#331; Occupy the Upper East Side

I’ve been loving the celebrity-watching going on in NYC at the Occupy Wall Street protests – everyone from Rosanne Barr to Lupe Fiasco has showed up (here in Boston we’ve had an impromptu performance by Amanda Palmer and a pep-talk by Cornel West), but one of my favorite responses so far has been from protester Penn Badgley. His ironic, jaded opinion on his line of work just tickled my fancy.

#occupywallstreet – Gossip Girl star Penn Badgley was picketing personally this week. Yep, carrying a sign and all. “I mean, listen, it’s cheesy,” he said, “but I want to do whatever I can. Let’s be honest: I’m on fucking Gossip Girl. It’s absurd that celebrity power is what it is, even on that scale, but, like, use any tool you have, you know?” – Source

#214; taste of the week!

I’ve never really been a big fan of Glee (though I am grateful that the show’s first season brought Journey back to the masses, because the world always needs more Journey), but the show’s latest star to take a big turn has my interest. Darren Criss is a self-proclaimed musical theater dork, proud of his work as a straight man playing a gay role model, and got noticed for playing Harry Potter in A Very Potter Musical online. There are few dorks in this world who also pull of the GQ look as well as this man, and so, in honor of the rumor that he’s officially been promoted to a series regular on Glee, this week’s Tasty is Mr. Blaine Anderson himself. After the jump check out some of his most fun, most colorful, and larger than life photo shoots!

#210; two months worth of Tasty (Nº9)!

I could not believe my eyes when I saw it had been nearly two months since my last Tasty! While I’m still in awe of Seth Meyers and his political wit (because we all know I have a thing for political smarty-pants), I have fully moved on in my Hollywood Crush tastes. It was simple, you see, because True Blood‘s fourth season aired on HBO last Sunday and I have thought of nothing but since catching the premier! While there has been a ton of change in Bon Tomps since last summer’s season 3 finale, I’ll leave the reviewing to those better qualified than I, and instead give you what you really want: awesome photos of our favorite evil/or-is-he? vampire ever, Eric Northman. Aka, today’s Tasty is the versatile and gorgeous Alexander Skarsgård. After the jump, see some of my favorites!
