It’s June 21 – and (hopefully) we all know what that means- the official first day of summer! Now that we’ve all been out of school for a while, most of us have settled into our warm weather routines. There are certain activities that are only acceptable in the summer months, and here are the ones I am looking forward to most…

If we’ve learned anything from this whole Tiger Woods debacle, it’s that some women simply can’t resist the glory of sleeping with a celebrity. And who can really blame them? You put Chase Crawford in front of me and there’s no telling what I would do in order to get him undressed and into my bed. And if it takes heavy drugs and a blindfold, so be it.

In fact, I can say that for a lot of celebrities. A girl can dream, can’t she?

But the fantasy doesn’t extend to all of Hollywood. There are a few celebs that I would rather not have anywhere in or around my lady parts. For example:

John Mayer:
This was a tough one for me because I’m a sucker for anyone who can serenade me – especially if it’s in a limo on the way to a Hollywood party – but there are a few other factors that I had to take into consideration. For example, let’s all say it together now: MAN-WHORE. John Mayer’s dating track record reads like a phonebook, and that’s simply not promising for our future together. And maybe I could look past that for a night of passion, but I simply cannot look past the faces he makes while on stage. If he looks like this while singing, I shutter to think what he looks like in bed.

Alex Rodriguez:
Because, really, is he that hot? I feel like I’ve been misled. I don’t know what everyone else sees, because very time I look at his picture, I just feel like there’s something not right there. And honestly, that damn Yankee has slept with every female in NYC. Plus, if the rumors are true and he and Kate Hudson are through, well he is just an idiot and I don’t mess with idiots.

Robert Pattinson:
I’d be seated on a throne of lies if I told you I wouldn’t happily fall into bed with Edward Cullen. But Robert Pattinson, on the other hand, just doesn’t do it for me. His greasy locks are always standing at great heights, which leads me to believe he showers less than twice a week. And I’d like to take him to a tanning bed, just once or twice, to give him a little glow. Or skin pigment at all. He’s nearly translucent at this point and pasty isn’t a good look on him.

Chris Brown:
R.I.P. Chris Brown’s sex life. Assault pretty much put the nail in the coffin of that guy’s life. It’s too bad, too. I used to imagine what our wedding would be like. He was going to sing “With You” to me at the reception, now I just want to punch him in the genitals.

Justin Bieber:
My best guess says that this 15-year-old pop star is still holding on to his precious V-card. And as awesome as it would to take a celebrity’s virginity, I’m not into statutory rape. I’m not that fame-hungry.

I’m definitely from the “book is better than the movie” school, especially when it comes to Harry Potter. (They leave so much out!) But there is one reason why I keep shelling out $10 to watch the film adaptation of my favorite books of all time: the hotties.

But, which actor from the Harry Potter movies is the hottest?

The most popular choice seems to be Daniel Radcliffe, who plays The Boy Who Lived himself, but there have been many babes walking the halls of Hogwarts since The Sorcerer’s Stone was released in 2001. And most of those have been highly overlooked.

Who is your favorite? I’m partial to the new guy who plays Cormac McLaggen in the sixth movie (which is why I’ll be at a midnight showing on Wednesday…and then subsequent repeat viewings after that); he’s so hot it hurts! Hermione Granger Emma Watson is the luckiest girl in Hollywood.

With all the sequels, prequels, and long-anticipated epics slated for release, there will be no shortage of box office smashes. But even more important is that these movies are a good source of your daily recommended leading man! Here are some of this summer’s hunkiest blockbuster hunks:

Hugh Jackman, X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Role: Logan, a.k.a. Wolverine
Why He’s Hot: Not only does he wear a tight-fitting wife beater throughout the film, accentuating his muscular physique and tough Wolverine persona, but he gets nekkid, too!

Chris Pine, Star Trek


Role: Captain James T. Kirk
Why He’s Hot: Do I even need to answer that question?! The man with the gorgeous baby blues plays a young Captain Kirk, a reckless and devilishly handsome miscreant who eventually comes into his own as the captain of the USS Enterprise. Oh, yeah – and he gets nekkid!

Christian Bale, Terminator Salvation and Public Enemies


Roles: John Connor (Terminator) and Melvin Purvis (Public Enemies)
Why He’s Hot: We lucky ladies get a twofer this summer! Bale stars as the good guy (relatively speaking) in both films, first as the leader of the human resistance against the machines in post-apocalyptic 2018, and later as a top FBI agent on the hunt for notorious criminals. He may be heaven-sent either way, but he’s going to burn up the screens this summer!

Johnny Depp, Public Enemies


Role: John Dillinger
Why He’s Hot: As we saw in Sweeney Todd two years ago, Depp has no problem playing the bad guy and looking sexy while doing it. As the Depression-era bank robber, he can hold us up any time he wants!

Shia LaBeouf, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

Role: Sam Witwicky
Why He’s Hot: He won our hearts as the dorky yet loveable Sam in the first Transformers movie. After two long years of waiting, a second dose of Shia is the only prescription to cure our craving for more.

Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Tom Felton, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince


Roles: Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Draco Malfoy
Why They’re Hot: We watched these boys grow into men over the past eight years, and now we can say that they are certified H-O-T (without looking like dirty old ladies). As the heroic Harry, his endearing friend Ron, and their adversary Draco, this trio will surely cause fans to swelter in theaters worldwide.

Brad Pitt, Inglorious Basterds


Role: Lt. Aldo Raine
Why He’s Hot: Not much is sexy about Jewish-American soldiers brutalizing and scalping Nazis during WWII, but Brad Pitt can take the role of a commander and make you wish he were your superior.

Bring on the summer blockbusters!

Still, as we get closer by leaps and bounds (only hours away!) to the Summer 2008 Olympics, I guess I am kind of excited. I’m sure I’m not as psyched as lots of die hard sports fans who will be watching the Games like a hawk. But I am looking forward to seeing that torch lit. Just…not for reasons that I think resonate with the majority of Olympics viewers.

Love Those Losers: My grandmother and I started the tradition about ten years ago of watching the Olympics and rooting for the country with the least chance of winning. I’ve always had a thing for underdogs; I don’t know if it’s because they’re so utterly pathetic (really, you should watch just to see their, “Well, I saw that coming,” expressions when they fail horrendously) or because of how awesome it is when the team no one thought would even place gets the gold. Either way, I’ll be keeping a semi-close eye on the teams that the rest of the viewers and participants could care less about. (But I won’t be making any bets. I always lose those.)

Summer Olympics are HOT: I know you know it. Gawker knows it. We know it. This summer there is a delicious smorgasbord across several of the sports, and I do not just mean the competitive spirit. Two of my favorites are USA softball girl Jennie Finch and Australian diving boy Matthew Mitcham. Too bad I’m pretty certain Finch is straight and I know for certain that Mitcham is gay, so I’ve got no chance with either of them. Still, I can gawk and unfairly root for them.

Ride ‘Em, Cowboys (and cowgirls): Okay, so there’s no western equestrian events at the Olympics; it’s all just eventing (don’t worry if you have no idea what I just said). But I have to say, I’m kind of a sucker for the Equestrian events. I love horses. I love dressage (even though it’s hard as hell; let me tell you, I would have never thought that riding a horse around would be SO hard). I’ve had the fever ever since my girl got me into horses, and I don’t want an antidote. What? You don’t understand? Watch Anky Van Grusen from the WEG 2006 Freestyle Final. Even if you know nothing about horses aside from the fact that they are big and they eat as much as they crap, you’ll see just how awesome this is. It will change your LIFE.

Okay, That’s Enough: As excited (which, all things considered, isn’t that much) as I am about the Olympics, really, I’m getting a little tired of hearing about them. The news nowadays is either that they just found out Obama won’t pledge allegiance or, oh no, China’s polluted! Really, I’m sick of it. Yes, China has just as many, if not more, problems than good ol’ USA, and hopefully the Olympics being there will jar it into bettering itself. Yes, people have every right to be upset about the Tibet’s suppression. But can’t we just let the Olympics do what they are going to do and then figure out how to fix this afterwards?

The point I’m making, ladies and gents, is this: love them or hate them, excited, angered, or indifferent, the Olympics are here.
