The Superbowl is just around the corner, with the New York Giants facing off against the New England Patriots, I thought it would make sense to highlight a hottie from one of the teams. The forecast called for Steve Weatherford, a punter for the New York Giants. He’s 29-years old, standing at 6’3″ and is solid muscle. In the past, he has played for the New Orleans Saints, Kansas City Chiefs, Jacksonville Jaguars and the New York Jets.

As evident by the tattoo across his chest, Weatherford is married to his wife Laura. They have a son, Ace, and a daughter, Carney. It recently came to everyone’s attention that he’s one of the few players that wears his wedding ring while he plays. “I love my wife but that’s not the reason I wear it in games,” Weatherford said earlier this week. “It’s about comfort. I wear it during all my offseason workouts so I just keep it on during the games too. It would feel strange without it.”

Check out some hot pictures of Weatherford below. He certainly has motivated me to hit the gym tomorrow!

Earlier this week, we filmed our first episode for our “Homorazzi” info-tainment show on OUTtv. Given that it’s brand new, expect the show to evolve as we go along and also be prepared to see different faces joining the discussion from time to time. Also, although we had rehearsed together many times before, this was the first time in front of the camera so be gentle.

With a panel of four Homorazzi cast members (Patrick, Nic, Tommy, and Adam), in our first episode, the boys bring Homorazzi.com to life by discussing the latest gossip, Oscar nominations, American Idol, and more. Outside of entertainment and gossip, they also talked about Washington State having the votes to pass gay marriage, as well as Cynthia Nixon‘s comments on her “choosing” to be gay.

Holy smokes and good reading Batman! It has been a while since I have picked up a piece of literature that has truly knocked my socks off, and shattered my imagine into a million little pieces, where I was left scrambling to pick them all up again, sockless! This past holiday I received an exceptional amount of books as gifts, including The Shadow of the Wind from my good friend and fellow cast member, Stephen. While he hasn’t written for the site in a while, he’s still good and active at providing me great books to add to my ever-expanding library. The Shadow of the Wind by Spanish writer, Carlos Ruiz Zafon, fits in perfectly, right next to the other books that round out my top twenty favourites. Trust me, one year I will definitely do a recap of my all-time bests!

If you aren’t familiar with the story, then I really hope my stripped down version won’t ruin it for you, as I often admit I am horrible at revealing a base plotline without giving away a pivotal moment. If you are familiar, then I beg your forgiveness and encourage you to jump ahead in the review. The book opens to the life of the protagonist, a boy named Daniel (naturally), who is lead into a library by his father, aptly called the Cemetery of Forgotten Books. The tradition passed down by his father allowed Daniel to select one of the sacred books to take from the endless stacks as his own, and to protect it forever. Little did Daniel know that the book he selected that day would change his life, and those around him, forever. Honestly, just re-reading those last few sentences makes me want to read the story all over again!

A little late in posting, sorry about that folks, but I was so taken aback by the actual appearance of talent in the most recent foray into Texas tunes that I had to sit in astonishment most of today!

Where Aspen was the city that taste and talent forgot, it was proven last night that definitely everything IS bigger (and better!) in Texas! Even the judges themselves seemed to be more/actually aware of the true singers they had in front of them this time around and weren’t just passing out golden tickets like so many 5cent candies.

What I take from this experience is (sorry Nowheresville) that Idol REALLY needs to hit the big cities more often. While I love San D and the hills of Colorado, those aren’t place you go to for talent: those are places you go to drink ;)

Last night, Donovan and I popped in to the Scotiabank Theatre in Vancouver to check out the NABS screening of the 2011 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creative. Each year bronze, silver and gold Lions are handed out to advertising agencies and their client’s around the world for the innovative, moving and often giggle-inducing commercials used throughout 2011 to capture their customer’s attention. In addition, one campaign strategy is awarded the prestigious award of Grand Prix of the festival; the epitome of advertising awards for the best concept of the year.

Each year I’m often pleasantly surprised by the event as I truly enjoy advertising, love me some commercials and get a huge kick from seeing creative from around the world. There were over 20,000 submissions into this year’s festival and we were honored to catch some of the best from each of the winning categories. I’ll admit, this year didn’t have the glam of last year’s event at the VanCity Theatre; however, the NABS organizers did a great job with the venue and keeping people entertained throughout the night.

The following is a small selection of the winners that Donovan and I truly felt stood out above the rest…or those that we thought were too funny not to share…

Earlier this week Kelly Rowland debuted her “Keep It Between Us” music video and now she’s back with another tasty treat. This time the 30-year-old singer provides guest vocals for Sean Paul’s new track from his new album, “Tomahawk Technique“. Lately, we’ve heard Rowland on pop tracks, club anthems and R&B grooves. Now she’s giving us a little island flavor in form of a dancehall track and me likey.

“How Deep Is Your Love” sounds very similar to Sean Paul’s lead cut off his latest album, “Got 2 Luv U“. That track featured Alexis Jordan but stalled at No. 84 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, but was a huge hit in international markets including Germany and Austria. With Kelly Rowland possessing more star wattage than Jordan, the mid-tempo breezy track might have a better shot at becoming a hit. Produced by Stargate and penned by Ester Dean, “How Deep Is Your Love” certainly has the potential. Only time and, more importantly, radio stations will determine that. Check it out below.

They’re almost here! The Real Housewives of Vancouver will be the third Real Housewives show from the West Coast and the first to be filmed in Canada. How do you think they’ll compare to the Housewives from Beverly Hills and Orange County? The word on the street is that this show is gonna be amazeballs and filled with drama. I can’t wait until it premieres later this spring on Slice.

The first teaser for the series was released today, certainly wetting our appetite for the delicious drama (topped with organic strawberries and maple syrup of course) that is about to be dished and “Slice‘d” up for us. The cast has yet to be officially revealed and those involved in the show have been very tight lipped about it. With the series commencing soon, expect an official announcement to be coming very soon.

Let the Glee news just keep on coming. Already this morning, I’ve given you a few teasers of what we can expect from the show’s upcoming Michael Jackson tribute. But another exciting piece of casting news has come out from the network that is sure to get all the Gleeks and of course, Glee’s gay fan base all hot and bothered.

So far, we have only met a selected few of the kids’ parents and family members. With the announcement of Rachel Berry’s gay dads being cast, it was only a matter of time before more family members started popping into frame. Now, it looks like former-Warbler, now New Direction member Blaine (played by Darren Criss will be getting some family love of his own. But who is it?

Find out who’s playing Blaine’s older brother after the jump.
