Just Because: Bren Foster
Great face, sexy accent and a chest to die for, it is no wonder Days of Our Lives quickly rehired Bren Foster last month. He is a hot property one the show was silly to even think of losing. Somehow I am not sure the show will really be able to ulitize what they have but we shall see.
Happy Birthday today July 30th to:
Favorite Click of the Day:
YVY Mag showcases an incredible shoot by Thomas Synnamon of model Raymond Zommer
for James Tudor Underwear. With all of Synnamon's amazing work I think this shoot just might be one of my all time favorites!
Prime Time Goodbyes:
Two reality cuties departed their respective shows last night.
I only began watching Big Brother a little over a week ago (with the announced departure of Dick) but with the Dominic's departure last night the only reason to keep watching, walked out the door. This season is just a rehash of the past several years (and not the good parts) and I, like the only eye candy of the season, am gone.
I am not exactly sure what show the judges watched on Wednesday but Jess' hip hop was my favorite of the night. He always brings a smile to my face! There was emotion elsewhere but none of the others drew me in like Jess.
And... I like Gaga well enough but as talented as she is she can certainly come off as a wackjob at times...

A Thousand Images Later: Benjamin Godfre by Carl Proctor
It is always a pleasure to work on a post featuring the work of Carl Proctor. When I first profiled Carl's work earlier in the year, (Visual Stimulation) I touched upon Carl's journey through experiencing fantasies to now capturing them through his lens. I am sure that capturing the scorching image of Benjamin Godfre is a fantasy many of us share.
Benjamin continues to strengthen his Benjaminion Nation, something I wrote about a couple of weeks ago in a story featuring his work with Jon Seneca (The Serious Case of Benjamin Godfre).
'I LOVE my fans and they mean a lot to me. It’s not even work, it’s play. I like to cultivate relationships and I want to see how huge we can grow as a group! Everyone should be having a blast right along side with me!'
Benjamin Godfre
Carl and Benjamin recently met up for an intense two day marathon of shooting. Carl's ability to skillfully capture moments, and most beautifully moments in motion, is creatively and erotically front and center in his recent work with Benjamin. I thank Benjamin for once again helping out and supporting FH showcasing his work. Benjamin loved not only working with Carl but the results of their two days together.
'Carl is a great guy. He is efficient and professional. He also has a great vocabulary and a kind soul.'
Benjamin flew into Atlanta from LA to meet up with Carl for the two day shoot. Carl says when he got to the airport it was no surprise to see Benjamin walking towards him with skateboard in hand. 'He's a skateboard-aholic. Must go with the California lifestyle!' After checking into his hotel the two got right to work and it was no surprise to Carl that Benjamin was sporting his trademark Timoteo's. Carl says that Benjamin always keeps his fans and supporters in mind when working and does all he can to ensure he gives them his best.
'His extensive modeling experience and high energy, coupled with an unrivaled sense of humor made the 2 day shoot go by very quickly. Over a thousand images later, I dropped him back off at the airport for his evening flight into the sunset back to La La Land.'

I have not seen all one thousand, but thanks to Carl, have seen quite a few, and look forward to presenting much more of his work with Benjamin over the next few weeks!

Just Because: Torchwood
I don't watch Torchwood but someone please tell me it is a good idea to start! I have loved John Barrowman since he jogged through Central Park in his shorts in the short lived series Central Park West. I have loved Dillon Casey since he flaunted his blatant sex appeal (and amazing posterior) on the Canadian hockey soap MVP. Now together they make one might hot couple!

Unfanning...
Have you ever unfanned someone?
Like clicking 'unfriend' on facebook, as I get older I am finding it easier to remove an artist from the list of performers I once enjoyed. For the most part, it is not really something that is necessary to worry about. Most actors, singers that I love I remain a fan of always. Some, simply sort of slowly vanish off my radar and no action is really required.
Last year I decided I had to unfan Whoopi Goldberg. It was sort of a big deal to me as she had always been one of my favorite performers. Moved me in The Color Purple and entertained me so in many other projects. 'Jumpin Jack Flash' for years was my 'go to' movie. You know that movie you stick in to watch when your down, maybe bored or need a pick me up of some kind. I pretty much wore out my VHS copy before getting the DVD. I hope one day that I will be able to put it back on again. Maybe after Whoopi departs The View I might. Defanning Whoopi was not easy but after listening to her say some of the stupidest things (the tipping point was not her defence of Mel Gibson or Tracey Morgan but more the defending of convicted rapists who happen to be her friends) pushed me over the edge.
Defanning this particular actor in took quite a bit longer but was actually quite a bit easier. It was not one event or quote that did it but more a perceived slow change in his behavior that made defanning a simple choice.
I crushed over him as a teen, found him adorable and oh so talented. Loved his work on television, movies and especially on stage. His hosting, especially this past years Tony's was incredible, in fact his work on the Tony's this year should garner him a well deserved EMMY. It is not his talent that is in question, his talent in undeniable. I guess the unfanning comes down to a noticeable change in attitude.
Over the past few years I have found, not sure how exactly to describe it.... an arrogance maybe, condescending attitude... Maybe the easiest way to say it is that he seems to so obviously and blatantly let others know just how good he thinks he is. I notice often at award shows that when the camera is on him he is all smiles. When is he is unaware he is being captured he appears bored, even showing a bit disdain for what is going on around him.
Earlier this week while I was getting ready for work I caught a bit of his appearance on Regis and Kelly. His looks into the camera, years ago all smiles and excitement, have been replaced by looks of over confidence. Each time he said something remotely witty he looked right at the camera, the audience, smugly seeminly telling those watching he knows exactly how great he is.
Maybe this is just a stage, maybe it is just my perception...
Curious if others see anything like this. I do know this perception does not come from one appearance but dozens over the past several years. It began as as a hint but has distinctly grown more and more obvious with each passing appearance.
Salut to Shawn: The Gentlemen of Marlen Boro
Saturday Morning:
-Part 2-
Shawn by Marlen Boro
If you click on the The Gentlemen of Marlen Boro link at the right you will notice that Shawn has been the focus of the weekly feature for over the past month. This week we sadly have to say goodbye to Shawn who is making his final (at least for now) appearance. In part 2 of Saturday Morning, Shawn, in his tighty whities again shows why he has become so popular with fans of Marlen's work.
