Caution - Dirty Old Lady Ahead

I took my kids to see She's the Man this afternoon... this loose adaptation of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night stars Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum.

Ok. Channing Tatum? Lamest name ever.

Channing Tatum? Super. Boy. Hunk.

I like like him. I want to make out with him. I want him to take me to the prom and I am going to practice writing: Kristin Tatum tonight with my puffy pink pen.

How fucking wrong is it to sit in a movie with your children and giggle like a schoolgirl every time a 26 year old takes off his shirt?

I feel the shame.

Please tell me I am not the only one who is starting to oogle the young boys... I mean, I have been DEVOTED to Colin Firth and Hugh Grant (despite Divine Brown) and omg, yummy, yummy, Jeremey Northam for ages... what has happened to turn make this twenty something pretty boy turn my head?

Am I morphing into a Real Housewife of Orange County?

I swear to God, you must be my twin since I have a big thing for both Hugh and Colin. I must check out Channing right away...

and I must meet you sometime..we can swoon together.

Although I can't imagine moaning "Channing, Channing," in a moment of lust. We have to do something about that.

His name sounds like a verb.

Kristin said...

I fixed the link to my boy-crush... click and drool...

Kristin said...

Jen, I agree, "Channing" doesn't moan well... perhaps we could settle for "yeah, baby"...

Pollyanna said...

Oh yeah, you're right, he is CUTE. Very cute. Um, I have crushes on some younguns myself, but can't remember thier names. NOW, if that doesn't make me old, nothing will. (hahahha)

thank you for visiting my blog by the way! i LOVE your blog. You're cute and I like your writing. :)

Jen R. said...

On second thought, with that chest, I might be able to mutter a Channing or two...and make it through without a problem...

Jeff said...

At least he's legal.

well, i have to say- he is damn hot.

I'd be giggling too. Then again, I am the same age as him.

Stephanie said...

Ohh, Jeremy Northam, Hugh Grant, Colin Firth. You have the same tastes as me. I MUST check out Channing Tatum.

Oh, and who cares how old they are, it's just a fantasy, right?

wopanese said...

You were a nude model? Damn, so sexy!

Pollyanna said...

HEY! I thought of a youngster I lust after....that kid who played Dino on that cancelled abc drama. "life as we know it" Sean Farris. He was also in "yours/mine/ours". he looks like a young Tom Cruise, and that's a very very good thing. :)

Amanda said...

Kristin said...

Chicky Chicky Baby said...

Okay, after viewing that gorgeous specimen of yumminess I believe you have every right to giggle like a 12-year old school girl each and everytime you see him on the big screen... or your computer screen. Great link. Thanks!

I don't know about the young boys, but I have to admit Hilary and Haylie Duff have been a guilty pleasure of mine for the past couple of years.

M3 said...

OK, am having a hard time typing here because I am laughing so hard. When I clicked on the Channing link I gasped out loud he was so effing good looking. Oh man. In fact I'm going to wrap this up because I need to go take another peek.

*slurp*

That's hilarious! I agree- what kind of name is Channing. Maybe, and this is a big maybe, if you switched his names around- Tatum Channing, it would work. But still, I dunno . . .

Anonymous said...

I've seen it too, and yes he is hot. Another one I like is on some stupid show on the WB, supernatural. I havent't seen it, but he is so yummy that I'd watch it, if my hubby wouldn't bitch so loudly.

Jenn said...

I was like...hmm who is Channing Tatum? I clicked (I happened to my at my mom's) and we both were like.....WHOA!! OK! He'll do! *drool* Then my mom asked me to tell you that she'd giggle like a school girl and she's 58. LOL

Kim M. said...

He's hot!!

I have a crush on Drake from Drake and Josh. I can't wait to watch that show with kids while I'm making dinner. Oh and he can sing too!

rubyiscoming said...

Listen, lady. Us old married folks gots to get our thrills somewhere, right?? I say oogle away at every hottie out there. But, alas, I too am clamoring for more, more, MORE of Colin Firth.

rubyiscoming said...

Seriously, though. What has happened to names??? Where did the Johns, Bills, Sams of the world go? They have all been replaced by Morgans and Channings....for the love of Pete (another missing name from Americana today), who in the hell came up with CHANNING!? What would have happened to the poor chap if he wasn't so hot? what if he had acne, liked reading comic books and was allergic to the sun? Uh, yeah, he woulda been beat up every day of his poor, pathetic public school life.
