That’s what TMZ.com is saying, that this whole thing is strictly domestic. Husband and wife argued about a third wheel–rumored to be Rachel Uchitel. Those lacerations on his face and head? All from Mrs. Woods–and her little golf club. Well, someone else in the family knows how to swing one…as The First Church of Tiger Woods as well as TMZ.com can also testify.

Tiger Woods did not suffer facial lacerations from a car accident. They were inflicted by his wife, Elin Nordegren — according to a conversation Woods had Friday after the accident.

Tiger has yet to be formally interviewed by the Florida Highway Patrol — that should happen this afternoon. But we’re told Tiger had a conversation Friday — with a non-law enforcement type — detailing what went down before his Escalade hit a fire hydrant.

We’re told he said his wife had confronted him about reports that he was seeing another woman. The argument got heated and, according to our source, she scratched his face up. We’re told it was then Woods beat a hasty retreat for his SUV — but according to our source, Woods says his wife followed behind with a golf club. As Tiger drove away, she struck the vehicle several times with the club.

We’re told Woods became “distracted,” thought the vehicle was stopped, and looked to see what had happened. At that point the SUV hit the fire hydrant and then hit a tree.

We’re also told Woods had said during the conversation Friday he had been taking prescription pain medication for an injury, which could explain why he seemed somewhat out of it at the time.

Well, how have the mighty fallen. Here I was thinking that him focusing on his wife’s pregnancies was slowing up his game. It’s not that; it’s bouncing several blonde babes who nearly resemble each other at the same time that’s been screwing up his “A game.”

This is something even his deceased cheating Creole daddy won’t be able to fix.

What an idiot. Is that all it comes down to? Nooky on demand? He’s got everything, so what does he want now? The ruin of his career? Joining these other sad souls on the covers of People and National Enquirer full of money and power and unhappiness? It’ll fall away, Tiger. Everything will fall away if you don’t recognize this opportunity for what it is. Stop. Fcking. Around. Divorce Elin, remarry or stay single. Or try something else to do other than golf.

Other white golfers have tended to keep their creeping under wraps or on page 14 of the sports page. Or they’ve stuck with the same woman through creeping, children, moving around, and financial reverses. But not you, Tiger. There were already strong rumors before this happened that you were creeping. See, you’re a rock star. When people heard about the accident, it was like a thunderclap heard around the world. Nobody, except perhaps Obama, will get this kind of attention and concern. Even if you are losing on the course, you still have that rock star mantle. It’s a blessing, but now, it’s a curse. People won’t come to see you or buy your endorsed products if you keep on this way. Lorne Rubenstein of Canada’s The Globe and Mail says we’re all waiting for some answers.

Woods has the support of many sponsors, who pay him untold millions. They want to be associated with the 33-year-old winner of 14 major championships not only because he is a brilliant golfer – perhaps the best in history – but because of his image. They along with golf fans will want to know exactly what happened early yesterday morning in the darkness of the exclusive Isleworth community when Woods pulled away from his mansion.

The sponsors that will want to know – or one would think they would, and need to – include, among others, Nike, Upper Deck, Accenture, TAG Heuer, EA Sports, Golf Digest, Netjet, Gatorade, and Gillette. Meanwhile, Kim Montes, a spokesman for the Florida Highway Patrol told The Associated Press that police plan to ask Woods “everything.” First reports said nothing about that having happened, the explanation being that Woods was being treated for his injuries.

One thing is certain: PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem and the sponsors of every tournament in which Woods plays, must have nearly collapsed with worry when the accident was reported. He moves the dial like no other golfer, ever.

Woods was one of only two golfers ranked in the top 50 in the world who played in that recent Australian Masters, and some 25,000 spectators followed him every round. The Hong Kong Open on the same week had 12 players ranked in the top 50. Telecasts of the tournament showed very few people at the tournament.

My advice: Man up. Admit that you are having marital problems, then go into counseling with your wife. Decide whether to keep her and the children, or let her go with enough money to live the rest of her life in peace. It doesn’t work to have a family and to continue being a playa when you’re on tour. In between, be with your little boy and little girl. That’s your living legacy. Find or reject religion or find comfort in family or friends who’ll tell you the truth, not what you want to hear. Get back to the basic reason why you love golf and what it does for you, and then spread that love around to your wife, children and other family members. Open up your life, Tiger. And above all, step on, but on a different path. Let this episode fade away for your sake. Don’t turn this into a donnybrook that every major gossip media outlet will rush to talk about to your detriment, and have folks shaking their heads. It’s up to you.

My word, I sure am getting a lot of mileage out of Friday the 13th: A New Beginning, a movie that always gets a bad rap (not least from me!). But it’s an entertaining entry in the slasher saga nonetheless—in an inept, groan-inducing sort of way.

Yo, dude! Ever hear of knocking?

What passes for a story is riddled with idiotic elements, including a grotesque backwoods mother and her semi-retarded son, an apathetic drifter who’s the most useless red herring ever committed to celluloid, and some seriously lackadaisical counselors. The major gripe for most fans, though, is undoubtedly the lack of Jason. After suffering the fabled “machete slide” at the end of part four, the real deal spends part five in his grave while an impersonator does the dirty work. (Actually, the misinformed mayor remarks that Jason was cremated, but six subsequent sequels would indicate that he’s a tad misinformed.) If you ask me, however, the fraudulent fruitcake is the least of part five’s problems.

If you're not the real Jason, please raise your hand.

Jason is an icon. His hockey mask is one of the most potent images in horror history. Even wet blankets who wouldn’t be caught dead actually watching a Friday flick, instantly recognize the mask. It’s narrative shorthand for death, carnage and epic fail camping trips. Add grubby coveralls and a bloody machete to the equation, and you’ve got an indelible presence to match that of Lugosi’s Dracula or Karloff’s Monster. Of course, only a moron would argue that Jason’s bloodbaths could ever hold a candle to the Universal classics, but there’s something to be said for his level of pop culture notoriety. When you consider that six men have so far played the masked, adult Jason, you begin to realize the potency of the imagery—with the right accoutrements and body language, any big guy can be Jason Voorhees, homicidal mama’s boy.

A mask in the mud.

From People magazine, by way of Fangoria #69 (1987):

“When I put on Jason’s clothes, I felt strange, like I had lived other lives. How I got the part is beyond me, because I really did not belong in Jason’s shoes. I am absolutely not a scary person.”

– Richard Wieand

See? Even the actor who played the phony, despite his reservations, could feel the power of the costume. So what if the real Jason was taking a dirt nap? SPOILER WARNING: Vengeful paramedic Roy dispatches his victims in the spirit of the genuine article, and that’s good enough for me. I even like the new, unscathed mask with the blue diamonds—as you may remember, Jason’s mask has red diamonds and a slit above the left temple.

Impostor Jason, I salute you!

There's gonna be a sequel!!

The Lohan family’s media appetite is almost at Gosselin-like levels, and all of their attention is LOL-riffic!

First things first, the Ungaro/Lindsay fashion chronicles continue. There has been a lot of “he-said-she-said” with regards to Lohan’s job security at Ungaro. You’d think this would be a no-brainer for the HR department, what with the half naked models their celebutant consultant sent down the runway only months ago. According to People Magazine, though, the label’s President and Chief Executive, Mounir Moufarrige, contends that Lindsay still “has a job to do.” Oh goodie, I can’t wait for round two! We’ll have to wait till next season to see what kind of horrific mess Lohan cooks up for the fashion house.

I know it’s Thanksgiving, but it must be a really slow news day for celebrity journalists. People Magazine’s lead online story details exactly how the Lohans will be spending the holiday. Dina makes sure nothing goes up in smoke and the eldest daughter comes home for the feast–big deal. Who cares? Doesn’t sound like anything special to me! You can read all the (not so) juicy details here. While you’re on the website, perhaps you can leave some constructive criticism for the reporters working this week.

I saved the best for last: check out these hilarious photos of the Lohans helping the hungry! Perez is right on–totally a publicity stunt. And what’s more, I didn’t even recognize little Lohan with that God-awful hair cut–what was she thinking?!

Ugh. Again?

Seriously?

I feel like PEOPLE magazine has six white men on rotation that they give this honor to year after year no matter how old they get or what fine piece of work they may or may not have recently completed.  The sexiest man alive?! should never be some dude who rocks sterling silver rings on every finger like some sort of aspiring gypsy, or who’s part of the small minority still trying to convince a majority that donning a porkpie hat everyday is ok, or who, even when out of character, falls into an accent so slight (and, mind you, unnatural) – like he’s taking a cue from Madonna’s How-To-Hypnotize book – that no one can ever really pinpoint its origin (dude, you’re from Kentucky, and that shit is not Southern).

And, he so looks like the type to stroke his chin hair. I dunno. Maybe he could be the sexiest man alive…you saw…at camp…that one time.

Plus, I heard he prefers reading to Twittering. I’m gonna need my all-encompassing sex stallion to be part of this century, thank you.

I demand a recount.

*told you.

Even though, it is my personal opinion that Rob got the short end of the stick on his new umm… title via People Magazine.  In this month’s special issue, you can read that he was awarded in The Vampire Awards with “Best Hair” in the “Sexist Man Alive” publication.

Better luck next time, Rob, hmm?  You don’t need no stinkin’ magazine to let you know you’re sexy!  HA!  Like you even care, right?! LOL

Right, so LT has raised the stakes somewhat with her choice of Gavin… not bad, LT, not bad. So it’s time to haul out the big guns and speaking of big guns, my choice this week is Hugh Jackman. He is Wolverine. And for some reason, we all think Wolverine is not only the most awesome of the X-Men, but also the hottest of all the super-hero characters out there.

People Magazine voted him the sexiest man alive in 2008 and I’m not going to argue with People… they’re always accurate. His only drawback is that he is Australian but then no-one’s perfect…

If you’re a country fan, listen up. People.com is offering a free download of 10 country songs from iTunes. Click here to check it out. It features …. people I’ve never heard of because I’m fairly ignorant about what gets played on country radio.

As an aside, in case you were wondering, I don’t always post things that I personally recommend. Rather, I try to include stuff that I think my readers – you! – might be interested in. So, unless I gush over something – this usually involves baked goods or cute clothes – don’t assume I’m giving my endorsement.

Everybody is not in a recession.  Some are still spending really good money.  What do you think of this story?

Newlyweds Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom have bought their first home together, a multimillion-dollar pad!

People.com reports that the 25-year-old reality TV star and the 30-year-old Los Angeles Lakers player bought a seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom home in a gated community in Tarzana, Calif. Their new digs came with a $4 million price tag, according to People.

Why do I have to be wrong for you to be right?

I’ll tell you why.  At our core, we are all judgers.  That’s judgers, judgers, judgers.

From the first moment we see someone — whether in person, in a photo, or in a Youtube video — we dissect their looks, voice, dress and actions, and in a matter of seconds, decide whether they are worthy of our time.

It’s a wonder we have any friends at all.

Now, obviously, there are some people who pass our test. The men featured in the 2009 Sexiest Man Alive issue of People magazine were judged exceptionally attractive by a national panel of editors.  There has also been an obsessive frenzy surrounding the stars of the “Twilight” movie franchise. Those actors have been judged worthy of their fans’ time, attention and somewhat scary mania.

But probably most fascinating to me is how quick people are to judge other people who like something that they don’t.

The “Twilight” movies are a great example. The fans of this franchise have been practically demonized by those who haven’t read the books or seen the movies.  The Comments page of this week’s New York magazine was brutal.  One reader said of the Twilight moms: “Their poor children, and their poor husbands! I wish they’d get some perspective and see how sad they really look.”

Wow.  There’s some judging going on there.

Why can’t people just be different?  Or think differently?  Or, god forbid, like different things?

Why do they have to be inherently wrong?

We say ‘live and let live,’ but as a society, we don’t practice what we preach.  What we really mean to say is,  ‘let me live the way I want, and you live my way, too…’cause if you live or think differently or enjoy different things, that’s wrong.’

Now, “Twilight” isn’t the most important issue in the world — believe me, I know.  But it’s also not the most deadly, god-awful, dangerous book ever written.  Teenage girls and their families are exposed to more controversial things on episodes of “Gossip Girl” — can you say three-way? — so I find it interesting that people are trash-talking a very old-fashioned romance with vampires.

If you don’t like the series, that’s fine.  That’s your choice. But other people liking it isn’t wrong…it’s simply their choice.

So, stop your judging.  That’s right.  I’m looking at you.  Judger.

That’s judger, judger, judger.

Ram Charan Tej launched the latest issue of PEOPLE, featuring him on the cover, at Landmark Bookstore, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad today. Following unveiling, Charan interacted with the media and talked about his interview with PEOPLE.

Speaking at the press meet Ram Charan Tej said, “I used to read People’s magazine when I was in USA. I am very happy to know that it has launched the Indian version. People has the history of 70 years. People magazine never sports gossips and speculative news. It always carried authentic news and interviews that are real. I am thrilled to be on the cover page of People’s south special.”

In his PEOPLE interview, south india’s hottest young star opens up about the record-breaking success of his second filmMagadheera and living up to him formidable legacy as superstar-politician Chiranjeevi’s son. The London-educated star says, “I was nervous when I realised that my father’s fans were expecting a lot from me.”

But after Magadheera performance, Charan says, “My dad walked up to me and gave a tight hug.” The actor, who possesses his father’s innate dancing abilities, reveals that he was ‘never a trainer dancer’ and offers a glimpse of his life off-screen. “I always enjoyed going to coffee shots and accompanying mymother and sisters shopping but I can’t do it anymore,” he says.

Charan’s superstar dad also gushes about his son’s achievements. “Charan has inherited a lot of my qualities. I feel hard work and dedications are his greatest assets. For me and for my family, he is a doting and responsible son.” Says Chiranjeevi.

There must be something horribly wrong with me because Johnny Depp has always left me cold.  Sure, if he snuck into my bedroom begging for some lovin’, I wouldn’t tell him to take a hike.  But here he is, People’s Sexiest Man Alive again and I’m like, “whatev.”

I never agree with People’s choices around beauty and sexiness.  Boring Pierce Brosnan?  Frat Boy Affleck?  Two-time Sexiest winner Brad Pitt’s another hunk about whom I’ve always been lukewarm.  I was down with former Sexiest Men Denzel and Clooney, and still consider JFK, Jr. one of the sexiest men to have ever walked the planet.  But the rest of People’s choices…yawn.

So what better thing to do on a cold Sunday afternoon than sit around deciding who the sexiest men in the world are.  Here’s my list. 

Edward Norton – He’s scrawny and has a receding chin, but Edward deserves the clichéd “best actor of his generation” title.  Ol’ Ed must have something in the sexiness department considering he scored babes Rosario Dawson in 25^th Hour and Salma Hayek in real life.  Anyone who can make a neo-Nazi hot definitely deserves to be on some list.

Barack Obama – Nobel Prize winner.  Devoted family man.  Coolest American president who ever lived.  Obama is the epitome of sexiness.  Now, if he can just pass health care.

David Letterman – Yep.  Dave.  In high school, I had a major crush on him.  He doesn’t offer much in the looks department but the dry, quirky, somewhat mean-spirited wit adds more to his appeal than a pretty face ever could.  Plus, you can see in the way he flirts with female guests and fawns over Julia Roberts’ mouth that there’s a love monster within the geek’s body.  This latest scandal only proves my point.

Javier Bardem – I saw him a couple times in Madrid and he came off as one of those “serious” actors who think smelling bad is a sign of artistic depth.  Seems he doesn’t bathe.  Still, Javier’s intensity is the stuff of dirty dreams.  His fights with Penelope Cruz in Vicky Cristina Barcelona made you believe co-dependent, mind-fucking romances are the way to go.  Even with that weird Coen brothers haircut in No Country for Old Men, Javier’s the bee’s knees.

This Guy Who Rides My Bus – I really need to get over my attraction to tattooed, messily gorgeous meatheads who chain smoke and work in sandwich shops.  The one who rides my bus every morning was recently reading a Dummies guide on raising ferrets.  Upgrade, Laura, upgrade.    

Ewan McGregor – He wears makeup and skirts, sings in musicals and shows his butt all the time in films.  Ewan is the cute, wacky class clown who just happens to be easy on the peepers.  While his sexier peers have fallen off the cultural radar (Jude Law anyone?) Ewan keeps showing up and giving his all in decent flicks.  He ought to instruct his friend Jude on the finer points of career longevity and how not to shag nannies. 

Djimon Hounsou – Remember how great Janet Jackson looked in her black-and-white music video, “Love Will Never Do Without You?”  I don’t because I was too busy staring at Djimon Hounsou.  He’s one of those lucky bastards who gets to look incredible and have talent.  Only a god like Djimon could distract anyone from the sexy powder keg also known as Leo DiCaprio, but he did it in Blood Diamond.  Then he had to ruin it and marry that Kimora Simmons witch.  What a loss…

Lenny Kravitz – When I lived in New York, a friend of a friend was subletting an apartment in Soho.  Lenny Kravitz supposedly lived across the street.  For a time, five of my girlfriends and I were seriously considering taking on several jobs and living in the cramped place together just to see Lenny walk by the window in his Calvins.  Though he hasn’t made an interesting album in a decade and his lyrics are kinda dumb (“my mama said that your life is a gift/my mama said there’s much weight you will lift”), not much more comes to mind when looking at that face than sex. 

Don Draper – A handsome as hell, emotionally remote, psychologically tortured cad who can’t keep it in his pants?  What a dreamboat!  I refuse to read articles about or watch interviews of Jon Hamm, the actor who plays him, because I have a feeling he’s actually a likeable and even shy person.  I prefer scumbags like Draper.

Freddie Ljungberg – He’s a Swedish football player.  He did ads for Calvin Klein underwear.  If there’s any confusion as to why he’s the sexiest man alive, please refer to the southern portion of the aforementioned ad.

Let me say it once and for all, I’m a huge fan of Glee. Me and the Mrs. follow it religiously, I have a handful of their songs on my iPod, I wait for the day when Finn and Rachel can be together and Quinn and Puck love each other and Mr. Schuster finds out his wife’s not really pregnant and…I’m a fan. But when I saw a preview of People magazine’s photoshoot with Glee cast members for their sexiest men issue, I had an UH OH moment.

Can we get a retake, please?

First of all, who ever thought any of these kids was sexy? OK, maybe Mark Salling (Puck, right) but only because he’s the bad boy who didn’t have a shirt on in one episode. Even so, the photo above does not convey sexiness, and is, frankly, an epic fail at capturing anything flattering of any of them.

Question. Did Cory Monteith (Finn, left) just wake up?! I’m gonna blame this horrendous photo on the photographer and not on the threesome that appears to have been gambling all night only to be caught by a pesky papparazzo in the wee hours of the morning.

If a picture like this qualifies one as sexy, then I’ll be winning People’s highest honor: Sexiest Man of the Year.

Hugh Jackman has passed the Sexiest Man Alive crown to Johnny Depp, who has claimed the title from America’s People magazine for a second time.

“At 46, Johnny Depp, the father of two still reigns as Hollywood’s most irresistible iconoclast; as one-of-a-kind as his beloved 15-year-old boots and as smouldering as his favourite Cuban cigars,” the magazine said on its website.

Depp caught People’s attention not so much for his swashbuckling antics in the Pirates franchise or his freakish charm in Edward Scissorhands, but his softer side as a family man.

The slightly built actor who often sports a wispy goatee beard and floppy hair beat out 33-year-old actor Ryan Reynolds, who starred in The Proposal, and Jake Gyllenhaal of Brokeback Mountain.

Depp also won the magazine’s Sexiest honour in 2003, making him, George Clooney and Brad Pitt the only three male stars to win the title twice.

I would like to point out that this is the third year in a row that Matthew McConnaughy hasn’t won the title.

How can any competition be taken seriously that allows this injustice to happen? 3 TIMES!

I have been yelling at the People website ever since in my own particular angry patois – an unapologetic stream of abuse far more creative than any Marine drill instructor or master rapper.

Yours, while speaking the vernacular of human bitterness and agony

Righteous

p.s. Warning: The style of this blog is almost pure irony, and will offend many readers, although in no sense is it exaggerated. Then again, that depends on what your definition of exaggeration is.

People magazine heeft zijn jaarlijkse ‘wie is het meest sexy lijst’ weer bekend gemaakt. Heel mannelijk hollywood en de muziekscène werd gekeurd, met 15 gelukkige winnaars:

1. Johnny Depp

2. Ryan Reynolds

3. Jake Gyllenhaal

4. Bradley Cooper

5. Robert Downey JR.

6. David Beckham

7. Gilles Marini

8. The Glee Guys

9. Nick Cannon

10. Adam Lambert

11. John Cho

12. Chris Daughtry

13. Jerry O’Connell

14. John Legend

15. Robert Pattinson

Echt verrassend is het resultaat niet, hoewel nummer 1 toch niet vanzelfsprekend is. Johnny Depp zit immers al jaren in het vak, is getrouwd en heeft kinderen. Opvallend is dat de meesten van de lijst reeds gesetteld zijn. Zo hebben we meneer Mariah Carey en meneer Scarlett Johanson. Geen bereikbare singles dus dit jaar. Behalve over Robert Pattinson kunnen de jonge meisjes nog wat dromen. Deze vampier staat trouwens vanboven aan mijn persoonlijke top 3. Als tweede Gilles Marini, de sex and the city ster. En David Beckham krijgt mijn derde plaatst. Maar wie ben ik natuurlijk …

Oh really!?, en serio no se quien este a cargo de hacer los conteos en la revista People, porque año con año eligen a los candidatos menos pensados, por ejemplo Matt Damon ocupo el lugar de honor y este se lo dieron a Jhonny Deep… claro el tipo es un gran actor y muchas mujeres estan tras de el, pero no entiendo porque esa mania de buscar al mas sexy solo en estados unidos, digo en el resto del mundo no hay mas hombres que se lo merezcan, la cereza en el pastel es esa fotografia espantosa de la portada, fue lo mejor que pudieron hacer??!! EPIC FAIL!

Josh Groban was nominated for the People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive contest. Video can be viewed here. The lyrics are really very good- they’re not the usual vague words we hear in his songs, like the lyrics for February Song. It’s nice to read (and later on, hear) something ordinary from him, made extraordinary by his voice.

I DON’T GET IT
BUT I’LL TAKE IT

(Sung with extreme
country twang)

Sometimes just
like all of us
It’s hard for me to see

The compliments
that others are so
kind to give to me

Cause growing
up a nerdy guy
Geek chic to
say the least

It’s kinda cool that
I’ll be looked at like
a piece of meat

I don’t get it
but I’ll take it
Mom always says
I’m handsome
and now PEOPLE
think so, too

And if you’re
reading this
and wondering,
Could this all
happen to me?

Just remember
that it’s sexy
to be looked at
differently

Oooh, I don’t get it . . .
but I sure
as hell will take it

There has been much speculation over the past week in regards to the future of the Oprah Show on cable. According to the HuffingtonPost, Winfrey plans to announce the final date for her show during a live broadcast on Friday, Harpo Productions Inc. said, bringing an end to what has been television’s top-rated talk show for more than two decades, airing in 145 countries worldwide and watched by an estimated 42 million viewers a week in the U.S. alone.

Oprah Winfrey’s 24th season opened earlier this year with extreme success. She was able to draw in more than 20,000 fans to Chicago’s Magnificent Mile on Michigan Avenue for a block party with the Black Eyed Peas. She followed up with a series of blockbuster interviews – Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield, exclusives with singer Whitney Houston and ESPN’s Erin Andrews, and just this week, former Alaska governor, GOP vice presidential candidate and best-selling author Sarah Palin.

Friends and Associates have reacted to the announcement: Martha Stewart has stated, “She’ll do another show, she’s evolving. She’s fabulous.” Ellen Degeneres has stated “Hey listen, I’m going to tell you some news you’re going to hear as soon as you go out into the world, when you leave here. Right before I came out here, I got a call from Oprah and she told me that she is announcing that next year will be her last year. It will be her 25th year, and she feels like it’s time for her to stop.”

Putting her own career into perspective, DeGeneres, 51, went on to say, “I don’t think I could be here without her. I think she has blazed a trail … She is an amazing woman.”

In terms of Winfrey’s legacy, “She will always be the Queen of Daytime Television,” said Ellen, “and she also said she is leaving me all of her money. I was like, thanks Oprah, thank you.”

People Magazine has reported, Winfrey, 55, whose current program reaches about 7 million viewers a day, is preparing to start her own cable channel. And while it has been widely rumored that she would bring her program to OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network, a joint venture with Discovery Communications, on Friday’s Today show, during a news report on Winfrey’s impact on TV, it was said that there will be no Oprah show once she pulls the plug on the current program.

Johnny Depp, People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” this year. For the second time he won the title, he got it first last 2003 and wins again this year 2009. Same as Johnny Depp, the other two-time winners for this title were Brad Pitt (1995 and 2000) and George Clooney (1997 and 2006).

So, I finally got around to choosing a new theme for my blog, and redesigning a new header to suit it as well. I’m not entirely happy with it yet, the booger-green color accents are leaving me a little MEH. But all in all, I think I can deal with it.

Of course, redecorating/housekeeping entails a much-needed blogwarming party. Thankfully, my boys came to celebrate the new digs with me.

You’re welcome, ladies.

RDJ, you know I love you.

Oh hello! Stop smiling at me that way Mr. Ryan Reynolds.

Mr. Schuester (and fellow Gleeks)! You had me at 'Golddigger'! :">

*All photos taken from People’s list of Sexiest Men Alive. Thank you, People Magazine for bringing us this list every year. <3

people magazine just released its sexiest men of 2009 and guess who graced the list? that’s right, the guys of glee (well cory monteith, mark salling and matthew morrison to be exact). you won’t get an argument here! sexy is right. <3.

ps. i see a lot of uproar has already been caused by gleeks who think kevin mchale (artie) should have been included. i am in complete agreeance!

There is so much more to a man being “sexy” then the way he looks. A truly sexy man has more layers and more qualities other then being gorgeous. Some of them all they have to do it open their mouth and sexy leaves the room!! Not sure why People Magazine has such a bad track record on the Sexiest Man Alive issue.. They have only been right twice so far as long as they have been doing it.
Johnny Depp has been chosen this year to make him one of three that have been chosen twice… Now the question is… WHY WHY WHY were the other two chosen twice before Johnny? Are they basically oblivious? I mean I really like George Clooney.. he’s great, Brad Pitt.. yeah.. very nice… But JOHNNY is the WHOLE package.. totally.. He is a sweet, humble, talented, gracious, loving, family man, smart, AND funny. And to top it all off.. ain’t too bad to look at either which is just a cherry on top..

To a “few” of us.. Johnny has been #1 for a very very long time.. and doesn’t appear that it is going to change…. ever…

Just one girls opinion…… hahaha!!!
