Remember the days when John Stamos was best known for his mullet role on Full House instead of Glee? When Leonardo DiCaprio was the teen heart throb from Titanic instead of the guy who stared in the freaky dream movie? When Brad was still with Jen and and George Clooney was the hottie on ER?

I do…vaguely.

A lot has changed since our early years. Preteens today are swooning over the Jonas Brothers and Justin Bieber rather than Leo and co. But just because these heartthrobs are no longer teens, doesn’t mean they’re any less hot. Or any less worthy of our swooning.

So, for your viewing pleasure I’ve put together a gallery of the ten actors that have aged oh so well, with evidence of their hotness both then, and now.

Get ready to drool in 5, 4, 3, 2….

Have you seen those ads? You know, those Match.com ads? The ones where some HOT guy is “video chatting” right on your screen? If you frequent MySpace, I’m sure you’ve seen them.

Every time one of those redonkulous video ads pops up on my browser, I want to punch whoever made them in the face. Because those guys aren’t on Match.com. Those guys have never needed an online dating site to help them find a chick (or a dude, as the case may be). Those guys are hot. Those guys have fantastic smiles. Those guys are actors.

According to this little article, the success rate of the online dating industry is 22%. Of course, the ads for EHarmony and Match.com don’t want you to know that. They want you to think hot, happy people are all over their websites. They want you to pay money to find these hot, happy people with fantastic smiles.

But I gotta say, after doing my own (ahem) research, I have found the amount of hot guys on dating sites to be alarmingly low. There’s certainly no body building Brad Pitt lookalike hoping to video chat with me. There’s someone who wants to chat about how it’s cool to be a nerd or make vegan cupcakes, but sadly, this someone cannot hold a candle to those dudes in the video ads.

What do you think? Is internet dating really as easy / successful as people say? Or is it just false advertising?

Only a few days until the Academy Awards my dear friends!

I think I happen to be one of the only people who is genuinely excited, maybe a bit more excited than the actors.

Is this strange? I don’t know, if you don’t think sitting on your couch judging “practically perfect people” as they sob, sashay down crimson carpet in their designer best, and fake happiness for the other actors when they steal their award, then….you don’t know what fun is.

When the Oscars are on, I am in for the night. The only thing that would make it better would be if I had my own Wolfgang Puck to dust gold onto little Oscar shaped chocolates.

On a serious note: I am beyond impressed with the actors/actresses nominated this year.

Receiving an Academy Award is one of the highest honors an actor can receive, so when someone is recognized for something they have worked years for, for an art they love, and for a performance that included blood, sweat and tears….witnessing their gratification and that piece of history is pretty emotional.

Though I love the fashion, the speeches are my favorite. Hearing their gratitiude and excitement makes them HUMAN. How can anyone forget Halle Berrys emotional acceptance speech? Or when history was made when Sidney Poitier was the first African American to win Best Actor. Those moments are historical. Read More »
