Channing Tatum, born Channing Bryan Isaac Tatum Anderson, on 20 April 1980 in Cullman, Alabama, is an actor and model. Channing Tatum, an image that represents the new generation of hip and urban sensation is taking over America by surprise. A face with well defined jaw-line, a clean shaven head, and a race car dive that is full of energy and edginess in the Mountain Dew commercial 2002 give Channing all the attention that he can handle.
Channing is a southern boy born in Alabama. He was oldest of eight children in an affluent family in Alabama that moved to South Dakota. He was shipped off to a boarding school in 9th grade. At the age of six, his family moved to Mississippi where he had many fun memories of his childhood. Channing still spends his summer time with his grandparents back in Alabama to constantly remind himself of his roots. Due to Channing’s tough and sometimes troublesome boyish nature, his parents sent him to a military school in grade nine.
Channing’s love for football and his athleticism eventually won him an athletic scholarship to play college football in West Virginia. His college football career didn’t turn out to be promising, which ended with Channing dropping out of school. Thereafter, Channing had worked for a pet nursery, in construction, as a mortgage broker, and at the cologne counter and clothing store. Channing’s first experience with the entertainment industry came when he was cast in Ricky Martin’s video “She Bangs”. He plays a kid with the platinum Mohawk.
While he was still getting over his platinum hair, a model friend in Miami introduced him to some local agencies, where he moved to and started his modeling career. Channing’s initial reaction to modeling was not so optimistic. Instead, his aspiration was to be an actor. After a period of struggles, Channing’s pictures were sent to Jason Kanner, a New York City modeling agent at Major Models. Jason persuaded Channing to move to New York to advance his career in the print world. Channing has since been seen on the pages of Vogue Magazine, the cover of Out magazine, Citizen K, Contents, Elegance Magazine, and NY Times Fashion’s insert, and he was one of the Tear Sheet Magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful faces (October 2001).
Channing has worked extensively in Paris, Milan and New York in various campaigns such as Nautica, Abercrombie and Fitch, American Eagle and Emporio Armani. Channing can be seen in television commercials as well, such as Pepsi (“Scratching”), American Eagle, and of course Mountain Dew (“Drive”).
Besides all the obvious that Channing has to offer, his personality and financial independence are well praised by the people he has worked with.
“Channing Tatum was a pleasure from day one,” are the strong words from the president of Paige Parks modeling agency.
His versatility and the ability to be self-dependent give his agencies the freedom and power to manage his career at even higher level.
Tatum stands 6′ 1-1/2″ tall, and is a true Tauran — “kind of animalistic,” as he later confides. Part native American, part Irish and part French, he has all the pride, charm and passion that ancestry implies. What’s clear is that he’s going places, fast. But it all began where he was born, in a tiny little town just outside of Montgomery, Alabama, called Culman.
Tatum has branched out into a professional acting career, first appearing in a 2004 episode of CSI: Miami. His first feature film role was in 2005’s high-school drama, Coach Carter, playing Jason Lyle, a basketball player opposite Samuel L. Jackson; Tatum also appeared in Twista’s “Hope” music video, which accompanied the film. In the same year, Tatum had an uncredited bit role in War of the Worlds, as well as supporting parts in the films Supercross and Havoc. Although Tatum has said that he “loves modeling”, he has taken a break from the profession to concentrate on his acting career, saying that he prefers making movies.
Tatum unsuccessfully auditioned for a role in X-Men: The Last Stand. The film’s producer, Lauren Shuler Donner, noticed Tatum and cast him in the film She’s the Man, where he plays the love interest of a character played by Amanda Bynes. The film opened on March 17, 2006.
Tatum’s next role will be in director Kimberly Peirce’s Stop-Loss, about a soldier returning home from the Iraq War.
This DHL package goes out to Dan. Now say you love us even morerer.
Alexandre Despatie (born June 8, 1985 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada) is a French Canadian diver. He began diving at age five (in his own backyard pool), and in the 2000 Summer Olympics finished in 4th place in the 10 metre platform.
Alexandre first came to public attention at the 1998 Commonwealth Games with an extremely impressive gold medal on the 10 metre platform (which included an unprecedented score of perfect 10s). He was only 13 years old at the time, and the achievement was recorded in the Guinness Book Of World Records 2000.
Despatie successfully defended his three-metre springboard title at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, again winning a gold medal.
Despatie has a sponsorship agreement with McDonald’s, and acts as an “ambassador”, doing television advertisements and personal apperances.

Dean and Dan Caten may well be the gayest of the gay fashion designers working in Milan right now, these former badboy club kids own one of the the hottest! fashion labels going Dsquared. Their latest show dressed a posse of bunkhouse boys in the twins’ trademark low-slung denims and second-skin shirts. The heavy-on-the-cojones swagger needed to master all those dropped crotches did indeed suggest that Dsquared’s rough riders had just dismounted after days in the saddle. One cowboy felt compelled to strip for a sponge bath. And that wasn’t the only hint of Deadwood. A leather apron looked ideal for the town blacksmith. A pristine white suit was tailor-made for the local preacher. And the toothpick-chewin’ models had an ornery nonchalance that suggested that the Catens could probably elicit a convincing performance from a piece of…well, dead wood. The Western theme was carried through in tiny waistcoats (one was merely a denim bib, another carried Indian embroidery on washed suede), a floral poplin shirt, waxed leathers and, of course, cowboy hats and boots. And though the evening looks—shantung trousers and bugle-beaded shirts—seemed to break with the frontier spirit, their all-blackness had a villainous glamour that would have worked a wonder for Lee Van Cleef, the original man in black.
Ewwww. Can you smell that stale whiff!?

Multi-talented and beautiful is Jamie Dornan. His handsome face and chiseled body have been spotted on the billboards of Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger ads worldwide. This 23, Irish born, 6ft’, brown hair, blue-eyed stunner is making his rounds as a successful model and aspiring actor and musician.
Jamie’s international profile soared once the media revealed he was dating British actress Keira Knightley. As of now, he’s being linked to Sienna Miller. Is that a collective sigh of disappointed we’re hearing all of the sudden? Aw shucks! Well, you can always see him in his first feature film that is still in production, Marie-Antoinette, starring alongside Kirsten Dunst. He’s also in a band named “Sons of Jim”. Model, singer, actor, could he get any hotter? Damn, some guys have it all!
Some of Jamie’s other modeling campaigns include Armani Exchange, Asprey Limehouse and John Richmond. He’s also been featured in GQ Magazine.
Ooh, what a hartthrob! Can we run our cute lil noses against that, Josh?

In keeping with the QC mandate of offering up all things queer and beautiful we offer up Parris Taylor, while we don’t know if he’s queer he sure fits the bill about being beautiful. Those lips, and those eyes, wow, have us wondering if the personality is as beautiful as he is.
Anyways as usual the stats are the thing, so height-6.05 ft, chest-38, waist-30, shoes-10.5, eyes-the soft color of dewy grass in the summer…oh yes, sorry there, we lost ourselves umm green, green eyes. Parris is with the jetset crowd at STORM MODELS, home his buddy Lucas Kerr as well. I see Parris, I see France, we want Parris in our underpants…
Named one of People Magazine’s 50 Most Hottest Bachelors in 2004, James Franco, is making his way in Hollywood. This hot Palo, Alto, California native made his Hollywood debut in the short lived sitcom, but cult hit, “Freaks and Geeks”, and later went on to win a Golden Globe for his portrayal of James Dean in the 2001 TNT made for T.V. movie. His most memorable work to date is the character he plays in Spider-Man, Harry Osborne.
In his spare time James like to paint. He has his own production company, went by the name Ted and was voted “Best Smile” at his high school. His dark, seductive sultry looks could charm the pants off of anyone. He can charm the pants off us anytime!
As what Colin Farrell had earlier said about his co-star from Hart’s War, Bruce Willis – Numero Uno!

In our recent post of Maggie Q and Andy Roddick, many of you weren’t acquainted with Hong Kong starlet Edison Chen who was also seen at the event. So we’ve decided to put together a little something for you today!
Edison Chen (陳冠希; pronounced in Madarin: Chén Gūanxī ; Cantonese: Chan Kwoon Hei) (born October 7, 1980 in Vancouver, Canada) is a popular Hong Kong teen idol. He was an artist of the Emperor Entertainment Group (contract ended in year 2005). Chen is of Chinese descent on both sides but his father also has ¼ Portuguese ancestry, that makes his father Macanese.
Born in Vancouver, Canada, Edison has starred in many films including Infernal Affairs II and Twins Effect. He also sings Cantopop and can speak English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Japanese. However, as with many foreign-born Chinese, Edison does not have a perfect command of Cantonese or Mandarin. He is idolized for his “cool” attitude and his good looks, though critics cite him as conceited.
Many consider Edison Chen to be the first pop singer who brought hip-hop culture to the Hong Kong music industry. Edison Chen recently starred in a film by Jiang Hu in which his character had to rape a dog as punishment. The scene was actually cut to remove his naked butt!
Bruce Springsteen has won 13 Grammy Awards and has considered becoming a baseball player prior to devoting himself to music. His trademark includes wearing non-descript work clothes while performing on stage. He’s also nicknamed “The Boss”.
Why you must be happy to see us, Boss! And we’ll work for bulge, Boss!
