What Definition of "Hot" Are We Using?

And this is the guy that somehow made it as the #7 in People Magazine's 10 Hottest Bachelors of '09 list??

#1 Douchebag, yes. Hot Bachelor? No. If Brody Jenner, pictured above whoring for publicity after lunch at The Ivy (a place where publicity whores go because the food is mediocre at best) on Thursday, gets you all hot in the drawz, I question your sanity.

Who the hell put together that list anyway?? In case you didn't read about it on the blogosphere 3 days ago, it reads as follows:

#1. Chace Crawford. That confused and slightly angry look you probably have on your face right now is not dissimilar to the one he often has on his face every Monday on Gossip Girl. Or you might have a blank stare on your face because you don't know who he is, much less why he is number one on this list. Don't worry, he wears that look too. See, you know so much about him already!

#2. Chris Pine. I fully support this decision. I mean, Captain Kirk revamped could get it any day. Though he lost mayjah points with that dirty little Audrina Partridge stint. I'm just sayin'!

#3. Shia LaBeouf. I have loved Shia since Even Stevens, and I don't care if he has watched his parents have sex and would bang his mom. True love is bigger than incest, am i right???

#4. Adam Lambert. ::Blank Stare:: maybe if I had watched American Idol I would understand this choice. But in my meaningless opinion, Adam Lambert is not a sex symbol. Interesting? Yes. Androgynous? Very. Hottest Bachelor of '09? I even consulted my resident trannies (BUS: Bottoms United of Shadyside) on this one, and the answer was a resounding NO.

#5. Ryan Eggold and Kellan Lutz. Maybe I need to watch more TV. I don't get it.

#6. Dwayne Johnson. The wrestler actor formerly known as "The Rock". The brahma bull should always be on this list.

#7. Brody Jenner. You already know how I feel about this.

#8. Common. This. Is. Random. But I'll take it. The man is fine.

#9. Taylor Kitsch. Again, maybe I need to watch more TV.

#10. Rob Pattinson. Ouch. Last place. Much to the chagrin of Twihards around the world who are probably sharpening their pitchforks to murder both Chace Crawford and the person who put together this list.

But come on People, seriously, I know we could have done better than this. Overall, this list was disappointing. And random. What about Ryan Leslie? Adrian Grenier? Columbus Short? That Brody Jenner sh!t is just downright unacceptable.

Who would you have put on the list??

Love Happens...

... just not to Jennifer Aniston. Well, at least not for very long, anyway.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not mocking her situation. After all, how many of us out there can relate to that??

But here we are, watching a trailer for yet another romantic comedy type of movie where Aniston plays the same character she always plays-- slightly neurotic thirty-something woman meets man with lots of issues and they fall in love. Happily Ever After, The End.

This is not art imitating life.



No, I'm not mocking Jennifer Aniston, she is mocking us. Her own (very public) personal life is a living testament to the cruel ironies of the fact that the women she plays in her many, many rom-coms never really get such happy endings.

Thank you Hollywood, for putting together another completely unrealistic depiction of love that will lead us to believe that one day when we meet that absolutely fabulous man who is only passing through town, we will fall in love with him and he with us and then he'll change his whole life around (or your whole life around) so that we can be together and live happily ever after. Oh, and thank you for then getting the most romantically hopeless woman in Hollywood to play that girl so that we can all weep at the realities of our own, pathetic romance-less existences.

Love Happens? No, love doesn't happen. Sh!t happens.

And then I blog about it.

So I Met This Guy, Right...

It was all really rather random. We went to a party and I met him through a friend. The conversation lasted between us for no longer than 10 minutes. When he left, he gave me his number so that we could all hang out again. Nothing magical, nothing special, no hidden agendas...

One week later and I'm sitting in his loft, surrounded by his paintings, guitars, and a heap of healthy food, struggling to keep my feelings on a tight leash.

He's sweet, he's funny, he's incredibly caring, he's ruggedly handsome... And he's terribly dangerous. Dangerous, because while his mouth is promising you nothing (he said he wants to be blasé about this), his embrace, his kiss, his gaze... they're giving you everything.

Achieving certain levels of comfort and intimacy with someone who's (relatively) a complete stranger and who you know will disappear from your life soon is, quite frankly, frightening. We have such an amazing time together, but I know we also happen to be going nowhere, fast. So I'm trying hard to bind and gag my inner princess, who's love of fairytales landed her head over feet for Chicago Guy. That didn't end well. And I know that if I don't show that stupid little girl with the ribbons and the daisy chains who's boss, this won't either...

On the less depressing side of things, I can definitely see that while we may not have a romantic future (sadly), this is more than likely the beginning of a beautiful friendship. And for that, at least, I am grateful.

Jimmy Choo x H&M ...?

Ummmm....???

I guess H&M is bringing out the big guns now that TopShop has moseyed onto the American scene. But still, Jimmy Choo? I thought the entire point of pricing their stuff at approximately one arm and 3/4 of a leg was to maintain exclusivity and an elite nature of the brand?

Whatever, I guess during times of economic recession, anything goes...

Anyway, in case you want to stunt in some Choos, you may want to know that the collection will include men’s styles as well as handbags and accessories available in 200 stores around the world.

So I Was Perusing the Blogosphere...

...And I noticed that yesterday, Lupe Fiasco's single, "Shining Down", feat. Matthew Santos was *gasp* LEAKED onto the innanets! Of course, that made Mr. Fiasco throw a Kanye-worthy b!tch fit and embark upon a "take my sh!t down now!" crusade against the hip-hop bloggers posting the track--particularly, against his very own fan site, the LupE.N.D. blog.

Said Lupe:

"I DONT LEAK MY OWN RECORDS!!! I'M NOT A FAN OF LEAKING RECORDS OR OF DOWNLOADING!!! My entire first album leaked and possibly cost me from going platinum my first time out as the final estimates of how many people actually downloaded that album illegally was well over half a million. So how do u think i feel that everytime i come to this site where my "fans" are i see you putting up links to download my records???...I dont care about the other sites. I care about where my real fans are supposed to be active. If you come across it and you like it and keep it to yourself thats all cool with me but to make it where as other people are able to download it in a public forum is honestly an insult to me. Especially because of how much i love you guys. that shit is kinda like a slap in the face."

::blank stare::

Love is letting your fans download your leaked tracks and not being a douche bag about it.

What tickles me the most about the situation, is that hours later, guess which blog posted Lupe's leaked track?? Kanye UniverseCity.

@definitely_nah says is better than I ever could:

Quote of the Day

"I have a strange parallel with movies I was doing and my life off screen. First, it was The Good Girl...which evolved into Rumor Has It, followed by Derailed. Then there was The Breakup. Followed by the lighter side, Friends With Money. If anyone has a movie called Everlasting Love With an Adult Stable Man, that would be great! I'm at table six, and my agents are at table 12."
