Ringing Out The Old Year With Kai Z Feng

What better way to end 2011 (and good riddance) than with some lovely portraits from Kai Z Feng,  the (un)official lead photographer of all that is young, hip,  British, and beautiful? Starting above you'll find, under all that fur, the patented pout of Jake Cooper(white).

At The Movies

I went and saw War Horse today, which is a very old fashioned movie. It reminded me of Black Beauty mixed with All's Quiet on the Western Front. I'm sure that some will be put off by its earnestness, its lack of irony, its sentimentality, and its unabashed audience manipulation, but I must admit that I wept through large portions of it.  Those who are cooler than I will no doubt be howling with indignation when it receives multiple Oscar nominations (while I consider any serious contemplation of the Academy Awards as more than a pop culture sideshow to be a sign of immaturity).  Well, so be it, but I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy the film immensely.

Plus, it didn't hurt that I got to look at this:

 

And this:

Life is short. You have to enjoy the small pleasures while you can.

Birth Daze

Thank the gods that today is Ross Lynch's 16th birthday, because I have a self-imposed age limit on this blog, and I don't think I could have held out much longer.  I had never heard of Ross until the premiere of Austin & Ally,  his new musical/comedy show on The Disney Channel last month, and even though the show is just more of the same goofball-antics-that-don't-occur-on-Earth-as-we-know-it, like everything else on that channel,  Ross is, quite simply, adorable. I'm not saying that he has demonstrated great acting ability, but that could come. Before The Mouse snapped him up, he played in a band called R5 with other members of his family, including his brother Riker, who Gleeks will recognize as a Dalton Warbler.  YouTube videos of R5 reveal that Ross is quite a competent pop singer, even without the Disney production gloss, so, as much as I hate to make the comparison, Disney may have finally found their own Bieber.  Time will tell.

The Trouble With Breton

The trouble with unimonikered models like Breton is that it's hard to google them. I know a few things about Breton, how tall he is, for example (six feet), and that he was once a professional skier, but that's about all.  I do think he's rather lovely, though, with his big, blue eyes, and lean, sinewy physique. In other words, he seems like a groovy boy.  I'd like to strap him on sometime.

 

My Christmas Present To Me

I have been writing this entry for  ages now, pages and pages, and I just threw it all out in service of the truism that a picture is worth a thousand words.  Here's what I got myself for Christmas.

The Fantasy Art of Oliver Frey

If you don't know who Oliver Frey (a.k.a. Zack) is, you need to know.  I have been a fan of him for a very long time, and I was thrilled to learn that some of his explicit gay erotic art is now available as high quality books.  Also, an overview of his mainstream commercial artwork (not explicit, but imaginative, fun, and sexy), most of which first appeared in British gaming magazines, is available in a beautiful, lush volume by Mr. Frey's partner, Roger Kean.  In my earlier attempt to convey how much I love Oliver Frey's work, I failed,  so I've decided that you just have to see it for yourself to understand. Therefore, I am showing you just a few of his images below (NSFW, some of them) , and links to his websites.  You really should check this out,  I know you won't regret it.

I May Have To DVR This

This little promo for MTV's New Year's Eve show sounds promising.  Co-host Tyler "Teen Wolf" Posey pretty much promises that he will be shirtless, which sure sounds good to me.

Just in case you forgot,  here is what Tyler looks like when he is shirtless. 

Workin' It!

Those who know me know that, not unlike that bitch Janet Weiss, I don't like a man with too many muscles. However, there's something about this blond bodybuilder that strikes a chord.

Latest Model

Haven't seen much of this guy, and don't know much about him, except his name is Pedro Muller, and he is from Brazil.  And you know, they only make beautiful boys in Brazil. He seems so cool and aloof in these photos.  I wonder if he heats up in real life.
