Double Take

As red blooded human beings we all have our favourite (looking) actors, singers, athletes and general celebrities. The ones that we watch their music videos or pay to sit through their movies just because we want to see and ogle and perve over and fantasise about them...

And of course you have the celebs that you wouldn't look at twice on a normal day...not to say that they're unattractive or anything, just that they aren't your cup of tea...

But then you catch them in one film, heck, even just a particular scene in a film when you're like 'hot diggity dayumm, who is that?!' 

When I saw the following, I uttered the phrase above and really did a double take:

I know alot of people feel Brad, i've never been one of them but when I saw him in Oceans 11 I was entranced...

Brad Pitt as Rusty Ryan

I first watched Speed when I was really young, but when I watched it again a few years ago, I couldn't believe that this was Neo aka Thomas Anderson aka The One...

I think it's that dark hair, broody eyes and semi-buzz cut... 

Keanu Reeves as Officer Jack Traven

I've always thought that The Bloomster was a looker from when I saw him as Legolas in 'Lord of the Rings' but when he appeared in Pirates of the Caribbean, I really did go and buy the DVD box set...

Orlando Bloom as Will Turner

Common has looked the same since like forever but there was something about him in Smokin Aces that made me sit up in my cinema seat and take notice..

Common as Sir Ivy

When I watched 'Inception' I knew there was something about Tom that I liked however it was only until I bought RocknRolla on DVD that I realised how much of a hottie he really is...

Tom Hardy as Handsome Bob

I went to see Amityville Horror for a friends birthday when I was in college, that film scared the life outta me but somehow whenever Mr Reynolds would appear on screen, my eyes would make an appearance from behind my hands...

Ryan Reynolds as George Lutz

As a fanatical viewer of CSI, i'm used to seeing good ol' Larry on my screen every week but whenever I watch him in Boyz N The Hood i'm just like...

Laurence Fishburne as Furious Styles

I've got a few more but I think they're a bit too kinky to share...
I joke..
or
Do I...

Cougar In The Making?

In uni I used to be a real ravers clavers, chicken and beer #NoMrVegas - but yea, you name a coach rave held between 2006 and 2008, I was there... 


Liquid on a Monday? Course!
Marinos on a Wednesday? Pssshhh! 
A random talent show/fashion show/MC battle with an after-party in the Student Union? Fuhgeddaboudit!


However, after I graduated and moved back to London, that whole aspect of my life really calmed down...I went down the drinks-after-work-in-a-trendy-Liverpool St-bar route instead...


Now I know all the stereotypes about raving and the kinda people you meet in raves yada yada yada but that doesn't mean one can't look and occasionally engage in a bitta lighthearted banter right? 


The last rave I went to was a couple months ago during which I got talking to a really cute guy, just finding out his gist or walleva...about 10 minutes into the convo, I found out that he was 19 years old...I blinked twice rapidly and then made a hasty retreat outta there...


It did get me thinking about how all these youngsters are looking alot less young and alot more...my age...


Then you have the ones that you know are younger than you but can't help admiring...


Below I have listed the three main culprits who are guilty of making me take a trip to Cougar Town - even if it's only in my head... 

First of all we have Chris Brown -born in 1989, more like NineteenEightyFine!

Debonair in black

Phwoarr!

Second of all we have Tinie Tempah born in 1988 - let's go on a date! 

A bitta ruff'n'smooth...

Lookin all geek chic...

Bringing up the rear is Zane Malik from last years X-Factor - born in *covers face in shame* 1993... but in my defence yea, he goes out with Rebecca Ferguson who is older than me so yea...

Look at that bone structure...

Cor blimey! 

 I'm not a cougar in the making...am I?

"If you don't have a BB, you don't have a BB"

When I got my BlackBerry 6 months ago (I was a bit of a latecomer) I was like 'Bun updating my status all the time and changing my pic, thats what Twitter is for' 


Now all those who have a BB know that you just get sucked in with all the palaver; the smileys, the broadcasts (I've never sent one before), the direct indirects, the broadcasts (I still haven't sent one), the adding and subsequent deleting of randoms, the broadcasts (I never intend to send one), the group chats, the ping wars...


But the one thing, the one thing that makes me adore my BB and willingly get into work late cos I just had to go home and get it are the various DP's - display pic's for those who aint in the know...


From the downright scandalous to the ones that were made just for me, here are my fave ones so far...

Daydreaming on a Sunday afternoon...

Connorrrr! 

I love lil kids who look like adults! 

I don't even wear trainers but I would, just to recreate this pic...

A bitta PDA

Even though this guy is permanently high, I just love him

I want her belly...and I want him

I hurt my arm one time tryna retrieve my BB when it fell down the side of my bed...
That was a real injury of love

*sigh*

Hol tite Hev!

Keep on your tippy toes

A car...with eyelashes

Cocktail Frenzy!

Gotta love Nelson

This is beautiful...

We've all felt like this...no?

The Kid looking suave

Sexual Chocolate

This was my status when I put this up:
"Who does this heffa think she is?!?!"

This pic had me so baffed one Saturday afternoon

Oyinbo Choongers

I know that this is alorra lorra pics but theres just one more that has recently come into my life... it makes me speechless but then raises so many questions at the same time...

Who? What? When? Where? How???

Like Breezey says; "I'm done!"
