I don’t believe that females are the only ones that develop “girl crushes” – I’m pretty sure guys suffer from their own manly lovefests as well. Case in point? My husband has a man crush on Tom Hardy, whom I affectionately refer to as his boyfriend. In fact, he smiles like a little school girl whenever the commercial airs for his new film, This Means War (he will also play Bane in the newest installment of Batman – no big). I’m pretty sure if we didn’t have so many other activities buzzing around us lately, he would have made it the focus of a date night. He also made me watch Bronson (an interesting experience to say the least) and basically memorized his workout routines via youtube videos to illustrate to our former personal trainer (which caused them to be incorporated into our own – greeaaaat). It’s all kinda cute. Just sayin’.
Happy Hump Day: James Dean
It was time to whip out another vintage hottie for all of you out there, and I figured I’d go with a classic: James Dean. But before I begin, I have a confession to make. I’ve only seen one old film, and that’s only because my hubby basically shoved it down my throat (another confession? I didn’t like the one he made me watch. It was Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Go at it. Lynch me.), so I’ve never actually seen Jimmy Dean in action. I’m serious. But he just sprang out to me in all the photos I saw – he was so beautiful and mysterious. Those bad boys…they always find a special place in my heart.

Happy Hump Day: Bradley Cooper
This is another reader freebie for you all – think of it as an early Christmas gift! Despite being crowned the Sexiest Man Alive by People magazine, Bradley Cooper just doesn’t do it for me. Sure, he has that Ken doll, rugged masculinity going for him, but I think he’s just too pretty and too perfect. Could that ever be a problem? I guess I just like my men a little flawed. But I can’t deny that he looks wonderful with minimal clothes on and that he’s a pretty amazing actor. Although I haven’t seen Limitless, I’ve heard it’s fantastic, and I (along with the rest of America) loved him in the Hangover films, but my absolute favorite Cooper role has to be Wet Hot American Summer. Oh yes.
Happy Hump Day: Hugh Grant
My friend used to pose a question to all girls he met, “Ewan McGregor or Hugh Grant?” He believed that this would lend some insight into their personality, but eventually became a source of frustration. Why, you ask? Well, because he realized every single girl he encountered would reply with Hugh Grant. He just couldn’t understand why. I always told him that it was his boyish charm that won us ladies over (despite that pesky arrest for lewd behavior). Since those college days, he has moved out of Florida and we don’t keep in touch steadily, but I do wonder if he ever met a girl that replied Ewan.
Since you all know what I answered, what would you?
