Women and Cars: The Blog!

Soooo, I’ve had many actor/rockstar crushes throughout my life, particularly in my preteen years through adolescence. Some were thankfully short lived (the lead singer from Warrant), some were good for the time (Axl Rose, Eddie Vedder) and some have lived on FOREVAH!! Well, really just one.
And that one goregous piece of tush was….Jordan Catalano. As played by Jared Leto, he was the school bad boy/hunk of burning love on one of the best shows ever, My So Called Life!

This entry now takes a turn for the mournful. Sadly, as I ranted earlier this year, Jared the actor has not lived up to the promise of Jordan’s unbelievable early sizzle. He’s gotten weird over the years and is focused on his supposedly silly band, ‘30 Seconds to Mars.’ So, he’s now more of an emo wannabe and maker of bizarre music videos.

Jared, please, I implore you: stick to acting!

Despite all this, nothing will ever negate how HAWT his character was in My So Called Life! As a hormonal 15 year old, I swooned over Jordan Catalano (along with the rest of the world’s female population). Now, as a (still hormonal but more contained) 29 year old, I drool just as hard. If not harder, really, since I know that such hot guys are hard to come by!
How hot was he? How do I count the ways? Was it his angelic blue eyes? His sickeningly clear complexion? His beautifully sloping nose? His amazing, long and silky hair, which I was just dying to run my hands through? As Ricky Vasquez said on the show, I also loved the way he leaned….
They just don’t make them like that anymore. So, if you want to see this piece of heaven, check out some clips of him on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSfFARigW_o. You might want to keep a bucket of water handy to douse yourself after…
