So, I'm really disappointed that I missed the season premier of The Amazing Race -- but I DID get to see the kickoff of The Apprentice 5: There Can Be Only One Donald. So here are the male contestants -- in order of hot to not!

This one was pretty doe-eyed through his first run as a project manager, and I really wish they'd lay off the Mensa bullshit. There's still something about him though. We'll see how long it lasts...

Though our press passes got lost in the mail (4th year in a row!) we'll have champagne in one hand and chocolate truffles in the other as we watch the festivities of the Oscars tonight. Luckily the show airs pretty early on the west coast, so we'll still be able to get our beauty sleep in before work tomorrow.

We watched Crash last night, and I have to admit I think it's a little more "Oscar-Friendly" than Brokeback Mountain... so I think that there's a good chance it'll take Best Picture.

Well, time to pop some popcorn and get ready to see what sort of Red Carpet disasters walk by this year... Ryan Seacrest is doing E!'s red carpet, right? That should be good for a little good-hearted heckling from us. :)

5:25pm -- The guy sitting next to Matt Dillon just winked at us!
5:55pm -- Nicole Kidman's escort/seatwarmer is very pretty... not handsome, really pretty
6:10pm -- Bring Back Dolly... though it looks like that tough crowd wasn't showing her the love enough.

...and the award for hottest husband goes to... Ryan Phillipe! He can pout and brood at us anyday!

Have you noticed the new trend with Celebrities? Seems like every month or so we're getting word of some new scandalous video tape, photo, or sock-puppet show. Threats of legal action if the material is ever exposed... a web site popping up to sell the material... and inevitably everyone able to download it from torrent sites.


Celebrity citizens, I have a simple solution for you. Stop recording your super-intimate moments, or at least take better care of the evidence. If you're banging a playboy bunny and want to film it, that's cool man -- just throw the damn tape in the fireplace after you towel off!

Are you in a rock band and thinking of sending naked photos to a chick you're trying to impress? Stop!! Don't do it! There is no way this scenario ends without your naughty bits flying all over the web!

And don't get me started on the blonde socialite...

Steph & Alek are the creators of Oh La La Paris, an absolutely fantastic blog that I simply can't get enough of... plus they're as cute as a button! On any given day you might see a David Beckahm expose, a report from a remote tropical photo shoot, or a relevant news item.

When I started reading they had more personal life interspersed with the site, but even in its current incarnation it is a must-read!

On behalf of the internet, Thank-you Xtra-Pine! Thank-you for virual marketing videos that include a sexy guy taking his clothes off (for me) while CLEANING (for my partner.) And including wallpaper, as well as a downloadable version? You're tops in my book!

My friend Richard posted a photo of David today... and I had to see more of him. So I've decided to be a good netizen and blogger, and share the wealth.

Bret Harrison stars in the new FOX television series The Loop and my partner has been VERY excited for this show to air since he's such a huge fan of Bret. And you can see why! Bret is adorable and does a fantastic job in his new show. PLUS, so far we're 2-for-2 -- there have been two episodes and Bret has taken his shirt off in both. (A cookie for the first screencaps -- contact the webmaster or comment here!)

Bret previously played a reocurring character on Grounded For Life and has also recently been seen as Swerve on The OC. I also dig Mimi Rogers on the show... I think this will be a good one!

Amazing Racers Eric & Jeremy

Uber-straight (though some think they're faking... I'm buying it so far) contestants on The Amazing Race 9 Eric & Jeremy are Florida slackers that (appear to) have their sights set on a pair of busty blonde racers. Yet they also appear to enjoy posing in their underwear while alone at home.

They've got rockin' bodies -- but Eric is annoying as hell. I've seen a bunch of recappers say they want to rip those nipple rings right out. Though he was showing us the right way to wear speedos in 2006. Remember your resolutions, kids!

Thanks, Jaunted!

Sometimes folks have very complicated methods of choosing their teams for March Madness tournaments and contests at the office. My partner Doug had a more simplistic approach -- he saw hunky JJ Redick on television a few weeks ago and decided that JJ's team would be the one to go all the way.

Fortunately for Doug, JJ is a member of one of the #1 seeded team -- Duke!

Chris Daughtry

I have a little crush on American Idol's Chris Daughtry -- I know he's happily married (I'm very happy for him) but I want to make him a sandwich and bring him an ice cold Coca-Cola Classic (sponsor of American Idol) while he mows the lawn.

Sir Links-a-Lot led me to Chris Daughtry Central, where these photos (and more!) can be found.

Winning gold in the 1m springboard competition is Alexandre Despatie of Canada. At only 20 years old he's been an amazingly successful diver... and not too tough on the eyes, of course.

Thanks to Oh La La Paris for the tip!

I love hearing from the guests of Hunk du Jour -- pin our guest map and give a shout-out to me, the visitors, and THE WORLD! Your chance for world domination may start right here...


My apologies to our international guests -- I can't figure out how to get this map NON-US-centric...

I suggest pinning the map with only your zip/postal code or city. No need for that site to have your exact address.

Today Scott Madsen got a shout-out on the Feast of Fools podcast and (like I'm sure for many readers) it sent a flurry of memories back...

Sorry your latest show What I Like About You has gotten the axe (we TiVo'd the final episode... Doug's a fan) -- if you're looking for work, we're always on the lookout for a new personal chef! ...can you cook?

Y'all are totally digging the frappr guestmap -- and it's facinating to see that we've had a visitor from Kuala Lampur! Thanks for participating and keep 'em coming!

Now if you've got a microphone hooked up to your computer you can tell us what you think without even having to type (much)! Click on the Leave a Message link on the left and sound-off!

Don't forget you can also subscribe to our RSS Feed (what is that?) to keep up-to-date, or sign up for getting the blog via e-mail using the form in the left column.

Channing Tatum co-stars with Amanda Bynes in She's the Man -- currently in theaters. It's the next classic gender-bending high school sports fest, inspired by Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. Channing plays Amanda's love-interest and roommate, and like most Shakespearean comedies things get pretty wild.

Not any old person would willingly go and see chick flicks -- but I do it out of love. In this case, the chick flick happened to include a bunch of young fit actors and soccer players in various states of undress -- so I must command the masses to GO SEE THIS MOVIE! Seriously -- worth the small fortune that it takes to get into theaters these days... more pics after the jump.

Eddie McClintock seems to be rebounding from his failed sitcom starring Fred Savage -- he'll be appearing on Desperate Housewives as the boyfriend of Gabrielle's Baby-Mama.

In related news, after finding this photo on the internet, I've added Confessions of an American Bride to my list of movies to watch... or BUY.

I'm firmly in the camp who states "You can never have too much underwear!" -- and the next stop on our Window Shopping tour can be a nice site to make some selections at! The selections at Undergear go from cool and comfortable to the downright weird and tacky -- and their "fashion" partner International Male has some equally interesting outfits available too. (I'm not saying crocodile-skin boots and capes are terrible... they're just not my style.)

You can get lost on the site seeing all of the beautiful models posing and rubbing themselves semi-appropriately... which makes it a perfect addition to our Window Shopping series! They also have a print catalog that you can pick up at newstands for a buck or two... but why not just e-mail them and ask to get on their mailing list and feel the love every few weeks??

It's the end of March, so if you're a black & white photo'd hottie it means it's time to take your freakin' clothes off and party like it's Mid-August! ...or at least that's what the folks at Abercrombie & Fitch would have us believe. Don't forget to download some wallpaper!

A few more photos from their online gallery after the jump!
