Introducing: SUPERMODEL SATURDAY WITH LIZ!
A funny thing happened to me this morning kids. I woke to find an email in my inbox from my intrepid and beloved Tri-Destiny publisher with full print files for all three Stewart Realty books. I got the requisite chill reading down through the reviews, the title page, the dedications and then, because it was the first file I opened, I started reading Sweat Equity (book 2 in the series and the one that ruffled the most feathers and got the most rave reviews including a Gold Star from Just Erotic Romance Reviews).
Yep, I read that sucker cover to cover, without my usual eye towards "oh hell there's repetition" or "damn that sentence sucked" or even "wow, I can't believe I got away with that."
No. I enjoyed it.
It got me all hot 'n bothered about my uber-hero Jack Gordon. Which in turn made me wanna see the living breathing epitome of him (only with a Brit accent): one Super Model Fitness Perfection in a Suit or Out of One--DAVID GANDY.
I trolled around the inter webs admiring his physical perfection. Found some cute youtube interviews and features and what not. (here is the thing: he cannot act. But who cares?!) And stumbled into a realm of celebrity-hood I kind of never thought about: Male Supermodels.
Mr. Gandy it seems is in a category all his own by now since he gets all the major clothing and men's fragrance jobs including the kick ass Banana Republic one this spring.
And you know this one...hell it was 50 feet high in Times Square. Don't get more supermodel than that I'd say.
He blogs for Vogue talking about fitness (as you would, since your job is looking perfect) and his car obsession (oh god I just had an orgasm, sorry).
He is a serial monogamist and just broke up with singer Mollie something or another who cares earlier this year that means he's single.
After beginning modeling in 2002 winning some kind of discover the next big thing contest in the UK Davey-boy is #6 of "icon guys" on models.com and #7 of "money guys" on the same site, which by the way has given me reason to believe that trends are going in a different direction for male models as the current "trending" top 10 all look like 15 year old dudes who have never seen the inside of a gym. Not my taste.
So This guy...IS my Jack Gordon. He has the look, the body, the attitude (if you listen to his interviews.)
Oh, and he is from Billericay, Essex. I LIVED IN BILLERICAY ESSEX from 2002-2004...about the time he was leaving his job delivering cars for car magazines to become this hottest Effing man thing on two legs as far as I am concerned.
poor Gandy-cakes. Don't worry, Liz will comfort you....
Now, this is an ongoing series. That means I cannot Gandy-obsess every week. But I am creating a Gandy-Scale of perfection and will feature another delicious slice of man pie from the models.com "icons" list every Saturday. He gets ranked against My Boy David. We shall meet some new lovely man-meat each week, and you can decide for yourselves how he stacks up.
I leave you with a little video that, if you are like me, will watch over and over until the other people in your house yell STOP PLAYING THAT SONG ALREADY!!!
