Rihanna

The uber-babe from the Barbados. The R&B pop princess. The glam-rock style icon. The dusky fashion jewel. What more is there to say? In fact, not much at all, since I've just said it all. So let the pictures paint a thousand more words, if need be. I'm happy just to gaze and fantasize ... and replay. "Drive, she said," and I'm happy to take the wheel.

Here's the rest of her, in all her curvaceous, doey-eyed beauty, the one-and-only, Robyn Rihanna (pronounced Ree-yah-na) Fenty:

I love the black and white pic of her with the ripped jeans, I love the curved body with the blinds in the background, and I love the pic with the succulent behind her. But my favourite favourite is the one above with the toothpick in the mouth, the blonde fringe, and that cum-hither-but-you-can't-none look. That just gets my motor runnin'!

So it seems Robyn likes the odd piercing

Susan Coffey

May 20th 2010 04:22

I love the mélange of glamour and fashion on an art bent, innocence and knowing, playing coy with mischievousness. Young American model Susan Coffey has it in spades. She’s the darling of the lens, the wardrobe mistress, every big model’s elusive envy. Damn she photographs well!

Susan Coffey is a 20-year-old student, and part-time model, although she aspires to modeling full-time, and I’m pretty sure she’ll be ubiquitous soon enough. She lives in Metuchen, New Jersey. It is her visage that is her calling card, those bewitchingly beautiful green eyes, and that fiery red hair (although she scrubs up gloriously as a blonde bombshell!).

It’s that New York sensibility that exudes through much of her modeling work that appeals so much to me; the girl next door, who just happens to be an angel with dirty wings. I’d love to see her in movies, although the track record for models that turn to acting and actually make it big is not that great. But hey, I’d be happy with a few indie appearances. I just wanna hear her sexy New Jersey drawl.

In the short time she’s been modeling she’s got an impressive portfolio, huge, in fact. I’ve selected my favourites, the ones that capture the most artistic aesthetic, or ones that show off those striking features so well. Mind you, it must be said, she’s got a very svelte figure that looks great in a black brassiere and black stockings!

Here she is, the fashion world’s newest modeling sensation: Susan Coffey!

Pretty young thing, ain't she? My arty favourite's are the autumn leaf, crossing the street, and on the subway train. My other favourites are the blonde in black underwear, the come hither in the bath, and the black and white striped top with the headlights on. This is one Big Apple girl I'd love to take a bite of.

Debate Battle! BRAD PITT vs. GEORGE CLOONEY

April 16th 2010 04:54

That’s right! It’s the battle of the matinee idol! Well, the modern version, that is. Two buddies fighting for top position as the most attractive man in Hollywood. Both have been voted Sexiest Man Alive by People magazine twice; Brad in 1995 and again in 2000, George in 1997 and again in 2006.

So whose face do you find the most appealing? Who wears the threads best? It was very hard trying to find a decent pic of George with his shirt off; on the other hand it was easy finding one of Brad bearing his six-pack. I wonder if he still sports one.

There’s only two years between the two lads; Brad was born in Oklahoma, December 18, 1963 (a Sagittarian, like my good self). George was born in Kentucky, May 6, 1961.

But enough of the chitty-chat, let’s get down to brass tacks. Which gentleman possesses the most pulchritude (physical attraction, to be precise)? Let the battle begin!

pop babes

December 7th 2009 03:21

My earliest memory of lusting after a pop babe came in the form of Luv', a manufactured trio from the Netherlands, that had a couple of disco hits, namely Trojan Horse. That crush didn’t last long, then along came Dale Bozzio from Los Angeles new wave outfit Missing Persons (Lady Ga Ga, hello?) and their one-hit wonder Destination Unknown. After buying the 12" single to Sex (I'm a ...) by Berlin, another new wave group of the City of Angels, I fell for Terri Nunn, especially after she had that blonde and black hairdo which she sported in the video clip to No More Words. Later still I got the hots for Susanna Hoffs from The Bangles, and that sexy sideways glance she gave in the video clip to Walk Like an Egyptian.

All those pop babes smouldered, and I was smitten. But those lovely ladies have got nuthin’ on the foxes of today’s music scene, I mean these babes of pop are positively smokin’! From R&B to dance, electro-pop to pop-folk, these are pop’s finest-looking divas indeed. Whether it be a svelte Latin hussy like Shakira, a bombshell blonde like Avril, a buxom brunette like Mutya, or Afrodite herself, Erykah.

It was hard keeping the selection limited to my usual twenty-four; a few gorgeous girls didn’t make the cut, while twins were counted as one, and one curvaceous starlet had to be included as an honoury pop babe, even though she’s actually a DJ (and before that a porn star from Hungary). So without further adieu here are the current babes of pop that rock my world.

For the name of the pop babe (and group) scroll cursor over each respective picture.

I'm such a sucker for the R&B babes; they ooze sensuality - basically they ooze sex, and I lap it up. What can I say? I love the darker berries. So which is the sweetest juice? Rihanna, Ciara, Beyonce, Shakira, they're all divine. But I also love the English roses; Cheryl, Kimberley, and Tina. Mind you the Irish cream, Una, is silky smooth. But not forgetting the honoury Eastern European pop babe: Niki Bellucci ... now there's a pair of headphones!

vampires

October 7th 2009 06:35

“Ahhh, the children of the night, what sweet music they make …”

I’ve been floating in the wilderness myself of late. Please pardon my absence, I have no excuse but one of abject self-indulgence and inherent laziness. I was a prisoner of my own nightmares, where vampires had me under their hypnotic control, I could do nothing, only whimper in the darkness, gingerly finger at my throbbing neck where two holes had been punctured into my pallid flesh, and at regular intervals through the night their warm lips would press against my skin, and their cold needle-sharp fangs would sink back in causing me to black out and dream of falling into the abyss … and loving it.

Miss Universe 2009 alternate finalists

August 28th 2009 04:14

I grew up watching Miss Universe with my father. He’d be illustrating away on his easel and I’d be glued to the television my adolescent hormones coursing through my lions. I remember Miss Venezuela winning in 1981. They’ve won the competition six times (the second highest after USA with seven wins). Puerto Rico has won five times, and Sweden three times. Miss Venezuela won last year and, setting a precedent, won again this year. Must be something in the water they drink.

I have a predilection toward the darker complexion and brunette hair colour. My lover is olive-skinned and a brunette. As they say, the darker the berry, the sweeter the juice. I’d agree with that. Although they also say blondes have more fun, and as a blond myself, I’d have to agree, but my eye will wander in the direction of a dusky jewel more often than a creamy strawberry or platinum bombshell
