Posted by WillowRaine on August 26, 2009 | 2 Comments

So, I’ve been slack, it’s been a while since I’ve hit you with a Top TEN. I know, I know, I promise I’ll try to do better.
However, I have to say, I couldn’t have come up with anything much sexier to give you (that doesn’t have to be covered that is) than the Top Ten Most Incredible Pairs of Hands. So,without further adieu or more incessant,useless rambling from yours truly, here they are:

10.) Shane West: Landon from “A Walk to Remember” turned hottie Rocker for the band Jonny Was:

9.) Johnny Depp:”I may have a feather duster down my pants.” (And I know a lot of women that would like to find out.)

8.) Jonathan Brandis: My second childhood crush, I believe. Unfortunately,he’s no longer with us. 1976-2003.

7.) Eddie Izzard: How he longs for a grapefruit, but always manages to find time for a manicure We love him.

6.) Criss Angel: Slight of hand anyone? As it applies to Criss, yes please and thank you. I’m sure that Taylor Blue would agree.

5.) Chris Martin: Coldplay guitarist, his hands speak for themselves.

4.) Tori Amos: She’s beautiful, talented and her hands are amazing.

3.) Justin Timberlake: Meet the hands behind the man that brought sexy back.

2.) Jackson Rathbone:”You know that song, ‘If a body catch a body comin’ through the rye’?…” I merely hope, if there is a catcher,(as opposed to just a body meeting a body) that Jay could be mine.

and my number one pair of the most incredible pairs of hands belongs to someone that I have had the fortune of meeting and spending a bit of time with. I can embarrassingly admit that I was drawn to him far before I knew he was “famous” but I digress. His hands captivate me..

1.) Ben Graupner: You all know him from 100 Monkeys, I’m sure. Before I knew him as Ben G from the Monkeys, I knew him as “Wow, who is that? He is so amazing”.

Top TEN Guys Rockin’ The Eyeliner:

Posted by WillowRaine on August 2, 2009 | 7 Comments

You all know, that I, Willow Raine, LOVE guys who wear eyeliner, it is a huge weakness of mine. Once upon a time, the prerequisites for the boyfriend position was 1.)You had to play the guitar, 2.)You had to wear eyeliner. I know, trust me, and though my tastes have evolved to “Seduce my mind and you can have my body, Find my soul and I’m yours forever” mentality, I still adore guys who wear eyeliner.
I had some help with this list, I’d like to give thanks to Ten Gossip’s own Taylor Blue and my favorite photographer JODIE PLATZ. They definitely reminded me of a few people that I had missed.

10.) Nikki Sixx- Bass player for Motley Crue (Yes, they’re still around!):

9.) David Cook- American Idol winner, yes,but definitely not a cookie cutter artist:

8.) Jared Leto-From My So Called Life, to a “rocker”:

7.) Pete Wentz- Fall Out Boy:

6.) Dave Navarro- Jane’s Addiction, Red Hot Chili Peppers. He’s been Rockin’ the eyeliner for years..and doing it extremely well:

5.) Johnny Depp- Who wears eyeliner? “Well, beatniks for one, folk singers and motorbike riders. Y’know. All those hip, jazzy, super cool, neat, keen, and groovy cats. It’s in the fridge, daddy-o! Are you hip to the jive? Can you dig what I’m layin’ down?”

4.) Criss Angel- Mindfreak. He can Freak me, period:

3.) Eddie Izzard- “And uh, it’s – it’s male lesbian, that’s really where it is, ok? Because – it’s true! Cause most transvestites fancy girls. So – fancy women. So that’s where it is. So running, jumping, climbing trees, putting on makeup when you’re up there. That’s where it is.”

2.) Adam Lambert- Yes, I still have “Lambertitis”, and I still enjoy every minute of it. His ability to wear eyeliner gives me chills:

And my number one pick for today,looks gorgeous with or without the eyeliner. As a matter of fact, I’m pretty sure he only rocks it for photoshoots, but I’d love to see it on him more often.

1.) Kellan Lutz- Will you wear it more often for me, Kel, please? I promise not to be “Miss Bossy Booty.” I’d even beg if you wanted *Wink*:

“Do You Have A Flag?”

Eddie Izzard does! In at LEAST four different charities. If you have no idea who Eddie Izzard is, well first, SHAME ON YOU, and secondly check him out (It has mature language,viewer discretion advised) HERE and HERE.
He also starred in “Monty Python” episodes, the movie “Across The Universe”,”Rags To Riches” and so much more. Amazing actor, terrific comedian, and as I have recently found out, an incredibly charitable man. He is a strong supporter of AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL, an organization that has 2.2 million members and subscribers (and growing) in more than 150 countries and regions, who are absolutely outraged by human rights abuse internationally and in all areas. That outrage fuels the hope that inspires them, causing them to take action, to help acquire justice, to make this world a better place. The second charity that he is a part of is BREAST CANCER CAMPAIGN, which supports research for improving diagnosis,and treatment of breast cancer. Helping to understand how it develops,which will hopefully, in the near future, lead to a cure. Eddie also lends his giving heart to MAKE POVERTY HISTORY the biggest ever anti-poverty movement thus far. Lastly, but certainly not least U.S. CAMPAIGN FOR BURMA As stated on their site -

“A U.S.based membership organization dedicated to empowering grassroots activists around the world to bring about an end to the military dictatorship in Burma.”

For years, Eddie Izzard has brought me countless laughs, and as a matter of fact, I could speak for the rest of my life in his quotes. Since I have been introduced to his comedy, I can think of very few conversations “Of Which There Are FIVE!” that don’t have at LEAST one Eddie Izzard quote in them. Now, he has made me smile, made me happy, and has given me hope by proving that he is an extremely amusing comedian, but an equally incredibly giving human being.

My Dearest Robert: Ideas to Combat Boredom!

Posted by WillowRaine on April 23, 2009 | 3 Comments

As most of you know, my..I meant, the incredible, Robert Pattinson, says he spends his time at home (because he never does ANYTHING) experimenting with things to put in the microwave. I thought that I’d help give him a few ideas. Though, admittedly, there is only so much stuff you can put in there before you get into trouble, or start a fire *laugh* and yours truly won’t go into everything she has put into that appliance, oh no. So, this post has now evolved from just “cool things to microwave” into goofy ideas to keep one from being bored. I thought Rob would appreciate them, and my sense of humor. Without further adieu, if you are looking for cool things to microwave, Rob go HERE or HERE! They’re actually very creative ideas. Although, they didn’t mention or show rather, some of the cool foods that I suggest. So, here is my “food” list of microwavable fun! Eggs (any way you choose to do them, they’re fun), marshmallows, Banana IN the peel, Hot dogs, Ice Cream, Canned biscuits (take them out of the can of course), Cheeze Whiz (take the top off), Peeps,and someone very cool mentioned to me grapes and soap. I’d save the citrus fruits oranges and lemons for after you’ve microwaved all the other mess, they say lemons help clean the appliance, so that may be helpful even!
As for my other ideas to help you combat boredom Rob, I’d suggest the following, they all seemed amusing to me. Ready? I thought so!
*Learn to Hula Hoop
*Peep Jousting Click me!
*Peddle Your Peaches (if you figure this out, let me know)
*Blink wildly, then close your eyes for a light show
*Try NOT to think about cheese
*Take up Knitting
*Have a philosophical debate with yourself, about if there is in fact a wrong side to drink out of, on a round cup.
*Play yourself in Chess
*Pick a common word,make it the super secret word of the day and when people say it, scream and jump around!
*Invent conspiracy theories about why there are no reruns of The Wonder Years
*Dress up as Captain Jack Sparrow and try to figure out why the Rum is always gone
*Wear a Mullet wig and when accosted for it simply reply “It’s okay, I’m taking it back”
*Carry around a jar of orange marmalade and when anyone looks at you funny just say “Oh yeah baby,I totally am.”
*Dress in drag and do the Hula

Oh and of course, how could I ever forget, Robert, darlin’, you should watch Eddie Izzard (You tube him if you haven’t heard of him, he’s HILARIOUS), and anything Monty Python!
Alright, so I think I’ve given you enough ideas to help combat boredom for a couple of days, at any rate. There are so many more where those came from, trust me *laugh*. I’m not right, I know. Though, in my defense I never claimed to be, but I’m fun, and that has to count for something!
