Celebrity Dad Faceoff

Friday, May 16th, 2008

The ante.

It must be upped.

Bourdain got his butt kicked, losing with only thirty percent of the vote.

So, I bring to you a man who has played both a half-elf and a Russian gangster. And who looked good doing both.

Gentlemen, if you please…

Nicole Kidman is seven months pregnant!

I have to confess that I was bigger at four months than she is at seven.

As it turns out, Denzel was able to deliver quite the drubbing to Mr. CSI, or Jag, or whatever show Mark Harmon is currently starring in. Denzel garnered almost sixty percent of the vote, leaving Mr. Harmon to languish with a mere forty-two percent.

And once again, my friends, I have slogged through seemingly gazillions of sometimes painful Google image pages, searching for someone who just might have the chops to win over the esteemed Mr. Washington.

And while raincoaster and the ever superfantastic Phyllis had some great suggestions, (I will utilize them, never fear!) I sort of went my own way this week. I admit to having somewhat of a crush on this next contender, even though he isn’t necessarily conventionally handsome. But, as we all know, conventionally handsome does not always translate into hot, and ladies, we’re all about the hot over here.

Forget about questionable teen photos, this week’s big shocker is that Hugh Jackman actually lost last week’s Faceoff. Unable to pull out his sixth win, he lost by exactly one percent according to my handy dandy poll calculator thingy.

But hey, he can feel better knowing that he lost to Denzel Washington, who, I have to admit, is mighty fine.

So this week, in keeping with the hot older dad theme I seem to have going, I have someone I feel is an extremely interesting challenger.

Let’s rumble….

Monday Teeny Poll

Last week’s poll asking about the rising cost of inflation and how it affects your budget had two-thirds of respondents saying there was some sort negative impact. Wow, let’s hope that the Fed doesn’t cut interest rates this week, shall we?

Doing my usual “this poll has absolutely nothing to do with the last poll” type of thing, I’d like to talk about fathers for a minute. Kevin Costner recently fathered a child at age 52. Larry King was 66 when he had a son with his sixth wife, and then another a year later. Charlie Chaplain was 73, and Tony Randall was 77 when his last child was born.

Barring medical intervention, there is an age when carrying a child is no longer an option for a woman. Not so with men, who can father a child very late in life.

Dear Hugh Jackman Fan Club,

So far, you have enabled Mr. Jackman an unprecedented fifth win over Matthew Fox, who is certainly no slouch in the looks department. Not to mention Patrick Dempsey, Jason Bateman, Will Smith, and Daniel Craig, who also went down in flames.

Therefore, I have decided to throw some really big guns at you, just to see exactly what you are made of. Will you crumple in the face of the awesomeness that is this week’s challenger, or will you triumph yet again?

Only time will tell, my friends.

Let the showdown begin…

Chant it with me now, “Three-peat, three-peat, three-peat!”  Let’s congratulate Hugh Jackman for winning three CDF’s in a row, quite a feat if you look at his competition

Apparently I raised the bar just a bit too high with Mr. Wolverine, but hey, who wants to look at just semi-good looking guys?  It’s an inexact science, really, but I figured it was wiser to err on the side of having really good looking men rather than so-so ones.  I can’t hear you, but I know you are agreeing with me.

I still can’t hear you, but now I have a feeling you are saying, “Enough with the jibber-jabber, Glinda, on with this week’s contestants!”

Hugh Jackman, rowr! vs. Dr. McDreamy, I could use some mouth-to-mouth resuscitation! Stat!

And I’m not sure why it is that so many Hollywood men refuse to shave for these premieres.

Whoo-hoo, it’s Friday!   Time yet again for the one thing that keeps you hanging on to your sanity until the weekend, Celebrity Dad Faceoff! 

The big shocker this week is that Hugh Jackman won out over Will Smith by more than forty percent of the vote.  Poor Will Smith, maybe he is seen more of as a cutie, rather than a hottie.

Anyhoo, because I lurve you all so much and you have shown yourselves in the comments to to be such a depraved bunch, I’m giving you some extra special bonus pics. Never say that Glinda doesn’t provide the beefcake when asked. 

This week I thought I’d throw in a blondie since all of the men have so far been tall, dark, and handsomes.

Let’s get down to business!

Hugh Jackman, rowr! vs .Daniel Craig, yowza!

And also for your consideration:

Yeah, baby! vs. Beach Bond Boy

Is anyone else feeling a bit faint, what with all the cheekbones and chiseled bits?


Obama trawls Craigslist for kids!

Obama, Baby Onesie

In a shocking revelation that should rock the Democratic horserace to its very core, New York media scene blog Gawker (who seem to be baiting me lately with all the kid stuff) reveals that person or persons unknown have been posting on Craigslist, looking for a few multi-culti children to connect with the Obama campaign, having apparently run out of minors who will associate with him of their own free will. And that’s not the worst of it: No pay!

Shock! Horror! What does Hillary have to say about this?

Help Obama get elected/Need parent with small child


Reply to: gigs-621146478@craigslist.org
Date: 2008-03-27, 5:17PM PDTWant to help Obama get elected? Looking for parents with a small child to be in a commercial. African American, caucasian, asian, hispanic, anyone and everyone. Will only take a little bit of your time and it’s a huge way to help Obama’s effort for equality in this country.

Guess these people wouldn’t take his calls:

KidsForObama

AndTheOtherKidsForObamaSite

I can certainly understand why he wouldn’t want to use his own children.
