the sexy natalie portman

I love Natalie Portman. I do think she is the sexiest actress right now (sans her Star Wars involvement, which were terrible.). Imagine my surprise when I hear “Nude vide of Natalie Portman?” Of course I had to check it out.

Okay folks. Jesus. Calm down. So she bared a little derrier and a full-body nude profile. Not very porn at all, though still beautiful. You do have to bare through the 12 minute short video by Wes Anderson. She’s so damn hot!

You can download the video from itunes.

Haven’t watched television in, maybe, a year? This show, however, has me interested, and I may just turn on the tele this week. Or most likely, I’ll wait for the DVD release (which will take me 3-4 months to watch. Yeah, Netflix loves me.). [via Amy W.]

Thanks, Amy, for the tip.

The Return of Dancing

By Jim Cyr

America had a love affair with “dancing” in the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s - the Broadway musical had its Golden Age, and so did the Movie Musical …

In the 1960s “reality” and the paradigm shifts of society made dancing seem “trite” “contrived” and the public’s appreciation for dance went the way of the Dodo through the 80s and 90s into the 21st Century.

Oh, sure, there were a few “exceptions” (Saturday Night Fever, Footloose) but for the most part clunkers like Can’t Stop the Music and Xanadu were the rule and the disappearance of the Variety Show from the TV schedule meant that dancing had fallen ‘out of favor’ in the public eye - heck, even the Academy Awards fazed out the big production dance numbers that were once the hallmark of the broadcast ceremonies.

A couple of years ago - in this day and age of “reality” TV (and with the runaway success of American Idol) - ABC took a chance with B, C, and D list celebrities and launched the no-budget show “Dancing With The Stars” - shortly thereafter came “So You Think You Can Dance”

Each season of both shows has “upped the ante” CONSIDERABLY - so much so, that I was utterly blown away by the QUALITY of the dancing and the choreography on last night’s season premiere of Dancing With the Stars.

The dances are considerably longer than in the past and the demands far greater - sure, some of the “stars” are pretty obscure, but they are working hard to deliver the dance - it shows and makes for VERY entertaining television.

Even MTV spent last weekend rerunning this summer’s So You Think You Can Dance (and, yes, I ended up watching most of it again (in between football and baseball) - it was that good !!)

I’ve seem to have lost track of my buddy, Luke Foslien, who recently moved back to Minnesota. I wonder if I can reach him via Google search. I suppose it all depends on if he regularly searches on his own name or not.

Hey, if you get this post… Will you give me a shout?

That poor Rob Lowe

Once a villain, always a villain. Poor guy. I do give him credit for laughing at himself.

After killing an Iowa state bird during a charity golf game in Iowa, Rob Lowe confessed, “That’s unbelievable. Who comes here and kills the state bird? Only me.”

I thought this story was kinda funny until I pulled up the image of this cute little goldfinch, the Iowa state bird. First of all, that’s some shot! Bird is tiny. Secondly, only a born villain could kill this pretty little thing by accident. Seriously! That’s just bad joo-joo.
