(We’re back with another weekly installment of G.W.W.E [Guys We Want to Eff]. We have always been a fan of the underdog around here (maybe because we were always picked last…for everything), which is why we are going with Edward Norton this week. You may have found it hard to fall in love with him as an anti-Semitic skinhead in American History X, but we saw through the hate. Especially after watching him get all sweaty and angry in Fight Club.
He may not seem all tough and cool, but it’s that complexity that makes us totally wanna eff him.]
Ed Norton. Mmmm. There aren’t many 39 year old guys we wanna eff, but boy do we have (naughty) dreams about Ed Norton.
The star is as talented as he is sexy. He has played all sorts of roles, from a sociopath to a card shark to a quarky Priest in New York City. And no matter what kind of part he has, he pulls it off flawlessly…and makes us wanna jump into the screen and eff him. Yes, even in the church get-up.
Norton isn’t your typical sex symbol. He doesn’t have killer abs or really defined arms; he just has a sweet and kind demeanor that makes you wonder if you want to hug him or tear off his effing clothes.
Which is why we wil be first in line for tickets for his latest police flick, Pride and Glory. Guys in uniform are always sexy, and Ed Norton will be no exception.

[Celebrities get paid to look good and serve as a style guide to all us common folk, and part of looking good is flaunting their totally awesome fashion sense. Each week, I will be highlighting my Style Idol of the week: a celebrity who consistently shows keen fashion sense and whose closet I would raid in a heartbeat.
Of course, no celebs are immune to the occasional “what the hell were they thinking?” moment, but for the most part, these celebs look foxy and fabulous and inspire us all to do the same.]
My style idol this week is none other than Ms. Halle Berry, whom I think is one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood. You gotta admire the fact that she is 40 years old and a new mom, yet still manages to look phenomenal while playing at the park with her baby, or posing for photogs on the red carpet.
Berry’s got a classic style that puts emphasis on her sex symbol status (and really shows off those amazing…er… assets of hers) without looking trashy or “40 year old who’s trying to relive her 20′s.” With that gorgeous skin tone and megawatt smile, she can wear a variety of colors, which she is adept at. Her shapely legs and perfect cleavage only give her more room to experiment with different cuts and shapes, and her body always looks smokin’, whether making a political statement in jeans and a tee, donning a floor length gown while preggers, or rockin’ a mini dress.
There’s no doubt in my mind that Halle’s been one of Hollywood’s best dressed for years now, and it’s no wonder why: she’s the woman other women want to be, and the one that every guy wants to have on his arm. And on top of it all, she makes it all look so effortless. Read More »

Season 7 of Dancing with the Stars is underway with a plethora of “stars” whose dancing abilities are, well, not that hot. Granted, that is part of its entertainment factor, but I must say I was absolutely shocked at how un-sexy Kim Kardashian is — at least when she’s dancing.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Kimmy K, she’s like #1 on my girl crush list, but during her mambo routine last week with partner, Mark Ballas, Kimmy showed that even though baby’s got back, baby can’t shake it. For being the sex symbol she is, I’m surprised she can’t shake the ass that made her so famous.
I mean, when 62-year-old Susan Lucci generates more sex appeal in a dance than Kim Kardashian, something’s just not right. Personally, I’m pumped to see what happens on tonight’s episode. I hope Kim can redeem herself.

We all fall in love with the dorky character. Usually the Hollywood “dorks” are along the looks line of Adam Brody or Penn Badgley (who, FYI, is playing another nerdy persona as Dan Humphrey in Gossip Girl this fall).
If all the nerdy guys looked like that, you’d be hard pressed to find a dork without a leading lady.
Although the “unlikely” character always gets the girl in the movies, its usually not so in real life. And it’s these unlikely Hollywood celebs that have made an unlikely impression on the general public: people think they’re sexy.
Seth Rogen is the one on the list that is really a no-brainer. He was the chubby awkward pothead in Knocked Up that made Katherine Heigl, and America, love him. So of course he would make the Most Unlikely to Be Sexy list.
And if you saw him in Judd Apatow’s two other films, 40 year Old Virgin and Superbad, then you loved him before Knocked Up and you certainly love him after.
The other on the list is Tina Fey—smart, funny and HOT. Come to think of it, shouldn’t she be on the most likely sex symbol list?? Read More »
