Model Of The Year!

Just a few days ago Lucky Blue Smith was busy having his wisdom teeth removed.  

Today he has been crowned by Models. com, the online authority on all things modeling, as Male Model of the Year, winning both the Industry poll and the Reader's Choice poll.  Not surprisingly, he also won both polls for Male Social Media Star. So how does it feel, Lucky Blue?

Joel McCrae and Dolores Del Rio in "Bird of Paradise" (1932)

Among the many pleasures to be found at Poseidon's Underworld is a look at the history of men wearing sarongs in movies.  See it here.

After becoming the Olympic champion in men's figure skating at Sochi, the rest of Yuzuru Hanyu's 2014 was a bit chaotic. I won't go into it all here, but it was scary bad. He has more than made up for it in 2015.  Two weeks ago at the NKH Trophy he smashed the existing scoring records for short program, free skate, and overall competition, and not by a little, by a lot. This past weekend he went to the Grand Prix finales in Barcelona and broke two of those records.  Not a bad way to celebrate his 21st birthday.

Models Are The New Porn Stars: Lucky Blue Edition

Let's get this out of the way: Lucky Blue is still only seventeen years old,  and this is definitely not porn. Still, if you compare these photos from a recent shoot for Paper Magazine with your typical photo set from a Eurotwink porn site, there's not much difference, is there? In fact, one might be excused for thinking that these are, in some ways, even more sexed up than the average porn set, or at least the pictures at the beginning where the boys still have some of their clothes on.
