Better late than never, eh? Hey, it’s still Friday where I am.

Not suprisingly, our Brit Jamie Bamber won the “towel-only” round against Eddie Cibrian. 

This round, I don’t have a towel photo, but I’ve got a shirtless one.  I do it because I love you. Really.

Our next contestant is best known for his work as the nerdy/ultimately jerky boyfriend on Ugly Betty, but when his shirt came off, da-yum.  If that’s what they all look like underneath, give me a nerd any day of the week!

VERSUS

LL Cool J is on his way up to the Celebrity Dad Hall of Fame, which I must say, is way cooler than being raptured.  Seriously.

Today I’ve got two new contestants for you to ogle vote upon.

Ahem.

If you missed the awesomeness that was the new Battlestar Galactica (just ignore that last episode) then Jamie Bamber is someone you probably won’t recognize.  He’s English, though, and did such a convincing American accent that I nearly fell out of my chair when I heard him talking in an interview.  And looky, no shirt! My, how did that happen?

Our next actor is someone you probably are familiar with, although to be honest, I can’t remember the names of any of the shows he was on.  But, the man definitely works out.  Eddie Cibrian made a bit of a splash when he left his wife to marry LeAnn Rimes, and as far as I know, that’s what he’s most famous for to date.

VERSUS

LL’s abs of steel need just one more victory to send him upwards into the CDF Hall of Fame.

Will this contender be the one to end his streak?

He is sort of known as being “Mr. Mariah Carey” but damn if he isn’t a cutie. He and his wife recently welcomed twins into their family. I will remain mute as to the choice of names. Hey, look at how well he wears a suit!

VERSUS

Dave Grohl really surprised me.  I thought he would be left in the dust, but he managed to garner a fairly amazing 47% of the vote.  I guess you guys are digging the scruffy-sexy look.  Me?  I can’t stand scruff.  I think the only man that can get away with it is Hugh Jackman, and that is just barely.

Today’s challenger comes to you from our favorite commonwealth, Puerto Rico.  He is a huge Latino popstar, but I’m sorry to say I hadn’t heard of him until I stumbled across his picture.  And what a lovely picture it is, no?

VERSUS

Oh man, that was a close one.  Brandon Flowers and LL Cool J were pretty much neck and neck for the entire week, and then somehow, LL managed to eke out a couple more votes to make him the victor.  But by a pretty tiny margin.  Sorry Brandon!  LL and his abs live to see another poll.

Today I’ve got another man of rock.  He began with some inconsequential group called Nirvana, and is currently the frontman for the Foo Fighters.  I loathe Nirvana and love the Foo Fighters, so go figure. 

VERSUS

To paraphrase class factotum, no, there really wasn’t a contest.  The man who I will always call LL Cool J no matter what he may call himself, crushed David Arquette like a small, inconsequential twig.  I think possibly one person voted for Mr. Arquette, but I really do hope that he and Courteney can work it out.

Today I’ve got another musician, albeit one who is completely different in every way, from build to beats.  He’s the frontman for the indie-ish band The Killers, and my is he purty.

VERSUS

That whoosh you are hearing?  That is Robert Downey Jr., ascending bodily up into the Celebrity Dad Hall of Fame.  Have fun, Robert!

So today marks the exciting part of CDF for me when I have to hunt down not one, but two celebrity dads I haven’t yet included.  I’m thinking soon, though, that I will have exhausted the list and will have to start somewhere close to the beginning, just with different dad combinations.  Or, maybe a series of Hall of Fame battles?  Who knows, it will probably depend on how much tea I’ve had to drink that day.

Our first contender is someone I’ve always considered to be way sex-ay, and it is truly a travesty that I have not featured him yet.  I was going to feature him with clothes, and then I thought, why would I deprive you ladies of the pleasure of this man without a shirt?  Only a vindictive harridan would do that, and I’m only vindictive every other Friday. Today is your lucky day!

The second contestant is one current recovering alcoholic with a more-famous estranged wife.

VERSUS

There was no saving Ferris, unfortunately.  Danke schon to the 15% who voted for him, though.  Just pretend I put those two dots above the O there.

Robert Downey Jr. only needs to win one more, I think, before he finds himself in the Hall of Fame.  Hmmm, who shall I pit against him this time?
