The NOT SO HOT List

OK, this is just a rant for my own sake, so please don't get offended. 
I know it is a LAME thing to blog about, but it is driving me NUTS!!
(Oh, and for the record, Justun has NOTHING to do with this, he 
thinks I am a HUGE nerd, he just doesn't understand)
I am so sick of people saying how HOT Michael Phelps is ...
(you know the 8-time Gold Medal Olympian) 
Please take a closer look people:















I will start out by giving him due credit:

1. He does have a hot athletic body, no doubt. Not exactly my kind 
of "HOT" body, but hot all the same. (Look at the other guy, his body 
is even better!)

2. He is a hell of a swimmer and the most amazing athlete I think 
I have ever seen. 

BUT...

HE IS NOT HOT, he is the goofiest looking guy I have ever seen. 
OK that is an exaggeration, not ever, but he is still a huge goof. 
(I even posted a semi-good picture of him, it was hard to come by)
He talks funny, like in dubbed Kung-Fu movies when the mouth 
keeps moving after they have finished talking and he slurs, please 
tell me how that is sexy? He has big ears and crooked teeth. Like I 
said Goof with a capital G. The other swimmers have equally hot 
bodies and no one is gushing over them and they ARE hotter. 
Apparently, if you win 8 GOLD medals, you are automatically hot, 
sorry folks I beg to differ. GET A GRIP!!!

Next on my NOT SO HOT list:

Robert Pattinson (plays Edward in "Twilight" the movie)
Ok, he is not ugly, I will give him that. He will probably do a great 
job I'm sure, but he is just not what I pictured in my head AT ALL! 
HELLO, Edward has perfect teeth, perfect body, perfect 
EVERYTHING. And Robert Pattinson just doesn't do it for me, he 
will always be Cedric Diggory to me (Harry Potter, Goblet of Fire). 
Yes I love Harry Potter, too. Justun is right, I AM A BIG NERD! 
It's okay I am totally cool with it. 

He also pales in comparison to the actor who Stephanie Meyer had
hoped to play the part and I am in 100% agreement with her on this. 
Henry Cavill would have been much better to look at. Oh, how I wish 
I were Bella! Please judge for yourself and if you disagree with me, 
please keep it to yourself, I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR IT!!! 










And off the soapbox I step, thanks for bearing with me.

Amen on the Michael Phelps thing! I didn't know she had someone else in mind to play Edward....he is Hot!

I heard that Henry Cavill turned down the part - do you know anything about it? These poor actors - it's like musical chairs for them...

Alexis,

I am not sure who you are, but I will answer your question anyways. I have heard that he wasn't offered the part because his agent said he doesn't do vampire movies, but there is no fact behind that, I read it somewhere online.

Bree, I love your rant. You crack me up. I would have to agree. Michael Phelps is a great athlete and seems like a pretty good guy. NOT HOT THOUGH! I'm pretty sure that nobody could play the Edward who is in my head. But, I am dang excited for the movie.

Okay, the Michael Phelps thing...I agree...the most amazingly talented swimmer/athlete of our time, but also one of the ugliest! Ape arms and midget legs just don't do anything for me. The best thing he has going for him is that he probably doesn't have a single hair on his body right now!!! He has changed the world of swimming, when a 3 year old knows his face, he is definately amazing- but not Hot, handsome, or cute. But those other guys on the team....WOW! Thanks for posting my exact feelings on the subject.

I agree with you and everyone else! He's okay looking until he opens his mouth and talks! I can't stand listening to him, or watching him talk. It's horrific!

Doney Days said...

I do agree with you. I was actually thinking the same thing about Michael Phelps last week. I kept thinking, "why does everyone think he's so hot?" He's not my taste and his teeth really bug me. I know, I'm mean!

Hey Bree!!!!
I totally found you from Heather's blog and I'm wondering why she never said anything to me about it!
Anyway, LONG time no see! Can I add you to my blog list?
It will be fun to catch up...
By the way- I'm totally agreeing with you about Edward. To me, he was more than an infatuation in my mind. I was so disappointed by CEDRIC! The Edward in my mind was striking and delicious.
Can't wait to hear back from you!
Love,
Deb

Hey Bree. That could possibly be the funniest blog I've ever read. It was great! Oh, and I don't think that there's anyone on earth who is perfect enough to be Edward. They are going to have a hard time getting the diamondy skin.
