Let me preface this post with this: I know that not everyone will agree with me, and that’s okay, because if we all had the same exact tastes, the world would be rather boring. I’ll also say if you want to include your sexiest men in a comment, that would be very much appreciated, and I may add them in a revision to the Top TEN Sexiest Men post for next time!
Alright kiddies, are you ready for some candy?
10.) David Boreanaz: What a sexy Angel He is:
9.) Ryan Reynolds: He makes me wanna learn the words to “Oh Canada”:
8.) Ryan Phillippe: “you know what would be super-duper sexy? If you lost all the clothes.” I concur Ryan.. so.. go ahead, we’ll wait:
7.) Jonny Lang: He can “Lie to Me” all he wants, as long as he sings to me. I bet Taylor Blue agrees:
6.) Charlie Hunnam: “A true outlaw finds the balance between the passion in his heart and the reason in his mind.” I’d be willing to help him find that passion…Just sayin’.
5.) Kellan Lutz: “I want a good girl, who can be a little bad.” Oh Kellan, do I have a list for you!:
4.) Ian Somerhalder: “Oh because I wear a ring, and I live in the really real world where vampires burn in the sun.” That one line made me love him. BUT I have to admit, he’s up here because of Taylor Blue’s unwavering ability to try to convince me of his sexy!:
3.) Paul Wesley: *Grrrrowl* That is all.
2.) Robert Pattinson: “My addictions are pretty much the only things I consume.” Care to be someone’s addiction, Rob? I think it’d do you some good:
Okay, and now for the number you’ve all been waiting for.. I bet you think you know who I chose right? Well… you’re probably right. However, I decided to technically involve all of the band… so here’s to saying that ALL 100 Monkeys are SMOKIN’ HOT!
1.)From Left to right: Ben Johnson,Jerad Anderson,Jackson Rathbone,Ben Graupner:

We love 100 Monkeys here. All of them (Jackson Rathbone, Ben Graupner, Ben Johnson, Jerad Anderson, and Uncle Larry). And I am so happy to see that one of my favorite songs, Ugly Girl, is a music video. And really watching the guys putting on makeup is funny! I love it! I think the guys should for sure rock that look more often at concerts.
Jackson did an interview recently and he was saying how he is more excited about music than acting…which later he explains that he loves both. (Considering the band is releasing a new album, GRAPE.)
“People say that [I'm more excited about music than acting], but I just feel like I have more control over music than I do over, say, playing Jasper in the Twilight series. Because I get to write the words that I sing. As opposed to as an actor, I wear what people want me to wear, I stand where they want me to stand, I say what they want me to say. That’s great — I love being an actor and I’ve been studying to be an actor since I was about 14 years old. But music balances it out. I can’t have one without the other.”
I know that I would be sad if Jackson left either place. He can rock it out and act. And later in the interview I love how humble that Jackson has stayed.
“We don’t have a cushy life. We’re not playing arenas and selling them out yet. We play dirty dive bars and love it. Whenever we’re on the road we sleep in two motel room and take turns sleeping on the floors. It’s not all glamorous and it’s great. If it were all glamor, it’d be boring.”
I love that they play at the “dirty bars” I have heard nothing but good things about their concerts. It could be that they are more intimate because they are smaller. They love to connect with the audience. And for that…they will always be loved.
I had a frantic text message sent to me that I needed to see these pictures of Jackson Rathbone and that I would be super excited to see them. And since I spent yesterday talking about Kellan Lutz, I thought why not and talk about Jackson.
They published a couple of behind the scenes pictures from the set of Jackson’s new movie, Girlfriend. Yesterday, details about the movie were released by the director, Justin Lerner, who had this to say about the movie.
We’re in an economic crisis, and [the film is set] in a small town where there’s lots of lying, deceit, jealousy, rage, violence. Evan is pure good. He’s pure innocent love. How fascinating would it be to put pure, innocent, unconditional love […] into this world, and see what happens.
Jackson is an amazing actor. I can’t wait to see him in this movie rumored to be released in 2010.
I was perusing the 100 Monkeys site today, you can find it right here: OOH OHH AH AH! and do you know what I realized?
That even if I wanted to purchase certain things, like say, a T-shirt or bumper sticker, I couldn’t, because they don’t have them for sale on there!
*Shaking my head* That will never, never do boys.
Now, I know they’re busy, and their focus is elsewhere, so inspiration hit me! What if I was to design some merch for them? What if I was to give them an idea or.. TEN?
Let me just say, I came up with so many more than TEN, so hey Marty, and Tim, if you’re interested contact me, I’ll send you a powerpoint of my other ideas *wink*.
Anyway, ready for my TOP TEN? Of course you are! *Grin*
10.) Gotta show some love to the Bananager! Admittedly I didn’t make this but it’s just a generalized idea, a stuffed banana, isn’t it the cutest?
9.) The Monkeyboggan!
8.) Sock Monkeys for each of the boys! I picked a few that could fit each of them (though they deserve their own sock monkey made in their likeness)
“Bouncy” Ben G:
Jackson “Johnny Bravo”:
Jerad “I’m Up To Something”:
Ben “Busy Hands” J:
Uncle “Face” Larry:
7.) The Monkeywear: Hey Men love the Monkeys too!:
6.) Monkties! Cute panties with Monkey sayings. You know I have to be honest, I really giggle at this, since I embarrassingly,referred to my girly bit, my *ahem* as a monkey the majority of my life, until I grew up, and you know,gave her a name :
5.) I want a Monkey to keep me warm! How about a Monkoodie!? :
4.) You’ve heard of the little black book? Pffft! Who needs it? Aspire to be just like Jackson, and have a “Bone Book”. Keep all of your public, and not so public numbers in this hot little slice of leather:
3.) Monkey Shaker anyone? I’ll keep my commentary to myself on this one since I can’t keep it even rated R. *laugh*:
2.) Hey you Little Looker, you KNOW you want this shirt if you’re a true (as I call myself) a Monchichica! OR A Monkey Junkie (as they’re popularly coined):
Oh this one is my favorite, because I’m sure there are men all over the world, saying this aloud several dozen times per day, and it just is begging to be made!
1.) For every man who has a girl that loves the 100 Monkeys:
See, cute right?
You guys would buy this stuff, yeah?
So write em, tell them that Willow Raine has some terrific ideas, and they should market them, so they can make some dough!

HOWEVER any of the designs on the merch was coined by Willow Raine of TEN]]
When I received this in my inbox, I was absolutely thrilled and honored, because any of you that have read my posts as of late, know that I hold Spencer Bell close to my heart.
The ASCC is hosting a competition, involving Spencer and your creativity! The winner will receive a trip and a meeting with the 100 Monkeys (and Jackson Rathbone, if his schedule permits, that poor man is constantly on the go. We all know if he CAN be there, wild horses couldn’t drag him away.)
The best part? The proceeds raised will go to the ASCC to help Spencer Bell Legacy and also raise money for the research against cancer.
That alone should be your main reason to enter. However, as long as you enter, that’s what matters. Get the word out there, you can’t win if you don’t enter, remember as they say “Somebody’s got to win, may as well be you!”
Now maybe you’re wondering how you can enter, and you’re wanting me to shut up. The latter probably isn’t going to happen any time soon *Laugh* So, let me tell you how to enter this beautiful competition:
By the way, the answer to the following question should be:
YES, YES, A Million times YES.
These guys are incredible to their fans, and always have a smile in place. Oh and, they ROCK!
