Totally Random Wednesday # 4- British Babes

Ever since I was girl I have LOVED England. I used to go around speaking with a British accent and I used to really fool people too! I can't remember the very first Brit that made me go ga-ga, but I do know that there has never been a shortage of the merry old hunks that make me swoon. I thought it would be fun to post a few picks of just some of my favorites and allow others who read this blog to join me in collective, shameless slobber. Enjoy!

Matt Smith

You might know this hottie as the 11th Doctor Who on BBC. With that lovely pale skin and green eyes, he just makes you wanna abandon all and join him in an adventure through time in that little blue box of love. And when that box is rocking, no Cyberman, Dahlek or Slitheen better come knocking.

Sting

British men have been some of the world's best singers and musical talents for quite some time. Sting is always close to my heart as I first fell in love with him when I heard his song "Fields of Gold". What an awesomely romantic song. You can really get the sense that Sting is a deep man with a beautiful soul and wicked way with words that will have you melting in his arms.

Ralph Fiennes

Look at that smolder. That's a deathly glance to the hearts of unsuspecting damsels all over this world. Be careful ladies, as Ralph Fiennes is a fine specimen of a man.I absolutely loved him in Red Dragon. I didn't even care if he was a  sadistic hacker. If they all looked like him murder would be legal!

Christian Bale

Hmm, facial-hair-Christian or no facial- hair-Christian? That's what I was thinking when I was searching for pics of this most illustrious beauty. I loved him in Little Women and my heart just melted for him after he apologized for going off on some dude on set. Since I don't want to hurt facial-hair Christian's feelings I'm adding both for your viewing delight!

 

 

Oh Christian! You make this American, Psycho!!!!!!!

Kenneth Branaugh

Kenneth, Kenneth. I don't know wherefore your mama named you Kenneth, but I do know a rose called by your name would indeed be sweeter.  I'm not sure if Shakespeare really was gay, but I'm pretty sure he'd be gay for you!

Billy Idol

All the reasons I love the '80's can be wrapped in one phrase" Rock the Cradle of Love". I'll never forget seeing that video on VH-1 was the first time I realized I love rock music- and Billy Idol. With 29 years between us, Billy, you can most certainly rock my---well, that'll just sound so wrong! LOL! I love you, Billy! :-P

 Burn Gorman

Yes, ladies. His name....is Burn. And it's more than appropriate. What prophetic parents he must have had, to realize that their little bundle of joy would grow up and melt hearts with his piercing brown eyes. I loved him in BBC's Bleak House mini-series (if you got Netflix, watch it!) and he just so happens to be a musician. He was also born in America. *gasp* Oh no! That's okay, Burn, honey. We forgive you! Lol!

Hugh Grant

This "Four Weddings and a Funeral" Star is just too much man for this All-American girl. I'll admit! I just can't handle the power of that heart-stopping gaze. Oh, thank God none of us were born during the Revolution. If they'd put this hunk in front of the canons, we would have been doomed!!!

Richard Armitage

And speaking of the Revolutionary War, seeing this picture to the left is the first time I ever wished we'd lost! So not fair! So not freakin' fair! Oh, Richard, darling! If you ever want to trade the Union Jack for the Stars and Stripes, the ladies of the US would happily swap you out for this poor imitation. (And we wonder why nobody buys American anymore! *hand to face*)

Oh god! I just can't stand it! I think we need a triple dose of Brit Rich to thoroughly cleanse our visual palates!

*sigh* Ah! There! Now, moving on......

 
Christopher Eccleston


Hey! Why don't we just get the 9th Doctor Who to take us back in time in the TARDIS and set the record straight! That's right, Chris! We are depending upon you! Gawd, what is it with British dudes and their ears?  I just looovvveee those ears. And eyes. And smile. And lips and....oh who am I kidding? If I get stuck in a TARDIS with Christopher Eccleston, I'm never leaving! Revolution be damned!

Rufus Sewell

I have loved this hunk ever since "A Knight's Tale". I think it's that dark hair combined with sexy green eyes. It was one of the only times I think I ever actually sided with a villain in the movie. And oh what a good bad boy you are, Rufus. I love to love ya!

*AND*

Rufus gets double hottie points for thinking about future generations of girls who will be in much need of eye candy with people like Jay-Z and Lil' Wayne having the nerve to breed. That's right, ladies. He procreated. Aw, Rufus! Thanks for letting us know how much you cared! We knew you wouldn't let us down. 

What an absolutely adorable boy!

Last and most certainly not least........

 

Luke Goss

I will never forget the first time I saw him in Blade 2. He was a bloodthirsty, vampiric mess but I still couldn't wait for the credits to roll up so that I could find out what the heck his name was! What an adorable man! I am honestly baffled as to why he isn't as well-known than he could be in the US. He's so talented and easy on the eyes. Just lovely! Oh and there is DOUBLE hottie points for him too! Or should I say quadruple as this Hottie McHot-Hot has an equally steamy twin!



Matt Goss

No you aren't seeing double! You are simply seeing proof that God is real! Hello! Meet Matt Goss! He and Luke actually used to be in a British boy band called Bros. They had lots of hits and Matt still writes songs and sings. With eyes like a clear blue sea and big strong arms to hold you tight, he could sing "Mary Had a Little Lamb" and still top the charts. Thank you Goss boys for being the double dose of yum that a girl needs! Bless your mother's womb!



Well, that's all for now. When ever you're feeling down and tired of dealing with life's little problems, just come back here and dream for a spell. And if you're using a public computer, have the decency to wipe the drool from the key board before you go!

Happy Hump Day!
