonde. And oh yeah, she can swing a mean racket. Basically, all the ingredients to pose as a Russian tennis star. Now I don’t know why she would ever end up posing as a Russian tennis player, but you know, in case the Czech Government came to her and asked her to pose as one to infiltrate a Russian spy syndicate or something like that — er, yeah, this is going nowhere. Anyways, more of Nicole Vaidisova. Please to enjoy.

Oh, Michael Vick. So talented, so elusive, so … FRAKKIN’ STUPID. Here’s Michael Vick’s train of thought: “Gee, since I make millions and millions throwing a little pigskin around and doing commercials, why don’t I dabble a little in dog fighting? Because, you know, that’s fun and whatnot.” You dumb ass moron. Michael Vick has gotten himself a 23-month sentence for dogfighting charges in a Virginia courtroom earlier this week. He’ll probably be able to make parole in half that time (if not less), but will the NFL take him back? Or more to the point, will anyone not living in Atlanta take him back?

Would it shock you if I told you that our Random Supermodel of the day Anastassija Makarenko is a Russian? It does? What, you didn’t get “Russian” when you saw the tall leggy body, the blonde hair, and that icy cold stare that is parts scary and parts hot? Or hey, how about the fact that she’s 5′11″, and we haven’t seen a 5′11″ blonde Goddess hailing from anywhere except — um, Russia? Or thereabouts. In any case, yes, Anastassija Makarenko is a Russian more known for her International work then her domestic portfolio. God willing, that will change soon, cause we sure would like to see more of her.

Our Latin Flavor for the day is model Barbara Herrera, who hails from Lima, Peru, where I’m told they make really good lima beans. Right? Well, that’s what I heard, anyway. I could be wrong, of course, and in fact I probably am, but what are you gonna do? Can’t be right all the time. Barbara has done work for Abercrombie & Fitch, Bloomingdales, Honora, Kohl’s, Macy’s, Nordstrom, and my personal favorite, modeling in my basement. Wait, did she really do that or was that one of my wacky fantasies? Either/or.

Love Mary Elizabeth Winstead. She’s a very talented young actress, with emphasis on young. The little lady is going to be around for a long time, and I love the fact that she’s been in a horror movie sequel (Final Destination 3) and something as wacky as Grindhouse, but she’s also done mainstream action like Live Free or Die Hard. And now she’s in the latest issue of FHM Magazine, and she looks damn fine in it, too. In that respect, Mary Elizabeth Winstead is kind of like Jessica Alba — gorgeous — but not like Jessica Alba — she can actually act. Yeah, I said it. What of it?

When you’re Heidi Klum, and you’re a supermodel from Germany making millions by wearing nothing or very little, then even when you get the giggles it’s hot. I mean, hell, when I get the giggles people always try to punch me, but you put a Victoria’s Secret model in her bra and panties and film her giggling and all of a sudden it’s hot as all get out. Is that fair, I ask you? Um, yup, what of it? See Heidi Klum giggle. (Okay, okay, so the fact that she’s wearing nothing but a sexy bra doesn’t hurt any. But I digress.)

I could be wrong by putting Vedrana Djorgevic in our Random Foreign Babe of the Day column, since I know nothing about her, and haven’t been able to find all that much, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say that yeah, I’m pretty sure she’s foreign. How can I be so sure? For one, if I can’t pronounce your name, much less spell it, then chances are you’re probably not American. And so, Vedrana Djorgevic belongs here, and if she doesn’t, well, whatever. Cute girl, even with the loud green color. Yuck, ugly, ugly color there, guys.

To be honest with you, I don’t know why it’s taken me this long to post Paulina Rubio in our Latin Flavor category. God knows I’ve been aware of the spicy Mexican singer for a long time now, but, you know, I’m going senile and whatnot. But hey, better late than never, right? Paulina is a Latin Grammy-nominated Mexican singer and actress, and she looks really, really good in red, as these pictures will attest. So what else about Paulina do you need to know? Well for one, she’s very fine, and for two, I think she was on the scene well before Shakira.

Tara Reid was somewhere doing something when she decided to go for a dip in the public swimming pool in her two-piece bikini. The picture of Tara about to get into the pool is a little disturbing; the girl is stick-thin, but curiously, the pictures of her inside the pool isn’t all bad. By the way, is Tara Reid even still a working actress? IMDB.com has her listed with four movies in 2007 and one movie in 2008, but I swear I haven’t heard about a single one of them. So maybe the free publicity from these bikini pictures will help Tara get some A-movies. One can only hope.

Thanks to the crappy writer’s strike, FOX’s Season 7 of 24 is on indefinite hiatus. Basically, the network doesn’t know if they can run the show’s seventh season all the way through the way they have been the last few years with the strike still going on and the season still haven’t finished shooting yet, so they’ve shelved the entire season until the strike is over. Which basically means it’s gonna take forever, and we might not even get a Season 7 at all. Anyways, the one good news (sort of) is that Kiefer Sutherland can now start doing his 48-day jail stint now so he won’t have to do it when the show does gear back up for production. If it ever does. Anyhoo, this is Kiefer Sutherland’s mugshot when he surrendered. Jack Bauer looks dapper, no?

The last time we posted something with our Brit Babe of the day Jodi Albert she was sharing the cover and pages of a Maxim magazine issue with fellow Hollyoaks babe Tiffany Mulheron (check that out here if you haven’t seen it yet). This time around, Jodi Albert is all by her little hot self, and I think you’ll agree that Jodi has plenty of, ahem, assets to make her the lone center of attention. Post-Hollyoaks, Jodi has gone on to the TV series Respectable, Casualty, and recently had a leading role in the 2007 movie Popcorn.

Our Random Foreign Babe of the day is French actress Mylene Jampanoi, who is half-Chinese/French, and one of the stars of the Indian epic Valley of Flowers, which is supposedly a grand adventure filled with action and sex appeal, much of the latter coming from the gorgeous Mylene Jampanoi. In fact, she’s such a babe that her co-star in the movie asked her to marry him after they finished shooting. Hey, can you blame him? Look at the girl. If she was anymore smoldering, the French police would have to classify her as a lethal weapon.
