this might create unnecessary oppositions: like Clooney w/pug puppy vs. Varg w/cat

My eldest cat is a fatty pinhead. When she runs for the food bowl she looks like a bullet from Super Mario Galaxy.

And I am here to tell you that although the man's ego would be inflated beyond its already wide dimensions to see this, y'all are NOT WRONG. I mark '92 - '96 as the Hottness Years. My old editor has a certain SHOWER PHOTO by a certain art photographer colleague featuring ALBARNCOCK at half-mast which would melt your heads.
In other tangentially related news, I interviewed a certain supermodel today and she confessed that she'd named her kids' pet rabbit after Justine Frischmann. Can't say *myself* who the model is for a month, but she was basically a fashion avatar for the Frischmann at the time...
― nights of d. cameron (suzy), Thursday, 31 March 2011 19:04 (thirteen years ago) link
suzy i have seen you mention these shower pics before, in fact i was dreaming about them while i was googling for those^^
i have never heard about the half mast part though!
― ☠ (roxymuzak), Thursday, 31 March 2011 20:55 (thirteen years ago) link
also suzy otm, albarn is the kind of hot guy that you could NEVER let on you thought was hot, for ego reasons. if we were friends i would secretly lust after him but constantly take him down a notch w/r/t looks

Except for that one hippie.
Damon, you fancied despite yourself. Brett, completely different story! Fanciable until unclean man-slut rep surfaced but otherwise the attitude to being attractive not too different from Damon.

oh man i was coming here to post this thinking it would be a total non sequitur, but now i see its basically just continuing the conversation we were already having
when i was a kid i had crushed on blur, but i wasn't attracted to the oasis dudes at all (maybe because they came off as dumb/jerks and that was a big turnoff). i never understood liam as a sex symbol. now as an adult, watching this video is like...damn, i *get* it

Basically explains my susceptibility to Britpop in one go.
― Back up the lesbian canoe (Laurel), Thursday, 2 June 2011 02:47 (thirteen years ago) link
See, I follow Justine's assertion that Liam is *photogenic* as all fuck, but that does not necessarily translate into actually being attractive or even good-looking.
I *never* saw the appeal of Albran. Still, to this day, I just don't get it. He's just such a cartoon of a teengirl pinup that he somehow manages to not actually be attractive at all. (This has nothing to do with being on Team James for the entire Britpop years, honest.)
Brett Anderson, however, good lord, Suzy has witnessed first hand the effects that man has on me. (He ate up the attention with a spoon, yes, but in a way that seemed oddly charming rather than as flat out egotistical. Like, if Albran found out someon fancied him, he would lord it over them like an ass, when Anderson found out you fancied him, he would be extra charming and suave just to make you squee a bit harder inside.)

― Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 2 June 2011 09:56 (thirteen years ago) link
(And Patrick Wolf threads. Not that he is a ladyartist, but he probably fits in the remit of this thread, as in "I cannot figure out if he is attractive or not, and this deeply confuses me.")
― Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 2 June 2011 09:57 (thirteen years ago) link
Brett flirts like crazy, this is true - I think it greases the wheels of a certain kind of industry (and he did shag my former editor once so is not above career sex). BTW, Kate, Patrick Wolf is even taller than Brett Anderson! My friend G is in some of PW's videos - she is 6'4" - and I think he is the same size as her (I also sat next to him at an ESM dinner a couple of years ago, where I found out he recruited pen-pals from the classifieds of Select when he was a young teenager). Kate, I'll send you the (admittedly blurry) photo I took of PW at the dinner because he was dressed as the world's biggest sailor boy.
I loathe Oasis, but Liam was fantastically good-looking in 1994, when we stood next to each other at the final Richey Manic MSPs gig and I had to just deal with him actually being HOT. He was clearly tripping, because he started stroking my fake fur coat (he was wearing a black one, mine was white) and trying to have a staring competition. It was a bit like experiencing Peter O'Toole's wild-eyed NO PRISONERS thing from Lawrence of Arabia for real and thus I was left a bit conflicted and drooly.
As to Damon - guilty as Kate has charged. He's more of a pigtail-puller than Brett.
― chavatar (suzy), Thursday, 2 June 2011 10:27 (thirteen years ago) link
Is he taller than Simon Bookish, is what I want to know. Have never seen those two in a room together, despite Kristian's habit of surrounding himself with incredibly beautiful but unbelievably tall young men, each taller and prettier and more avante guarde than the last. (well, excepting Hilton Betelgeuse of course)
Have much trouble fancying him, mostly due to incredibly unsavoury tales told to me by a lady writer and editor of both our acquaintances... But. I certainly appreciate his styling, his outfits, his hairdoes, his endless presentation of *himself*, his body, etc. to the Gaze. The man seems a walking essay for Filament Magazine in many many ways, which I find appealing. And yet, I do not like his nose, I find something ... sulky? sullen? schoolboyish in a bad way? about his face which stops me from actually finding him *attractive* though I can certainly admit that he is handsome (or pretty, or photogenic, or whatever)
Thing is, I like him as *pop star* and certainly appreciate his musical output, but I like him as an untouchable archetypical figure, not someone who is too intimately connected to a world I used to inhabit. That makes me uncomfortable, but I suppose it's unavoidable in London. It's complicated.
