Hotties? Moi?
One half of the @2ReelQuirkyCats, Thoughts All Sorts, has tagged me to list my five favourite hotties from the worlds of film/TV/sport etc. Me? Why, I simply don’t understand – as if I’d ever be so shallow as to post pictures of hunks men just because they happen to be gorgeous! No, no! It’s their talent I admire. I mean, these are the heroes who most often appear on my blog and surely nobody could think it’s simply because of their looks…
However, in the spirit of the thing, I’ve selected five extremely talented individuals who’ve never appeared on the blog before. Are they Flaming Hotties? I’ll let you decide… 😉
* * * * *
The rules are simple (to keep it clean)…
-
Mention the name of the Blog you were tagged by. Also mention Realweegiemidget Reviews and Thoughts All Sorts. Link back to all Blogs involved.
-
List five of your greatest hotties from TV and/or film i.e. crushes/objects of your affection. If you want to (I know some of you who do), musicians and sports stars can be included.
-
Tell us how you were “introduced” to them and why you like them/what appeals (keep it clean).
-
Add some pictures (once again, keep it clean. Strictly no nudity. Nice pictures.).
-
Tag seven bloggers for their Five Flaming Hotties.
- Oh…and post the rules…
* * * * *
Don Johnson
Aah, Don! Oh, your wonderful acting in Miami Vice! That sockless pastel look! Philip Michael Thomas! The shades! The cars! Edward James Olmos! The music! The ultimate sexy exoticism of it all! How I loved that show, and mostly just to watch you!
I truly believed that watching you as Sonny Crockett was the ultimate pinnacle of earthly joy… until I saw you, all moody and magnificent, in The Long Hot Summer! How my little heart beat! Now I think about it, must get the DVD so it’s on hand for emergency resuscitation…
* * * * *
Johnny Depp
My sister and I argued for years over Mr Depp. She held the opinion that his fine cheekbones made him one of the most wonderful actors who ever lived, while I felt in truth that he wasn’t quite hunky enough as talented as some others.
But then he became a pirate and the scales fell from my eyes – his true talent was revealed to me in all its glory! He’s not ageing quite as well as some, (and frankly he’s a bit of a self-obsessed idiot), but we’ll always have the images to remind us of his glory days…
* * * * *
Tom Brady
Now it has to be said that I’m more of a tennis fan than an American football fan – primarily because one game is excellent and the other is kinda silly. But due to a certain blog buddy of mine, I have been turned into a New England Patriots fan, pretty much against my will, and am now totally au fait with the strange way Americans spell offense and defense, not to mention the esoteric joys of the passing game. One of the things that has reconciled me to this journey into the arcane rituals of our trans-Atlantic neighbours is Tom Brady, the Pats’ legendary quarterback. Look – isn’t he extraordinarily talented?
* * * * *
Vince Carrola
As a little interlude, here’s a treat from that very blog buddy who first introduced me to the delights of Tom Brady, the wonderful Vince Carrola aka Professor VJ Duke. I’m not including him as one of my hotties because a) he’s appeared on the blog before and b) he’d kill me and then die of embarrassment, so I shall simply say he’s an extremely talented musician, and leave you to judge for yourself…
* * * * *
Jason Momoa
I love almost everything about Stargate Atlantis. Next to Star Trek TNG and Voyager, it’s my top fave sci-fi series. And it has to be said that a major reason for that is Jason Momoa. There’s something about the way his hair whips round him as he battles bad guys often with no more than a stick. (I did hear that in fact he got whiplash from the weight of his hair during the series, so had to have it cut off and replaced with a wig, but we’ll quickly gloss over that little factlet…) He’s good with guns too, though…
It’s the humour in the show that makes it for me and Jason Momoa always has a wicked twinkle in his eye. I’ve never actually seen him in anything else, and am not sure I’d want to – to me he IS Ronon Dex and always will be.
* * * * *
Robert Downey Jr
I watched Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man just a week or two ago and it reminded me of how much I love and adore his perfect face admire his great acting talent. I actually first “met” him when he appeared as Ally McBeal’s love interest.
I adored everything about that show, though I can never bring myself to re-watch it. I imagine it’s horribly dated now – it was of its time and aimed at a certain generation – i.e., mine. And we’ve all aged since then, but Robert, like fine wine in casks of oak, has aged deliciously…
* * * * *
So what do you think of my selection? I’m supposed to tag seven other people but I’m a wild rebel, so instead I’ll just tag anyone who wants to join in. And meantime, do advise me in the comments below which hotties very talented people you think I should check out…

And doesn’t Don Johnson, in your second picture, look more than a little like Kevin Costner (one of my hot heroes, as he bears a remarkable resemblance to a long ago ex, who came first, and meant that Costner, particularly Dancing with Wolves, would have a particular place next to a steaming kettle. The young and even the middle aged Jeff Bridges. I don’t think I can go further….except, the sometimes dangerously unpredictable strangeness of Tommy Lee Jones. Costner, Bridges and Jones made me realise I DID like Westerns! Something about a man being moody and magnificent and riding a horse into (or out of) the sunset…….I think I need to do my accounts, or something similarly deflating. and tedious……….
LikeLike
Ooh, yes! I’d never noticed the Costner resemblance but you’re right! I think it’s something in the moody stare perhaps. I had quite a thing for Kevin back in the Dances with Wolves days. Jeff Bridges is one whom I think has actually improved as he’s aged – he looks beautifully worn and rugged now, and he’s also one of the few men who looks better with a beard, I think. I never really got into Tommy Lee Jones, but I do see that he’s very talented! Personally, given that we all like men in that kind of dusty, dirty leather and boots look (see Ronon Dex above), I don’t know why men insist on wearing smart clothes…

A lovely thought and appropriate to the song, I feel. The Professor however would probably think that was too sweet and would turn it into a major action movie where he battles the wolf and the lynx in unarmed combat… (ooh, could we persuade him to wear leather and boots while he does it, do you think?)
