American Idol Texas stud: Tim Urban

Ok, so he may not exactly be 'the best' singer out of the remaining guys for this season's American Idol... but wow is he stunningly gorgeous once that shirt comes off (not to mention pretty ripped). Seriously this kid could/would be a model I suppose if he wanted to ...

These candids of a shaggy-haired super adorable 20 year-old Texas native Timothy Urban leaked on the net sometime around late last month... And as you can imagine, have been making the rounds as of late ... (can someone say underhanded popularity campaign ?)

Well, whatever, I don't vote on American Idol, but I think it's safe to say a pretty decent voice along with a couple rippling abs might be enough to push this guy further towards the final four (at least for the time being).

Idol judge Ellen Degeneres made a comment a couple days ago that perhaps Glee producers should look into casting this guy for a role... I think it's safe to say I'd be 100% behind that notion, assuming of course they happen to come with a good reason for him to lose the shirt every now and again .

Politics + Modeling = .....

Politics and modeling, plus a gorgeous guy tying it all perfectly together?

Not exactly the most likely collision in professional pursuits, but oddly enough, I could almost swear this would make an outstanding primetime series... Or perhaps really just a downright 'engaging' movie... Either way super gorgeous Days of Our Lives/Passions hunk Eric Martsolf (with a little help from the good guys at Acme) does quite a fantastic job of selling the concept.

And of course should a show like this ever get off the ground, Eric would undoubtedly be a solid lead for the cast ...

Thanks to blogmate Superherofan for not only discovering the video up above... but also finally giving me a reason to post some of my favorite shots of this guy. I swear, people named Eric tend to turn out so gorgeous.. it's almost unfair sometimes ...

'Change' has come... not by design...

I'm not sure if anybody's actually noticed this, but... I've had about 6 posts on the front page for a couple of days now. I'm not sure if anybody's taken note, so I just thought I'd state for the record that it's not exactly by design ... About a week or so ago following my posting of Drew's amazing set by photographer Frank Louis, blogger took it upon themselves to roll out their long anticipated (somewhat sarcasm implied ) new auto-pagination feature... And basically what this amounts to is that bloggers no longer have any control over how many posts appear on a main page. It's now completely automated according to a calculation that measures how much bandwidth a particular blog is using.

Hence my limitation to 6 posts (which I consider lucky considering some people have been left with 1 ). But yeah, I just thought I'd mention what was going on, and give a little heads up about the only work-around with auto-pagination. If you've noticed, I've added a new post break feature to a couple posts below (which as I've been told should limit the bandwidth to something reasonable, and allow me to increase the posting limits on the main page). Plus lo and behold, it's fun new way to structure my posts, so I'll probably be implementing it from here on out. So... if you see a notice to 'continue reading', please do keep reading f you're so inclined...

That is all .

A look back at Mr. Pavelka

Now that all's been said and done... all the flowers handed out, the million-dollar smiles flashed, the side 'controversies dissected', and of course the numerous hearts broken... I believe it's safe to say I'm only left with one question... Does this guy know what he's gotten himself into ?

Ok, granted who's finger he chooses to place that ring on is ultimately his decision to make... plus for all intents and purposes he's supposedly happy enough with his decision (for the time being at least)... But I can't say I'm 100% behind bachelor contestant Jake Pavelka's final choice for future 'matrimony'. Especially considering some of the other girls turned down, but whatever...

I suppose if the whole marriage thing doesn't work out there's always a potential modeling (and perhaps acting) career to fall back on.

Seeing as this might possibly be my last post ever on Jake, I figured I might as well go ahead and post up some of my favorite scans from this past season all at once.

As you can tell, every single one of theses shots posted (along with all the scans I made) originate from OK magazine. I swear those guys practically had the biggest love affair with this man for the past couple of months. And thankfully so, considering some of this beach set shot by LA photographer Giuliano Bekor are nothing short of gorgeous.

Again, if it this whole marriage thing doesn't work out (*flashes grin*)... well I won't try to jinx a new couple... Plus seeing as Jake's future holds a little dancing reality show with competing stars, maybe there's a slight off-chance we might be seeing more of this guy in the coming months. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed...

Just Beautiful Drew

Although I'm prepared to move on from the super hot Pennsylvania model that is Drew... I figured lingering mini look-back was well deserved for this utterly beautiful specimen of humanity.

These shots I do not believe were taken by Frank Louis (the style is quite obviously different)... and truth be told I couldn't even begin to guess who's responsible for them (they kind of look like early shots to be quite honest)....

But again, even in spite of a lower quality shot, this guy is truly nothing short of breath-taking. Just absolutely Beautiful... in every way.
