Manliest Men in Hollywood according to (m)E!

E! online has come up with an interesting list of 9 men who they consider to be "Hollywood's Manliest Men" and I think some additions should be made. I agree with some of the selections they made however such as Hugh Jackman who is perhaps the hottest old guy in Hollywood, Gerard Butler, Jason Statham [[ Mr. Transporter Guy... please tell me they have stopped making those movies]] and Mark Wahlberg.

The list seems to be in no particular order but may I just say the name and image that struck me from their list and would be #1 on my list is :

ISAIAH MUSTAFA
Rynel wud surely agree with me on this one... many who know us have fallen prey to our rantings related to all-things-Isaiah... never have I ever said "SWAN DIVE!" so much. We salute u Isaiah Mustafa [[Old Spice guy]] !!!


Now I'm not too sure exactly where this next manly man is hiding but many people still refer to him as the guy that could kick anything's ass ... yeh I'm talking about :
CHUCK NORRIS
"Chuck Norris never wet his bed as a child. The bed wet itself out of fear."


It must be noted that the name that first came to mind when I thought of a manly Hollywood man and whose absence from the list inspired me to make one of my own was :
JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME
It may be an extremely old pic of him but nothing screams "I am a manly man hear me roar" quite like biting a rattlesnake's tail. Although I'm sure Isaiah could do that blindfolded while feeding the homeless [[ LOL ]]


Alright, enough with all the grandpas LOL. I happen to think this man right here is pretty damn cool with his interesting lil accent. Since I saw him in The Losers it was official... he is a manly man:
IDRIS ELBA

Cannot wait for him in Takers [[ I'm almost certain I would have to do a post about that cos there are way too many good-looking men ... I mean *ahem* talented actors in one movie... it should be a crime]].

Lastly, I'm no fan of his... I happen to find him quite frightening... but the power to instill fear makes him a serious contender lol :
LAURENCE FISHBURNE

Now I know what you're thinking... this was not the sexiest list but did I ever say they would be sexy? No. I just said "manly" ... LOL

So there you have it. Just a few people I think got left out from E! online's list... if u think most of them are too old for that, think again cos there was not a single baby face on that list... matter of fact 2 of the 9 I don't really know who they are and they look like they may have gone to school with my grandpa.

Apology/ Summer?Where has it gone?

Firstly, I cannot believe I have taken so long to do a post. Deepest & sincerest apologies but my writer's block was intense and it's only been somewhat lifted cos I figured i HAVE to do something, even if it interests noone :p

SO!
Where has summer... sorry, rainy season vacation... gone??? Yes... my heart jumped for joy at the thought of four whole months of sunny, lazy bliss. Double the vaca, double the fun?? No. Not when u have a summer job for the ENTIRE summer my friends. The glare from those dollar signs is too bright especially with the cost of liming being so high [[ tell me I'm lying, I dare u ]]. Oh well, in a few weeks' time it'll be back to the same old grind of selective class attendance and multiple junk food runs at the place we all know and love... oh yes, school *swoon!*
How I've missed it all... waking up late and texting Rynel to ask her where's the seat she saved for me; channa pies HEAVY on the chutney for breakfast; uncooked KFC; Beyonce breezes [[ the breeze particularly by JFK and the undercroft is amazing to say the least ]]; excursions for Papa John's [[ soon to be Burger King! =) ]]; iPod air hockey... the list goes on and on.
Those r all the things I actually like bout school and they truly have nothing to do with school come to think of it. Things like... idk... class and the throngs of people did not make the cut. No shock there.

OH! I also kinda just stumbled upon E! online's "Manliest Men in Hollywood" list and decided... hmm.. i slightly disagree with this... so the next post will be focused on who they thought of as "manliest" and who my picks are. And I'm not gonna take forever to post it like I took for this lol
