Hump Day it is!!!

Since it is the Hump Day before Thanksgiving, it is just right to give Thanks where it's due -

so, here goes a few:

Thanks NBC for bringing Dracula back on the screen...  and of course, casting Jonathan Rhys Meyers as the Hypnotic Count..  Perfect Sexy!!!

Thanks Tom Daley for making us feel the Summer Heat, in any season!!!

Thanks to Arena Homme magazine for Having Becks grace us with his Coolness/Hotness

on their Fall/Winter issue.

And Finally, Thanks the Powers That Be behind The Vampire Diaries...  Possibly the most Good Looking cast on TV - even the Guest Stars are Hot!!!

Most Especially, Ian Somerhalder, of course!!  

Am sure you will agree, one look from hom and you are weak in the knees!!

And if you get tired of his smoldering eyes... You can always stare at his smoking bod!!! 

getting an early start to HUMP DAY!

Loooong night babysitting Juju...  I literally just finished showering and just drinking my herbal tea, unwinding a bit, before heading off to bed....  So I decided, I might as well be productive and get a (No Pun Here!) HEAD START on today's HUMP DAY post...  as there will be something for everyone here....   LOL...

Let me start with new CRUSH, British Swimmer & 2012 Olympic Medalist, Tom Daley - looking quite sexy on this photo that recently ran in UK's HEAT publication....  this boy is really being hyped everywhere - deservedly so - and am sure everyone, myself included, are quite HAPPY over this...  and could only wish for more....

Last nite, I also watched Nicholas Spark's The Notebook - for the not-too-sure-but-quite-plenty of times.... Ryan Gosling - what can one say? Talents and Looks all in one package.... This guy should really get an OSCAR already..... he can do it all - ACTION, ROMANTIC, COMEDY, and of course, DRAMA... needless to mention, HUNK DU JOUR!!!

Then there's Zac Efron slow dancing with the luminous Nicole Kidman in just his tightly whities....   and I better mention, they are very wet whiteys - as the scene from the upcoming movie The Paperboy - was all filmed in the rain...

...and then there is this shot of two of Taiwan's current HOTTIE IDOLS with LIPS LOCKING as they promote their current film, Fierce Wife, is trending hotly in Taiwan Yahoo....  one of them is Hot Actor/Model Chris Wang - whom I happened upon the other night on the street....  alas, he was with a girl so I did not want to intrude and ask for a photo snap....  the other guy's name escaped me right now, but he is also a popular Actor/Model...

and last but not the least, current fave Taiwanese Actor (who is also half British) Rhydian Vaughan - sleeping slumberly... 

and on that note - I bid you all GOOD MORNIGHT!!!   HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!

Vampire Diaries: Season 3

Just got through watching the last 5 episodes of last season's Vampire Diaries.... Finally!!!
===========================

Have mixed emotions over this... I do not mind that it was not as flashy as 2nd Season's Finale... And am even relishing the fact that Damon did see Elena before Stefan.. Surprising twist am happy with... And to be rid of Klaus (finally! Was sooooo tired of his idle threats...) - though i see he is now possessing Tyler's body... So he is not dead and can come back again...

Other things am not so happy about:

-give Caroline something else to do besides being tortured every sooo episodes... Was even excited with the possibility that Klaus will take her and show her around, per his invitation... ( and yes for this, I was willing to still welcome his stay... LOL)..

-what's the used of giving Tyler extra ordinary powers if he does not even get to use them....

-Bonnie should just get back with Jeremy and that's that!!!

-is Matt really dead? If so, this is Sad... Though they do not give him much to do, he is still pretty to look at.. :)

-i did not see Rebecca die , so I do hope she is not dead yet... She is fun whenever she is around and being bratty...
=================

At this time, I read that the cast are back for Season 4 already... I wish that Elena will really be a Vampire already... And that Rececca and her will get into a biiiiig cat/ vampiric fight... Throw in Caroline for Great measure.... :)

Hollywood Invades Pinoy Clothing Market

Seems like an All Star War with Hollywood Stars as Soldiers, is going on in the Pinoy Clothing Retail World... More and more faces have been appearing in giant billboards for some

Of The Philippines' Top Clothing Brand... Here's the latest...

========

Leading the pack is Penshoppe with their All Star Line up: Gossip Girl's Ed Westwick & Leighton Meister, Zac Effron, & Ian Somerhalder...

Above two (Zac & Leighton) are current window displays for most Penshoppe Boutiques.

Ian compelling all to shop with those beautiful eyes of his...

================================

and for BENCH....  Joe Jonas and Vampire Diaries' Michael Trevino....   plus the latest on their rostes, The Hunger Games' Liam Hemsworth.

Did not know how big Joe Jonas is in The Philippines till I saw his giant billboards all over...

he is even a cover story for one of the nation's Men's Magazine - GARAGE.

Too bad for the new city ordinance: "NO UNDIES on BILLBOARDS" - The Vampire Diaries' Michael Trevino's  sexy underwear ads will not be able to cause traffic jams on the freeway...  everyone's lost....

For now, am sharing what I have seen so far... :)

The Penshoppe All Stars Roster So Far!

Henry Cavill is Superman!!!

First Ryan Reynolds is Green Lantern, then Chris Evans as Captain America, now comes news from The Tudors Site on Facebook that Henry Cavill, Brandon on The Tudors, will be donning the blue suit and red cape as SUPERMAN!!! Just read this today really!!! Just Too Cool, as he is my FAVE in The Tudors actually... I mean Jonathan who plays Henry is cool and hunky, too - but what a personality... but that's another story... Anyway, a cover story on Entertainment Weekly plus the INTERNET all abuzz about this casting coup... He follows the the great George Reeves, Christopher Reeve & the last one, Brandon Routh...

From what I hear he actually beat out a couple of people I really like, as well, for the role -- Matthew Goode (who's donned Superhero Tight suit in WATCHMEN, for the same director who will be lensing this installment of Superman); and Ian Somerhalder, who is HOT Damon of The Vampire Diaries. Either one of them would have sufficed for my TASTE =, too... but i think, Henry, will fill the suit much better... and if you have seen him in The Tudors, you would agree that he could bring much more depth to the role... So here's to the New Superman!!!

sink your TEETH into THESE SHOWS!!!

The last few weeks I was once again getting caught up on all the TV shows am missing on.... this time out, ac ouple of the VAMPIRE series that are heating up the internet and the boob tubes all over the world: "Vampire Diaries" & "True blood" - both about modern day vampires that, in the tradition of Twilight - breaks all the rules and myth of what we were told to believe in from previous movies and novels, say Dracula or even, The Vampire Chronicles....

Let me start with the one I prefer more, The Vampire Diaries"... not only because Ian Somerhalder is one of the three lead cast, though certainly enough reason, but because it has more of the elements I love about my vampire shows... the drama & humour that I loved with Buffy, The Vampire Slayer; the hip and moderness of Gossip Girl (albeit they suck not blood but everything else... LOL); and the mystery and suspense of what one needs to hold the audience for an hour each week... plus to keep me coming back for more.... and did I say, Ian Somerhalder is one of the leads -already a favorite of mine since his Felicity & Lost years... in the show, a la the Vampire Lestat - he is neither good, nor bad... he is wicked but he cares and he loves.... tormented by passion & obsession, Ian definitely stands out of the pack in his role here.... and not to say less of the other casts, too many hunks running around this show, Alive, Dead or Undead...

Now, am not saying that I do not like the other show, "True Blood" - I do like it as well... and being on HBO, the show can get bloddier, racier and more adult oriented... and that it does it job well, really well.... not an episode goes by without flesh flashing on the screen... one of the main characters in the heat of passion... and just plain old Sex, Sex and more Sex.... if Sex really sells, then they do sell alot here... and it is SOLD by every single HOT CAST member... leads... supporting... guests...

Oscar Winning Actress Anna Paquin, from The Piano & X-Men fame leads the large casts... most of them unknown to me, or most of us for that matter - until now.... from what I gather, most everyone in the show is a household name already.... for me, no one could be sexier in the show than the Aussie born, Ryan Kwanten - who plays Sookie's hunky, hot blooded, sex fiend, not much up there, older brother......

Hottie Ryan Kwanten
