A lost opportunity perhaps, but I haven’t been minding much of the World Cup games that have gone on, aside from the one that took place near Boston on our recent BroSox Adventure. That may change with this crowning of Erling Haaland as Dazzler of the Day. Playing for Norway, Haaland has captured the hearts of many with his golden mane of flowing hair and washboard abs. Is there another point to this game?
Actor, comedian, and most decidedly NOT a piece of shit based solely on his own website, Evan Mulrooney handily gets crowned Dazzler of the Day for that clarification alone. His work on ‘Only Murders In The Building’, ‘Fargo‘, ‘Justified: City Primeval‘, and ‘South Side‘ – along with his social media hilarity – have righty made him a star. Coupled with his good looks and the build of a former football player, Mulrooney has made an enviable splash in the entertainment world. Watch his Insta space for good things to come.
Part of the dazzlingly-reimagined ‘Cats: The Jellicle Ball’ reinvigoration currently back on the prowl on Broadway, Sydney James Harcourt earns his first Dazzler of the Day crowning thanks to his charismatic portrayal of Rum Tum Tugger. No stranger to the treading and tearing up the boards, Harcourt has also been in ‘Hamilton‘ and ‘The Lion King’, ‘Girl From the North Country’ and ‘American Idiot’.
Harry Styles has been pumping out his disco-lite hits from his latest album ‘Kiss All the Time’ while donning short-shorts and tanks and pulling out all the funky stops. He’s tantalized the world before and gotten buck naked in movies as evidenced here and not-quite-here. Enjoy the moves, enjoy the music, enjoy the Styles.
Born all the way up and over in Alaska, Charles Melton has made the perilous journey from male model to actor with deft aplomb and sure footing, something not many models are able to accomplish. With notable roles on ‘Glee’ and ‘American Horror Story’, Melton earned his finest accolades from his role in ‘May December’ – and today he can add Dazzler of the Day to his impressive resume.
Opening the new month with a full-frontal spread by Harry Styles wasn’t on anyone’s radar, but here we are and who are we to deny the people what they want?
Freshly celebrating his ‘Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally‘ album, Styles has given us a scintillating new era, with new images and exciting sounds, expanding his sonic landscape to include some flourishes of disco while retaining his signature Styles style. As for the full-frontal pics, keep scrolling, scrolling, scrolling… and going down, down, down…
Thought I have yet to encounter anyone who truly enjoyed the recent ‘Wuthering Heights’ adaptation, I know plenty of people who appreciate a shirtless view of Jacob Elordi.
Fresh off his Oscar-winning performance in the should-have-been-Academy-Award-winning-film ‘Sinners’, Michael B. Jordan fulfills a long-promised crowning as Dazzler of the Day first so salaciously teased about in this scintillating post. It’s been a long time coming, as this tease will also attest.
Playing JFK Jr. at the height of his sexiness is no easy feat, but Paul Anthony Kelly fills out his boxer briefs and biker shorts with admirable appendage and aplomb. While I haven’t gotten into the latest ‘Love Story’ from Ryan Murphy, all one really needs to get the gist of that romp is a couple of these GIFs. Some of us already went through the 90’s in messy fashion and have no need or desire to do it all over again. Still, Paul Anthony Kelly provides more than ample eye candy, warranting this Dazzler of the Day.
Sometimes the strongest and most powerful voices come from the prettiest packages – and when that happens it often results in the crowning of a new Dazzler of the Day. Introducing the amazing Thoren ‘Thor’ Bradley, who has gained a prominent and substantial social media thanks to his combination of fitness, wood-chopping, intelligent discourse, and inclusive championing for all people. A recent post of his particularly moved me, especially in light of the boorish and barbaric behavior of the US Men’s Hockey Team. When white cis men who look like Bradley speak truth about and against centuries of patriarchy, it’s a huge help. Glad there are noble humans still out there to restore a little faith in humanity. For that reason alone, he earns his first Dazzler of the Day.
“My heart goes out to all the daughters, wives and girlfriends in the United State…who have faced the harsh realization that a man in their life is so spineless in the face of clear injustice… that they can’t even form a fucking opinion in private. I’m not even talking about speaking out in public. I know he’ll never have your respect again and I know that must be a lonely feeling. Rest assured you are not wrong. That isn’t normal.” – Thoren Bradley
I love a hairpin turn in one’s career trajectory, and no one has zigged harder of late than Davey Wavey, who went from his popular YouTube and social media impresario role (and some incendiary adult entertainment work) to owning the Frog Meadow Bed & Breakfast in Vermont. Innkeepers Jeremiah and Zac will run the property, but Davey’s hands are already all over the place. The relaxed drama-free atmosphere that has made Frog Meadow such a beloved destination for many years doesn’t look to end, and Davey promises the heart and soul of what is considered sacred space to many will remain untouched and unchanged.
Maintaining and building on the vision of original founders Scott Heller and Dave King, Davey intends to honor the legacy of what they created: a place for the soul to be nurtured. In looking ahead, he also plans on working on the singular item of most interest and obsession for me: a signature fragrance. To that end, and the future of Frog Meadow, Davey earns this Dazzler of the Day for the very first time.
With his record-breaking six gold medal wins at the Winter Olympics, Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo earns the culminating Dazzler of the Day to this year’s Olympic Games. He helped Norway climb to the most gold medals of the entire Winter Olympics, an impressive feat to close out the games as we prepare to recap the glorious event in tonight’s upcoming blog post.
The Bad Bunny show got all the glory last night, no mean feat in this Olympic season, and here we are, already over a week into the blessedly short month of February. Despite the madness of a recent full moon, we are making good headway through winter. In honor of not delaying things, let’s hurry on with this weekly recap, featuring Bad Bunny once again in his Calvin Klein briefs…
